Underperforming Characters (January 2025)

This data highlights characters with lower win rates. While many on this list suffer from low pick rates, impacting their win percentages, some stand out: Jeff the Land Shark, Cloak & Dagger, and Venom. The healers lack the unique advantages of other Strategists, and Jeff's upcoming nerf to his Ultimate Attack may further decrease his effectiveness. Venom, the sole tank on the list, excels at absorbing damage but often struggles to deliver the final blow. Fortunately, a Season 1 buff will increase his Ultimate Attack's base damage.
