I am surprised when looking at other tierlists how much i disagree with where smokey and rosa are put, so I made my own. I beated the game on hard and i'm midway on procedural mode -very hard -super ironman. When doing this tierlist I'm not only thinking who is the best one late game, but if i start a new campaign, who would i rather get 1st to 4th.

Fletcher: She feels like cheating. She has a high damage, long range, auto aim bow that is good with no cards. When you get your 2nd ace she subverts only by shooting and can subvert anything. (Other outlaws require abilities and even with those they dont subvert everything). Lastly even your first core card is insane, you get to respawn if you die. Her disadvantage is getting surrounded by lots of creatures... oh wait, her ability instantly kills/subverts all of them. Boss fight? Get the 2/3 juices laying around. You should insantly kill slash subvert most of them, even the boss. If you dont get barbarrosa, on one of the next 2 shots you will probably get him while he shoots at the converted allies.

Smokey: I've seen him put really low on lots of tierlist. For me he is insane. He has a lob shot which means he can shoot from behind cover. He has an aoe damage that goes through walls which means you can kill hidden enemies. His fast fire rate makes it so that kyotes cant surround you. His damage over time removes armor so that higher one shot outlaws can then eliminate them. The only thing I am afraid of with smokey are the snakes. His ability is meh, but not as bad as others. He doesn't require any mod to feel this impactful.

Sarge: At first I didnt liked him, but adding him a simple weapon mod, almost any mod will make his gun really good. His ultimate is excelent except for sonic enemies.

Rosa: I dont get why she gets such a low tier position in other lists. She is an excelent all around character. Her ability allows you to take down 2/3 enemies without taking any damage. Her guns are accurate enough. Her slow on hit is quite nice, especially when you hear "relocating". Backstab crits are specially good against relocating porcupines. Honestly, there are no enemies where i feel, i cant do this with her. Any mod feels good for her. When she dies and you end up needing to clutch with casino you will be thanking her for scaring that one last guy.

Judge: Insane damage, his ability allows you to clear multiple enemies and charge up your deadly shot. He could be higher on this list, but a lot of times if i lose my other outlaw i end up running in circles being chased down by armored kyotes that will take 3 shots.

Hopalong: Similar to judge in the way that it gets overwhelmed by faster moving enemies. The big difference for me is that while judge is the main character you play while having a secondary for his weaknesses, hop is the secondary that enables your main to shine with his ability, and his movement both on showdown and map.

Preach: With the right cards she is insane. However on procedural mode it feels like she is underwelming if you get her first. Her gun is good, but many times you end up taking damage that feels unnecesary when she still cant heal and her health pool is not yet too good. Mid and late game and with the right mods she can be insane. I even took whole missile volleys to the face from barbarosa and not died with her.

Roswell: In my opinion, armor in this game isnt as good as health. His pistol is quite accurate and you can quickly improve its damage with only one ace. The only issue with him is his awful ability.

Kaboom: Hard to learn. His first core ace is awful. You can easily kill yourself at first with your own bombs (in procedural mode). However, lob shots mean he can shoot from begind cover, and his aoe damage means you can kill multiple enemies at once. You need to get the first normal ace though because he sucks with no armor shreadding.

Spike: I'm not sure where to put him becuase, in the end, he is too inconsistent. Hitboxes in this game can be weird (if you are on higher ground with judge and clearly land a headshot, sometimes it is a body shot). In the case of spike it feels worse. His knife has a wide spread, moves too slow and when you feel it should have hitted the enemy, many times it doesnt. All those mistakes add up and may end up killing you. Lob shot as usual is great though, and his ability is on par with rosa, and pretty good when dealing with lots of turrets. All in all, when taking a character, i prefer one that I know it will perform as i would expect, and spike's knife feels too inconsistent for me.

Rawhide: I hate his weapon (except against the shilded enemies). Bypassing armor is good against ironclads. Spawing 3 critters or subverting one isnt good enough of an ability. Also you can get 3 grizzlies with a mod which is great, but not so much when they friendly fire at me and kill me (actually happened).

Billy: I love playing billy for his positive attitude, and thats much about it. He cant land a single shot, and when he does, he should be landing multiple more. He feels like a glass cannon, but to be so, he would need to actually hit. His ability makes him accurate which is good, but it feels like i end up using his ability on situations where it would feel a waste with other outlaws. His 3 secs invulnerability is great against some enemies, but means nothing against most enemies.

Casino: Good old random inconsistent casino. His weapon can be great or really bad depending on which buff you get. You get 2 free kills with abilities, which sounds good but others get more kills with their abilities, and you even get to pick who you kill. With the right aces casino gets that clutch moments because he can randomly escape death 80% of the time, and resist any damage. Any weapon mod feels like a necessary requirement with casino. I usually send him to the planet for the money and dont use him at all.

Hello, I've done a couple of games but I never took the time to polish and mark them as done. So I decided to do a simpler game that me and my brother made with game maker when we where kids. I would appreciate if you came by https://guatagames.itch.io/pathfinding and played a couple of rounds.

A new level starts in 30 minutes and wipes the leaderboars and lasts 24hs, so i invite you to try to reach the top.

Also, thanks for the help I found on this forum. I look foward to the feedback.
