It is not always best to let the fists do the talking when in combat, and in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, players can always choose to fight from a distance by using Deadshot, the right man for the job. Able to take down his foes with all manner of firearms, this is one deadly combatant when used the right way.

Stacked up against the other three playable characters in Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, Deadshot offers plenty of maneuverability and firepower at his disposal. If Floyd Lawton is your chosen member of Task Force X to bring down the rogue superheroes, then knowing the best Deadshot build will make your adventures that much easier.

Both the Talents and the gear involved will allow players to leverage Deadshot's ability to deal out high damage using Critical Hits. This is made better by the fact that you can stay airborne longer and avoid ground confrontation, and being buffed at the same time for staying out of harm's way. And when things get too rowdy, make use of the Traversal Attack to reduce the enemy numbers in quick succession.

Black Mask's Bulletstorm is one of the best weapons in the game. For the sniper rifle variant, Deadshot can wield it better than most, with enhanced damage and a great way to start fights. Once up close, players can switch to the Free Refills SMG to rack up those Critical Hits to finish off any stragglers, while the ability of instant reloads will see your damage output become nonstop. Toss in a Paint Bomb grenade whenever you feel like it, and watch the Critical Damage go even higher thanks to its accumulative bonus for every enemy hit.
