Venom14.65%47.56%
Winter Soldier6.49%47.97%
Wolverine1.95%48.04%

Many characters on this list suffer from low pick rates, impacting their win rate statistics. However, Jeff the Land Shark, Cloak & Dagger, and Venom stand out. Jeff and Cloak & Dagger, both healers, lack the unique abilities of other Strategists. Jeff's upcoming nerf to his Ultimate Attack in Season 2 may further reduce his win rate. Venom, the only tank on this list, excels at absorbing damage but often struggles to deliver the final blow. Fortunately, a Season 1 buff will enhance his Ultimate Attack's base damage.
