It also depends on how upgraded your heroes are. If we are talking about starting power, the best heroes in Injustice 2 at the moment are Robin King, Deathstroke, Shazam (Fury of the Gods), and Raven. Robin King is currently the only character with a Threat level over 8,000. He also has some great passives, like Fog of Carnage which disables opponents’ specials and supermoves.
