One of the many murderers you can play as.


5.  BJ


Mr.Blaskowicz, just go home.  You haven’t run into a single Nazi out here.

BJ is one of those champions who can flex between playing defensively and offensively.  His active ability is taken right out of the recent Wolfenstein games, allowing him to pull out a copy of his current weapon, with no drawbacks; he simply gets twice as dangerous.  His passive lets him regenerate health up to the next gate of 25 HP—if he’s at 1 health, he can regen back to 25, 26 to 50, etc.  This regeneration, when combined with the healing blood pools on every map, mean that he can get himself back to full health more easily than just about anyone else in the thick of a fight.

If BJ was more mobile, he’d be competing for the top spot on this list.  Being able to whip out another lightning gun or rocket launcher is devastatingly strong, totally changing the flow of a fight.  Since he can stay healthy for longer than most others, this makes him excellent at either getting that extra bit of damage to make a fight fair or being able to survive just enough more damage to survive.  One of his only noticeable downsides is how obvious it is when his health is low, as his near-death screams of pain are something of an in-joke at this point.

Champion Power Rating:  92/100
