[QUOTE=Derek Metaltron;5097383]Which members do you think are most likely? Clearly Harley and Deadshot seems inevitable and assuming that the Arkham connection is there I suppose Bronze Tiger and Deathstroke makes sense too...[/QUOTE]
The rumor is it's going to be the movie roster + Cheetah. At least for the base roster.
Given it'll be a squad-based, GAS, game, I think they'll have characters that can fulfill certain classes, like sniper, close-combat fighter, tank, and support.

He did Deathstroke in TTG to the Movies.

If the rumors are true, then Cheetah should fill that role pretty easily. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]Unless they job her like they always do. Ugh.[/COLOR]

When has Cheetah ever been a powerhouse?

I'm not seeing powerhouse in any of these. Agile, cunning, resourceful yes but not powerhouse.

If your definition of powerhouse is muscles and bulk, then sure. But this is a woman whose strength is on par with Wonder Woman's.

Deadlocks with Wonder Woman in a test of strength, a tug-o-war.
None of those feats are speed, cunning, agility, etc.
I think a lot of people think Cheetah is just a speedster ... she's been on par with Superman/Wonder Woman for decades ...

For a videogame I dont think you want your powerhouse tank to also play like a agile rogue/speedster though. If that game has a powerhouse tank type player im willing to bet its someone who would fit the playtype better. Kingshark, Grundy, Zod/Faora, Black Adam or Bizarro. Even people like Bane or Killer Croc if they are given strength boosts. But i don't think they gonna have the powerhouse character move the way Cheetah should.

Was kinda disappointed this wasn't covered more in this thread. Great of you to bring this up.
Rocksteady is a studio like any other in the gaming industry unfortunately.
Hopefully they're working to resolve these issues and improve their working conditions, especially for women. I think I read somewhere they sent a letter out to employees that they were looking to address the problems.
