MCU: All 16 Avengers ranked from weakest to strongest

16. Hawkeye

You’re probably not surprised to see Hawkeye at the bottom of this list. Poor Clint Barton gets a hard time from audiences, mostly because Hawkeye isn’t as well known of a hero as the rest of his MCU warriors, but he is one of the most underrated members of the team. He’s also a pretty great protagonist who shines whenever given the chance (Disney Plus’ Hawkeye series is a perfect example of that).

Nevertheless, he is still the weakest Avenger on the team. There’s no shame in that, because it makes him the most human – and that is a strength in and of itself. A skilled archer, swordsman and marksman, he’s been a loyal SHIELD operative, an Avenger, and even a murderous vigilante, which shows you his range.

Clint is essentially the Avengers’ answer to Batman. What he lacks in otherworldly powers, he makes up for in skills, tactics, and all around-brains. All it takes is a second for him and the battle is over. Heck, when he became the Ronan, it took less than that.

Hawkeye has also held his own against all kinds of otherworldly threats, including Loki, the Chituari, Ultron, Thanos’ entire army, so if you think he’s weak, you’re wrong.
