Overview
Ratchet is able to play strong at all ranges. The Plasma Striker works as a Sniper Rifle, able to attack safely from a far range, and Lightning Ravager is able to cover close range and start combos. Mr. Zurkon and the Constrcto Pistol are able to shoot mid ranged shots. Tesla Spikes give Ratchet a degree of stage control. Attacks like the Sonic Eruptor are good for attacking crowds. Ratchet is a strong character in all game modes.
