Batman Ninja Batman is a Gold Tech-class character and a cornerstone of the Batman Ninja team in Injustice: Gods Among Us Mobile. With his unique passive that thrives when outnumbered and his devastating SP2, he serves as both a tank and a support character. This guide covers his abilities, gear, and team synergy.
Passive: Ninja Rising
Batman Ninja Batman's passive, Ninja Rising, has two components:
Outnumbered Defense
When his team has fewer surviving members than the opponent, Batman receives:
- 50% damage reduction from all attacks including DOT and Radiation
- Immunity to Life Drain — opponents cannot drain his health
This bonus deactivates if the battle becomes even again. This makes Batman exceptionally durable as the last member standing, capable of clutching victories against multiple opponents.
Team Support
All Batman Ninja teammates gain:
- +20% critical chance — stacks with augments and gear up to 100%
- +50% power generation from critical hits — only affects basic attacks
This passive makes Batman an excellent team player, boosting the entire team's damage output and power generation.
Special Attacks
Piercing Darkness (SP1)
Batman throws flying kunai to strike his opponent, causing bleed damage over time. Key properties:
- Can chain from heavy basic combo or second hit of light combo
- Applies bleed that boosts subsequent special attacks by 20% per stack
- Can apply Claw of Horus gear shatter and gear DOT twice

Way of the Blade (SP2)
Batman disorients the enemy with smoke, then slices them with his katana. This is his signature attack with unique mechanics:
Two rapid swipe minigames:
- Smoke bomb — stuns opponent and deals 3%-6% of damage stat twice
- Katana slice — single hit that benefits from both minigame percentages stacking additively
Damage potential:
- Base damage: 66%-192% of damage stat (vs normal 60%-120%)
- With perfect minigames and gear: over 5 million damage on final hit
- Final hit benefits from bleed damage boost
Usage notes:
- The smoke bomb can chain from heavy basic combo
- Can be blocked if opponent knocks Batman back before the slice
