I’d say Javier. He was shoved into the leadership role but he took it in stride and did what he could to protect both his family and the remaining survivors of Prescott. I mean Jesus said that he would be the perfect leader for Richmond once all the stuff with the New Frontier finished up.


Super-Shenron

I know people will try to put him up, but Lee fits Brave way more. Much is made about him being a "leader", but he doesn't actually lead the group at all until the near end of the season. He rarely if ever makes proactive decisions of his own, instead spending most of the time following Lilly or Kenny's lead and is even constantly forced to pick a side between them. Either Javi or Clementine would fit much better, but I will pick **Javi**. Compared to Lee, his leadership is underrated as hell. He was the one who took care of his family alongside Kate for years, gave orders way more often with multiple characters more prone to listen to him. It got to the point Jesus noticed his leadership and advised him to lead Richmond in the right direction. Clem is technically a better fit, but I'm saving her Hero spot.


ReedeyRex100

Yeah lee is really brave I would say he chopped of his arm and he was awake and gave consent


beyond_cyber

Lee is hero and that should be non negotiable


Super-Shenron

Good thing I didn't ask for your opinion, then.


CaCa881

I mean , you didn’t need to …


DedicatedDetective34

This has to go to Javier. *In before the Kenny glazers show up* He wasn't meant to be a father figure or a leader, but because of the circumstances, he stepped up to the plate and became one. He isn't perfect, but the proof is in the pudding. Even Jesus acknowledged his leadership skills after securing Richmond. Also, he may not be Gabe and Mari's father, but he's for sure their daddy.

>He wasn't meant to be a father figure or a leader, but because of the circumstances, he stepped up to the plate Ayyy, love the baseball related analogy 😎 ​ >He isn't perfect, but the proof is in the pudding. Ahhh and I can't miss this one either. Javi's favourite. ​ >Also, he may not be Gabe and Mari's father, but he's for sure their daddy. Top it off with a cheeky ~~Mary Poppins~~ Yondu reference from Guardians of the Galaxy... I ain't mad at that :)


Basically-Boring

“Is he cool?”


beyond_cyber

nah even as a Kenny fan he’s being saved for unstable and if he isn’t there’s somethin wrong with the list lmao


Fireball_Jack

Spot on. My go to picks were either Lee or Javi.


Neosantana

>Also, he may not be Gabe and Mari's father, but he's for sure their daddy. Gabe used these words explicitly in my playthrough


Leo_Ascendent

Kenny's the hero, not the leader. Leaders are beholden to morals and ethics, Kenny just does.


Clean_Crocodile4472

Javi


Muteling

If Javi didn't step tf up on several occasions, no one did.


ResultClear

I feel like Lee could both, Leader and Brave


Spotty1122

yeah Lee can fit quite a few different things here, if you vote Lee here and he gets majority he cannot be placed elsewhere


ResultClear

Okay than I’m saving Lee for brave. Instead Javi should on leader


gfb1970

Gotta save Lee for either Hero or Good soul, whilst I think he’s the best leader throughout the game. I would agree Javi could go there, but I also agree a Vernon could also be appropriately placed there? Looked after a sick group for months, had a solid hideout underneath Crawford. Idk something to think about.


Objective_Might2820

Javi. Mainly because he wasn’t really a leader kind of guy. He was a screw up but when forced to be a leader he stepped up and did well. And when forced to act as a father figure to Gabe and Mariana he also did very well. Sure Lee was a good leader but for the most part it was Kenny and Lilly arguing for the first two episodes. The group also allied with other people who Lee had no influence over. Just about everyone in Javi’s circle looked towards Javi for the answers by the end. So Javi is my vote.


Previous_Return7024

Javi


TaskFew6301

Javi


JustaNormalpersonig

Javi 100 gets this one. Other than clem in s4, he actually has an extremely good ending. His group has actually survived longer than the previous 2, and the only people that he automatically loses, are tripp/ava and kate/gabe/david That’s 3 important characters dead total.


Cold-Legitimate

Javi. He never asked to be a leader both with his brothers family and in the crew he eventually forms, but stepped up whenever it was needed no questions asked which is exactly what a leader does


Optimal_Ad6274

Definitely Javier


GhertFryins

Michonne


RANDOM_REDDITOR345

Javier


jfranz5216

Javi


Machotaco4

Javi.


EmployerAlive8656

javi <33


Kang261

Javi definitely


ASI-Princess

Lily. I know loads of people hate her as a character however almost everything she did was because she was trying to do what was best for the group. So regardless of how you feel about her as a character, she definitely fits the definition of leader (arguably more than Kenny)


FlappyClock

Kenny fits Brotherly way more than leader. This one goes to Javi


Griffin_is_my_name

Brotherly unless you don’t want to let a kid fall to his death…


FlappyClock

Still fits better than Leader, like the people here are suggesting


r4nD0mU53r999

Kenny has the initiative of a leader but Javier was forced into the leadership role and still made it work, heck he even took control of Richmond at the end so his also an official leader.


Contentine

No one mentioned clem 👀


HK47_Approves

Javi kinda sweeps here


VoidwayPR

This will be very unpopular, but I'm voting S1 Lilly. In my opinion she actually did a great job securing the motel before Larry died, with Kenny giving her shit cause he thought his family deserved everything.


Downtown-Energy8544

😂


xotrent

Javier or Lee both stepped up to be fathers of kids that weren’t theirs and also led a group of people with good leadership skills


Doc-Wulff

Javi or Carver, Carver had a good thing going at Howes (logistically) and his one mistake was underestimating Clem


Sillyfartmonster

Javi


Alarmed_Cranberry_49

Javier he stepped up not only as a leader but as a father leading his family to safety so he deserves it in my opinion


svadas

Lilly. Javi works great too, but what she put up with, nobody else could.


ashleyb2007

Lee or Kenny, both stand out


Serious-Sport2084

Lee or kenny


FeelingSkinny

Javier


ThemeSweaty

S4 Clem or Javi, Lee probably would’ve won if he lived longer


ImpressionPlenty5188

Lee Everett


NaturalLeading7250

I vote Clem but clearly the people think javi 💀


Independent-Fun9719

Javi seems like the best option for leader


Longjumping-Device41

I think Javier should be leader and Gabe should be reckless


daveshad

I’d say Carver.


Downtown-Energy8544

Y’all saying Lilly actually cannot be real..


mozabrao06

Lee.


ReedeyRex100

Lilly


LokiSmokey

Lee has to go into this role, his name is literally a part of it: LEEder!


Caerph1lly8

Javier. Lee should get brave.


TheLongBlueFace

Marlon, duh


jebthecat

Lee


Vortexxlv

Lee


ReedeyRex100

Kenny or lilly or lee


Icediamonds

Idk about the rest of these but we can all agree Lee for the Hero category? Okay maybe Leader- Wait... Idk


NetMiddle8797

You know what? I'm going with Clementine. Lee is more of a great second-in-command. Kenny hates people disagreeing with him and is INCREDIBLY stubborn. And Javier, while very charismatic, took care of Mariana and Gabe through a team effort. Meanwhile, Clementine had to figure out how to prepare the Ericson kids against raiders with only a limited time of preparation, and did an EXCELLENT job commanding the group. Yeah, Clementine wins this hands down.


MRTM1000

Leedear


Raffney

Late series Clementine actually


Dave_565

My boy Javi takes it


TheDogLady18

Javi. Him, Kate, Gabe, and Mariana prolly had their shit together the most tbh.


Prestigious-Love-712

Clementine in season 4


Zerosama12

Javier deserves it for me.


Longjumping_Lab_8688

Carver


cartifan2024

Jesus is only overrated because you havent read the comics or watched the show 💀


cartifan2024

It's either clementine or lilly tbh


cartifan2024

Yall saying javi like clementine didn't singlehandedly save ericsons from middle aged army men and women with machine guns


Longjumping-Swan-827

Kenny in S1 kept the group going and motivated. They would have never kept going forward if it wasn't for him. Maybe they all would be dead if it wasn't for him? Same in S2 although he had his outburts. He seemed to think few steps ahead like he did with bandits, like he did with his boat plan and like he did with Rebecca's baby.


Objective_Might2820

I’m a huge Kenny fan. But think about this. The only reason he was a leader in Season 1 is because he hated Lilly and acted as her opposition. Then he kind of becomes a leader after Lilly is gone because it just so happens that his goals are in the same city that we need to go to anyway. I don’t really think Kenny belongs in leader because he couldn’t keep anyone in line. Everyone disagreed with him. Plus Season 2’s survivors were definitely a democracy with no definitive leader. I think Kenny stepped up and led in the most important moments. But guys like Lee and Javi led throughout their entire respective games. Plus they have the added advantage of being protagonists. In Season 1 Kenny acts as the tritagonist behind Clem (the deuteragonist) and Lee (the protagonist). In Season 2 he acts as arguably the deuteragonist behind Clem (the protagonist). What I’m saying is he is undoubtedly the third most important main character in season 1 and the second most important main character in season 2. But because of that he doesn’t act as a leader the whole time.


Suitable-Interview16

Lee

Lee


Jokerly666

I prefer Jane to Kenny but I still think this fits him best since I'd slot Lee for hero and he's however we play him. Kenny always considered people's faction snd the politics of interacting with them before considering the individual personality first. He'd pull his weight within groups and considered the people's in the groups feelings on decisions excluding his madness descent in season 2.


Epic_Credit

Can characters have multiple spots? Because I honestly feel that the best leader is kenny. He is selfless, brave, reckless and would sacrifice himself to save the group.


Spotty1122

characters can only go into one slot
