Pieck is an intelligent and capable person but is strongly dependent on the support of her team, a team that has been decimated ever since Eren waged war on Marley. While Pieck has stated before that she has no trust in Marley, she won’t allow Eren to destroy everything and everyone she holds dear. With the colossal force she must face without the Beast Titan or the Jaw Titan, Pieck has her work cut out for her.
6Jean
Jean has been by the sides of Eren, Mikasa, and Armin since the beginning days of scout training. He has seen and experienced the same horrors all the scouts have gone through and must now take down a long-time friend who he isn’t sure is in the wrong.
Still recovering from the loss of Sasha, Jean may be the most unfocused going into the final battle to save the world. When the time comes, Jean may face a laundry list of decisions he will have to act quickly on, and a single moment of hesitation could prove fatal.
5Armin
A heavy responsibility sits on Armin’s shoulders as he and Mikasa race to put a stop to someone they consider family. Not only must they prevent Eren from wiping out the world’s population for their benefit, but they must also do so with the outcome more than likely costing Eren his life. Armin, always the thinker, has to put his feelings aside and consider the best for mankind.
Additionally, Armin still possessing the power of the Colossal Titan makes him the best chance he and his friends have at reaching Eren, which also places him on the frontline of the battlefield.
4Levi
Levi has been a force to be reckoned withsince he first appeared as the second in command of the scout regiment. As an Ackerman, Levi is the most deadly fighter inAttack on Titanand has shown that his tactical prowess is also adequate, being a protégé to Erwin. Levi faced an entire army of titans, including the Beast Titan, and walked out the victor.
Unfortunately, considering the state he is currently in after his last bout with Zeke Yeager, he may still be a force to be reckoned with, but he may not be strong enough to make it through to the other side in one piece.
3Eren
Eren has come leaps and bounds since the day he lost his mother to the titans during the first attack. The path that Eren has walked since then has sent him down a road full of hardships, loss, and tragedy after tragedy.
