* [[Big No]]: Whenever Mordecai dies. ''"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! I '''NEVER''' DIE!!!"''
▲* [[Cool Mask]]
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Mordecai employs this trope quite often when he scores a kill.
*
▲** His victory dialogue against elite mooks ("Nothin' like a challengin' kill!"; "Yeah, not bad! Not bad."; "Heh; another trophy for my wall.") seem to imply that he regards his enemies as sport, as challenges that he is excited to meet. As opposed to, y'know, people.
* [[The Gunslinger]]: Every playable character can use guns and has skill trees relating to them, but Mordecai actually gets a skill tree that's called this, specifically with pistols.

Line 36:
{{quote|''As "The Soldier"''}}

* [[Combat Medic]]: Roland has a skill tree called 'Medic' that helps him heal his allies, but that doesn't mean he's any less capable of shooting you. The tree has other abilities that specifically make him hardier, increases his weaponry's magazine size. and actually has an ability that requires him to kill an enemy to activate it. And one of the ways he can heal allies is by ''[[Healing Shiv|shooting]]'' them, giving the term new meaning. Plus he can upgrade his turret to heal allies while unhealing everyone else. There is an insane medic 'build' which is perfect for arena fighting. Getting healed by your turret and a healing boost from killing enemies... Hitting level 45 pretty much allows you to run around in the thick of battle without a shield running from enemy to enemy and shoot them point blank (who cares about weapon accuracy?) for continued ownage. Question is: are you able to reach level 45 in your first playthrough?
