Tabzooka has 12 heroes. Zook and Brick are free, five more come with Pro, and five Legends are sold one at a time for $1–$4. Each hero has 7 weapons of their own (84 in all, no two shared), an ability, a Special on E and 2 hero tools on F and R.
Every stat on the in-game select screen is the real number the game uses. Pro heroes have noticeably more health and damage than the free ones. On a free hero, weapons 1–4 are free and weapons 5–7 come with Pro. Pro and Legend heroes come complete.
