* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: [[spoiler:As Miles brutally lays out for him during their battle in ''Spider-Man 2'', it doesn't matter what Martin Li lost; he still killed innocent people just because [[ItsAllAboutMe he decided his problems were more important than theirs]].]]

* GutturalGrowler: He constantly sounds like he's snarling while talking, as befitting of a perpetually pissed-off man dressed like a rhino.
* HiddenDepths: In ''Miles Morales'', he claims to enjoy fly fishing on the river Volga when Miles asks if he has any non-violent hobbies. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] when his reason for it is [[{{Sadist}} the thrill of controlling life and death.]] Still, he definitely doesn't seem like the kind of guy who'd be patient enough for something like that at first glance.

* {{Depower}}: [[spoiler:In ''Spider Man 2'', he [[BigDammHeroes shows up to save both Miles and Peter]] when they're being mobbed by symbiote-possessed civilians at City Hall, [[ManOfKryptonite his powers having the unique effect of countering the Symbiote matter]] because of their [[EmotionEater inherent nature]] of enhancing and corrupting the negative emotions in a target to bend them to their will -- something Li's powers also do, which Miles [[NotSoDifferentRemark takes note of]]. Due to the remnant symbiote matter still within him,, Peter is still heavily affected despite this, forcing Li and Miles into a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind to reach the source of the negative emotions the Symbiote is feeding on. To free him fully, Li decides to channel all of his powers into Peter, despite the risks to himself, the result reformatting the residual symbiote into the Anti-Venom suit whilst rendering Martin into a normal human once more, which he's perfectly okay with as part of his efforts to atone for his past]].

* TokenGoodTeammate: Out of the six, Martin is the one who has an inner struggle with his superpowered negative side, and goes through several {{Heel Realization}}s over the course of the story. [[spoiler:He even undergoes a full HeelFaceTurn in the sequel, helping Miles to save Peter from the symbiote's corruption]].

* WalkingSpoiler: In-Universe at least; nobody was aware he was Mr. Negative. [[spoiler: There is the fact that his fate of becoming a super-villain reveals that Osborn is responsible for a lot of messed up things, however.]]

* SparedButNotForgiven: [[spoiler:In the second game. Just before a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind to free Peter of the Venom Symbiote's corruption, Miles takes an opportunity to speak with Li. Essentially, Miles says that even though he's confident that Li's HeelFaceTurn was legit, and even though Miles will let go of his need for vengeance on Li, Miles can ultimately never forgive Li for causing his father's death. Li appears to sadly accept this conclusion.]]

* AmbiguousSituation: He is the only member of the Sinister Six to not show up or even get mentioned in ''VideoGame/MarvelsSpiderMan2'' and as a result it's never revealed if he is still imprisoned at the Raft like Doc Ock, or if he was among the villains who got captured and killed by Kraven. A DummiedOut part of Kraven's trophy room would have revealed he was indeed killed with his head mounted on the wall alongside the other killed villains, but due to being scrapped content and other inconsistencies with the final game[[note]][[spoiler:Electro]] is absent from the trophy room but is one of Kraven's confirmed victims in the final game[[/note]] it's unclear whether this should still be treated as canon.
