* CrooksAreBetterArmed: Most of the firefights in the show have the members of the conspiracy blazing away [[MoreDakka with machine guns]] with utter abandon while the heroes fight back with handguns. The members of SSC that are constantly shown armed with something heavier are [[RedShirtArmy the troopers who get massacred by the truckload]].

* AllForNothing: [[spoiler:Happens to all sides in the first season. SSC spends several episodes trying to keep Fred Faraday alive at all costs so he will provide evidence in the LIVE Corporation case, only for the quartet of assassins to nearly-effortlessly massacre their way through the protection detail at the hospital and kill Faraday regardless (emphasis on "nearly" -- James and Harry manage to kill them, but ''after'' they accomplished their mission). Martland is scott-free but still decides to leave England just to be sure, and he gets killed by Burner in retaliation for the deaths of his subordinates and his wife. And Connor manages to create Masks that provide a HealingFactor and do not have the CastFromLifespan bug, but the one guy he ''really'' wanted to save with them (his brother, Fred Faraday) is killed by the malfunctioning prototype.]]

* MoralSociopathy: Defined by two characters as having the people in their lives defined in two sections: those they are willing to sacrifice and those they are ''not'' willing to sacrifice. And when it comes to protecting those they are not willing to sacrifice, then [[TheUnfettered absolutely anything goes]].
