Slipknot

Along with Captain Boomerang, Slipknot might just be the most useless of all Suicide Squad members. How come? Well, his main ability is that he is good with ropes "“ so you do the math. The trailer does show him in action, though, in the sense that he straight up punches a FBI lady in the face, as soon as he gets out of a car. Yes, this trailer pulls no punches, we might say.
But, other than this, Slipknot is nowhere to be seen in quite a lot of the scenes from the trailer, which makes us assume that he will meet an early end. Most likely it will be because he is, as said, pretty much useless. However, there could be another reason as well.

How are the villains recruited in the Squad from the first place? Well, it isn't as if they volunteer "“ and we see in the trailer a couple of quite creepy surgeons awaiting for Killer Croc (we suspect). Basically, these surgeons are tasked with implanting explosive devices in the squad members, in order to keep them in check. Can this explain the absence of Slipknot from most of the shots?
It can be. He maybe wants to run away and Amanda Waller blows him away, just to make an example. Which is pretty fine by us "“ from what we've seen, all the other squad members are awesome. Yes, even Captain Boomerang.
