So currently, our Outriders have a Varies rating, which makes no sense since they don't seem to vary a lot in strength at all.
Well then how should they be rated? According to the description on the page, some of them are Wall level for contending with Hawkeye and Black Widow. However, Hawkeye never fought an Outrider, he was only able to harm them with arrows or knives. Considering the fact that Hawkeye was visibly terrified and running away from the Outriders it's fair to say he's no match for them.
So we at least know that the Outriders are probably significantly more powerful than Hawkeye.
According to the current profile, we see the likes of Black Widow, M'Baku and Okoye being able to come out of the Battle of Wakanda unscathed, while the Outriders were able to solo Cap and BP, hence the "Varies" rating. However, let's analyse the Battle of Wakanda to see if this is true.
This is one of the better clips I can find on YouTube of the Battle of Wakanda.
At around 2 minutes we see the entire Wankanda army charge towards the incoming Outriders, with Captain America and Black Panther running the fastest (as expected). They leapt towards the hordes of Outriders and started beating up as many as possible. This is rather similar to Batman beating up a group of thugs. Cap and BP were able to, albeit barely, fight a crowd of Outriders, and were able to KO an Outrider in one or two hits, and were only having trouble because of the sheer number of Outriders.
Then the video cuts to Thor forging Stormbreaker, and after it cuts back to Wakanda we see Bucky, Cap and BP getting overwhelmed by Outriders. However, no Outrider ever faced them 1-on-1, and most just caught him off guard. For example, an Outrider suddenly leapt on Captain America after he defeated another Outrider and threw him into a group so he can be mauled. Same with Black Panther, the Outriders caught him off guard and mauled him in a group, rather similar to how they were able to knock down the Hulkbuster armour in a group. Individually they were getting one-shot by Cap and BP.
For the Wakandans, we don't see details of them fighting the Outriders, but considering the fact that many were injured and some were dead, it's safe to say that they were getting overpowered by the Outriders and were only able to harm them with weaponry.
I think they should be rated just as "At most Building level" since they are significantly stronger than the likes of Hawkeye and nearly, but not as strong as the likes of Captain America, instead of "Varies from Wall level to at least Building level".
