I see more Ti >Te on Jason. Although Fi seems plausible since he felt "wronged" by Batman, and seemed to be led by that grievance, I think it can also be explained by inferior Fe. His Ti orientation is shown on several occasions, such as when he shared his insights on Batman's equipment and behavior with his men warning them, "Keep your guns trained on him...if he even looks like he's planning to leave that room, open fire. Avoid the Bat-symbol it's a little trick, it's where his armor's the strongest. Aim for the weak spots, at the shoulders first and then coordinate fire at the spots where the plates meet." He demonstrated this again when he pinned Bruce and said "Tri-weave, titanium-coated, armor plating...nice! Unless you know exactly where to shoot." He took great pride in his leverage over Batman as he was knowledgeable on his tactical approach, even gloating during their first encounter, "We know your move before you do, we know how you think!" Similarly to Batman: Under The Red Hood, Jason's greatest strength was his unparalleled ability to meticulously analyze/dissect Batman's combat strategies and temperament. This annoyed Bruce since he and Alfred were unable match an identity to someone who was as efficient, precise, and knowledgeable as him. Another key difference between Ti and Te is that Te derives conclusions based off of the external, while Ti derives it more internally and looks to the external world for support of it. Jason demonstrated this on several occasions as well. Although his men collectively deduced Bruce had fled the scene, he remained stubborn in his notion that he was still on the premise and ordered them to "raise the shields, keep all access points covered" and to "widen the search." He assured them that "there are ways" that he could have entered the perimeter again and he was right. The Fe function is focused mainly on maintaining relationships and ensuring social harmony, however, with a dominant Ti type, the individual can feel restricted by Fe and misinterpret it as a lead to becoming weak-minded. Jason extensively employed his Ti, often suppressing his Fe and this led him to desperately push back against social influences/structures as a way to reinstate his own identity and independence. His Fe inferior was especially highlighted during his final fight with Bruce. Within it, Bruce kept urging him to turn back and accept that he is still Robin, however Jason reacted with aggression and shouted at Bruce to "stop talking" to him, physically displaying his suppressed emotional (Fe) pain. He made all attempts to block out Bruce's appeal due to his mistrust. For years he was entirely consumed with the notion that Bruce abandoned him and as a response heavily leaned into his Ti to exact revenge and forge his own identity away from him. He still gave into Bruce’s Fe appeal though as by the end of the game he came to his aid when he was captured by Scarecrow (on his outfit his chest plate painted with the bat symbol), inferring he had forgiven Bruce and accepted himself as a member of the Bat family once again.
