Looking to build the perfect team of fighters in Street Fighter Duel? The new free-to-play game has over 40 characters you can unlock, including icons of the series such as Ryu, Ken and Chun Li. But just because a character is powerful in the mainline games doesn't mean they're a great choice here.

If you need a helping hand, then our Street Fighter Tier List is here to save the day. We've ranked the characters from best to worst so you know who to lookout for.

Street Fighter Duel Tier List

Here's our rankings of the best and worst characters in Street Fighter Duel:

Tier Fighter
S-tier Bison, Rose, Juri, Dhalsim, Combat Guile, Gen, Gore Magala Ken, Street Poison, Akuma, Flame Chun Li, Evil Ryu, Sagat, Beast Zangief, Fashion Blanka, Vergil, Nero, Summer Ibuki, Gouken
A-tier Poison, Trendy Cammy, Athlete Chun Li, Viper, Cammy, Elena, Zangief, Chun Li, Blanka, Mad Ryu, Adon, Mayor Cody, Fashion Sakura, Guile, Vega, Dante, Summer Yang, Mummy Dhalsim
B-tier E Honda, Guy, Hugo, Makoto, Decapre, Yun, Yang, Charming Dudley, Abel, Ken, Ryu, Diviner Rose

D-tier Rolento, Rufus, Hakan, Sakura, Dan
E-tier Sanji, Hodi, Gary, Mech Seth, Patrick, Carolyn, Baldwin, Philip, Bethany, Ron, Akaebo

The rankings on this tier list come from our own playtime as well as considering the opinions of community creators like Alpha - Male, RoKage, Payneblade and TrollGaming. We're expecting more characters to get added to the roster in the future, so we'll be sure to keep updating this tier list. The first new character - Gore Magala Ken - arrived with the Street Fighter Duel x Monster Hunter event. Since then plenty of new characters have been added including Akuma, Sagat, Vega and the Devil May Cry trio of Dante, Vergil and Nero. The most recent characters to be added to Street Fighter Duel are Mummy Dhalsim, Gouken and Diviner Rose.
