Shortly after Street Fighter 6 was released, content creator Diaphone released an ease-of-use tier list for the game. Since then, Rashid, A.K.I., Ed, Akuma, M. Bison, Terry, and Mai have been added to the game as DLC.
In one of his recent videos, Diaphone creates a new ease-of-use tier list focused on just the newly added DLC fighters. This type of information could be useful to anyone looking to buy one of the combatants added to the game post launch, but need to know who would best fit them before committing to such a purchase.
As expected, it seems that M. Bison is seen as one of the easier characters to play in Street Fighter 6. In addition to having high damage output, the safety of his scissor kicks gives him access to a simple game plan that can be difficult to challenge appropriately.
It’s interesting to note that Terry and Mai have also ranked in the “easy” tier category along with M. Bison. Thus far, all the Season 2 characters are said to be easy to pick up and play, but we’ll have to see if that holds up once Elena gets released.
Ed and A.K.I. have both been indicated to have steep learning curves. At this point, both of these fighters have proven to be very relevant in the current meta thanks to changes going from Season 1 to Season 2.
While Ed and A.K.I. do take some getting used to, they both appear to be rewarding once that initial difficulty curve is overtaken. As for Rashid and Akuma, they rank in the middle of the DLC combatants.
