Justin Wong and Kizzie Kay recently teamed up to create a “Big Brain” tier list for Street Fighter 6. Essentially, this tier list measures the difficulty in which a character is able to execute upon their game plan.
As it turns out, M. Bison, Zangief, and Kimberly ended up at the very bottom of the tier list. This resulted in the three being labeled as “Eats Crayons.”
Brian_F recently outlined how M. Bison is strong and simple, but isn’t quite top 5 at the moment. Needless to say, M. Bison’s basic game plan of repeatedly using safe Scissor Kicks landed him in this tier position.
Lily, Marisa, E. Honda, Akuma, and Blanka are also said to be relatively easy to play in Street Fighter 6. Notably, Lily and Marisa are both also labeled as being “easy” in terms of their learning curve within the game itself on the character select screen.
The most difficult fighters to use overall are Jamie and Dhalsim. Indeed, both fighters tend to struggle either managing their resources or playing defense in a game that’s so heavily focused on offense.
Of course, Justin Wong and Kizzie Kay are willing to back up their opinions. Every placement is explained throughout the 28 minute video.
