Capcom Cup 11 served as the conclusion to the Capcom Pro Tour 2024 circuit back in early March. As we’re still awaiting the arrival of Elena, it’s still technically the second season of Street Fighter 6.
As such, Momochi recently released a new tier list for Street Fighter 6 Season 2. All 25 characters currently in the game have been divided up into one of five tier categories consisting of S, A+, A, B, and C.
It’s interesting to note that the latest DLC combatant to join Street Fighter 6, Mai Shiranui, sits at the very top of S tier along with Akuma, Ken, and Ed. Recently, there’s been a lot of speculation that Mai could be a top tier candidate in Street Fighter 6, but nobody has placed her in the highest possible position until now.
Juri, JP, Guile, Rashid, and M. Bison are also said to be quite strong as they all reside in the A+ tier group. Of course, we have to recognize that JP is absolutely a viable character considering how Kakeru was able to win the $1,000,000 prize by winning Capcom Cup 11 with the character.
It’s also interesting to note that Ryu sits at the bottom of A tier, implying that he’s worse than 14 characters, but better than 10 others. Despite this, Ryu was able to achieve second place at Capcom Cup 11 and Red Bull Kumite 2025
As of right now, the worst characters are said to be Dhalsim, Lily, and Marisa. While it’s still possible to win with these fighters, players using them will have to work significantly harder than most other players to do so.
