Street Fighter 6: Who's Hot and Who's Not in the Latest Rankings?

The competitive scene for Street Fighter 6 is intensifying as the third season approaches its conclusion. With 46 out of 48 players already qualified for Capcom Cup 12, the meta has evolved significantly from last year. Nemo, a seasoned player, recently shared his insights on the current state of the game through a tier list that has sparked intriguing discussions.

Top Performers

• Ed and Mai are at the very top, considered the strongest fighters.
• Blanka and Ryu are close behind.
• Terry is performing well but not quite at the same level as the top four.

Notable Changes

• M. Bison: Nemo, who mains this character, believes he has fallen off in terms of performance. Many players have either switched away from him or added secondary characters to their roster.
• Elena: Has seen a rise in her ranking, now placed in A tier alongside JP and Rashid.
• Lily: Her placement in A tier is also surprising to some.
• Sagat: Now in B tier, sharing the space with Ken, Guile, Zangief, A. K. I., and Kimberly.
• C. Viper: The newest character, is at the bottom of C tier.

Additional Insights

• Every character has the potential to win in the current meta.
• The tier list was created before the December balance update, which might not have significantly altered the rankings.
• Nemo's full tier list is available, along with a detailed video explanation in Japanese. While the video is in Japanese, YouTube's auto-dubbing feature can help convey the main points.
