Street Fighter Duel offers an engaging gameplay experience with a lot of classic combo moves and flashy ultimates. You can create powerful teams of characters and take part in various game modes to defeat enemies and earn amazing rewards.
But with such a large collection of almost 50 fighting characters, you need to choose your fighter lineup strategically in order to climb the ranks quickly, and this might not be an easy task for a new player. That’s why we’ve created this Street Fighter Duel tier list to help you make the best choices when building your team.
Street Fighter Duel Tier List: S Tier (Best Characters)
- M. Bison (Infernal, Power, Attack)
- Gen (Master, Agility, Assassin)
- Abel (Wind, Power, Tank)
- Rose (Master, Tech, Support)
- Blanka (Thunder, Power, Balanced)
- Juri (Infernal, Tech, Assassin)
- Chun-Li (Wind, Agility, Assassin)
- Elena (Thunder, Agility, Support)
- T. Hawk (Wind, Power, Tank)
In the S tier we included the best Street Fighter Duel characters that offer the highest damage output and strong defensive capabilities. These are the characters you should focus on if you want to create the best team possible.
M. Bison
M. Bison is by far the most powerful character in Street Fighter: Duel thanks to his incredibly fast and powerful skill attacks. With his Super skill, he can dish out massive amounts of damage to multiple targets.
His first Combo skill is also amazing as it gives him the ability to take out a single enemy into the air and strike him 3 times, dealing massive damage. With such skills, he performs great on both, multi-target and single-target. Not only that, but he can do all this while regenerating health. Quite an impressive skill set!
- Faction: Infernal
- Type: Power
- Class: Attack
- Fight Style: Secret Arts
- Super Skill: AoE
- First Combo Skill: Single Target
- Second Combo Skill: AoE
Gen
Gen is one of the strongest single-target characters in Street Fighter Duel, mostly due to his amazing Super Skill, which gives him the power to strike a single enemy 8 times in a row, causing enormous damage. He is also the fastest character in the game, allowing him to quickly move around the battlefield and dodge enemy attacks.
- Faction: Master
- Type: Agility
- Class: Assassin
- Fight Style: Ansatsuken
- Super Skill: Single
- First Combo Skill: Single
- Second Combo Skill: Single
Abel
Abel also specializes in single-target damage. Although he might not do massive damage as the previous two characters, he is well-balanced and versatile, which makes him good either as a tank or a damage dealer.
- Faction: Wind
- Type: Power
- Class: Tank
- Fight Style: Military Combat
- Super Skill: Single
- First Combo Skill: Single
- Second Combo Skill: Single
Rose
When used in the right team composition, Rose can be the perfect support character for any team. She has a unique set of skills with a good balance of damage, healing, and buffing. She is also good at crowd control and weakening enemies. Overall, her defensive skills can help her survive in battles and make her a great addition to any team composition.
- Faction: Master
- Type: Tech
- Class: Support
- Fight Style: Secret Arts
- Super Skill: Control
- First Combo Skill: Buff
- Second Combo Skill: AoE
Blanka
Blanka is the most effective character against multiple targets. His Electric Thunder skill allows him to take considerably less damage while dealing a good amount of damage to all targets in his range. His super skill is also great as it increases the damage taken to all enemy targets in his range, and when combined with good damage dealers like Gen or Mr. Bison, it can be extremely useful.
- Faction: Thunder
- Type: Power
- Class: Balanced
- Fight Style: Savage
- Super Skill: AoE
- First Combo Skill: AoE
- Second Combo Skill: AoE
Juri
Juri has also amazing single-target damage capabilities and is good at AoE too. But she is not that great at taking damage and in some cases, she can be defeated quite easily.
- Faction: Infernal
- Type: Tech
- Class: Assassin
- Fight Style: Ansatsuken
- Super Skill: Single
- First Combo Skill: Single
- Second Combo Skill: AoE
Chun-Li
Chun-Li is one of the most enjoyable characters to play with in Street Fighter Duel. She is quite fast and her AoE combo skill can deal huge damage to multiple targets with her 10 kicks effect. I hate when I face her in PvE, cause she’s such a strong character.
- Faction: Wind
- Type: Agility
- Class: Assassin
- Fight Style: Military Combat
- Super Skill: AoE
- First Combo Skill: AoE
- Second Combo Skill: Single
Elena
Elena is the best healer in Street Fighter Duel. She can deal good damage too, but her healing skills can be extremely effective in team battles. She also has some great defensive capabilities, allowing her to protect her allies while increasing their HP.
- Faction: Thunder
- Type: Agility
- Class: Support
- Fight Style: Secret Arts
- Super Skill: Heal
- First Combo Skill: Heal
- Second Combo Skill: Buff
T. Hawk
T. Hawk is one of the best tank characters in this game. He not only can take a lot of damage for his team, but he also has the ability to buff his teammates with the Resist effect and increase their Defense. In addition to that, he can also do good single-target damage.
- Faction: Wind
- Type: Power
- Class: Tank
- Fight Style: Wrestling
- Super Skill: Single
- First Combo Skill: Single
- Second Combo Skill: Single
