Tiers for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition v2012 by the EventHubs community







Tiers have been and will likely always be a hotly debated topic. Just because a character is a higher tier does not mean you should play them. You're best off picking characters you like because of how they play.



Regardless, some people have disadvantages and the tier rankings do an alright job of outlining these, but DO NOT take the rankings as the final end all be all word about who the best characters are. Think of it more as a loose guideline.

You'll find a chart below showing roughly who would win how many games out of 10 if two high-level players of equal skill played against each other using the characters shown.For example, M. Bison (Dictator) would win 6 games out of 10 against Crimson Viper. And Sagat would win 7 games out of 10 against Zangief.Note: All of the names below are based off of the American release of the game. Balrog is the Boxer, Vega is Claw and so on.You can find older tier listings for the Street Fighter 4 series of games as well.
