2XKO Fighter tier list (early Closed Beta)

Before beginning this tier list, I really wanted to specify that it’s more based on early observations and early data and will need to be heavily updated over time, so I wouldn’t take what I am talking about here at face value and instead use it to start a discussion. Because let’s be honest, making a tier list 24 hours after release based on a closed beta isn’t going to be 100 percent accurate.

It’s more about starting discussions, pooling data, and establishing a baseline to work from as the game receives more support over time. So, again, don’t use this as a definitive list, as it will require significant changes over the first month alone.

Either way, let’s dive into a 2XKO tier list, ranking the fighters individually, as well as discussing some of their best pairings in our official best-to-worst ranking.

For now, I don’t plan to go into greater detail regarding the above picks and intend to update this article periodically, especially during the closed beta, as tournaments are played and new technologies are discovered. I wanted at least to provide a list of champions in some order, though, as well as some duo partner suggestions if you are looking to test these characters for yourself.

So for now, let me know in the comments where you have ranked each champion and why, as well as any duos you think I should test out when updating the list in the future!
