Street Fighter V Champion Edition has been officially released, letting the public eye feast on the 40-strong character roster.
As we head towards a new Capcom Pro Tour Season, RedBull has weaved together a tier list of all the characters to see who's on the lead and how they all compare to each other. They structured the list from S rank which is the strongest to C Rank, the weakest, making A and B rank the strongest in mid-tier SFV.
RedBull will work out the tier placement based on the four different areas
Control of the neutral, as both characters are against one another, it depends on whether they are looking to control space with their attacks, or push their character's game plan upon their opponent and counter or another attack that can lead to damage.
Tools need for success, This is basically a three frame jab that includes, invincible moves, strong V-Trigger or V-Skill, for instance, which can be a big influence on tier position.
Matchups, basically someone who can control the range and also the space of the stage with ease. The fewer bad matchups, the higher in the tier list the character will be.
Robbery As they are being able to pop V-Trigger and steamroll opponents before they even have a chance to even think about what is going on is a strong tool.
Time for the list

These characters are the best of the best and are most likely to be featured in Top 8s throughout the upcoming Capcom Pro Tour season.
TOP 3 IN S-TIER
G - G got very buffed. Great buttons along with strong special moves and two good V-Skills. The President is going to be a high-level Street Fighter V this season, dominating fashion or just stealing victories left right and center.
RASHID - An extremely aggressive character with great movement speed that is giving him the free will to choose whatever best fits a certain match up and still stay strong.
CHUN LI - Chun Li has just gotten stronger in each balance patch until Season Five, where she's in a relatively good place, having two very good V-Triggers, players expect to see a lot of her in Season Five tournaments.
