Encounters Smash Battles Tier List

Encounters Smash Battles Roblox tier list ranking all champions from S to D tier. Updated meta rankings for competitive and casual play.

Choosing the right champion in Encounters Smash Battles can mean the difference between a quick elimination and a trophy-climbing win streak. Our tier list ranks every fighter from S-tier dominance to D-tier underperformers based on knockback power, combo potential, recovery options, and competitive viability in the current Roblox meta.

Tier placement reflects general performance across 1v1 and FFA modes. Individual matchup knowledge and player skill often outweigh raw tier rank — a mastered Ryan can defeat a casual Kusanagi despite tier differences.
