DELTARUNE Fight Versus Tier List
Who to bring when the other party is a human, not a Dojo dummy.
Versus is a different sport from Dojo stacking. You cannot hide behind three Jevils and call it PvP. You need two or more players in a party, then VERSUS on the Party menu — full start guide on how to PvP. This list ranks roles and names for that button, September 2026.
If you want sandbox PvE ranks, use the character tier list instead.
S tier
Susie (burst). Timed Rude Buster is the Versus win condition. Numbers already in the wild: about 62 on a good MAGIC, about 32 on two follow-up hits, and a Ralsei under 94% can vanish on turn two if TP was farmed on turn one. If your party has no Susie and no equal MAGIC, you are playing defense until you lose.
A human who can time FIGHT. This sounds cute. It is the real S-tier. A missed bar makes every name on this page look average. Practice in the Dojo with how to fight.
A tier
Kris. Lead, ACT, not a dumpster. You want someone who can spend a turn without throwing the duel. Kris is that someone.
Noelle. IceShock as a second MAGIC if Susie already spent the bar, or as a chip tool. She is not a healer. Do not ask her to be Ralsei.
Ralsei (played correctly). DEFEND turn one, heal when the box was ugly, never sit at 90% HP in front of a known burst. Played badly he is free ELO for the other Susie. Played well he is A because long duels still exist.
B tier
Default Fun Gang with sloppy timing. The four starter names are enough to duel. They drop to B when nobody DEFENDs. That is a habit rank, not a sprite rank.
Berdly / Aqua. Flex extras. They do not beat a disciplined Fun Gang core.
C tier
Roaring Knight. Name is terrifying. Players already said the encounter is nerfed a lot on the current build. Picking Knight because of official chapter trauma is how you lose a Roblox duel. Lab in Dojo first. If a revert ships, this row moves — patch notes.
Werewire. Body without a Versus plan.
D tier
Pure joke stacks. Four identical chaos allies, no heal, no DEFEND. Funny clip, free loss.
Pink: unranked until Saturday fights are common. Do not ban her in your head yet. See Saturday Pink.
Versus team templates
Standard: Kris, Susie, Ralsei, Noelle. One lead, one burst, one heal, one chip. This is also the Fun Gang page in team form.
Burst-heavy: Kris, Susie, Noelle, Ralsei still in the fourth slot. If you cut the healer to add a boss, you are gambling that the duel ends before the box gets long.
Anti-burst: Kris, Ralsei, Ralsei-like extra if you have one, Susie. Two DEFEND habits plus one nuke. Slow, stable, wins against people who only learned Rude Buster.
Ban-list thinking (even without bans)
There is no ranked ban phase. Mentally ban:
- Your own habit of FIGHTing on empty TP.
- Leaving Ralsei visible at 90%.
- Importing a PvE Jevil stack.
- Blaming ping for a pattern you could have DEFENDed.
Scripts that auto-dodge would warp this list and would also be a TOS problem. We will not rank cheats. See Scripts Hub.
After a loss
Change one thing. If the healer died first, you needed DEFEND, not a new roster. If you never cast MAGIC, you needed TP, not Pink. If you could not move, you needed controls, not a tier argument. Re-run the same template from the party planner before you invent a new meta.
Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers for Castle Town, the Dojo, and Versus nights.
Is Ralsei bad in PvP?
He is a great healer and a great target. DEFEND first. The burst math is on how to PvP.
Why is Jevil not S here?
Versus is player versus player. Enemy-as-ally stacks belong on the PvE character tier list.
Does ping change ranks?
It changes execution, not the roster. Pick the same four and DEFEND more on laggy servers.
