For those that are not familiar with the game, KOF All Stars is a crossover fighting game. It’s known for having some of the best characters in gaming history, but do you know which ones? This article will help you make your decision easier by providing a tier list for the best KOF All Stars Characters!
You may be wondering what a tier list is or how it works. Essentially, there are many different characters in the game and they all have their own strengths and weaknesses. These tiers range from being really strong to never seeing any play at high-level competitions like EVO for example (i.e., Orochi Kusanagi). Tier lists help people make decisions about which character would best suit them based on their fighting style preferences as well as the opponents they will most likely fight against.
The tiers that were created take into account not only an individual’s skill level but also how popular each character is with players of varying levels within KOF All Stars communities worldwide! The following table breaks down this ranking system: While these tiers are by no means the end-all be-all of what defines a character’s strength, they do help to provide some insight and guidance when selecting your main.

Andy Bogard, Joe Higashi*, Chin Gentsai and Kyo Kusanagi are all in the C+ tier.
