Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves – Fighter Tier List and Best Characters to Main
Wondering who to main in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves? Here’s the full fighter tier list plus the best S-Tier characters to dominate online and offline matches.
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves – Fighter Tier List & Who to Main
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves gives players a huge roster to pick from, with all sorts of fighting styles—whether you want an all-rounder, a fast-paced rusher, a zoning specialist, or a heavy-hitting bruiser.
That said, not all fighters are created equal. Some characters have way more flexibility, making them much stronger choices for competitive play. If you’re serious about winning, learning a versatile fighter will always beat picking someone just because they’re easy to play.
If you’re new, it’s a good idea to start using Smart Style to get a feel for each character’s kit—then switch to Arcade Style once you’re comfortable.

Who Should You Main?
If you want the best shot at crushing your opponents in both PvP and PvE, you should seriously consider maining one of the S-Tier characters.
That doesn’t mean you can’t explore others for fun, but your main should be someone who gives you every advantage possible.
S-Tier Characters Breakdown
🥇 Billy Kane
Billy’s been around the Fatal Fury series for a while, usually showing up as a sub-boss—and he’s just as nasty in City of the Wolves.
- Huge reach with his extendable polearm.
- Excellent mid-range control—he can poke enemies safely and combo into devastating follow-ups.
- Anti-air options that shut down rushers and aerial attacks.
If you like controlling space and making opponents really work to get near you, Billy’s your guy.
🥈 Kain R. Heinlein
Kain is the textbook zoner but with a twist—he’s got a few surprise tricks up close too.
- Schwarzes Rondo ability plants a stationary fireball that you can detonate later for setups or area denial.
- Strong keep-away game but can surprise rush if opponents get too comfortable.
New players often don’t expect a zoner to suddenly go aggressive, so Kain can really mess with enemy expectations.
🥉 Vox Reaper
Vox Reaper is your ultimate hybrid fighter—and he’s a monster once you learn him.
- Rusher + Grappler combo, which is rare (and super scary for zoners).
- Explosive close-range attacks that make it almost impossible for opponents to push him off once he’s in their face.
- Can adapt to how the opponent is playing, flipping the pace of the match in an instant.
Vox rewards aggressive, smart play—and if you’re good at reading your enemy, he’ll let you steamroll them.
While there are no truly bad characters in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, maining an S-Tier fighter like Billy, Kain, or Vox gives you a serious advantage.
These characters have the tools to adapt, punish mistakes, and completely control the flow of a match.
Start with Smart Style, learn what makes each fighter tick, and then jump into Arcade Style to maximize your character’s potential. 🎮🔥
