While a Shoto character didn’t take the top overall spot in our character stats for Blink Respawn 2025’s Street Fighter 6 tournament, Ryu, Akuma, Ken and Luke all had strong representation during the event this year.
The recently buffed Ryu was the top performing Shoto character from a stats perspective, while Akuma, Ken and Luke all appeared in the upper part of the stats listings
Capcom Cup winning character, JP, took the overall top spot because he had a player use him as an alternative fighter during Blink Respawn 2025, and he had five other players main him during the competition.
Zangief also appeared with five players using him, getting up there with Ryu and JP.
Dee Jay, Ed, Guile and M. Bison all clocked in with four mains using them during this event, as these fighters are generally among the most popular in Street Fighter 6 competitions.
Unfortunately, E. Honda, Elena and Lily received no representation for the players who made it to the top 64 portion of this tournament.
