Thunder and Snake/Serpent are the strongest all-around Breathing candidates in the available community rankings, while Blood and Ice lead one fan list of Demon Arts. Those are unofficial opinions, not measured balance results or a developer-published tier list. PvE and PvP reward different strengths, so the rankings below separate the modes and explain where the evidence is limited.
Are these official Slayers 2 rankings?
No verified developer tier table appears in the available sources. The Project Slayers 2 Wiki explicitly calls its list unofficial and says, “Ouw Productions has not published an official table” (Project Slayers 2 Wiki tier list). The rankings here are an editorial interpretation of community assessments, not official balance data.

The sources do not provide comparable damage measurements, win rates, or usage statistics. Treat placements as qualitative guidance: build, execution, and later balance updates can change what performs best.
How to read the PvE and PvP tiers
PvE rewards dependable boss damage, group clearing, ability uptime, safety during enemy attacks, and rotations that do not require elaborate setup. PvP places more weight on mobility, initiating or escaping fights, control, range, punish potential, and whether abilities reliably connect against another player. Ease of use and dependence on a particular clan or weapon also affect practical value.

One community list says it considers PvE and PvP performance alongside ease of use and clan or weapon dependence, but its placements remain that publisher’s assessment (Project Slayers 2 Wiki tier list). Another list is based on creator reviews, labels its style rankings as opinion, and notes disagreement about Water (Roblox-Slayers2 Wiki tier list, updated September 20, 2026). Because the sources do not publish a shared scoring system or performance dataset, the tables use broad tiers rather than invented numerical scores.
Breathing Style tier list
The available ranking evidence points to Thunder and Snake/Serpent as leading options overall, but it does not establish a definitive order for every style in each mode. The tier placements below reflect that evidence while avoiding unsupported claims about individual styles.
Rank #2
- Punch demons with the power of bands created!
- The battle of Tanjiro Kamado will again unfold …
| Mode | Tier | Breathing Style | What the evidence supports |
|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Top candidates | Thunder; Snake/Serpent | A community-maintained list places Thunder and Snake at the top overall. It does not provide separate measured PvE results. |
| PvE | Other placements | Not established | The sources disagree about some styles and do not provide comparable PvE data for a complete ranking. |
| PvP | Top candidates | Thunder; Snake/Serpent | These styles rank highly in the cited community assessments, but mode-specific win rates or matchup results are not stated. |
| PvP | Other placements | Not established | A launch-week creator-based list reports disagreement about Water; there is not enough shared evidence to assign a reliable order to the remaining styles. |
Use Thunder or Snake/Serpent as starting points if you want to follow the strongest recurring community signal, not as a guarantee of superiority in every fight. In PvE, test whether your rotation stays safe and useful through boss telegraphs. In PvP, prioritize abilities you can land consistently and use to control spacing; a high community placement cannot substitute for execution or a suitable build.

A community ranking places Blood and Ice at the top of its Demon Art list, but does not supply separate PvE and PvP measurements. A separate fan guide describes the abilities by qualitative roles rather than measured outcomes (Slayers 2 Wiki Demon Arts guide).
Rank #3
- Take Up the Sword Once Again - Play as Tanjiro Kamado and face off against evil demons in key moments from the “Entertainment District Arc,” “Swordsmith Village Arc,” and “Hashira Training Arc” with breathtaking visuals and combat.
- The Hashira Unite - A host of new arrivals added to the roster, with over 40 playable characters to choose from including the nine Hashira, the highest rank of the Demon Slayer Corps.
- More Ways to Play - Expanded Single Player content allows you to relive the story in a brand-new way.
| Mode | Tier | Demon Art | Useful distinction |
|---|---|---|---|
| PvE | Top candidates | Blood; Ice Manipulation | Blood and Ice lead one fan ranking overall; the sources do not establish separate PvE performance. |
| PvE | Situational roles | Shockwave; Dream Manipulation; Tamari; Explosive Blood | The guide characterizes Shockwave as area damage and disruption, Ice as freeze/slow control, Dream as control/debuff, and Explosive Blood as burst. It gives no measured PvE comparison; it does not state a specific role for Tamari. |
| PvP | Top candidates | Blood; Ice Manipulation | These are the top choices in one overall fan list, not proven PvP leaders. |
| PvP | Situational roles | Shockwave; Dream Manipulation; Tamari; Explosive Blood | Control, disruption, and burst are potentially relevant traits, but the guide does not show how often these effects land or how they compare in player fights. |
Demon Arts versus Evil Arts
The cited guide separates standard Demon Arts—Shockwave, Ice Manipulation, Dream Manipulation, Tamari, and Explosive Blood—from Evil Arts, which it lists as Reaper and Arrow. Keep those categories distinct when comparing options; the guide’s terminology does not make Reaper and Arrow entries in the standard-art ranking.
Choosing a style or art for your play
- For general use: Thunder or Snake/Serpent for Breathing, and Blood or Ice for Demon Arts are the clearest community-backed starting candidates.
- For PvE: Favor reliable damage, group coverage, uptime, and safe use during enemy telegraphs. The available rankings do not prove which option wins a particular boss matchup.
- For PvP: Test mobility, range, initiation, escape, control, and consistency against moving opponents. Overall tier placements are not matchup data.
- For a newer player: Give more weight to ease of execution and any clan or weapon requirements than to a small difference in an unofficial ranking.
- After a balance update: Recheck official game channels before treating an older community list as current. A community-maintained links page identifies the official Discord and Roblox game page as places to check for updates; its status report is not itself an official patch log (Slayers 2 Wiki official links guide).
How current are these rankings?
The comparison reflects community material available around October 2026, including a list updated September 20, 2026. The sources themselves show why rankings can move: one creator-based list says a launch balance patch had already changed its placements, while publishers disagree about some styles. Check the game’s official channels for subsequent changes rather than assuming this snapshot still matches the live balance.
Rank #4
- Fun for the whole family
- 2-6 Players
- Play as Partners or Individually
- Rotating Partner System when Playing Partners
- Picture Cards for Extra Scoring Strategies
No public developer Trello board is reported by the community links guide, so its Discord and Roblox links are more useful starting points for checking announcements than searching for a presumed official Trello board (Slayers 2 Wiki official links guide).
