Starting ourJujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash , top characters list, is the Salaryman Sorceror. While his damage potential is high, how much you get out of him is linked to timing the secondary button press on several of his attacks. This added layer of complexity holds Nanami back a bit compared to others on this list. If the match is close as time runs out, Nanami is a great fighter to have. In the waning minutes of a match, his damage increases. This helps him amp up the pressure when you need it the most.
9. Mahito
Mahito rewards players who can string combos together as their damage increases after a certain number of hits. Combined with the long reach of his basic melee attacks, you have an engine for destruction waiting to happen. He also has an easier time than other fighters gathering cursed energy. Along with the standard methods, he also gains energy when taking damage.
The other aspect of note about Mahito’s kit is his domain expansion. Unlike other characters who can summon their trademark domains, Mahito can’t be knocked out of his animation by attacks. He will take damage, but once he starts summoning it he won’t stop. Given how long it takes the animation to play out, this makes his Domain hands down the best in the game.
8. Yuta Okkotsu
Yuta’s basic kit is a solid mix of strong attacks that let the fighter hold his own with most adversaries. What helps elevate him over many of the other characters in Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash is how easily he augments his damage output. His Determination ability allows him to imbue his sword with cursed energy, increasing its lethality as long as he has energy. But even more critical is his Rage ability.
Yuta has a special Rage Meter that when full summons Rika to his side until the gauge empties. Rika provides extra follow-up attacks to most of Yuta’s combos, as well as being able to counter-attack enemies when Yuta is hit. Finally, his Awakened Attack, Pure Love, can only be done when Rika is summoned. However, this restriction is worth it as this attack is easily one of the most devastating in the game.
7. Nobara Kugisaki
The first of the range-centric fighters on our Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash characters list, Nobara provides strong support from a distance. She stands over some other ranged attackers like Jogo thanks to the speed of her projectiles. Able to outpace many other range attacks, she trumps other ranged opponents in a showdown. This also helps her interrupt some of the more powerful attacks in the game due to their lengthy animations. Her kit is further helped by the fact that her Awakened Attack, Strawdoll Technique: Hairpin, is one of the few that triggers off of a range attack. This makes it much easier for her to get the drop on enemies with this powerful ability.
6. Yuji Itadori
The star of the show, Yuji provides a great level of melee power. Thanks to his High Gear ability, he has less trouble closing the distance with pesky ranged enemies than other close combat fighters. Once in close, Yuji can string together combos, unloading large sums of damage on his opponents. Getting Yuji’s curse energy to level three is critical, as the character sees his attacks take on a whole new level when he reaches this point.
5. Panda
While Panda is a strong melee fighter all around, it is his Gorilla Transformation ability that lands at the midway point of our Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash list. While in this powered-up form, all of his attacks do damage, rather than just his curses. Also, blocked attacks will deal chip damage. However, you cannot defeat an enemy this way. He is also immune to flinching and his animations cannot be interrupted. All these benefits make Panda a powerhouse in this state so long as his cursed energy lasts.
4. Hanami
Hanami is easily the most versatile range threat in the game. He has great reach, with a combination of attacks that complement each other wonderfully. If he hits with one, the others are almost guaranteed to land, providing loads of damage. He also has a strong defense thanks to his Tree Barrier attack. This move both knocks away melee threats, while also providing a shield against range attacks. This gives Hanami the perfect opportunity to begin his own string of attacks.
3. Suguru Geto
Where Nobara brings speed with her range attacks, and Hanami brings versatility, Geto brings raw power. Whether he’s unleashing swarms of cursed, giant centipedes at opponents or calling down pillars of light with his Cursed Spirit Manipulation: Luminous Pillars ability, Geto provides an oppressive amount of damage. As long as he can keep the enemy outside of arm’s reach, he can pummel his foes with some of the most brutal attacks in the game.
2. Ryomen Sukuna
The King of Curses is a singular force on the battlefield. His powerful strikes hit harder than any other comparable attack in the game. Combined with the fact that Sukuna can heal himself once his cursed energy reaches level two it’s no small wonder why he is so close to the top of our Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash list. The only drawback to all this power is that he will throw his ally around as easily as his enemies.
1. Toge Inumaki
Standing at the top of our list is the cursed speaker Toge. Toge combines great damage with the strongest counters in the game to form a threatening package that can remove any opponent from a battle. While managing his powers takes a little getting used to, once you master the balance the character demands, he can easily wipe the floor with anyone within earshot.
That’s our list of the ten best Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash characters. We hope this list helps you fight your way to victory.
