Top 10 Fighting Game Players — March 2025
🥇 1. SonicFox (Dominique “SonicFox” McLean)
Why: Leading the overall global fighting games ranking with by far the highest accumulated points in 2025, primarily from Mortal Kombat 1 but also from cross-title activity. That consistency makes them (arguably) the strongest in the FGC heading into spring.
🥈 2. Leshar
Why: #1 ranked Street Fighter 6 player on DashFight’s leaderboard — a game with the largest competitive scene and player base in 2025, reflecting consistent performance in majors and online brackets.
🥉 3. MenaRD (Saul “MenaRD” Leonardo II)
Why: SF6’s #2 player in accumulated points, with strong placements behind Leshar — historically one of the most elite Street Fighter competitors alive.
4. Kakeru
Why: #3 Street Fighter 6 on the leaderboard with consistent deep runs and strong tournament placings, making him one of the top SF6 competitors going into spring.
5. Blaz (Derek “Blaz” Blaz)
Why: #4 on Street Fighter 6 leaderboard; a rising force in SF6 with notable results regionally and online pushing him into top-10 contention.
6. Onlinecale213
Why: Strong presence in Mortal Kombat 1, second only to SonicFox on that game’s global ranking — keeps them high in overall FGC standing.
7. Kanimani
Why: Third in Mortal Kombat 1 accumulating points; consistent performance at early events places him solidly in the broader top-10 mix.
8. Noahtheprodigy (Noah Solis)
Why: Ranked among top Street Fighter 6 players, showing strong competitive depth.
9. Xiaohai (Zeng Zhuojun)
Why: Legendary multi-game competitor with big results across KOF / Fatal Fury and SF6 circuits; although a bit lower on point totals than current top-8 SF6 names, his broad resilience and historical high placements keep him in elite company.
10. Sahara
Why: Appeared in the global top-10 overall leaderboard runner list and maintains steady tournament results across fighting titles — earns the tenth spot by accumulated points.
