Best Hunger Games characters

Katniss wins 75% of her duels and tops the Hunger Games ranking ahead of Finnick.

Finnick trails Katniss by 72 ELO points at rank 2, while Peeta holds third with 1311 points. The sharpest divide in the ranking separates Johanna from Beetee: 154 ELO points push the two allies apart, marking the clearest fault line between the community's preferred fighters and the rest. Johanna's edge over Beetee underscores the gap between combat-ready tributes and their more technical counterparts. At the bottom, Wiress sits at rank 7 with 906 ELO points and a 15% win rate, suggesting that voters favor alliance members who take direct action over those who work behind the scenes. Mags ranks just above her at 1081 points, rounding out a field where survival instincts and battlefield presence drive the voting.

The ranking draws from 411 duels decided by 37 players, with 7 contenders competing for favor. Updated on 12 October 2026, the list reflects a clear preference for the series' most visible rebels. If you have a favorite alliance member who deserves a higher spot or want to challenge the current order, cast your vote and shape the next update. Every duel shifts the rankings, and every voice counts in determining which tribute commands the most loyalty.

How this ranking is computed

Every duel won lifts a contender and every loss drops them, by an amount that depends on the opponent's strength: beating the leader is worth more than beating the last. It is an ELO, the same principle as in chess. Duels are not drawn at random — an adaptive entropy sort puts the least predictable match-ups first, which settles the ranking far faster than a full round robin. A worldwide ranking is only published past 30 completed plays. Known limit: a contender who has faced few opponents keeps an approximate score, and the bottom of the table moves more than the podium.
