Best Inazuma Eleven season 2 captains

Xene leads the Inazuma Eleven season 2 captain ranking with 1463 ELO points over 83 duels, ahead of Shawn and Mark.

A 92-point gap separates Xene from runner-up Shawn, the largest divide in the top ranks. Xene wins 71% of duels, narrowly edging Shawn's 70% win rate despite fewer total matchups. Mark claims third at 1360 ELO with a 60% win rate across 81 duels, while Gazelle and Torch round out the top 5. The podium reflects a clear hierarchy among captains, with Xene's dominance rooted in consistent victories. At the bottom, Kik struggles with just 760 ELO and an 8% win rate over 60 duels, suggesting the character fails to resonate with voters. Sue and Luckyman hover above at 956 and 990 ELO respectively, both posting identical 31% win rates that mark them as divisive picks within the community.

This ranking draws from 1504 duels cast by 39 players across 14 contenders, updated on 12 October 2026.

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.
