Board breakdown
Fujin, Cetrion, Geras and The Joker hold the S tier in the RankedBoost grade for the final balance update of Mortal Kombat 11 as of November 2026.
Select a face to open that character's card on the board.
The Joker is the guest fighter worth learning, and the only guest who reaches S. Pass on Rambo, who sits in D, the lowest band. On the base game the guests come in DLC packs, so you need those packs or Ultimate to play them.
Kombat Pack 1 is the deepest pack: three of its six fighters reach A or better, and Spawn also has strong tournament results. Aftermath brings Fujin in S, but the rest sits in B. Kombat Pack 2 tops out at B, so skip it.

Shao Kahn and Rambo are the only two fighters in D, so leave them on the select screen. Rambo is the steeper climb, with a D on all three of his card grades.
