Top 100 Strongest Fairy Tail Characters (2016 Edition)

THIS LIST IS OUTDATED. PLEASE CHECK The 100 Strongest Fairy Tail Characters (Entire Series)! OUT TO VIEW THE MOST UPDATED LIST.


This is the most updated list of our series "The strongest characters in Fairy Tail". Characters are ranked in their prime (Makarov, Ultear etc.) therefore they are not necessarily ranked from their abilities and feats shown in their latest arc.
Please note that characters with unknown abilities and feats are not included in this list.
Also, only canon characters are taken into account.

We will be updating the list throughout the Alvarez Empire Arc.

Last chapter updated: Chapter 511


For this edition, TIFT continues to rank the characters based on their attacking skill, defensive skill, intellect, speed, stamina, and durability. However, we also incorporate the 3-star system to show the characters' specialties in battle.
: The character is a master of this certain feat.
: The character is an expert of this certain feat.
: The character is an intermediate of this certain feat.

Before we begin the countdown from 100 to 1, we would like to review the wizards who did not make the list but still deserves mention.
Ren Akatsuki
Eve Tearm
Hibiki Lates
Vidaldus Taka
Byro
Hughes
Millianna
Sugarboy
Kama
Totomaru

Now, let's start of the countdown with B Class wizards...

B Class Wizards


100. Yukino Agria

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: Celestial Spirit Magic
Rating: 7.2
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Hand to hand combat
Not one of the aces in Sabertooth, but Yukino is definitely showing potential to be of some sort of threat to other guilds.


99. Alzack Connell

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Guns Magic
Rating: 7.2
Potential: A Class
:
: Marksmanship
:
Alzack is definitely underrated, and he may just be the best Fairy Tail wizard in the non-Tenrou team.


98. Nullpudding

Affiliation: Raven Tail
Magic: Needle Magic
Rating: 7.2
Potential: A Class
:
:
: Speed
Shocked Gray in the first round of the Grand Magic Games, but that was it.


97. "The Great Earth" Sol

Affiliation: Phantom Lord
Magic: Earth Magic, Sand Magic
Rating: 7.2
Potential: S Class
:
: Hand to hand combat, Acrobatics
:
Was toying around with Elfman until Elfman decided to go beast mode and wipe his ass.


96. Flare Corona

Affiliation: Raven Tail
Magic: Crimson Hair
Rating: 7.2
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Acrobatics
As much of a Flare fan as we are, Flare hasn't shown anything that makes her stand out from the rest of Raven Tail.

95. "Black Snake" Kurohebi

Affiliation: Raven Tail
Magic: Mimic
Rating: 7.2
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Speed
Probably the dickhead of the whole arc for tearing dog boy's sock, but just like the rest of Raven Tail, he was a disappointment.


94. Ivan Dreyar

Affiliation: Raven Tail
Magic: Shikigami Magic, Illusion Magic, Thought Projection
Rating: 7.2
Potential: A Class
:
:
: Stamina
The biggest disappointment in the whole GMG arc, we still cannot process how this prick is related the Makarov and Laxus. He is at least 10 times weaker than both of them.

A Class Wizards

93. Bisca "Quickdraw" Mulan Connell

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Guns Magic, Requip: The Gunner
Rating: 7.3
Potential: A Class
:
: Marksmanship
:
Bisca impressed us in the latest arc when she teamed up with Erza. She somehow was able to summon Jupiter and blast it well.

92. Simon

Affiliation: Tower of Heaven
Magic: Darkness Magic, Telepathy
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Intelligence, Strength
Oh Simon, if it wasn't for plot, who knows where he will be now. He was honestly the person with the most potential in the Tower of Heaven (excluding Jellal). A master of dark magic, he showed his keen intellect throughout the Erza arc.


91. Fukuro

Affiliation: Death's Head Caucus
Magic: Jet Magic, Absorption Magic
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Speed
An annoying Owl, but nevertheless overpowered Natsu until Gray kicked his ass.


90. Mest Gryder

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Teleportation Magic, Memory Control
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
: Hand to hand combat
:
Words cannot describe how frustrating Mest is at times, especially when he controlled Brandish to attack August stealthily. Hopefully he will learn from his mistakes and lose his trust issues.


89. Cosmos

Affiliation: Kingdom of Fiore
Magic: Plant Magic
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
:
:
We still don't know if she has feelings for Wendy, but she was definitely one of the more reliable Garou Knight.


88. Kamika

Affiliation: Kingdom of Fiore
Magic: Paper Blizzard
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
:
:
Overwhelmed Mirajane until she decided to start attacking. We do want to see more of Kamika in the future as her paper magic is pretty unique.

87. "Angel" Sorano

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Angel Magic, Celestial Spirit Magic
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Stamina, Hand to hand combat
The fanservice from Oracion Seis, Angel is now the third babe to join Crime Sorciere. Hopefully we will see more of her Angel Magic.


86. Yomazu

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Orient Solid Sript, Sword Magic
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
: Swordsmanship
: Stamina
Honestly Yomazu was pretty impressive as he put Gajeel to sleep for the entire Tenrou Arc. He could go against Kain and Zoldeo for the Seven Kin of Purgatory spot in our opinion.


85. Kain Hikaru

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Ushi no Koku Mairi
Rating: 7.3
Potential: S Class
:
: Durability, Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Stamina
He could be a strong opponent if he wasn't immensely stupid. But hey, every arc needs a joke character.


84. Pantherlily (prime)

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Aera, Battle Mode Shift
Rating: 7.5
Potential: S Class
: Swordsmanship, Flight
: Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Intelligence, Durability
Was fighting on par with Gajeel in Edolas, and he could probably damage most of the so-called wizards in Earthland.


83. Doriate

Affiliation: Succubus Eye
Magic: Law of Retrogression
Rating: 7.5
Potential: S Class
:
: Strength
:
Outsmarted by Gray, but he does look like one scary monster, so props to him.


82. "Racer" Sawyer

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Slowing Magic, Vehicle Magic
Rating: 7.5
Potential: S Class
:
: Hand to hand combat
: Speed, Durability, Strength
We don't understand why Racer doesn't practice Jet's magic when he wants to be the Usain Bolt of anime. His Slowing Magic is just a cheap way of tricking other people into thinking that he is actually pretty quick.

81. Cana Alberona

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Magic Card, Fortune Telling
Rating: 7.5
Potential: SS Class
:
:
: Stamina, Durability, Acrobatics
Cana does have loads of potential, but she has yet to show how she's related to the almighty Gildarts as her magic skill right now is just average. She did save all of Fairy Tail from a cursed Elfman though.


80. Evergreen

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Fairy Magic, Stone Eyes
Rating: 7.5
Potential: SS Class
: Flight
:
: Speed, Stamina
Evergreen thought she could defeat Erza... what a joke. But she is still capable of destruction and she is undoubtedly one of the stronger female wizards in Fairy Tail.


79. Bickslow

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Human Possession, Figure Eyes
Rating: 7.5
Potential: SS Class
: Acrobatics
:
: Stamina, Flight
A master acrobat, Bickslow is one of the characters who we all want to see more of. His amusing Human Possession magic is one crazy power and it sucks that Hiro isn't giving him much screen time.


78. Uosuke

Affiliation: Kingdom of Fiore
Magic: Terrain Effect Magic
Rating: 7.7
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Stamina, Durability
Uosuke does look stupid af, but he is miles ahead of the rest of the Garou Knights.


77. Zoldeo

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Human Subordination, Celestial Spirit Magic
Rating: 7.7
Potential: S Class
:
:
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
Zoldeo did look amazing in Capricorn's body, as Gray, Cana, and Lucy could not even touch him. But this greedy bastard met his death when he tried to take over Loke's body.


76. Richard "Hoteye" Buchanan

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Earth Magic, Heaven's Eye
Rating: 7.7
Potential: SS Class
:
:
: Stamina, Durability
Hoteye is definitely the MVP of the Oracion Seis arc. He was fighting equally to Jura, realized his true personality as being a nice guy, and did not even resist getting arrested. We hope to see more of his battles in the future.


S Class Wizards

75. Elfman "Beast Arm" Strauss

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Take Over: Beast Soul
Rating: 7.8
Potential: SS Class
: Strength
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
:
From a boy who is scared of his own magic, Elfman became a real man who would protect his family no matter what. Some people see him as the cause for Fairy Tail to disband but we overlook that as he did show how apologetic he was. Currently, this gym lad is kicking ass in Fiore.


74. "The Great Sky" Aria

Affiliation: Phantom Lord
Magic: Airspace
Rating: 8
Potential: SS Class
: Flight
: Magic power, Speed, Stamina, Durability
Aria's magic power was quite high, but he still got his ass whooped by Erza and Makarov. His whereabouts are unknown but it would be good for him and Jose to make a comeback.


73. Ichiya Vandalay Kotobuki

Affiliation: Blue Pegasus
Magic: Perfume Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: SS Class
: Stamina, Durability, Strength
: Hand to hand combat
The most annoying man in FT, Ichiya still impressed when he defeated Bacchus with his surprising physical strength.


72. "Child Slicer" Ezel

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Tenga Goken
Rating: 8
Potential: SS Class
:
:
: Magic Power, Speed, Stamina, Durability, Strength
Dragon Force Wendy honestly did not look that strong, and Ezel just had to make himself look like a pussy. The weakest of the 9 demons, everyone was disappointed to see his comeback through Neinhart in the Alvarez arc.


71. Ikaruga

Affiliation: Death's Head Caucus
Magic: Sword Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Swordsmanship
: Speed, Stamina, Durability
Just like Aria, Ikaruga is one of those characters we want to see again... and we did, but she's dead. She was such a master in swordplay that she almost had Erza on her knees.


70. Bacchus "The Drunk Falcon" Groh

Affiliation: Quatro Cerberus
Magic: Palm Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: SS Class
: Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Speed, Acrobatics
: Stamina, Durability
One of the best hand to hand combatants in Fairy Tail, Bacchus was actually pretty disappointing in GMG. He got defeated by Elfman, Ichiya, and Sting. But in all fairness, Bacchus wasn't as intoxicated as he should have been when he got ousted by Ichiya and Sting. Hopefully he fulfills his potential someday.

69. Wendy "Sky Sorceress" Marvell

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Sky Dragon Slayer Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: Legendary Class
: Speed, Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat, Flight
Wendy has come a long way, From a shy little girl, she has now become as strong as a typical S Class wizard. Boasting with extremely high potential, she showed everyone that Natsu and Gajeel are in her shadow when they were at her age. 


68. Lucy "Princess" Heartfilia

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Celestial Spirit Magic, Urano Metria
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Intelligence, Stamina, Durability, Strength, Acrobatics, Hand to hand combat, Marksmanship, Swimming
Lucy, the character you either love or hate. We love her, and it's due to many reasons that we can't explain in a short paragraph. Due to her newly acquired Star Dress ability (which is extremely cool and useful), she now possesses physical strength, combat skills, and even marksmanship. At this rate, she could definitely be as powerful as her ancestor Anna.

67. Meredy 

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Maguilty Sense
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Stamina
: Durability
We love Meredy, but Hiro isn't helping when he keeps on showing only glimpses of her. We still do not know how much she has grown since Tenrou.


66. Rustyrose

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Arc of Embodiment
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Magic Power, Stamina, Durability
This one is pretty annoying too, but his magic is one of the most powerful.

65. Zancrow

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Fire God Slayer Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Hand to hand combat
: Stamina, Durability, Strength, Heat resistance
: Acrobatics
Zancrow could have never become as strong as Natsu or even Chelia due to his massive ego. Although just like Natsu, he is a master of a type of fire magic and is a master in hand to hand combat, Zancrow's stupidity would obstruct him from become a Legendary Class wizard.


64. Orga Nanagear

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: Lightning God Slayer Magic
Rating: 8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Stamina
: Magic power, Durability, Strength, Hand to hand combat
Just like Zancrow, Orga is a bit thick in the head. Although he has extremely high, destructive magic power, Orga still lacks battle skills.


63. Freed "The Dark" Justine

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Dark Ecriture, Jutsu Shiki
Rating: 8.2
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Swordsmanship, Flight
: Speed, Intelligence, Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
Everyone knows that Freed is as good as any Fairy Tail wizard. He's smart, quick, good with his hands and swords, and possesses great magical skills. But he will always be in Laxus' shadow since all he does is idolizing him.


62. Erza "Fairy Hunter" Knightwalker

Affiliation: Kingdom of Fiore
Magic: Ten Commandments
Rating: 8.2
Potential: SS Class
: Speed, Intelligence, Stamina, Durability
Knightwalker was almost as strong as Earthland Erza back in the Edolas arc. But now that she can't practice magic anymore, we don't know what to expect the next time we see her and Mystogan. 


61. Lyon "Sub-Zero Emperor" Vastia

Affiliation: Lamia Scale
Magic: Ice-Make, Snow Magic
Rating: 8.2
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Cold resistance
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Strength, Acrobatics, Swordsmanship
Oh Lyon, you were once equal to Gray in terms of magic skill and everything, but you did not really improve in the 7 year time skip and now that Gray has become a skilled Devil Slayer, you can never catch up with him,



60. Juvia "The Great Sea" Lockser

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Water
Rating: 8.2
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Swimming
: Stamina
: Magic power, Durability, Acrobatics
Juvia shocked us when she defeated Keyes. It wasn't an easy battle, but we did not expect one of the weaker members of the main Fairy Tail team to defeat such a scary looking demon with such scary powers. Juvia definitely grew a lot and she would grow even more when Gray accepts her.

59. "Midnight" Macbeth

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Reflector
Rating: 8.2
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Stamina
: Magic Power, Durability, Hand to hand combat, Flight
Now that he is in Crime Sorciere, we hope to see Midnight's growth in magic power. 

58. Rufus "The Minstrel Who Sings to the Red Moon" Lore

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: Memory-Make
Rating: 8.2
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Intelligence
: Magic power, Stamina, Acrobatics
Smart and extremely creative, Rufus needs to work on his memory speed in order to become a top-class wizard.


57. "The Armored" Franmalth

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Absorption Curse
Rating: 8.2
Potential: SS Class
: Stamina
: Magic power, Durability
We expected more from Franmalth when he was in Hades' soul, but he was somehow outsmarted by Natsu and Lucy very quickly.


56. Arlock

Affiliation: Avatar
Magic: Magic Blasts, Barrier Magic, Sacrificial Summoning Magic
Rating: 8.2
Potential: SS Class
: Magic Power, Intelligence, Stamina, Durability
Is Arlock actually strong at all? Or is Natsu just so strong that Arlock looks so weak? We believe that Arlock is strong. I mean, he summoned a huge, powerful-looking God so his magic power should be somewhat great. Natsu just grew too strong under Gildarts' mentoring.


SS Class Wizards


55. "The Black Archbishop" Keyes

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Necromancer
Rating: 8.3
Potential: SS Class
: Speed
: Magic Power, Intelligence, Stamina, Flight
Just like Ezel and Franmalth, Keyes was pretty disappointing. Juvia was too durable for him and with all the powerful curses he had, he couldn't even defeat any Fairy Tail member. But if Keyes' corpses had been there to assist him, who knows what would have happened.

54. "The Immortal" Tempester

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Calamity Curse
Rating: 8.3
Potential: SS Class
: Magic Power, Stamina, Hand to hand Combat
: Speed, Durability, Strength
Tempester gave Laxus a long term lung weakness and probably shortened his lifespan, but what else did he actually do?

53. Rogue Cheney

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: Shadow Dragon Slayer Magic
Rating: 8.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Speed, Stamina, Hand to hand combat, Flight
: Durability, Acrobatics
Rogue was even more disappointing than Bacchus in the GMG. He was overpowered by Natsu one day and Gajeel the other day. Let's hope to see what him and Sting are really made of.


52. Sting Eucliffe

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: White Dragon Slayer Magic
Rating: 8.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Speed, Strength, Acrobatics
The master of Sabertooth, Sting always seemed to be a tiny bit ahead of Rogue. But compared to Natsu and Gajeel, they are both quite weak. Potential wise, they have a lot, but at this rate the 1st gen Dragon Slayers will always be the strongest ones.

51. Jackal

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Bomb Curse
Rating: 8.3
Potential: SS Class
: Stamina, Durability
: Magic Power, Speed, Strength, Acrobatics
A complete badass, Jackal killed everyone except for Mest in the Magic Council. His strength, speed, and magic power matched Natsu's, but unfortunately he had to be humiliated by Happy.

50. "Cobra" Erik

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Poison Dragon Slayer Magic, Sound Magic
Rating: 8.3
Potential: Legandary Class
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Magic power, Strength
It's controversial to put Cobra in the top 50, because this means that he is the only Oracion Seis member other than Brain/Zero to have this honor. Ahead of the twin dragons and Midnight, Cobra earned this as he overwhelmed Natsu and wasn't injured by the Rock Dragon at all.


49. Jiemma

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Blast Magic
Rating: 8.3
Potential: SS Class
: Stamina, Durability, Strength, hand to hand combat
: Magic power
Jiemma really isn't that powerful. A muscular, scary looking guy, he was almost humiliated by Natsu. Even after he became demonic, Sting and Rogue defeated him.


48. Azuma

Affiliation: Grimoire Heart
Magic: Great Tree Arc
Rating: 8.5
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Hand to hand combat
: Engine, Durability, Strength
: Magic power, Acrobatics
If it wasn't for the friendship BS, Azuma would have probably been a bit higher on this list. A master combatant and extremely physically gifted, Azuma overwhelmed Erza and made Mira and Lisanna his toys. 


47. Marin Hollow

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Rules of the Area
Rating: 8.5
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Magic power
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
More known as Brandish's bitch, Marin was actually quite strong magically. He was the one who made Natsu and co look like idiots. Sucks that he just had to be Brandish's little toy.


46. Kagura "White Ribbon" Mikazuchi

Affiliation: Mermaid Heel
Magic: Gravity Change
Rating: 8.5
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Swordsmanship
: Stamina, Durability
: Speed, Intelligence, Strength, Hand to hand combat, Acrobatics
Probably even stronger than Erza in terms of swordsmanship, Kagura also excels in many different fields. But her best moment so far, which is probably the best moment in all of FT, is that surprise kiss with Erza. That one really leaves us hanging.

45. Ultear "The Time Mage" Milkovich (prime)

Affiliation: Crime Sorciere
Magic: Arc of Time, Ice-Make, Possession Magic, Transformation Magic, Though Projection, Telepathy
Rating: 8.5
Potential: Legendary Class
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat, Acrobatics, Cold resistance
: Intelligence, Muscleman, Swordsman
Dang it, Ultear was really one of our favorites, but props to Hiro because she really had to go in order for the plot to develop. In her prime, Ultear was physically and technically gifted. 


44. Zero/Brain

Affiliation: Oracion Seis
Magic: Darkness Magic, Self-Destruction Spell, Organic Link Magic, Requip, Archive, Telepathy
Rating: 8.5
Potential: SS Class
: Intelligence. Durability
: Magic power, Stamina, Strength, Hand to hand combat
Zero was such a badass when he intercepted Hibiki's telepathy. Highly intelligent, he was the one who led Ultear, Jellal, and many more down the dark path. He was a real evil, but Natsu still kicked his ass after a long battle.


43. Mystogan (prime)

Affiliation: Kingdom of Fiore
Magic: Magic Staves, Air Magic
Rating: 8.7
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Intelligence, Strength
One of the fan favorites, Mystogan showed how strong he was when he fought on par with Laxus. Hiro, if you are reading this, please bring Mystogan back.


42. Bluenote Stinger

Affiliation: Orochi's Fin
Magic: Gravity Magic
Rating: 8.7
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Stamina, Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Magic power, Durability
:
Very physically gifted as our star system says so, Bluenote seemed to be at Gildarts and Laxus' level when we first saw him. But he got knocked out by Natsu quite easily in X792, so he actually isn't as strong to everyone's surprise.


41. Mirajane "The Demon" Strauss

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Takeover: Satan Soul, Darkness Magic, Transformation Magic, Sleep Magic
Rating: 8.7
Potential: Legendary Class
: Hand to hand combat, Flight
: Magic power, Speed, Strength
: Intelligence, Stamina, Durability, Acrobatics
For some reason, Hiro doesn't like to make the demon princess look strong. We all know she's one of the strongest Fairy Tail wizards, and she possesses extremely strong magic spells, but she still hasn't defeated anyone particularly strong.


40. Minerva "Neo" Orland

Affiliation: Sabertooth
Magic: Territory, Yakuma Eighteen War Gods Magic
Rating: 8.7
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability, Acrobatics
: Strength, Hand to hand combat, Flight
Minerva is the type which is strong going against a team. But when she is going against a strong individual, she just couldn't seem to go all out. Maybe this is the nature of her magic, but it is still disappointing to see a wizard with godly spells to get her ass handed by Erza more than once.



39. Silver "Absolute Zero" Fullbuster

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Ice Devil Slayer Magic, Telepathy, Teleportation Magic
Rating: 8.7
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Cold resistance
: Stamina, Durability, Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Magic power, Speed, Intelligence
Everyone's favorite dad, Silver showed his mastery over Ice Devil Slayer magic. Without him, Gray would not be as strong as he is now.


Wizard Saint Class Wizards

38. "The Darkness" Torafuzar

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Tenchi Kaimer
Rating: 8.8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Durability, Hand to hand combat, Swimming
: Magic power, Stamina, Strength
: Speed
Everyone loves some Torafuzar. His powerful curses combined with his extreme physical conditions overwhelmed Gajeel and basically endangered the whole Algeria. 


37. "Clear Moon Sky" Seilah

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Macro
Rating: 8.8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Magic power, Speed, Stamina, Durability, Flight
: Acrobatics
Every guy's favorite girl of the show for a while, Seilah impressed when she got the better of Mirajane, but as shown above in our star system, she doesn't have any 3-star specialties... also given by the fact that she was easily defeated when Elfman joined in the fight.


36. "Slave Star Angel" Kyoka

Affiliation: Tartaros
Magic: Sensation Curse, Enhancement
Rating: 8.8
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Stamina
: Magic power, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Speed, Strength, Acrobatics
Kyoka is still the strongest of the 9 demon gates even though she got bitch slapped by Erza. It's just that her defeat was extremely ridiculous and humiliating. She tortured Erza and took away her senses. This looked like a clear victory for Kyoka, but Erza showed her determination and combat skills to end Kyoka.


35. Jose Porla

Affiliation: Phantom lord
Magic: Shade
Rating: 9
Potential: Wizard Saint Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability
: Speed, Intelligence, Acrobatics
Jose is a Wizard Saint, but he did not look too impressive in his battles. He was clearly stronger than Erza back in the Phantom Lord arc, but he didn't actually defeat her. Also, he did not stand a chance against Makarov, but let's hope he makes a return to the show.


34. Ur

Affiliation: /
Magic: Ice-Make, Ice Magic
Rating: 9.2
Potential: Godly Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability, Cold resistance
: Intelligence
Gray and Lyon's teacher, Ur taught the 2 of them almost everything she knew. If it wasn't for her death, even Jellal claimed that she could have been a Wizard Saint. It sucks that Ur's mirage didn't show Ur's complete powers, but it still managed to give both Gray and Lyon immense problems.


33. Ajeel "Desert King" Ramal

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Sand Magic
Rating: 9.2
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina
: Speed, Durability, Strength
: Acrobatics
Ajeel is defeinitely strong, but he really is one of the weakest Spriggan 12. His cockiness and attitude play a part to this, or else he definitely would not have been defeated by Erza that simply.


32. Gajeel "Black Steel" Redfox

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Iron Dragon Slayer Magic, Iron Shadow Dragon Mode
Rating: 9.2
Potential: Legendary Class
: Stamina, Durability, Hand to hand combat
: Magic Power, Speed, Strength
: Acrobatics
Gajeel has been through a lot since he entered the spotlight. His character changed, he started thinking more for himself and for others, and he definitely has gotten a lot stronger. Just like his rival Natsu, Gajeel has great stamina, durability, speed, physical strength, and could fight well with his 2 hands.



31. Wahl "The Adjudicator" Icht

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Weakness
Rating: 9.2
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability
: Flight
: Speed, Hand to hand combat
The only reason why Wahl Icht gave Laxus a hard time is because he is immune to lightning. Yet somehow, Laxus still got the better of him. Just think of how much more difficult it would have been for Wahl if he fought against Natsu or Erza instead.


Legendary Class Wizards


30. Jura "Iron Rock" Neekis

Affiliation: Magic Council
Magic: Earth Magic
Raint: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Durability, Strength, Hand to hand combat
: Speed, Intelligence, Acrobatics
The Wizard Saint is still kicking ass and is still one of the best wizards in Fiore. Hopefully we will see more of why he is considered the 5th strongest in the country.


29. Jacob Lessio

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Stealth, Transport
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina, Hand to hand combat
: Durability, Strength
: Speed
Had a lot of potential to be one of the most entertaining wizards in Fairy Tail due to his stealth, pace, and the nature of his fighting. But Jacob turned out to become more of a joke character.


28. Chelia Blendy (prime)

Affiliation: Lamia Scale
Magic: Sky God Slayer Magic
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina
: Speed, Durability, Acrobatics, Hand to hand combat, Flight
:
I would say that Chelia did fulfill her true potential, giving Dimaria, who is still slightly stronger than Chelia, a hard time. Sucks that she sacrificed her use of magic to save Wendy.


27. Neinhart

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Historia of the Dead
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
:
:
Ajeel, Wahl, Jacob, and now Neinhart. Another disappointment after another. Had such a unique and ridiculously powerful magic yet his ego got the better of him. 


26. Bradman "Grim Reaper"

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Three Seals, Bomb Curse, Tenga Goken, Tenchi Kaimei, Ice Devil Slayer Magic, Thorn Curse
Rating: 9.3

It just keeps coming. The Spriggan 12 is just filled with overhyped characters. Bradman was supposed to be one of the main threats to Fairy Tail. A demon and a user of all of the Tartarus members' magics, he was still on equal terms with Gajeel. Although he really should have killed him but Hiro pulled some BS.

25. "Winter General" Invel

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Ice Magic, Mind Bending
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
Finally, we have someone from the Alvarez Empire who wasn't disappointing (well, compared to the previous ones Invel is definitely more satisfying)! His powerful ice spells overwhelmed Mavis and almost killed Juvia (once again, Hiro pulled some BS). But the thought of Juvia dying pissed Gray off so much that Gray, in all fairness, awakened his true devil slayer form and defeated Invel. Tough luck, Invel!


24. Gray Fullbuster

Affiliation: Fairy Tail
Magic: Ice-Make, Ice Devil Slayer Magic
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Stamina, Cold resistance
: Magic power, Durability, Swordsmanship
: Speed, Intelligence, Strength, Marksmanship
Gray haters can just back off. Character development, awesome battle strategies, amazing fights, inspiring backstory... Gray has all of these covered throughout Fairy Tail. His newly acquired devil slaying magic made him even more powerful and he demonstrated that when he defeated Invel after a close fight.


23. Brandish "Country Demolisher" Î¼

Affiliation: Alvarez Empire
Magic: Mass Manipulation
Rating: 9.3
Potential: Legendary Class
: Magic power, Stamina

: Intelligence, Hand to hand combat
I still don't know how to feel about Brandish yet, she could literally kill anyone without much difficulty, but she hasn't been all that entertaining yet. I guess we'll have to wait.


22. Erza "Titania" Scarlet

The queen of anime and everyone's favorite girl is once again showing her leadership, physicality, flair, and everything awesome in this Alvarez arc. Let's just hope she won't have to depend on BS friendship power like she did in the Tartarus arc.
