Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is an iconic game that merged the expertise of Square Enix and Nintendo, creating an unforgettable adventure that combined Mario’s world with classic RPG elements. The game features a memorable cast of playable characters, each bringing their unique abilities and personalities to the team. Let’s rank them from worst to best, keeping in mind that “worst” in this context still means pretty great, considering the small but beloved roster.

6.Mallow

Mallow, the cloud boy who thinks he’s a tadpole, offers a narrative full of whimsy and surprise. Unfortunately, in terms of gameplay, he ranks at the bottom. He starts off weak and although his magic attacks like ‘Thunderbolt’ can hit all enemies, his overall combat prowess is overshadowed by other characters as the game progresses.

5.Princess Toadstool (Peach)

Peach may strike players as one of the weaker characters due to her lackluster offensive abilities early on. However, her healing skills are invaluable. ‘Group Hug’ and ‘Therapy’ keep your party in fighting shape especially during long boss battles or treks through dangerous areas.

4.Bowser

The King of Koopas finds himself an unlikely ally in this adventure. While he has high attack power and impressive defense statistics making him a tank in battle, Bowser lacks versatility. His limited magical abilities and slower speed mean he is not always the best choice for every combat scenario.

3.Luigi

While Luigi doesn’t appear as a standard playable character in Super Mario RPG, his inclusion in various promotional materials and a cameo suggests an alternate reality where he might have been a part of the adventure. His well-rounded abilities as seen in other games could position him well in middle-ground effectiveness.

2.Geno

The mysterious star warrior Geno brings both firepower and magical finesse to the party. With skills like ‘Geno Beam’ and ‘Geno Whirl’, he is often celebrated for his offensive potential that can make short work of even tougher enemies.

1.Mario

Topping our list is none other than Mario himself – after all, it’s his game! As a balanced character with robust offensive and defensive capabilities, he’s useful in practically every situation you can find yourself in within the game. With signature moves like ‘Super Jump’ and ‘Ultra Flame’, Mario is not only an iconic figure but also the most versatile character in Super Mario RPG.

Despite some being more powerful or versatile than others, every character adds depth and dimension to this classic title, contributing to its lasting legacy as one of the greatest games for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
