Best Hoyoverse games

Genshin Impact wins 75% of its duels and tops the Hoyoverse ranking ahead of Honkai Star Rail.

The podium reflects a clear hierarchy among Hoyoverse titles. Genshin Impact dominates with 1343 ELO points across 51 duels, while Honkai Star Rail holds second place at 1258 ELO after 74 duels. The sharpest drop in the ranking separates these two leaders from the rest: 157 ELO points divide Honkai Star Rail from Honkai Impact 3rd, which sits at 1101 ELO with a 35% win rate over 65 duels. Zenless Zone Zero trails just behind at 1098 ELO, nearly tied with Honkai Impact 3rd after 66 duels and posting a 36% win rate. The tight contest at the bottom suggests the community remains divided on these two entries, while the top two command more decisive support. Genshin Impact's 75% win rate confirms its standing as the preferred choice, though Honkai Star Rail's 58% win rate shows it holds its own against the competition.

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.
