Race comparison table

Use this table for the first keep-or-reroll decision. It focuses on the races that matter most for PvP, not every race in the full pool.

Thestrals

S

Best For: Players who want the highest all-around PvP ceiling

Why Keep It: Stacks Disaster DoT (5s), +20% Dark Elemental Damage, +10% Attack Power, +30 Skill Speed, and +3% Movement Speed in one roll

When Not to Keep It: Almost never reroll away unless your goal is something other than PvP

Reroll Priority: Always keep

Stellar Ambassador

A

Best For: Flexible builds and players who are not element-locked

Why Keep It: General damage and speed bonuses work across more spell setups than conditional races

When Not to Keep It: Less attractive only if you are already committed to a stronger Fire or Ice path

Reroll Priority: Keep if Thestrals misses

Death Eater

A

Best For: Solo PvP players who want self-sustain between fights

Why Keep It: Restores 5% Max HP per takedown and adds +10% Attack Power — strong value in modes with frequent engagement resets

When Not to Keep It: Halved HP regen penalty hurts in long protracted fights; less attractive in group PvP where kills are not guaranteed

Reroll Priority: Keep if Thestrals and Stellar Ambassador both miss

Fiendish Demon

A- / Conditional

Best For: Fire-focused PvP builds

Why Keep It: Strong value when your loadout is already built around Fire burst windows

When Not to Keep It: Weak as a generic PvP hold if you are not staying on Fire spells

Reroll Priority: Keep for Fire only

Ice Crystal

A- / Conditional

Best For: Ice-focused pressure builds

Why Keep It: High value when the whole build is already pointed at Ice damage and control

When Not to Keep It: Not worth forcing into off-element setups just because the rarity looks strong

Reroll Priority: Keep for Ice only

Werewolf

B

Best For: Early reroll holds and temporary PvP progression

Why Keep It: Accessible stats make it playable while you farm more rerolls

When Not to Keep It: Falls behind once stronger damage scaling and utility matter more

Reroll Priority: Keep early, reroll later

Human

D

Best For: No real PvP niche

Why Keep It: Only worth holding if you literally have zero rerolls left

When Not to Keep It: No combat bonuses, no scaling edge, no PvP reason to stay on it

Reroll Priority: Reroll immediately

PvP tier visual section

This is the fast ladder view. Use it when you want the short answer before reading the detailed keep logic.

S Tier

Thestrals

The clear top PvP roll because it combines pressure, Dark scaling, Attack Power, Skill Speed, and movement in one package.

A Tier

Stellar Ambassador / Death Eater

Safe A-tier keeps when Thestrals does not show up. Stellar Ambassador offers build flexibility; Death Eater adds sustain between PvP engagements.

A- Conditional

Fiendish Demon / Ice Crystal

Strong only when your spell route already matches their element and you know you are staying on it.

B Tier

Werewolf

Good enough to hold early, but not the race most players want to finish on for late PvP.

Skip / Reroll Later

Human

The default starting race with no real PvP upside, so it should be the first thing you try to replace.

Best overall pick

Why Thestrals stays first

Thestrals remains the best PvP race because it does not ask you to choose between damage and movement. The Disaster DoT (5s) adds pressure after every hit, the +20% Dark Elemental Damage boost raises its payoff ceiling, and the extra +30 Skill Speed helps you turn openings into real burst. The +3% Movement Speed on top of all this makes spacing and chase sequences noticeably smoother.

Why it is stronger than a simple stat stick

A lot of races look decent when you read the buffs in isolation, but PvP rewards races that still work after spacing breaks down or the first combo does not finish the target. Thestrals keeps giving value in duels, chase sequences, and reset-heavy fights.

Best alternatives

When Stellar Ambassador is the smarter keep

Stellar Ambassador is the best fallback for players who want a race that works across more builds. Its bonuses do not depend on one element, which makes it the safest answer when you still want to test spells or you are playing around a mixed setup.

See the full race tier list

Death Eater: the sustain alternative for solo PvP

Death Eater trades the all-around utility of Stellar Ambassador for a sharper sustain angle. The 5% Max HP restore per takedown keeps you fighting longer in modes with frequent resets, and the +10% Attack Power gives it real offensive weight. It ranks slightly below Stellar Ambassador for general PvP because the halved HP regen penalty makes it riskier in drawn-out fights, but it is a strong keep when Thestrals and Stellar Ambassador both miss.

Why conditional races are harder to justify

Fiendish Demon and Ice Crystal can look strong on paper, but their real value depends on whether your build already supports Fire or Ice pressure. If your setup is not committed yet, a universal race usually gives you a more reliable PvP floor.

When to stop rerolling

Stop when the upgrade is smaller than the cost

Not every reroll decision should be about hunting the number one race. If your current race already supports the spell path you plan to use, burning more free rerolls can be worse than just starting to practice matchups and refine the rest of your build.

Treat rerolls like a resource, not a wish list

That is especially true for free-to-play players. Once you have a race that gives you a real, repeatable PvP plan, the smarter question is whether more rerolls meaningfully change your outcomes or just delay your progression.

Playstyle recommendations

Use these when you already know how you like to fight, but you still need a race decision that matches your style.

For aggressive burst play

Players who want to win fast trades and force short, high-pressure engagements should still prioritize Thestrals. It gives the cleanest mix of damage layering and movement for starting and finishing fights quickly.

Best pick: Thestrals

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

For flexible all-round play

If you do not want to commit to one element yet, Stellar Ambassador is the easiest race to keep. It gives stable offensive value without locking your whole plan around a narrow spell package.

Best pick: Stellar Ambassador

Backup pick: Werewolf

For sustain-focused PvP

If you play solo and expect frequent kill resets in your PvP sessions, Death Eater gives measurable value. The HP recovery per kill reduces downtime between engagements, and the Attack Power bonus keeps your damage competitive.

Best pick: Death Eater

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

For Fire-focused players

Fiendish Demon becomes worth holding once your PvP route is already centered on Fire burst windows. It is much easier to justify after you know your spell setup is staying there.

Best pick: Fiendish Demon

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

For Ice-focused players

Ice Crystal is strongest when your build is already committed to Ice pressure and control. If you are not there yet, it is usually safer to keep a broad-use race instead of forcing the element too early.

Best pick: Ice Crystal

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

Matchup-based recommendations

These matchup notes are based on public buff information and mainstream race rankings, then rewritten for PvP decision-making rather than strict competitive data.

When you need chase and repositioning

If the matchup is decided by who can keep pressure after the first exchange, races with movement and fast reset value are safer. This is where Thestrals and Stellar Ambassador feel strongest.

Best pick: Thestrals

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

When you need reliable neutral pressure

In fights where you expect several short trades instead of one clean burst, general-purpose bonuses are more stable than conditional element boosts. Broad races make it easier to stay useful even when the combo route breaks.

Best pick: Thestrals

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

When you need sustain in reset-heavy modes

In PvP modes where engagements come in quick waves, Death Eater's per-takedown healing keeps your HP from draining across multiple fights. It is less impactful in 1v1 formats where the halved regen penalty outweighs the kill recovery.

Best pick: Death Eater

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

When you are betting on elemental burst windows

Conditional races make more sense when your whole plan is already built around landing a matching Fire or Ice sequence. If your setup is not locked in, these races become harder to justify as a permanent PvP hold.

Best pick: Fiendish Demon or Ice Crystal

Backup pick: Stellar Ambassador

Use Fiendish Demon for Fire paths and Ice Crystal for Ice paths.

FAQ

What is the best PvP race in Wizard Alchemy?

Thestrals is the best PvP race right now. Public guides consistently rank it first because it combines Disaster DoT (5s), +20% Dark Elemental Damage, +10% Attack Power, +30 Skill Speed, and +3% Movement Speed in one roll.

Is Thestrals worth rerolling for?

Yes, if PvP is your main goal. It is the strongest long-term target, but whether you keep rerolling depends on how many free attempts you still have and how good your current fallback already is.

What race is best for beginners?

For beginners, Stellar Ambassador is usually the easiest strong hold because it works across more builds. Werewolf is also fine early if you just need a playable upgrade while you collect more rerolls.

Read the beginner race guide

Is Death Eater good for PvP?

Death Eater is a solid A-tier PvP race, especially in modes with frequent kill resets. The 5% Max HP restore per takedown and +10% Attack Power give it real value, though the halved HP regen penalty makes it less ideal for long 1v1 fights. It is the best sustain-focused backup when Thestrals and Stellar Ambassador both miss.

When are Fiendish Demon and Ice Crystal worth keeping?

Keep them when your build is already committed to their matching element. Fiendish Demon makes more sense for Fire routes, while Ice Crystal is stronger once you are clearly staying on Ice.

Is Werewolf good early for PvP?

Yes, Werewolf is a reasonable early hold. It is not the race most players want to finish on, but it gives enough early value to justify keeping it while you farm more rerolls.

Which race works best with Dark magic?

Thestrals works best with Dark magic because it directly boosts Dark elemental damage by +20% and still adds other PvP value on top of that. It is the cleanest synergy race for a Dark-focused path.

When should you stop rerolling races?

Stop when your current race already supports the build you plan to use and the upgrade from more rerolls is smaller than the cost. For many players, a stable A-tier result is better than spending every free reroll chasing one perfect outcome.

How should free Race Rerolls be used?

Use free rerolls to get off Human first, then decide whether you are aiming for a broad-use hold like Stellar Ambassador or saving attempts for Thestrals. Free-to-play players should treat rerolls as limited progression resources, not just gamble shots.
