Every Ralph skill in both skill modes, at its highest level. Only what differs is listed; anything not mentioned is the same in both.
Classic+
The classic skill trees, kept up to date: it keeps getting new skills and quality-of-life changes, and it can use Talents.
Legacy
The NextGen skill trees as they were before the classic restore. No Talents, no new skills or quality-of-life changes, and still subject to damage balancing.

How to read this page
Every skill is compared at its highest level; the level table under a card has the rest.
Damage numbers are base damage, before your stats, gear, crits or buffs: the average of each hit's range, added up for one target every hit reaches. Your STR and gear raise both modes alike, so the comparison holds.
Hits marked × ATK scale with your weapon's attack instead of a fixed number (inside a transformation, × 5.2 more), so they cannot be compared with a fixed number directly.
Projectiles that pass through enemies hit the same target again after a short delay. They count as often as that delay allows while they cross a normal-sized monster; ones that stay put or circle count for their whole lifetime.
Invincible: attacks pass through you. Damage immunity: hits of the listed types do nothing, not even knockback. Super armor (the game's "immunity to immobilization"): you still take damage but are not stunned or knocked down; a skill's own super armor is off in PvP.
Times are seconds from the moment the skill starts. ▲ marks the side with the edge on a row, when there clearly is one.
