I saw this thread a few weeks ago but thought i would wait to weigh in until it was revealed what Gerard's 'M- The Miracle' could do.

1- Yhwach, Haschwalth [While inheriting Yhwach's powers] (I doubt anyone would argue against this placement. Not with current information, at least)

2- Pernida (Honestly, I'm fairly sure Mayuri was the only person actually capable of neutralizing Pernida. May have been the first to fall of the Schutzstaffel, but probably the hardest to beat.)

3- Haschwalth [normally] (I hesitate to place him here because I'm not sure what his power is exactly. a common theory is that he has 'The Balance,' which would be fitting, but I originally theorized that he had 'The Breaker' allowing him to destroy anything with ease, be it Cang's 'Iron,' or Ichigo's Zangetsu. Depending on what his power is, he may deserve a higher or lower spot on this list.)

4- Lille (I might get a lot of heat for placing him below Pernida and Haschwalth due to how strong he seemed when fighting Shunsui, but he really has a lot of weaknesses, if you think about it. First, while 'The X-Axis' prevented him from being hurt from normal attacks and Kido, he was still affected by Shunsui's Bankai, which directly affected him, which means abilities that don't require touching him still work, but that's not his biggest weakness. His biggest problem is that he can still see and hear, which means that light and sound still affect him. Combined with the fact that he has to keep his eyes open for X- Axis, and all you have to do to win is use a very bright light. Either he goes blind, or he closes his eyes, which means his ability is gone. Win-Win. Not to mention Light and Sound based zanpakuto, Like Rose and Aizen's.

5-Gremmy (While he should have been unbeatable, due to his reality altering powers, he wasn't able to affect Kenpachi directly in their fight, which leads me to believe that for some reason he can't directly affect people with higher Reiatsu than him, which, when combined with his decidedly limited imagination, keeps him lower on this list than one might think.)

6- Askin (While we haven't seen everything he can do, he seems pretty strong, and depending on how clever he is, Deathdealing could do some major damage)

7- Gerard (So much disappointment. I had so many theories for what his 'Miracle' could do. My favorite was that it would always find a way to save him, like how the Auswahlen revived him after death. Like some kind of indirect reality altering effect that would make him invincible. But Damage-based size and strength growth? Its like he's the second coming of Yammy, and I bet he'll drop to Byakuya just as easily. I'd place him much lower if it wasn't for the fact that he's a Schutzstaffel.)

8- Bazz-B [or Bazzard Black, probably the coolest name in the universe] (I might be biased, but this guy seems beastly strong, probably the strongest Non-Schutzstaffel Sternritter after Gremmy)

9- Bambietta (I really liked Bambi, and wish that she had gotten to show her stuff against someone who wasn't temporarily invincible (Komamura) or had already solved her powers (Mayuri). Explosions are really powerful)

10- Mask [I don't particularly have strong ideas of how the rest of these should be placed, but this is my best reckoning.] (seemed really strong against Renji, and curbstomped two captain, even if his victory against Rose was because Rose was stupid.)

11- Liltotto (Not much to go on, but she ate PePe, and seemed rather skilled sooo...)

12- Quilge Opie (Between 'The Jail' and Sklavari, he more than makes up for his less than stellar combat abilities.)

13- Nianzol Weizol (Might have been a problem if he was more alert. How does one even covertly swap someone's clothing? Senjumaru is impressive. He did seem to lack any real offensive abilities, though.)

14- Giselle Gewelle (Marching out the Zombies. I think she may have been unkillable? well, not against God, but...)

15- Äs Nödt (Fear powers were pretty strong, but he seemed mostly middle of the road power to be honest.)

16- Robert Accutrone (ignoring my theory that we haven't seen the last of this guy (I mean, why was he the only one who was stripped down to the bone by the Auswahlen? Pretty Suspicious. Plus we still don't know what the N means) he seemed decently strong, but nothing special)

17- NaNaNa Najahkoop (Meh.)

18- Cang Du (Double meh.)

19- Candice Catnipp (Was't she a brand new Sternritter? Pretty good for a newbie.)

20- Berenice Gabrielli [I like her hair] (She may have been powerful if she fought someone who let her talk for a while. Guess talking isn't always a free action, huh, Berenice?)

21- PePe Waccabrada (Look, man that kinda thing didn't really work for Zommari, why would it work better for you? and against the same opponent, no less. For shame. Poor Byakuya.)

22- Meninas McAllon ( Super Strength? in a world where everyone already has Super strength? You aren't special, Meninas.)

23- BG9 (I'm not even sure you're actually a Sternritter. Or dead, for that matter. Can machines die? Can they get Soul imprints? What even starts with K? anyway, he failed against one Bankai Missle. Barragan took 2 like a champ. Loser)

24- Driscoll Berci (So sad. How many Shinigami did he say he killed for that abysmal level of power? 1000? what a waste.)

25- Jerome Guizbatt (the lowest of the low. Died off-screen, with a terrible ability, no less. Sonic Scream? What is this, a comic book? Ironically, that would still work against Lille. Maybe I should rate him higher for that?)

You may notice the Lloyd brothers, Shaz, and Uryu are missing. That's because I know nothing of Shaz, (though I hear he was featured in a side story book?) And Royd, Loyd, and Uryu are kind of Wild cards.

Uryu is impossible to place without knowing more about where his powers are now. And if his A also stands for 'The Almighty'

Loyd can copy appearance and Power, but seems to suffer from a skill penalty due to the unfamiliar body. His power may have been unstoppable if he could have cloned someone like Gremmy, though

Royd instead gets appearance and memories, which seems like the shorter end of the stick, except he seemed to fare so much better than his brother. I believe this is because, while his power didn't go up, He inherited not only Yhwach's memory of incredibly high-powered Quincy techniques, but also Yhwach's 'muscle-memory' which improved his non reiatsu based powers like Blut.
