Who needs to use top tier to place?

She is one of the best characters in the game lol if she's not top tier then idk what to think.
She's not one of the best. She's just pretty much where she should be after the buffs.

She doesn't have 50/50s, so that automatically opts her out of being top tier. :DOGE

Who cares? The presumption that a top tier character is automatically going to be good without a top tier player using them is asinine and retarded. Traveling and playing tournaments is also expensive. Why not increase your odds of winning?

Who's going to pull out Goro at a tournament and why? Would you? No.

For example, obviously 16 Bit doesn't with all his Catwoman placings, or Wound with Shang.

Top players are top players because they're better than the rest, not because of their character.

For every Reo and KDZ there are 1000s of Kabals and Supermans who didn't make it.
But what if they weren't huge cowards and used manly characters? Would they still be where they are?

Let's be real.

If you were getting paid to play this game, and tournaments were your way of keeping your money wouldn't you play a character that made that easier for you? Why make your life harder with a shit-tier character?

That's like telling people they shouldn't learn the match ups because it makes them "cowards" to know what someone else can do.

And btw most top players can make shit-tier characters good because they know their match ups, are experienced, and understand this game better than most, but when you're facing other top players, why would anyone handicap themselves?

The end point of competitive play is to win.

That's like moving to the winning side of an international war. You're alive, but you're a huge pussy, so it doesn't matter.
