For the love of god, people are so stupid sometimes.
Tiers don't matter if the players facing each other aren't of equal skill either roughly or when taking the matchup into consideration (whether both players know each others' characters well and especially how to play against it with their own character).
There is also such a thing as individual matchups. Even if a characer can beat 5 of these characters, 5 of those can destroy it while they don't destroy the other 5.
Tiers exist. "My" side have shown extensive proof for why they do. The Japanese tierlist changes because they don't really sit down and discuss overall ultimate potential. Their tierlist and rankings is simply based on tournament results (for the most part), which is why it might be a bit skewed.
Not to mention that the Japanese Smash scene is tiny. They don't have that many skilled players. Of course the character rankings (who beats who as whom) will be skewed. They don't have that many people to develop the metagame.
