There's nothing on the other games' tier lists that shows how much better the #1 character is compared to the bottom character either.

You're missing my point completely. You keep talking about "the community" as if it is some monolithic entity with a single opinion that is thoroughly established, which is completely ludicrous. | |||
*''the community as a whole, not just myself, believes that certain characters are the best in the game.'' | |||
*''My plan was to list all the characters people consistently rank as "top tier."'' | |||
*''Our "source" for "top tier characters" can be the general consensus of the community members'' | |||
*''This is not "definite," as we are saying '''what the community thinks,''''' | |||
Do you not see the problem here? And if you don't understand the point about the difference between "so-and-so is good according to Professional Player" and "so-and-so is ranked Xth out of 50 according to established committee", I don't know how else to explain it to you.
