But yeah, tiers exist whether you like it or not. Jin broke Tekken 4 for that very reason. Using the chess analogy, it is generally accepted that a rook has more value than a knight; however, that does not mean that in any given situation a single rook will always cripple the knight. But in most cases, it will. Thus it is useful to know the relative strengths of your pieces when making critical decisions.
