So, i believe Ain's profile should be getting straight up a 2-A tier instead of "At least 2-B, likely 2-A", here are some of my reasonings for it (also can be viewed as a way to explain a bit more of why his AP is like this than what currently is on the profile):
We have confirmation that the Elsword verse has "at least" countless to possibly infinite alternate timelines via this statement from one of the web novels:
"This universe is now mine." It wasn't an exaggeration, it was just a simple truth. Who could possibly protest when someone who could freely wield time and space was saying he wants to rule the universe? Anyone who could stop him had fallen and no one was left. It was the time to achieve his long-cherished ambition. Those eternally long fights, eternally long pains, eternally long days. Countless times and times again, all those short-lived events. He remembered all those hundreds, thousands, ten thousands of years of time that has flowed without an exception. He had no choice but to remember. He came this far for that sake."
However that is further added to with the fact that, as mentioned in Add's Mad Paradox profile, both this job path and another of his Job Paths, which are Supergeniuses, simply come to the conclusion by trying to calculate the space-time coordinates of his original timeline that it is impossible to go back to a exact parallel world/timeline once you leave it, and that trying to would always inevitably making you end up in a new one, which i believe would mean there is a infinite number of parallel worlds/timelines.
Now, to further explain Ain's Tier in case, Ain in his Herrscher Path is where he becomes one with Henir's Realm and power. Henir's Realm is the realm of void, endless chaos and nothingness/nonexistence, it predates (Henir's very power was used in the creation of the material realm/existence) and encompasses all of existence while simulteneosly being outside of it (Referenced on how once Ain becomes one with it, he achieves complete omnipresence, existing everywhere and nowhere at the same time). In addition to this, it's also stated that nature of Henir's realm are the pure aspects of Henir (the being that created it), one of those being the concept of Infinity, meaning that Henir's realm is also a infinite void.
Several of Ain's abilities also mention the concept of "ending the world", which given the further context above and below, world in these context mostly measn something like "what exists/existence" rather than just "universe" or "planet". One of his skills also straight up mention him "erasing the (existential) realm and replacing it with the void".
Henir is also stated as being "the end of all things" and "the destination that all existence must turn to" (The latter veing something that was cut from the english version of his background, the translated version of the original one can be seen here seen here) further confirming how Herrscher, as the embodiment of Henir's realm and power, would be 2-A.
