Question about the Tiering System

[Zhaxean]

There' still some stuff that I don't get. The greatest of them is: why is a character from a tier not always able to defeat a character from a lower tier? For example: Mario and Luigi managed to defeat Dreamy Bowser, a 2-B tier entity. Why weren't they considered worthy of entering the 2-B tier, since they can tank attack and deal damage to a 2-B entity?

The reason for this is that characters who could destroy only a wall can have hax that can influence characters who can destroy universes and such.

I see, but why don't hax let them go higher in the list then? Is it because they may be too specific for a certain situation?

Outlier + Plot-Induced Stupidity.

well they do let them get higher in tier example: GER is 8-C physically but is high 3-A with hax

They don't use hax against Dreamy Bowser, Mario and Luigi don't scale because the feat is an outlier.

What do you mean? (Sorry, English is not my mother tongue)

 

[ShadowWarrior1999]

An outlier is a feat or anti-feat that is beyond or below what is shown to be the normal capabilities of a character.

Mario and Luigi defeating a 2-B in base is an outlier since they regularly struggle against tier 4 enemies.
