THE tier list doesn't change daily. A tier list does, but that is not the "official" tier list made by the SBR which is listed on this website. Tier lists are generally constructed by the strongest players; randomly generated tier lists from random players tend to be somewhat less reliable, though it varies.

Honestly arguing over tier lists is mostly pointless, save in giving general guidance on which characters are perceived by the community as being better/worse; understanding the why of the tier list is vital to getting a good grasp on things.
