It's always good to play top tier characters. I consider myself lucky when characters that fit my playstyle are top tier. Playing worse characters does NOT make you a better player, it forces you to PLAY better, but someone of equal skill/knowledge of game mechanics/ect will prob be able to edge out more close matches with the top tiers.
Characters are top tier for a reason, that said, you should always play the characters you feel comfterble with. Tier charts mean nothing without proficiency anyways.

Playing a worse character CAN make you a better player, if you can use your experiences to make you a better player. It depends on how aware the player is to the opportunities around them.
Leixia is my natural character, even though I played Taki in SC4. Strangely enough. Unfortunately, her 44B was nerfed too (come on Namco...at least let her backstep...)
Can I please has Xianghua's backstep back?
