You are. And apparently, so am I.
Lol, my personal tier list (which I still am struggling with placing a bunch of characters in) HEAVILY conflicts with like every one I've seen. It's been very weird seeing what people say in SCVI, because it's almost always some wack stuff.
People are still placing Xianghua and Raph low, even, and I'm here thinking they're in like the top ~5-6 and people are sleeping on them HEAVILY.
This game is really close, IMO. There's only 2 characters I consider stand-out right now in the tools they have (Nightmare's not one of em), and the upcoming patch could bring everything even closer for all I know. SCVI characters feel like they are super close in balance, and it really comes down to some matchups being hard to deal with.
As far as Talim, I think she's pretty OK when it comes to effectiveness right now. She certainly feels like she has the tools to compete, which is FAR more than I could say about her in SCIV. I don't think she's top tier, but she's certainly not bad.
