Tarkan, you need to lose this obsession with "tiers." There is no way that you could possibly prove this theory, ever. Even if you were to take statistics from tournaments on who the finalists use, that proves nothing. Some of the best players don't even participate in tournaments, or even go to the arcades, for that matter. In fact, some of the best players probably sit around at home and practice insane combos on their Dreamcast all day and all night. But you'd never know it, would you? For all you know, they might very well be able to beat Magneto or Sentinal with ease, with one of the characters you consider to be "low tier."

What I find ironic is, most of the characters that you consider to be "high tier," are the ones that most of us regard as cheap (e.g. Storm, Cable). Giving "cheap" an honorable sounding name like "high tier" doesn't change what it is. And if you were truly as good of a player as you try to portray yourself, then you wouldn't need only "high tier" characters in your team, would you? A truly skilled fighter should be able to use everyone equally well. I'm with Karma 100%.
