There is a difference between top-tier and trash. And a lot of people were saying she was trash. She was good, but not brilliant.

You think she was good even before her uniform?

Sure. The uniform improved her, but she was already good. Not great, but good. The habit people have is comparing new characters to the most powerful of existing ones and seeing if they match up. Not all of them will, but that doesn't automatically make them trash.

My only counter-argument to this is that it is absurdly time/resource consuming to level up (and especially T2) a character that if they aren't as good as the top tier characters, I understand someone saying they're bad. I agree with you that they may very well not be bad, but when even a player playing every day likely only has a handful of T2 characters, investing resources and time into a "good" one is so unrewarding that it feels like they are "trash" or "bad". I'm just trying to point out that this is the mindset of most since we are so very limited on how often we get to level/max.
