well if they dont participate they wont be on the list, but there are many players that aren't even accounte for because they aren't active - so the tier list is mostly just of the recent events of the active players
otherwise guys like odlov, scheczudio, fistoflife, maldiluna, fatulbrown, rkg, exbattle or whoever will not be apart of the list because we can't gauge their skill at the game anymore at this stage - although the were good or the best of whatever their prime time
so if the trend right now is tier lists, no matter what group of players you put together it will always be the opinion of a minority group and we can't say that that is the most accurate - from what i saw everyones list are all over the place except for a few obvious names because of their recent accolades
tl;dr - if we want to make this tier list thing the most unbiased, the active players would have to be willing to prove their tier
there should ofc be some players who start at a higher tier based on placement in the large important tourneys for the past (3 years?). and maybe only top players are invited to play - we dont really need to know that gamer5859 is F tier
