    I'm actually a little unsure for Summoner, as they can be hard countered by One Ilm Punch, and with the recent changes to somersault I feel this makes them a bit under the highest tier. They're still very strong, but they have the potential to be completely shut down before they can even start their burst game. They can also be shut down late into the match and with free casting their burst isn't anywhere near as scary as it was before.

    Most times I've been bursted by a Summoner after the patch they just weren't able to secure the kill before I was healed or healed myself through it (being a monk), I feel if a class has hard counters or can be shut down that easily they can't really be the highest tier job.

    Summoner burst can also be shut down by Purify(which every job has access to), something the other classes in S- Tier lack. Purifying wont help against MNK,WHM, or BLM, as they either have enough CC and differing Diminishing returns to make it moot or useless. Or their burst isn't defined by dots and debuffs. Paladin can also Stun on a GCD so timing purify to shut them down is much harder than it is to time against a Warrior , Holmgang Vs Shield Bash.
