The tier system wouldn't work for this because once a tier is unlocked it's always unlocked. The progression of merc power needs to work similar to the players and not eventually permanently pass the player (especially not by a significant margin like current Live mercs).
While that would be a nice concept to implement for custom servers, that is not how mercs work on live. It is more important to make sure the design will make them work as they do on live, and then keep/add room for customization where possible for non-legit servers.
