I'm not a Sublime user yet, but I've always been interested in it's interface. I'm trying to figure out if it's a replacement for a text editor like VIM or a heavier IDE like IntelliJ?

It's a replacement for VIM so good that in most cases the IDE becomes unnecessary, because the notion of 'project' and various GoTo and search commands solve all navigation needs. It even has a rudimentary build system support. I talk about c++ and Python though, where no 'real cool' IDE exists. Not so for statically-typed reflexive languages like Java and C#, where your well-informed IDE can make code transformations of arbitrary complexity.
