GENTLEMAN, THIS IS DEMOCRACY MANIFEST
is a Community Contributoris a Tiering Contributoris a Contributor to Smogon
hello everyone and welcome to the uhu nfepl iv power rankings. i have questioned and graded all 10 competing teams on a series of questions alongside my good friend Rav3ndan. i decided to go with the following, unbiased categories that clearly have no relation to me or my personal hobbies:

1- hottest food take
these will not be rated on the merit of the opinion itself and whether or not i agree, but will instead be graded purely on how "spicy" the food take is; is it a contentious opinion sure to start a debate? or would most people be apathetic either way? exceptions were admittedly made for particularly weird opinions.
2- discord server quality
what emotes do they have? more importantly, can pazza ping everyone on the server whenever he wants? these are the questions i will be answering here.
3- team aesthetic, naming ability, general swagger of their mascot
this is self explanatory. for example, if a team had picked out a funky name with a cool mascot they'd be rated highly.
4. i asked them for a link to a song
5. i asked them for their favourite, or top 3 favourite anime
i'm not actually going to be judging these because they're substantially more subjective than the other categories, but i thought it'd be fun to include.

now, coming in at #10...


songs: Cheryl: Doja Cat - Say So | Miyami: Carly Simon - You're So Vain
anime: Cheryl: WataMote is the single greatest anime and also the only one I've watched in the last 3 years so | Miyami: Yu-Gi-Oh! GX

hottest food take: 2/10
Cheryl: pickles r bad
Miyami: Poutine is bad and wastes good fries (I'm canadian so this qualifies)

roselias had by far the least inspired and most unhot takes of them all. when i asked this question i was hoping for a question that would invoke either fierce passion or unbridled rage upon reading. "pineapple on pizza is fine / not fine" being a good example, albeit one that loses marks for being incredibly unimaginative.
personally, i don't know many people who feel anything other than neutrality towards them. i raised the question of poutine in three different servers, and while there were opinions on either side, it did not start a single argument or meaningful debate. these barely qualify as takes

discord server quality: 1/10



@everyone permissions were given to everyone and this happened.
Tack :] went to the effort of setting their entire server up and somehow cheryl managed to undo most of these and break it again. to their credit, they do have the largest number of emotes out of everyone, but most of them are also incredibly samey.


the 13 pings secured them a spot at the bottom of this rank no matter what else happened.

team swag: 2/10

after much discussion with my friend Rav3ndan we concluded that roselias were the second to least cool team of them all. the name just feels uninspired and roselia is a pretty ugly mon when you properly look at it with the stumpy legs and green tricorne head.

:ss/corsola-galar:
they don't have any fanart, understandably, so this'll have to suffice.

song: King Leo V: Taylor Swift - You Belong With Me
anime: King Leo V: Death Note

hottest food take: 1/10
i'm actually not going to go through each question one by one for the corsolas, i think it's funnier to just present them in one big chunk. with the exception of this log:
[00:05] uhuhuhu7: hottest food take?
[00:05] +King Leo V: Chicken dum biryani

if he stuck to this answer he'd be right up there at 10/10 because i found this really funny but after i clarified the question it became a lot more boring:

[00:06] uhuhuhu7: no i meant hot take as in
[00:06] uhuhuhu7: controversial opinion
[00:06] uhuhuhu7: relating to food
[00:07] +King Leo V: Burger sucks

burger is just a generic popular food and i didn't feel like leo had any real conviction here. he also got dragged down hard by thimo's answers:


honestly i expected better quality memes from thimo. the shrek twinky lowkey isn't even that bad of a food as soon as you realise they just shoved some green food colouring into a low-tier american snack. rick roll is a classic but i thought it'd be funnier to just not do the thimo freestyling thing.

discord server quality: 5/10

there isn't really anything wrong with their server, it's just... there. it works. a perfectly average score for a perfectly average PL server that clearly isn't intended to be used until the draft is over.

team swag: 3/10

"cursed corsolas". "cursolas". the name is just boring as fuck lmao they've literally pulled the name from corsola's natural evolution and corsola-galar has no drip whatsover. mon is dying.


songs: BP: Jon Bellion - Adult Swim | Toy Time King: Tia - Deal With The Devil
anime: BP: Cowboy Bebop, Parasyte The Maxim, Hunter X Hunter (2011) | Toy Time King: Tengan Toppa Gurren Lagann, Gintama, Hajime no Ippo

hottest food take: 4/10
BP: Meat is overrated
TTK: hottest food take is that strawberries are absolutely abhorrent and they deserve to be burned

honestly not much to say about these, they're just the better version of the roselia takes. ttk clearly cares about the strawberry thing more than most people who would simply say he is very very wrong and move on, because strawberries are pretty great, but this take at least generates a quick reaction. bp lets him down though. "meat" is so vague and honestly i don't think even he believes it. nobody likes haggis. meat is very good but there's a lot of awful meat out there and everyone seems to acknowledge this, so i don't see how anyone could even entertain the idea of it being overrated. this isn't really a hot take in my eyes, just a confusing one that could probably do with some elaborating.

discord server quality: 2/10

i hate to spoil the cabbage here, but pretty much every server from 2/10 through to 6/10 is of roughly the same quality, but this one goes to the bottom of the pack because of their awful emotes.



to clarify, the teams rated 5/10 through 7/10 have no emotes whatsoever. these just actively detract from the server, with poggaroo being the only saving grace.

team swag: 1/10

i don't think i really need to go into this one. "burning heart brionne" has the worst mascot, the worst prefix, and maybe this is too pedantic but i don't like how brionne is apparently the plural of brionne unlike every other team here.


song: neomon: Notion - Hooked (Bou Remix) | sans: Agaisnt Me - Paralytic States
anime: neomon: Haikyuu, One Piece, Diamond no Ace | sans: FLCL, Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica, Serial Experiments Lain

hottest food take: 3/10
neomon: I rly like cheese with marmelade
sans: dont really have any food takes so here's a candy 1: sweet tarts are top 1

unfortunately sans did not have any food takes, but cheese & marmalade is just weird enough as a combination to carry her to a reasonable 3/10. there's not really anything to talk about here but i have never heard of this combination ever being attempted. maybe i'm the weird one.

discord server quality: 7/10

as mentioned in the brionne rankings, this server has no emotes, or anything special. but they're the only team with unique roles, fully committing to the mafia gimmick by referring to their opponents as "the police" with the most active pre-draft server, barring maybe the morgrems. they also have the best tryout system of all the teams.

team swag: 8/10

i personally had the monfernos at #1 - the name is the best of them, they have the best motif, and their mascot is pretty cool too. rav ranked them somewhere in the middle with a 6/10 rating so we met in the middle here. fr though monferno is a top goon.


song: Jett: Jon Bellion - All Time Low. I didn't even realise this song's like 4 years old now but it's still amazing.
impressively this is the second time jon bellion has appeared.

marjane was unable to pick just one song:
[22:57] +Marjane: ok i narrowed it down
[22:57] +Marjane: to 5
[22:57] uhuhuhu7: ok
[22:58] +Marjane: so just gonna send them 5
[22:58] +Marjane: they're not even my most liked songs
[22:58] +Marjane: but something i think u could also vibe to

i said i wasn't going to rate songs but marjane gets bonus points for putting far more effort into this than any other manager i asked. this was unexpected and very nice. i'm also not sharing the songs because they're mine now. :)

anime: Marjane: No Game No Life, Attack on Titan, Claymore | Jett: I'm not a fucking weeb LOL. Spirited Away was a p good movie tho.

hottest food take: 5/10
Jett: Pineapple on Pizza isn't even that bad but more specifically Hawaiian pizza is actually pretty nice; most people have never even tried it and just say it's bad cause of the internet and are a bunch of sheep.
[22:34] +Marjane: tbh i don't really eat anything remotely suspicious but i guess something a bit odd would be bread and french fries
[22:34] uhuhuhu7: a chip butty?
[22:34] +Marjane: idk if that was the answer you were looking for but
[22:35] +Marjane: yes but with baguette
[22:35] +Marjane: and no ketchup

jett had the answer of a traditionalist but loses marks for the lack of creativity. hawaiian pizza is such a tired topic. it got Rav3ndan angry though so i can't be too harsh. marjane didn't really have a hot take, but just eats weird food sometimes. chips in a baguette with no sauce sounds like it'd be drier than anything i've eaten in years. anyway, these hot takes are respectable but are mostly this high up because of the disappointing answers below it rather than any big amount of spice.

discord server quality: 8/10
he most active server, kitted out with a fanart channel where pazza dumps creepy morgrem art and and two channels where people just spam these emotes:


these are their only particularly good emotes imo, but that alone is enough to take them up to an 8/10 compared to the other servers.

team swag: 6/10
me and rav3ndan were mostly in agreement on this one, having them roughly at a 6/10 compared to the other available teams. morgrem is a cool mon and i for one appreciate the pun, although others seem to find it goofy. i like it a lot and this could have been much higher if not for the strong competition still to come.


music: Ho3nConfirm3d: Frank Ocean - Self Control | Rabia: Unleash The Archers - General Of The Dark Army
anime: Ho3nConfirm3d: Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt | Rabia: Gosick

hottest food take: 9/10
Ho3nConfirm3d: pineapple on pizza is the tip of the iceberg, i'll put anything on za i love it all
Rabia: oatmeal is inedible

alright so this is maybe higher than other people would expect, but i admire this for multiple reasons.
with ho3n, he's basically repeating jett's take but at a higher level; the implication that he truly would put anything on pizza (and generally speaking i fully believe ho3n would put, for example, broccoli or banana on a pizza) in addition to the audacity you'd need to shorten pizza to "za" raises this take substantially in my eyes.
with rabia, i just enjoy the specific mention of oatmeal far more than previous mentions of burgers or strawberries. oatmeal is such an odd thing to even remember disliking and one of the few foods you could easily go through life having never eaten, so to have it stick in his mind like this is hot enough to maintain ho3n's high ranking even though it may not see that much disagreement.

discord server quality: 6/10

slightly above the corsolas, far below the 7/10 monfernos. just another understandably boring server with a slight edge over the corsolas due to slightly more activity.

team swag: 4/10

thwackey is an ugly mon but i enjoy the rhyme even if it probably only took half a minute for ho3n to settle on it. credit to the image ho3n made above, being able to visualise thwackey just going around smacking things entertains my tiny goblin brain.

we have met 139 signups, and after extensive discussion with simbo he has decided that this is enough to justify adding a further two teams to the lineup to meet the rising demand. as a result, i am very happy to announce that i will be entering the manager pool alongside famed assman Rav3ndan to bring you the CircumScythers. we will both be buying ourselves for the agreed upon $15k each.

song: uhuhuhu7: The Dreadnoughts - Roll Northumbria | Rav3ndan: Daryl Hall & John Oates - You Make My Dreams
anime: uhuhuhu7: Barakamon | Rav3ndan: never watched anime

hottest food take: 7/10
uhuhuhu7: americans ruined neapolitan ice cream and it's not only disgusting but also a shadow of what it used to be.
rav3ndan: aside from the guts, every part of a shrimp is good, including the head and the tail.

there's no democracy here by the way, we rated ourselves. to expand on my point quickly for anyone who doesn't know, neapolitan ice cream used to consist of the following flavours: cherry, vanilla, and almond. when america stole the idea they decided to replace these flavours with the three most popular flavours they had, which is a stupid idea when you realise that chocolate and strawberry ice cream taste disgusting when you mix them together and both flavours massively overpower vanilla unless you're getting some real high quality stuff. which you're not, because it's america. with that said, i don't think this is actually that hot of a take, but i got carried partially by rav3ndan and partially by most people giving kinda boring answers.



rav3ndan eats all of this. including the shell. including the wiggly bony legs. including the head and beady eyes. i honestly don't know what kind of environment he was brought up in to cause this but i have never heard of anyone eating any part of the shrimp that wasn't the fleshy tummy (which as well all know is the best body part).

discord server quality: 3/10

we, uh, don't have one. i didn't want to commit to the joke that hard. nonetheless, nobody got 13 pings and neither i nor rav3ndan have ever sent anyone an :obamawhew: so we're taking our 3/10 rank for offering absolutely no contribution to anyones lives with our lack of discord servers.

team swag: 9/10

scyther is one of the coolest mascots available and our name is great. this may be subjective, but i and rav3ndan both agreed we had the best team in the bunch in this department, with only one exception...


allah bless, for the axews are officially in the tournament to meet the aforementioned 139 entrants, 10 teams quota!
songs: pazza: NLE Choppa - Shotta Flow 5 | PH: Kanye West - We Major
anime: pazza: My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Dragon Ball Z (all dubbed) | PH: Attack on Titan, Tokyo Ghoul, Seven Deadly Sins

hottest food take: 8/10
pazza: ketchup chips are one of the best flavor of chips
PH: chinese food is the best kind of food by far

for any of my fellow brits who may be confused, pazza is referring to these:



this is easily one of the spiciest takes to be provided so far. the best flavour of crisps is always a contentious subject, but this is literally the first time in my life i have ever heard anyone claim tomato ketchup to be the best.
ph's is disappointing on the other hand, largely because anyone who has eaten more than 5 meals in their life should recognise that different countries optimise for different things. for example, i have never seen an appetising chinese dessert. i touched on this earlier, but there is a strict line between takes that make me think "they have an awful opinion" and "they have an uninformed opinion" and this falls into the latter. either that or he should've been more specific. pazza's take however is probably the second hottest in the pool so i'm giving them both big marks.

discord server quality: 3/10

tied with the scythers, they have no server, at least as far as i am aware. they take a joint 3/10. if they had a discord server they could've gotten into the top three, but oh well. there is always next year.

team swag: 10/10
Its large tusks have a tendency to break, but each time they grow back, they grow in harder and sturdier.

similar to the might axew itself, pazza has been muted and banned multiple times but only comes back stronger. come 2021 there may be no player alive capable of stopping this man. alhamdulillah!


songs: SBPC: The Weeknd - Blinding Lights | Tack: Voltaire - Feathery Wings
anime: SBPC: god idk evangelion is my all time fav but ive really enjoyed bna and the work dp puts in with the jojo parts so maybe have those as a top 3 | Tack: .hack//Sign, Hunter x Hunter (2011), Spirited Away

hottest food take: 6/10
sbpc: professional chefs that cannot respond to honest criticisms are too prideful in their own work
tack: steak is best raw

alright so sbpc's is just incredibly niche which makes it a pretty low-tier take in my eyes. most people are not close enough to a professional chef to even have an opinion on this. he gets hard carried by tack here because what the fuck? tack eats steak raw. not rare, raw. i personally do not like steak, which in retrospect could've been my hot take, but i'm at least aware of the conflict between people on what temperature steak should be cooked at (as well as what seasonings to use, how thick the cut should be, etc. etc.) and i have never considered just eating it like a wild animal. i think many people who read this will look at tack slightly differently now.

discord server quality: 9/10

ok so i decided these discord rankings on multiple things, but two teams guaranteed the top spots by taking five seconds to change this setting.



on every other server you have to manually go into the notification settings else you end up getting sound notifications every time a message is sent. this is inconvenient and big props to whoever realised this was a thing on their team. they could have gotten the #1 slot here but they had a channel that everyone could see but nobody could see the history of so i constantly had notifications for unread messages i couldn't read until a day ago.

team swag: 6/10

boring mascot but a clever name with alliteration. i like it a lot and i think they could get a cool logo out of this since the mon is basically just a green egg.


this is a sick logo, s/o crazystevy
songs: quagsgone: Breakbot - Baby I'm Yours | 85percent: Dire Straits - Brothers In Arms
anime: quagsgone: i have only watched one punch man so thats my top 1 :D | 85percent: my favourite might look a bit childish, but I really love detective conan

hottest food take: 10/10
quagsgone:
oh something i always do
i take off the top bun on burgers
on some burgers
is that weird

85percent:
I don't know if this counts, but I mostly see food as fuel, so I actually really value texture / how easy it is to eat in decent quantities over super special taste
well, ofc I value taste in the sense that it can't taste like crap. but if it's neutral, then I'm fine with it
that also just goes for meals. for cookies or something it's different


ok so in all honesty i'm not sure if these qualify as hot takes or just weird behaviours but quagsgone takes the top bun off and presumably just holds it from underneath like a waiter. the only alternative i can think of is he just holds it like a normal person but gets burger grease and sauce all over his hands just picking the thing up. 85% meanwhile seems to consume food like a robot, just living off whatever spaceman gruel he has access to because it's the quickest food to eat and holds all the necessary nutritional supplements.
we've kind of broken the rules here a bit by ranking these as the highest "hot takes" even though they aren't strictly takes, just weird habits, but these are both odd enough that i can't help myself.

discord server quality: 10/10


like the ferros, they got it right.
the main reason i'm ranking these over the ferros is because they have some great emotes, such as
and
in addition to having the best logo.

team swag: 7/10
like the ferros, me and rav3ndan drastically differed here; i personally had them at 4/10 but he had them at 10/10, so we split down the middle again. i'm not so sure on the name personally but generally speaking people seem to like it a lot, and the fact they already have a logo ready to go is impressive and gets them into the overall rank #1 position. thanks for reading.

feel free to disagree with any and all of this because in the end it's almost entirely subjective, but please do not let tack get away with eating raw meat.

this post was not worth it.
 
uhuhuhu7 my esteemed manager, i believe a 'prawn' is different to a 'shrimp'. they also need to be fried to be eaten basically whole. but i digress.

I feel you need to rescind your comments about never seen good Chinese dessert and observe below (bar that mango shit)
