I still love the moment of fear Mauler had after E;R threatened to debate him on ATLA after Rags had called it trash and gotten the rest of EFAP to back him on that.
Rags had never seen it beyond a handful of Youtube clips but did his normal "extreme hyperbole, everything I remotely don't like is literally objectively bad" (see also him missing crucial mechanics in REmake 2 and deciding it was garbage because of it).
So Mauler had to go "watch" it on his own with a completely unrelated guy, and decided (totally free of bias because he'd never take a position to protect his own guy) Rags was 100% right and it was terrible and that literally everyone was wrong.
Of course once they tried to buddy buddy with E;R, a basically untouchable name to most of their audience, that would make trouble.

E;R is untouchable period, like the ubermensch of video essayists. Nobody even dares to challenge him
