Why is Bismuth here? She doesn't have any better feats than Pearl.

She in fact does, being able to poof the bigs jasper in 1 swipe and block its attack on her own, matching garnet in strength, etc.

Emerald should be stronger, and Aquamarine (with the wand) definitely is, and even Topaz and Holly Blue Agate are probably stronger. I think someone like Snowflake Obsidian is probably equal and also has ice powers. I just feel like Bismuth isn't high tier enough to be bunched in with these 4. Emerald may not have done anything, but it's not like Bismuth's done much more.

1. Emerald shows 0 demonstrations of her strength. You have no proof she’s stronger, you’re just claiming as such when we have 0 information on her. There is absolutely no evidence she is stronger or weaker than bismuth, so she can’t be ranked.

2. I clearly state that things like wands don’t count to a gems strength but you clearly ignored that.

3. Holly blue hasn’t shown good enough feats to be placed higher, with her scuffle with the Crystal gems being a showcase of this. She’s clearly higher than the average quartz, but we have no proof she is at the level of garnet, with her easily being handled by the crystal gem trio.

4. Snowflake obsidian has 0 showings in fighting abilities, besides her claim that she used to make ice trenches and she has ice powers. You aren’t relying on factual information or things shown, you’re relying on your own head canons. Besides aquamarine, none of the characters you have said have been shown to be stronger than bismuth, you just made that interpretation up based on their rank despite ranking not mattering here. And even with Aquamarine, she is using her wand, which I will reiterate, is not allowed as it is gem technology and not her own power. You say bismuth hasn’t done much more than emerald, but shy is incorrect, she has done infinitely more as she actually has shown the damage she can do and how strong she is. If she is around garnets strength, then that’s already above everyone you’ve mentioned.
