Lmao maybe I'll turn this into some joke infographic but one thing that's always bothered me is people using Team Dude + Team Men interchangeably when there's a difference smh (don't take this seriously, I know Lightning has called both Team Men as well)
Team Men:
-Introduced in episode 6
-Includes Brick, Scott, Lightning and SAM. SAM is an honorary member who did more to contribute than Lightning and Scott idgaf if they tried to exclude him he's the most significant part and the episode puts more focus on him
-No girls/emphasis on Men
-They're only together on the basis of being guys tbh, as much as I like them as a friend group they're kinda shit to each other LMAOO. Well the more notable dynamics are Sam's ones with Lightning and Scott and you know how they are. At least Sam and Lightning were kinda cute/friendly before Lightning turned on him in episode 3
-Bully Sam
-Lowkey sexist but they get beaten out by girls in both challenges so it's fine
Team Dude:
-Introduced at the end of episode 6/episode 7
-Includes Brick, Lightning and Jo
-They all annoy each other and individually think they should be in charge
-Jo hates the name but idk why🤔🤔
-Lightning is the only one emphasising the Dude part because Brick values his own life
-Physically strong trio. Brains + Brawns (Jo), Beauty + Brawns (Brick) and Brawns + more Brawns (Lightning)
-Bully Brick
-The most notable relationships here are Jo's rivalries with the other two. I think Brick and Lightning would've been more of a dude bro friendship had they interacted more but Brick also does cringe at his stupidity lol
OTHER:
Brick + Lightning + Jo + Scott:
Sam wasn't built enough for the team and they replaced him💔 3 antagonists and a Brick. Poor Brick
Brick + Lightning + Jo + Scott + Sam:
Jo never actually interacted with Scott and Sam much so this is a weird fanon merge. I'm not that interested in this specific group so not much to say here lol but her interacting with those two WOULD be very funny. I'd say poor Jo considering she's the only girl but THEY'RE stuck with HER
Brick + Lightning + Scott:
Sam wasn't attractive enough to fit your TD Boyfriends yaoi🙄🙄🙄 go sit in the corner and reconsider your decisions in life
Jo + Lightning + Scott:
Actually not a trio I see often and that kinda sucks because they'd be super fun. I can see Jo and Scott being a sorta conflicting troublemaker duo arguing over schemes while Lightning just goes with whatever he wants. Especially fun in a dramarama type AU where they're tiny kids
