The Sparring Thread

[Sword]

I'm sure this idea is not one all too unique, but I think it's a good one, having not seen a thread like this in a long while. Sparring is the top event practiced on Graal - some take it seriously, some don't. With this thread, I have three questions:

1.) Who is the best sparrer on Graal? (Use the poll for this please, but also post your pick, if you'd like. I hope the provided choices are to your liking, as they should be.)
2.) Who are the top 10 sparrers on Graal, in order? (Please use the following 25-player pool, which was constructed by myself and others in intent to keep people from making cutesy favoritist lists: Brett, Neo, Gate, Ares, Thallen, Highlander, Quick Strike, Magnus, Sora/Renee, Deophite, Cyclone, Evenglare, Exodus, Clel, X-Storm, Onet, Tyrant, Tortoise, Nomad, King Clops, Mercury, Dark Pheonix, Mariah, Halo, FrozenHeat - I hope the list is to your liking.)
3.) What server is home to the best sparrers on Graal? (Please list your reason for picking what server you do, as well, which could come in the form of a list of sparrers or so forth.)
