And toms and cymbals and the rest of the kit...

Made Portnoy look distinctly average regardless.

What's your point about only using hi hats, bass and snare?

A good drummer can get more from a small kit than an average could with a Bozzio type setup.

I prefered Portnoy to be honest and I don't think he did work harder.

We never agree on stuff like this so what the hell - it's a dumb contest anyway, drumming is not a competitive sport - Rymer just was more interesting musically for me and made it look effortless, whereas Porknoy had to work at it, using every inch of his kit to produce something that was all show and no substance.
What?
