      Hades would probably get sacrifices from everyone who is in their right mind,
      seeing how he is the one god you're guaranteed to end up with. I would definitely want Hades' favor.

    I actually think Hades would smell quite pleasant and that's because ancient Greeks used an assortment of good smelling stuff in their funeral rites (rosemary, myrtle and mint) and there is even a myth about Hades having the personification of the plant mint, Minthe as a mistress. So that's why I think Hades would have a smell associated with these herbs

    If all the tier lists are this high-quality, then I'm in favour of you doing more. However, variety is essential. Obviously we love the fully animated vids and never want those to stop, but if you're going to do some easier videos like this one (I presume this is less work than full animation) to please the one true god - the CZcams Algorithm - then I would highly recommend having more easy vids than just tier lists. Maybe book reviews, maybe meme reviews, those BTS vids on your research process are good, maybe review mythology related movies or episodes of shows like Xena. Tier list are fun, just make sure to keep the variety, because you are extremely creative and it's easy to neglect the high-effort stuff you love when you can technically make an easy video instead that's still pretty good.
