Thats what happened with hammerhead sharks except with eye width. And yet they’re top tier too

It's true that the flying fish isn't a competitive build, but it's fun and perfect for casuals players
Flying fish can be a lot of fun for a good player too, gives a challenge and making jumps at the right times is a great skill tester that feels amazing to pull of, just going "actually i can fly" is great.
It's dodging ability is great especially if you know how to bait air players by faking a jump then jumping afterwards.
Also I prefer to speculate on what it might evolve into. Perhaps it will gain a better ability to fly. What if it diversifies into a wide group like the other 4? What if it develops a way to breath air??
Trevally and Jack mains often can track flying fish players through the air, and the speed of the Jacks and trevally make it easy to catch them.
Some people who main the giant trevally can even catch bird players midair.
That often causes tons of salt as you can guess
flying fish class was made for me
I've actually been a victim of the catfish venom while playing as a lvl 15 Human, I was fishing for EXP (ik it's a dumb strategy now) and I caught a catfish player. Dude was smart and flailed around and stung me. It did so much poison damage and I had to use an expensive healing item.
Use cheat code passport to go to a place with free healthcare makes healing items cost less
Jeez mate, you might need to rethink those power points. I recommend spending them on the ‘forever alone’ upgrade which decreases your odds of coming across another player.
I’ve heard that playing as a human is hard, but man…
But I got killed by a wolverine main yesterday so I can’t be talking
Dude i was lvl 7 and encountered a barracuda while exploring the shallow waters, I think it was tripping or sm because it didn’t attack
@@-liittle-_MOVEDlikemonthsago hard? Aren’t they the number one class in the current meta?
Actually, I guess they’re difficult in the fact that they’re insanely customizable, and their play styles are so different from pretty much every other class that it’s really hard for any other main to help out.

@@lordfelidae4505 yeah lol... I was playing a hyena with my guild and we once saw an overly confident mid-lvl lion player try to atk a lvl capped elephant...... lets just say he broke one of his legs and was later killed by my guild.... and the worse part is tht our guild have many low lvl players tht are still trying to get the hang of the game
but dmn tht veteran elephant player simply did not give the lion a chance .. he went for a crit to the body with his tusk atk, launched him airborne and when he landed, he delivered a permanent paralysis effect with his stomp atk to the lion's foot.... and he even forced the lion player to our guild's turf to ensure tht we can provide exp to our newbies.... such brutal but also kind player
The look on the Lion's face at first too.🤣
The elephants bowing in the Lion King were just there to remind the lions to stay tf out of their graveyard

6:50 I’m actually surprised the catfish isn’t a lot higher on the tier list. My family was restocking a lake not too long ago and catfish were the only fish that made me genuinely nervous handling, knowing one wrong move could slit open your wrists or other uncovered parts of your body. Being able to in any way strike fear in a top tier build such as some humans has to count for something.
garter snakes can strike fear into humans, humans are actually very cautious players with almost all carnivores though certain human mains are known for the opposite for example the human player steve irwin
While it's hard to beat humans in general, we're not actually that hard to scare off. We're pretty squishy so anything with any amount of offense can do big damage to us, making us a very cautious creature in general
You're calling humans top tier?
We're not capable of anything without our tools. Our tools are the only thing that would make us hard for a predator to defeat.
If you didn't have a gun, then you can't run away from a lion, nor can you defeat a lion.
@barm barm • 52 years ago you can't separate humans from their tools, we've been using tools longer than we've been properly human. Even with the most basic of tools it's a pretty even fight between a human and a lion
@@ExpandDong420 No it ain't. We can totally separate humans from their tools, and just look at how vulnerable their build is.
(Btw I love your pfp bec I'm a Hazbin/Hell-of-a Boss fan)
I think the real top tier builds are just the guns, sticks, spears, and sticks that are used by humans. Those objects by themselves deserve the credit for their abilities.
We don't have any armour unless we wear armour. And not everyone can even afford armour, or spears.
If we just decided to teleport a random human adult infront of a hungry lioness pride, or lion coalition, then the adult would stand zero chance. He or she can't even fly, or run away fast enough.

I remember one time when I started playing the game, I was fish class and I wanted to make my friends laugh by increasing my nose size and saying “Look at my long nose!”. I thought this was silly but 3 hours later I somewhat regretted doing that. I was upgrading my strength while watching CZcams videos because I was bored upgrading my points into strength. This video played and really helped me out! This actually helped me become a sword fish build and is pretty great because I’ve already put a lot into nose length.

This is a pretty good tier list. The only thing I'd change is the Cleaner Wrasse. It may not seem overpowered at first, but think about it! They never get targeted and they have an excellent source of XP, which also allows them to make many allies. Cleaner Wrasse's may not pop out as much, but their only downside is the HP, which allows them to live for about 4 years which still isn't the worst. They may not have many special abillities, but they have everything they need. S tier for sure.
I played as a Sunfish with some friends back in the day so I could help support them by purposely letting parasites get to me and letting my friends get free EXP from it.
As a marine support main, I want to give a shoutout to all of the ocean sunfish mains. You guys are probably the most chill playerbase in the ocean servers, and even though your build isn’t the strongest, there’s no other build that I have more fun teaming up with.
Cleaner wrasse is always fun because even the most skilled players have to bow down to you

you are an absolute genius for creating such original content. Absolute absolute genius !
I can't tell you how much I love this narration and commentary.
Just to clarify how oppressive lionfish are, that map at 12:30 is from 2003 and very outdated.
As of 2017, lionfish have taken over *the entire Gulf of Mexico* and can be found as far south as Brazil. Since they're invasive, local fish haven't adapted to the lionfish's hunting strategies or defenses. Pair this with a voracious appetite and watch as lionfish kill or outcompete just about every other local fish population into extinction.
There's good news though. Scientists have found that local predators can be "taught" to recognize lionfish as food by leaving dead or wounded ones in the water. Divers and fishers are sometimes paid bounties for culling lionfish populations, and in many places entire fisheries have been established around them.
I've always wondered what they taste like. They look like broken asian RPG weapons

A long time ago, in what we now know as Ireland, Salmon-builds were surprisingly versatile, with some even having shape-changing abilities to let them walk on land. And then there was this one Salmon player that had a maxed-out intelligence stat _and_ had a bonus modifier somehow. Eventually a Human player found out he was actually a developer's character and caught him. The developer was so impressed that he apparently gave the bonus Intelligence modifier to the Human player as a reward! 🐟

I'd like to point put that one of the catfishs' greatest abilities was left out; they nabbed one of the reptile build abilities; the ability to continually grow larger throughout their lives without limit. This can lead to massive catfish tanking/ambush builds that I personally believe earn them a higher place in the meta.
While it is true that catfish will just keep growing for as long as they grow older, this is not unique to the catfish guild. A lot of different fish guilds have no true upper limit on size and keep growing with age, with another notable example being bass and grouper. This ability is true for a lot of fish guilds, it's just that some guilds get better returns for it i.e. an older remora is still primarily a support class but just bigger, while an old grouper is a massive swimming tank that can eat or at least bully almost anything it comes across.
Catfish are notable for gigantism however because the best catfish builds are freshwater ones, either obligate or they can survive some brackish conditions. Since they are generalists already (for the most part, the Mekong Giant Catfish and Candiru are specialists) and tolerant of low water quality they are great survivalists and tend to survive to old age more readily than other builds. This combined with the reduced competition and max size in fresh water servers (only massive river servers like the Amazon begin to compare with the competitive level of Ocean servers) means they can easily outstrip every other fish build around. More so than freshwater bass, it is the river monster type catfish, like the Wels Catfish, that are truly the big fish in a small pond.
@@VillainousHanacha and because of that ability I believe the catfish build should be higher up, at least in regards to freshwater servers.
@@samgross7352 I would also say that, at least when counting specific catfish builds, they can reach A+ tier max. Even when counting all catfish averaged together as a whole (and counting other saltwater fish as well) catfish should be higher than on this list, but not by much (I would say B+, instead of mid C tier).
I made a much longer comment before on this vid about it, but the short of it is that although catfish are excellent generalists with tanky base stats and great sensory abilities, Siluriformes as a guild is massive so not all catfish are like the Wels or Piraiba and things like the Suckermouth catfish (the largest sub-guild at 680 variant builds) bring down the average. Also the best catfish builds being freshwater and saltwater catfish being pretty unremarkable is a nock in my eyes.
However yes, I think the overall placement is low (but not that low) and that specific catfish builds can reach much higher than the average.
How many of you fish for catfish?
IMO catfish belong in A tier

"A lot of players see the catfish as low tier trash" Unless you live in europe, of course. We only have one catfish here, the Wels. It grows to a good 2.5m, weighs almost 150kg, and commonly eats dogs.
Umm *WHAT*
Well it's pretty common in all servers that don't support life of crocodiles build.
That's why they should be one rank higher
Unless if in Europe? There are man sized catfish in America as well.
In the Mississippi river they are also really big.
The rivalry between cats and dogs has gone too far this time.
Makes you wonder why we haven't gotten a Lionfish pokemon yet; They look like a pokemon, and typing, ability and stats write themselves with Water/ Poison, Poison Point, High Def & Sp.Def, middling HP, Atk & Sp.Atk, and low Speed.
Seaking
Demonyck’s Creations pretty sure seaking is based on a goldfish or something similar to goldeen.
@@vinegar... Seaking is definitely a lion fish
well they can`t just copy stuff from another game
Well, I'm pretty sure Toxapex has that exact same stat spread, so Game Freak would just be repeating themselves.
as a kid,i can say i love how many words really were pretty accurate with this
Talking OP: One fish I miss on this list is the electric eel. S-tier surely.
Ocean Sunfish: Exists
The Rest of the Ocean: Looks like PANCAKES are back on the menu, boys!
LOL
That was genuinely funny
mmm bone
Punching bag of ocean= sunfish

Do you know if you're going to Heaven? John 3:16 says For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
You can give your life to God right now. Repent for your sins, trust Jesus, and God will give you eternal life. Have faith and say this prayer.
"Jesus Lord I know you shed your blood and died for my sins. I know you were buried, and you rose again on the third day. Please forgive me for my sins. I give my life to you Lord. Thank you Jesus for saving me. Amen."
Child of God 1 does it relate to the video? If yes comment. If it doesn’t don’t comment. 2 is the topic controversial? Yes, maybe don’t comment. No, good continue on.
That's what she said.
So you prefer double penetration???
thank you tierzoo, this might save my marriage
I absolutely love the RuneScape effects
I'd be very curious where you feel Tuna would land on the tier list. Most humans don't seem to appreciate their place as upper middle predators with remarkable speed. They're like billfish without bills.
Fun fact: piranhas don't often attack live things. Though the feeding frenzy and they're relatively high power stat, it deosnt like to stack live or even severely injured builders. Usually they will wait til they are dead.
only real timew they frensy is when really hungry
the knights of kolt also, they’re omnivorous. They’ll gladly feed on plants too, giving them an extra layer of versatility.
This being said never touch water anywhere near them, because if do happen to be hungry you will loose everything below the surface
@@jacedavis9880 that's a myth man. The only time you truly have a chance of losing anything is during the dry season. The fish to really be afraid of in South America is the Candiru, which is a type of catfish btw.
thank you i was hoping this would be pointed out that piranhas are more scavengers and are kinda adorably cowardly
The music choices don’t go unappreciated.
Ocean SUNfish - Mario sunshine
FLYING fish - Kid Icarus
Billfish (has a sword) - Fire Emblem lol
Love it. Such small details but they go a long way
I gotta say I never paid attention to the music choices
also the music for the archerfish is the one where you use the bow & arrow a lot in zela twilight princess
Also the Cleaner Wrass, which is presented as a support build, has the Pokecenter music
And Unfounded Revenge / Smashing Song of Praise from Mother 3 is used for the Catfish's theme!
hey its the fun larry fact guy
Best animal videos on the internet. Hands down. Your presentation is very enjoyable.
Just started watching. Fun and interesting. Catfish build needs tier list. Some, like bullheads are definitely in the F tier, while most large species are easily on par with or above the bass build. Yet, some, like the Goonch, are the equivalent of freshwater sharks and have been reported to take down cattle and even humans in the game.
Catfish definitely should be higher tier. Depending in their spawn point and how good the player is, some Catfish players have managed to unlock the giagantism trait. Also, their passive ability to live in basically mud water gives catfish players the advantage of camping through conditions other fish players would get sent back to character select for.
Is this an actual game?
@@pataomaster3772 you're playing it right now
@@WhitePikminPro True Realization
@@WhitePikminPro I see
@@pataomaster3772 yeah this channel is such a creative fun way to educate yourself on nature, it’s pretty cool
You don't play support classes to have fun, you play them to help other players pop off.
The Ocean Sunfish is the support class to support classes.
While true, they are still bottom tier. There are so many other ways to help support builds and there is rarely no one who needs support.
Imagine playing WoW and you're treated worse than the healer. You're basically a dedicated tank with high hp and no attack. How high on the tier list would that class be?
That's like calling roadkill a support class.
Me who has fun playing support classes.
The sunfish is great when doing 'den raids' as it can tank damage allowing party members to attack the den
My first ever build was a trout. I spawned in the river and was getting a hang of the controls when I jumped and immediately got eaten by a bear player. Haven’t played as a trout since.
Dude I love the RuneScape references and effects
14:15 - Actually, sharks also have no problem eating lionfish, although they need to _learn_ it. I recently read about a project (around Florida, I think) in which marine biologists _teach_ the local sharks that lionfish are food (not friends) in order to control this invasive species. I know you said "no sharks in this video", but in this context, I would mention it nonetheless.
None of your Business thank you for this
Of course it's Florida
Barracuda also eating lionfish
wtf do you mean by "teach" them?
Lionfish in its native areas aren't very widespread and are in controlled numbers because there are many natural predators including triggerfish
I love how the music corresponds to the fish he's talking about. Kid Icarus music for flying fish, Mario Sunshine music for sun fish, and Fire Emblem music for sword fish.
Poke Centre for the Cleaner Wrasses
RuneScape music for all round goodness
I like the one of the Lion fish as well. It being so loud and dramatic cause the Lion fish is like that. Also it could easily become a Pokémon with pretty much no changes needed.
Hidden Village from Twilight Princess for the gunslinger-like triggerfish
The way that piranhas eyes bulged out when the croc bit down has me gasping for air (in a way fish cannot, lungs feature OP)
