#predator #yautja #prey
After the recent release of the smash hit Prey, the newest entry in the Predator universe, I became obsessed with the Predators or Yautja. In my obsession, I of course, wanted to know which predator is the top dog. For this video, I’ve reached out to my friend and Predator expert, TheChadChamp who will be helping us out. We will be taking a close look at all the Major predators depicted in the film series to determine which is the deadliest. Unlike my other power scaling videos, this is not meant to determine who is the physically strongest or most powerful predator, but which one is the greatest at what predators do best, hunt. While the two Alien vs Predator films are no longer considered canon, I will be including the predators from those films as well as much of the lore established there that doesn’t contradict the current canon as those films do a lot of heavy lifting in the lore department.
But before we start talking about individual Predators, it’s important that you understand the Yautja. The Yautja are Apex Predators who hail from their home planet of Yautja Prime. The primary goal of all Yautja is to become an honored member of their species - and to do that, they must hunt the deadliest prey in the universe.
Predators are bipedal humanoids, physically distinguishable from humans by their greater height, the long, hair-like appendages on their heads (nicknamed dreadlocks), their reptilian skin and their faces, which feature arthropod-like mandibles and no visible nose. The biological purpose of the distinctive mandibles is unclear - some have proposed they may be used in reproduction or mating rituals. They may also be a vestigial piece of anatomy, as noted by Lex Woods, who compares it to the human appendix. Yautja use them to convey emotions; for example, flared mandibles apparently signify anger or surprise, mandibles clicking together can signify interest or curiosity, and Yautja have even been said to "grin" with them. Predators have also been known to employ their mandibles as weapons, using them to inflict grievous bite wounds on their opponent. As well as the fleshy dreadlocks around the side of the head, some Predators have also been seen to possess sparse, quills on their cheeks and above the eyes.
The Classic Predator and its chest quills.
While generally uniform, each Yautja's physical appearance includes a number of subtle variations, akin to human genetic diversity. Similarly, while Predator heights vary, they are typically over 7 feet tall, although some have been known to grow to 8 feet or even taller. Despite this, shorter individuals have been recorded, such as Mahnde or the aptly-named Shorty, who stood the height of a typical human. These individuals are unusual and their smaller height the subject of ridicule in Yautja society. The species' reptile-like skin can range in color from light to dark, be mottled or clear, and can appear dry or moist and clammy.
Sources on what species class Yautja's are the most adjacent to vary, however many note that they have reptilian characteristics that may be more than superficial. Along with scaley skin, their armor features a wire mesh designed to keep the wearer warm; it is noted to be very uncomfortable for humans, even at the lowest setting. However, some Yautja do not have this mesh and it may not be that Yautja's are reptilian, per se, but rather that they are simulating the environment of their homeworlds which are said to be arid.
Yautja are a dual-sexed species, though most encounters with humans have been with male individuals. The species has a breeding season, in which female Yautjas will choose the most skillful males to sire their offspring. Presumably, males return to their homeworlds for this event as females do not go off-world as much as males or for the same reasons. Young Yautja, called Sucklings, are born to females after an unknown amount of time. Females are shown to have mammary glands and Dachande was able to recognize them for what they were in humans, which would suggest Yautja are somewhat mammalian in addition to having repitilian traits. Young Yautja appear to be born live; there has been no evidence that they are hatched from any kind of egg. - Zábava
Which Predator and Predator Movie are your favorites?
Predator
My fav Predator is The Feral and my fav Movie is The Second one
I personally think it's bull crap that in prey one girl was able to beat that predator when that predator previously slaughtered a army of Indians,French men,and bears
Definitely the one from avp that teams up with lex
@@Blazecap Scar.
In defense of Wolf, by the time he fought the Predalien he was tired, injured, had been killing Xenos left and right, and had lost most of his weapons. He would've beaten the Predalien earlier if she didn't keep running away. Only time we've seen a Xeno retreating onscreen. I think he could take a standard Queen in better circumstances.
Also im pretty sure to be an elite predator u have to have killed an alien queen, so im sure wolf had already been there done that
Agreed! Big Mom made a Queen run as well :) But Pred ALIEN def Wolf shoulda been the next Reaper!!!!
He also ditched his gear for a straight up brawl, then laughed his ass off when he ripped the PredAliens tongue out.
I agree 💯
To be fair the queens are pretty much genius intelligence right? She made the best decision against someone she knew she couldn't beat
Wolf pretty much eliminated an entire hive of xenos. Upheld the honor code perfectly throughout the entire process. Didn't even look like he was slightly in trouble throughout at any point until the Predalien stalemate. He went in solo to do a huge job, backed down from nothing, kept focus, stayed on point, and made it look like a day at the office. There's no debate. Second place is where it can get tricky, mainly because of the unknowns of Grayback. And Berserker is kind of hard to judge because he doesn't really uphold the honor code. Wolf is the legend among legends, it's just unfortunate he had to be surrounded by a disappointing movie.
Wolf did not just stalemate the Predalien, he stalemated it BARE HANDED, after exhausting all of his arsenal by soloing and cleared almost the entire Hive of Xeno in the city by himself alone, while also upheld his code and try to remove all the traces of Xeno on Earth. If Wolf still had most of his weaponry he'd have made that Predalien his breakfast easily. Not to mention, the Predalien did flee from him multiple time despite ambushing him with multiple other Xenos, and consider the fact that Predalien is the mixed of both Xeno and Yauja, something never seen before, which proceed to kill the whole Yauja ship when it just appeared, I'd say it's the most dangerous Xeno ever, way more dangerous than the Queen, making Wolf's feat far stronger than any Yauja's feat we've seen, he's definitely take this here.
Pred Alien is definitely more dangerous than a Queen Xeno. Pred Alien reproduces wat faster on higher accelerating rates.
@@therealdeal8277Exactly, predalien queen skips the egg laying all together and directly inserts MULTIPLE embryos into the whom of other female organisms, narly shit man.
If only we had more info on Lost, the dude literally got bored of hunting sentient life and started targeting upgraded AI - that's kind of nuts if you think about it. He didn't care about rank, he just wanted to hunt smarter and more powerful prey from what we briefly know of him. For Greyback not to oppose that decision, probably gives you an idea of how much respect he has for Lost.
Same could definitely be said for Guardian
My favourite is Wolf from AVP 2. that savage went solo to contain an alien outbreak while also disposing any evidence and chasing the predalien. The feral predator is close in second.
Sound like every predator fan boy and including me
Well him and scar *^
I think Scar is second to wolf. He took on an alien queen and other Xeno’s as a young blood predator.
Agreed. Too bad the movie sucked but watching him dismantle a pile of aliens was really great.
Wolf is the god of predator. That badass single-handedly held the alien infestation and a predalien without his plasma blaster and hand on hand combat.
I'm definitely giving it to wolf. He was absolutely dog walking an entire xeno hive and only fought the predalien after killing a bunch of other xenos. We know all of the circumstances of his showdown with the predalien, and they certainly weren't very good for him, yet he still managed to stalemate it in a close quarters fight with pretty much none of his weaponry. For the other elites and Greyback though, we have 0 context for their victories against xeno queens. Also the original film is still easily the best.
He also took some bullets from the humans.
Agreed
I’m giving it to Scarface if we’re expanding more than just the movies. He would make Wolf look like a child in combat
Legit wolf was a badass
Requiem wouldve been better if it wasnt so dark and we got more wolf hunting xenos and less human actuon
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed the Feral Predator kept breaking parts of the Yautja honor code. When he cloaked on the brother of the main girl, and stabbed him in the back that's what made me think he was a bad blood left on the planet. It would also explain why most of his equipment was more primitive. I imagine a blooded being stripped of their plasma caster is a major dishonor.
It was primitive based on the times. Pay attention. They did ot have blasters yet. They developed the sonic blasters acter the feral was already dead. Movie is in the past
@lordoffaiyum9727 You realize the events of AVP show the Yautja with blasters even further in the past, right? They had blasters then, and its equipment that only blooded Yautja are permitted to use.
@@Zenovii-senpaiand I’ve never heard an official source saying that either AVP movie wasn’t canon, so I would assume that Feral is most likely a subspecies of Yautja that came before them, he’s the last of his kind, and couldn’t get used to the newer tech so he preferred to hunt with the older tech. Also I’d assume that Feral had obviously never been to Earth before aside from possibly the xenomorph initiation trial, so I’d imagine that’s why he spent so much time learning which species was the best prey
@@lordoffaiyum9727yea, this guy's have mastered space travel yet they have "primitive equipment" due to the times.... Fkg facepalm....
@@tomatosauce7666fr😂
In my Opinion the Whole Alien and Xenomorph Universe is very under utilized in Movies and Games alike. So much Lore to be explored in different settings and the Fanbase loves it if done right. We need way more of this.
The movies and games don't cover ten percent of the lore. Actually the deadliest predators are in novels. Some in the movies are deadly sure. Except they lose. This list is alright only counting movies. The deadliest uh no their not.
On a side note.
In Predators (2010), I’m glad that despite being a bad blooded Yautja. The Falconer predator was still willing to provide a fair fight against Hanzo with his katana.
If anything, he probably became a bad blood on accident. Probably a near death experience and " cheated " to win to dishonor him. So he probably still had the honor he was raised in but acted without thinking and dishonored his clan
just my theory anyway :b
So in the movie, all of them were bad blooded?
@@Voldrim359 If you’re referring to the 3 Predators then yes, they are bad blooded.
They really need to start expanding on stuff like this in the movie. An sequel to predators or a movie that follows a predator unblooded solely till he becomes blooded. Prey was a good breath of fresh air in the series, but they’ve really been dropping the ball on these movies. Requiem was a real PoS.
What's a bad blooded?
If xenomorphs are the ultimate prey and they mixed with the ultimate hunter causing a predalien, which wolf had stalemated with up until the bomb fell….I’d say Wolf has the most impressive feats and is top predator based on what we’ve seen. Sadly we never get many movies that show a predator climbing ranks, usually them just dying to stupid human tactics or unblooded dying to xenos. We need better movies, more lore building.
Or a show would be nice. Maybe an animated series to reduce budget issues.
This is facts man we need a movie based on a predator’s rise honestly just give us subtitles I’m with a Yautja only movie forget the humans!
@@treyvvz I’m more preferred it to be movie tbh
@@treyvvz I feel like a show would be perfect. They can touch up on more details and lore more so than a movie could.
Co-sign
I personally consider Ahab to be the strongest yautja. His strongest feat was being able to kill an Engineer, which I believe very few yautjas have accomplished.
Pretty sure Wolf from Requiem is one of the most experienced Yautja we've seen in action in a film so far even if he isnt canon anymore
The Predator from Mortal Kombat X can throw hands with Scorpion, so he’s probably the strongest.
And Sub-Zero, and he can throw hands with the Injustice Superman, so...
@@sinistertwister686 MK scaling’s a gas.
The Predator from Mortal Kombat X mastered sorcery and could blast beams of Plasma straight out of his hands in a similar fashion to Godzillas Atomic Breath. He slaughtered the roster of MKX characters and took the amulet from Shinnok to become the Apex Predator. The amulet gives him the power to use sorcery.
I think it is safe to say he is the most powerful Predator aside from perhaps Scarface, Prince and Dark Predator.
(Forget that 10ft abomination from the 2018 Autism Snatcher he is irrelevant)
@@ja5onp00lx13 lmao. it should be cannon predator comes to Earth. finds out about mortal kombat. and competes
@@jacksonmullen2218 If a Predator actually participated in Mortal Kombat, it would be insane
Based on rank, Greyback. But going over actual feats and accolades, I would say Wolf is far and beyond any of the competition. Berserker is overrated. The movie shows us that he's only a little bit stronger than the average Predator. Wolf is an Elite, whose solely tasked with Xenomorph cleanup. AvPR showed us the Predalien cutting through every Predator on the ship solo, which also housed an Elder. Wolf was shown to be able to kill multiple Xenos routinely. And at the end he threw away his gadgets and stalemated the Predalien in melee combat. That feat is stupid impressive. Especially since he's exhausted his arsenal throughout the film, including his dual Plasma cannons. And he had been fighting nonstop and soaking up damage throughout the movie leading up to that 1v1. He would destroy Berseker. And if we consider that the Predalien did kill an Elder, Wolf stalemating it in melee combat while exhausted and injured is more impressive than the featless Greyback.
Wolf by a mile.
The ship that was carrying the Predalien was only a scout ship and not the flagship of Scar's clan. They don't mention it but in lore it only housed a few Youngblooded predators. No elder was on that ship.
No the pred-alien only killed 3 or 4 predators on that ship and that's because it wasn't the mother ship it was a tiny vessel that split off of the mother ship so no "elder" predators are in the smaller vessel. Watch the movie with directors commentary and it will tell you and also look closely at the ship the pred-alien is on when it massacred those 3 or 4 predators it looks entirely different and is tiny as hell.
@@Quintos. Then like I said, by Rank Greyback. But I'll have to rewatch it because I'm pretty sure the Elder went on the same ship as Scar. Additionally, the Elder would've been closer with his ship and crew. Why didn't he deal with the Predalien? An Elder being on the ship or not doesn't even invalidate my arguments though. No other Yautja here compares to Wolf aside from Greyback just due purely to Rank. Wolf just has too many feats and accolades.
@@dylanemery9855 from the rank it shows his feats and says it by himself to be a elder you need to be assisted by 2 other yautja and clean out a whole hive and kill a queen most yautja die but grey back lives and told the tail which wolf is 2nd and your right the beserker is overrated and the guy who said”he’s stronger faster just better overall” they are very slow and less agile just a little stronger and have better gear/more advanced plasma caster that’s it but greyback is indeed the deadliest from what it means to be a elder also 1.5% of the yautja race is able to reach elder
@@dylanemery9855 your argument is true and i think we all agree that wolf is the best after grey back( by rank) but the elder didn't deal with the predalien cause he simply didn't know there was one, he was far away once the perd attacked and the predator on the ship then sent a distress signal to wolf
To be an elite predator you need to be able to kill several fully matured xenomorphs and possibly kill a queen, this means that wolf most likely did kill a queen Xenomorph at some point. The fact that he went to earth alone to clean up the infestation, was rag dolling the regular Xenomorphs, and stalemated a Predalien that was a young queen with nothing left but his damaged wrist blade (and basically won the fight) shows that wolf was a very deadly predator and he is likely the deadliest to appear in the movies
Great video. I knew a lot about the lore and their culture already, but you definitely gave me a lot of new info.
Me personally, wolf is my pick. Take this into perspective: Aliens are extremely powerful just off of human hosts. Look how powerful predators are alone. Then multiply them together, and you get the predalien. And THEN read the statement that the predalien was a juvenile queen at that. And Then, look how wolf has been battling Xenos for literal days and then goes toe to toe with the absolute beast that is the predalien and wins. Wolf is just built different
I’d say Wolf & Greyback are the deadliest predators onscreen.
Then, we’d have Upgrade, Berserker, & Jungle at mid tier.
And Last, we’d have City, Feral, & Scar.
Also, Feral is one of my favorites despite being among the weakest.
I love Feral's design, and that hot-headed attitude of his is pretty cool, though it definitely lends to why he died on his first hunt.
@@coranbaker6401 first hunt on earth tho
How you put Beserker over Scar? and Scar killed a Queen with Lex?
@@rellbgm4473 Berserker is bigger, stronger, smarter, & more durable. Scar was overpowered by Xenos when he wasn’t armed. And if you go by lore, Berserker is a Xeno hivewiper.
Lets not mention the autism predator
The feral predator is my favourite predator, it’s just so animalistic and vicious compared to some other predators, which is what the director of Prey was looking for I think.
Its also the most stupid predator nor is it the most brutal that would be mr black. Who is the most brutal.
I think it's safe to say that brutal and animalistic goes to the berserker and the berserker was also way smarter than the feral don't get me wrong he was a pretty strong yautja but not strong enough to go up against berserker or wolf
@@gabrielheffner4499 Yeah I agree that the Feral Predator defiantly wouldn't be the strongest out there, but I still love the way he was made. I personally think the Feral Predator is one of the most animalistic, he is pretty aggressive too
@@dizzyWLRD I'm not entirely sure if he is considered the stupidest but I do know that he defiantly isn't as smart as some of the other Predators. We could see that from his primitive and extremely aggressive behavior. Also I do agree that he isn't the most brutal, but he is probably up there in terms of brutality.
I'm with you
I might get some slack for this lol but... My favorite Predator movie is Predators (2010) I know its not particularly popular but it's something about it that I really enjoy.
I've seen literally every Predator movie and 2010 (imo) grossly underappreciated! The concept of the humans also being "predators" in their own right (Yakuza, Mexican Cartel, soldiers, assassins, rapist, and a murderous doctor) was a great twist!
Also the mixture of ethnicity and culture created a interesting dynamic, the environment being captured and taken to a alien planet. EVERYTHING about the movies was perfect to me.
My Favorite Predators
- Jungle Hunter: The Original who hunted and fought soldiers.
- Feral Predator: Fought well against natives and french.
- Scar: First Predator I've seen who fought against Xenomorphs.
- Wolf: The Badass Elite Predator.
What do you like about fighting against natives and French
@@dustinchen
It’s the way Feral fought them.
Feral: The PRIMAL savage
when feral picked up the bear was crazy
Greyback must really be a whole other breed considering the fact that to be a clan elder would imply that you have the respect of the other members of the clan and to have the respect of Lost, Warrior and Guardian really says a lot
I feel so humbled to have seen my gameplay footage in this video, awesome work guys!
wolf > your choice
Even with Prey having taken place a few hundred years ago.. I don’t think they have ships that can travel the stars, go invisible and all the other tech and then not have a plasma caster. I think the predator just made the decision to kinda nerf himself a little, considering where we where technologically speaking and predator culture already thinking that kills with the plasma caster were less honorable.
yah, who knows
I mean we had lots of other inventions before we really started making high powered guns
@@KeyIssues It’s also possible that that Predator just hadn’t earned a plasma caster yet. I’d swear I have seen a video before that said predators had to earn the high tech weapons by first proving they could kill dangerous creatures without the caster. But that they also chose to fight at a similar technological level as whatever they’re hunting has, to be more sporting.
No he is a young blood and hasn't earned the plasma caster yet
He was a young new predator on his first hunt his superiors probably sent him out there like that as a test
Wolf imo. He’s got the most on screen feats while the other last round contenders are mostly supplemented through “official fanfic” written by authors who can ultimately write whatever they want as they’re not constrained by a movie’s budget. I’d say Berserker is an interesting second but that’s just me.
City Hunter was sick, Predator 2 was probably the closest to scary as any of those movies got. He took on two different gangs and a unit in the lapd. My favorite for sure.
AVP was one of my favorites. Because he actually hunts with a human to defeat a Queen. And in the end the Elder Predator gifted the human for sticking with the warrior to the end 👍🏼👍🏼
I haven't seen the newest "Prey", yet. But anxious to see it soon. Before passing judgement.
💯💯💯, same, that was SCAR ✊✊✊
Wolf is the most skilled of all Predators that have been in the movies, or at least, the most skilled we've witnessed in actual combat.
Yea because he's a elite and to become a elite you need lots of combat experience
Wolf is by far an elite Zealot type class..
I think he’s one that survived an alien trial and that’s why he has the leisure to chill until it gets real. Think about it most hunt in packs or have an elder. He was the first and only one advised and they didn’t have a mothership full of backup. Plus he’s missing half his mouth.. I honestly think he survived like the pyramid trial they show in AVP1. Just a thought. Nice vid! 😬
Wolf destroyed and killed at least 3 xenomorph hives along with their Queens to earn his status, and I repeat, AT LEAST. Had he been in the first AVP, well, there wouldn't be AVPR
Elite zealot just reminds me of the sangheili rank in halo which has the same name. Both have similar mouths too!
What a great video, i have respect for the Yautja now. I am now a fan of the series and want to learn more. Thank you and please keep making videos.
I liked and subscribed because of this video.
Of the listed, I think Wolf has shown off the most. Mind you, he never went up against an elite human (which are considered their ultimate prey, not aliens) but going melee against a predalien queen (even young as she was) is an insane feat. Say what you will about the rest of the film, Wolf showed off as one of the ultimates there.
But aside from that, one might also bring up the AvP predators. Not the movie AvP. The games, AvP Classic, AvP2 and AvP 2010.
Of these it's a bit difficult to judge. All three thresh through opponents with a kill count higher than any of those listed here, but what of their actual feats? 2010 pred was freshly blooded and manages to defeat a predalien. Pretty impressive, but probably wouldn't have him competing anywhere close to the top here. AvP Classic has a predator taking on a queen within the heart of her hive with nothing but a speargun and wristblades, and doing so successfully. Pretty damn impressive and would immediately catapult him near or at the top. AvP2 though...the Prince winds up with some impressive feats by the end. Leads a successful hunt only to come across a successful predator hunter. Launches an attack into a fortified human base complete with combat androids. Is ambushed and captured and only manages to break free due to sheer luck (a negative). Manages to escape a heavily armed human outpost beginning with nothing but wristblades including by jacking a dropship in flight and forcing it to crash into an alien hive. Is hunted by TWO predaliens who ambush him, which are handled with ease. Eliminates multiple praetorians and a queen within her hive. Finally, comes across the ultimate trophy: an elite human who's successfully hunted predators geared up within a heavily armed and armored exosuit. Those are accolades most predators couldn't imagine accomplishing, much less hope for.
Since most the Predators we’ve seen have been young ones, I do wonder which had the most potential had they not been killed.
City Hunter and Feral Predator both seemed to be skilled but held back by their carelessness, I suspect had they lived and received more training and humbling experiences, they’d have gone on to be close to Wolf level.
I want to see a movie where young careless on-the-job training predators are massacred by highly skilled humans, then these elite predators come to prove once again that they are the apex predators.
clearly inexperienced, i don't agree with the video i still think it's youngblood
Feral Predator was Young Blood, i.e he wasn't as experienced as other Predators in the franchise.
😆 l what I'm the world makes you think the feral predator was skilled?
3/10 stealth while being literally invisible,
1/10 awareness while having heat vision can be snuck up on by a human who is incapable of sneaking up on a cougar, bear and humans.
3/10 combat skill couldn't one shot two completely unarmored humans and got hit multiple times while fighting them.
Intelligence 0/10 the only way it fights is by coming straight at its victim and gets outsmarted multiple times by a girl who fucked up fighting rabbits, a cougar, bear and humans.
I'm convinced he was a short bus predator who got dropped off on earth because his tribe didn't want him.
You could be right but he’s the only Yautja I’ve seen use a humans weapon against them (the tomahawk and bear trap). He was also pretty accurate and efficient with his blades
From what I remember, even from separate canon, the Predators are very advance to the point of star exploration and plasma weaponry even before the start of human civilization. My guess for the Prey Predator is that it's still young and is given the minimum to hunt down humans. Plus, it can be from a separate clan and has different biology to a normal predator, so it may be a more Primal Predator that practices more "cave man" tech compared to other clans.
That’s exactly what I thought as well. His lack of armor and lack of energy weapons, I think a big part of their culture is their ability to prove they can hunt exceptionally without any of that until they earn it. Even in the AvP movies, while the youngbloods had heavy ass armor, it and their weapons didn’t have the special materials built within it that prevents corroding from the Xenomorph’s blood that Wolf had for example.
he wasnt even hunting humans when he came here, hes just hunting animals maybe for genetics? mf killed a rabbit then collected the skill and only killed humans when they got in his way
@@sillyme2598 maybe a scientist? :0 collecting various animal DNA for splicing and later, hunting?
If hes from a different part of the planet. He could just be a poorer lower class Predator. And thats why he doesnt have all the weapons. Also gives another reason why Predators hunt to climb ranks. Feral was fighting to get out of the harsh desert conditions it lived in
I lean more towards the guy theory of him wanting to show off, so he choose more honorable weapons, and he mostly fought in cqc, and yes he was young too hence why he wanted to show off and lost his cool really fast in the film
You should look into the Scarface predator from Predator Concrete Jungle. That one was insanely strong.
Yup yup that dude was hardcore killed an entire planet of hostile xenos with only his combi stick which is sick.
only reason why the crucified predator lost to beserker was because it was hung on the pole thing for days malnourished and weakened
And without a food
@@starsdealer3473 That would fall under malnourished
Cope
R.I.P to all Predators,who die to pleased us with The amazing performance and ended up dead at the hands of ✍🏾 Writers wanted them dead to Please the Audience and Earn money to raise a Franchise
R.I.P Brothers 💪
I think Berserker pretty much wasted his potential by being bad blood. Wolf can definitely beat Berserker because he has access to more technology as Berserker probably had his tech stripped off.
And being a rank above doesn't usually mean they're stronger, just older and more experienced. Elites are pretty much predators at their prime/at their best.
Rank does matter when he just explained berserker was a prodigy of his time he literally explains berserker had the skills to back it up
@@realdude6145 yeah rank does matter but that doesn't automatically mean they're more skilled.
I don't think Berserker got stripped of his tech. Since he's already a bad blood that hunts other Yautja, if he wanted more tech he could've just taken it from the many Yautja he'd killed.
I believe he's just extremely cocky and overconfident due to his reputation as a prodigy.
Wolf could take him, though he'd probably lose in an up close brawl against the Berserker.
But Wolf's smart enough to know his own advantages and disadvantages against Berserker, so it would probably never come to a close fight.
@@CheeseRunner but due to berserker's fighting without honor thing it could also lead him a win in close combat against wolf
It does matter cause in their culture the best fighters are in the higher ranks , being in your phisical prime doesn't mean that you can't get smarter/more clever in fights after your prime, that ancient predator looked like he could wipe the floor with even Wolf , more experience, even better tech , he had to be a prodigy to get to that rank so eventho he is passed his prime phisically (that doesn't mean that he is an old man like he was 70 or 80 when he can barely move , I would imagine it more like a 50 year old which is past prime but not old) he should be taking out elites no problem , if he wasn't the strongest then the others would not follow him most likely and or challenge his reign
This is fascinating. I would love to see more of this
If anyone's read the AvP book PREY you would recall that to be allowed to hunt Humans is a privalege. To be allowed to hunt humans alone should be an even higher rank status.
At the same time alot of these movies don't necessary follow the proper background so its difficult to verify it.
Wolf will always be personal favorite
He's very cool! The Feral Predator or Berserker is my favorite.
We need to get an AVP prequel movie with Greyback or something.
As previously stated, he has no feats but is the highest rank. It feels weird when characters who are out there doing damage on screen (ex: Wolf) get snubbed by someone else (ex: Greyback) on a tier list, because their in world ranking is higher, despite having nothing to show for it.
This is of course not limited to Predator and (unfortunately) common in other media.
Yeah, I agree. On screen feats make Wolf #1 without a doubt
I def don’t wanna see a gay predator.
@@kRzlamchop lol

Opinion valid fellow giga-chad 🙌
The way you broke down just a few of the rules and code in their belief system made me subscribe. Never heard it explained so clear and in a way that made the actions that the predators in the movies took make more sense.
That's what's I'm saying! Sent this video to 5 people!
Greyback has my vote. Theres a reason he's reached that status and the fact that he gets so much respect, you know he's been through/seen some stuff. Making it to that age is also a feat within itself.
dude, I love predator. But I was never aware of how deep the lore is. Like the whole hunt thing and religion behind it is awesome
I know he's called the Feral Predator, but I like to call him the Wendigo
I’m fond of this one
That's a pretty sick nickname for him! Love the way he would tie into indigenous folklore.
Cringe
@@AngriestPeanut shut up Mr peanut 🤓🤓🤓
@@KeyIssues Especially that the Wendigo lured its prey using the voice of their loved ones. Similar to how the Predator used vocal mimicry multiple times
In all fairness the predator from the movie prey is the only one to show the amount of power that they possess he lifted a 2500 lb grizzly bear like it was a 45 lb dumbbell
Upgrade predator??
@@teq8061 what feat of strength did he show?
Yea and i bet a grizzly bear would be more of a challenge than a xeno too. Grizzlies can move crazily fast for their size, not to mention their bite force which is one of the strongest, they can run up sides of trees, and they're behaviour is erratic, if u've ever watched bears fight, they go crazy for afew seconds and then back off, and they repeat this process until one or the other backs off.
Looking at the amount of cuts on feral after the grizzly had wrestled him for just afew seconds, if he were to carry on bare handed-ly fighting it, i'd honestly say the grizzly would rock him
R.I.P to all Predators,who die to pleased us with The amazing performance and ended up dead at the hands of ✍🏾 Writers wanted them dead to Please the Audience and Earn money to raise a Franchise
R.I.P Brothers 💪
@@_bellona_792 lol xenomorphs need multiple shots of highly futuristic and advanced weaponry to damage and kill them, a grizly will die if you shoot it with a regular revolver 😂 yea there's no competition
My vote still goes to greyback. He commanded a unit consisting of individuals that has taken down queens, not to mention most of them are younger than him, and if you take a look at his figure (hot toys ones) he doesnt have a lot of battle scars, which means he comes out of hunts unscathed. I'm guessing his best feat is not strength alone, but also decades of tactical experience.
Hence the old saying 'beware the old man in a world where men die young'.
The amount of detail to this series is scary. Makes you think it from reseach of a real species
Wolf is definitely the strongest, single handedly taking on an army of xenomorphs and the Predalien itself.
I think Greyback has also the experience necessary to be the best predator. Keep in mind that not only physical prowess is needed to be a good predator, but also mental prowess. Here, due to his experience, I think Greyback is above all the listed predators.
Id have to give it to Scar, he was always appealing to the eye. Designed well, character was brought to life well.
If anything id like to see a full movie showing us how life was on yautja prime
Based on feats we’ve seen, wolf takes the cake, but based on implications greyback would have to be stronger than all of the others, which implies some serious skill. He must be some sorta kryptonian slayer
@@user-yo2jl6rj6fshut up
I think my favorite predator is the feral predator because he has one of if not the coolest design yet and has quite alot of new "primitive" weapons
im gonna have to go with either wolf, the upgrade, or berseker aka mr black. 😁
he is a juvenile so yea all new
mined lost the green color bro and marking on its head is so unique
Predator designs are about about getting a good blend of the primitive and the modern which is why I loved the jawbone and tusks the “Super” Predators added to their masks.
You can easily go to far with the modern like they did with the Fugitive Predator but it’s hard to overdo the primitive aspect. I wouldn’t even mind seeing one with some Aztec/Native American feather decorations or bone made weapons so long as they don’t go all out and turn the Predator into an LOTR orc with mandibles
Loved that shot of the feral predator after it killed the bear and was covered in its blood
Prey and Predator are both awesome but I like Prey a little more because I prefer the intense hand to hand combat compared to a shooting match.
With you there brother. Nothing gets the blood pumping like a well choreographed punchout.
What shooting match? Arnold used simple weapons to kill the a predator
Personally I just wish this predator used invisibility less
@Roger the Space Marine Willie Williams fought a bear once ...
the “shooting” match was to show that our best special forces loaded to the teeth couldnt use their way to kill the predator, its not a “shootout” its the perfect show dont tell of how insanely dangerous a predator is
I think my boy Scar is very underrated, like bro he slained quite alot of Xenos and goes toe to toe with Alien Queen despite the help from a human, in my opinion he is one deadly youtja probably up higher in the list, not the most but man he is my fav
I reckon it checks out the feral predator From Prey was blooded, but having what I'm going to call the 'bolt caster' instead of a plasma caster along with the rest of its equipment just shows its individual preference in hunting style.
Would love to see the predators take on the aliens from “a quiet place” or the monster from “jeepers creepers”
What about the monsters from monsters Inc?
They stomp. Hands down. The quiet place monsters can be killed by shotgun shells. (There's no way they weren't getting killed by tanks and bombs. Armor doesn't stop shockwaves like that) the preds have nanomolecular edges and plasma weapons. They would assuredly one shot a quiet place monster. Might not even consider it a worthy trophy to be honest
Wolf is a very different Predator. He wasn't called to hunt, but to resolve a critical situation with several xenomorphs and a predalien.. c'mon, gotta mean something
He was basically master chief for predators
im really interested in the alien/predator universe and this video was very intresting and you should do a video on what's the most powerful xenomorph type (excluding the queen obviously)
That would be the queen mother or king alien.
I think current CGI and real makeup effects are now good enough to warrant a predator movie completely about the predators, maybe follow one thru his life, with him trying to achieve whatever rank, explore different species, just nothing to do with humans, maybe a cameo screenshot of Arnold, maybe they have like a wall of recognizition of things that have beaten them and they study them so they don't lose again to same species, I think a movie solely with and about predators would be bad ass and fun as hell, maybe one day
Wolf would take down Berzerker in combat, and Wolf fought many Aliens and when met Predalien he was already wounded, without many weapons etc. Greyback is probably best but there is question of age. I would give grey back N1, wolf and quardian at N2, Berzerk was dangerous but his status of leader was more likely being the taking command of his group, and not really being clan leader proper. I am sure that he and his friends would take on hive and win, but he him self would probably fail.
Read the comics berserker was done dirty in the movies
@@sillygoose4263 which comics?
@@hordynighthawk325 avp ones I forget which comics but berserker was the youngest one to wipe out a queen and her hive,he smarter,stronger,and faster than others like.wolf ,basically he is a bad mf
@@sillygoose4263 I checked it up and I think that one on one duel would be equal. He was really showed i predators as kinda brute. I get that he is stronger, but I still think that Wolf is more efficient killer. It will be like 45-55 chance in favor for wolf. We still need to take into consideration the movies and I know they did him dirty, but the combat against the other Yautja showed he is not that good fighter. The Yautja was beaten, crucified for days, starved and I dont know what else, and he still fought the good fight against such a prodigy? I would say that Berserker is a great hunter, but he is not a Brawler, that is what will give wolf the edge. Wolf is the elite fighter and he fought against predalien (Who is thought to be more dangerous than the queen in some cases) and he fought that thing without most of his weapons, badly wounded and probably close to exhaustion. I still think that wolf is better fighter in a duel, but after comics it seems to be much closer fight
I'd put Wolf as top Predator tbh, seeing how much he had actually been through and how much damage he took over a couple of days from multiple xenomorphs before he even fought the predalien makes me believe that would have gone alot different if the he was at full health and full weaponry.
We don't have anything on Crucified but I'd like to think he would have done better if he hadn't been strung up for god knows how long, he could have been up there for days, starved and weakened so he may have been a little higher on the list.
Thanks for the breakdown
19:43 The sound at the end scared the hell out of me watching this video in the middle of the night with earpiece on🤣🤣
Even before watching this I think the wolf predator was the deadliest. He basically screwed a whole nest of them and took on the predalien. And took on something that was much stronger than him. I think the predalien would of died if it wasn’t for the nuke. I think he could take on a super Predator. Super predators seemed like the Viking version of predators violent and short sighted.
Wut? 💀 it clearly said that a super predator is “super”ior in every single physical aspect like strength, reflexes, agility, endurance, intelligence, eye sight etc. experience is the main thing that makes a difference and a little bit of luck too oh and plot armor helps too
@@lebruhjames9007 but I think a predalien would violate a super predator, and wolf kept up with it
Wolf would shit all over every movie predator, even the upgrade predator if wolf had all his gear
Preach if only avp2 was made well. Like prey at least. It was too dark. Couldn’t see what was going on half the time
Imagine you’re being held by a predator thinking you’re about to die but then he puts you down and says sorry bro you got stage 4
we gotta hand it to the feral predator, it was tanking hits left and right and still didn't show any signs of weakness
I dunno, "Ultimate" gets knocked by losing to a human with no prep time, but he had a gun. The "Super" Predator Falconer lost in a one on one fight with a human with a sword (well they both lost). How's this not worse? 87 Predator didn't lose to Billy and he would have killed Dutch were it not for the outplay log. Berserker fought a weakened OG Predator, and the OG Predators are the dominant Predators, so I don't see how the "Super" ones are better, stronger, faster, like the film tried to say. The bio for Berserker is the same. I feel like they just tried to hype the movie and try and make a better Predator, when in reality they're just weaker and they didn't catch on. The OG Predators > "Super" Predators.
I wouldn't say the og predator was weakened he was pretty agile to be a weakened predator hence why he put up a good fight against the berserker but sadly he still failed. Now you see the "super one's" are better
@@gabrielheffner4499 He was literally tied up and drooling. He was definitely weakened.
Super cool video guys! I’m sure that took a ton of research!
I would honestly argue that the “crucified” & Wolf Predator are the top tier fighters that we have seen on screen. My argument being, It took three Super Predators to subdue and captured him. Once released, he put up an incredible fight and nearly beat Berserker Predator. Who’s to say how long he was up there? Bound, dehydrated, hungry. He still held his own and kept his honor in death.
Wolf needs no explanation. He would wipe the floor with any other Predator that we’ve seen on screen. Even Upgrade Predator. His experience, tactics, and sheer determination I think would win the day in almost any case.
There's a tie in prequel comic to that movie. It shows how the 'crucified' was captured etc. Pretty interesting read and shows the backstory of that one Navy Seal guy who the 'dropped' team finds dead at the start.
Nah bruh, the upgrade predator would beat every other predator 1v1. It's bigger, stronger, and faster. And it has heavily armored skin. Wolf couldn't beat the predalien but the upgrade predator would destroy it. Too big, too fast, and too strong.
@@daviddavidson1412 Wasn't Wolf already tired from killing xenos before actually fighting the predalien?
@@daviddavidson1412 wolf did beat predalien lol
@@mrdeafter it’s a tie tho didn’t you listen? 😂 it’s a stalemate
My favorite predator is Dark from the Alien vs Predator 2010 game. He was a brute in terms of strength as shown when he effortlessly picked up Xenomorph drones with one hand and broke their backs, ripped their inner jaws out, etc. He fought dozens of Xenomorph drones and marines at once by himself. He killed a Praetorian along with several Xenomorph drones by himself. Fought his way through Wayland Yutani Combat Drones and Xenomorphs, and fought and killed a Predalien all by himself, dragged its body up to the top of the pyramid from the very bottom of said pyramid and threw it off the pyramid and disregarding taking anything from it as a trophy and then assumed position as the Lord.
Yeah that predator is a beast. I just started playing this game again too
Falconer was my favorite of the Bad Bloods, standing his ground and honoring a fair fight. He might have lost, but he won his honor back. Kinda hoped he was forgiven of his "Bad Blood" status.
Side note: Lost has very awesome looking armor.
I keep saying this every time the predator movies are brought up and finally this movie is paving the way for it to happen. WE NEED TO HAVE A SITUATION WHERE AN ELDER HAS TO COME OFF HIS THRONE AND FIGHT! STOP KILLING THE PREDATORS! and the follow up to Prey fits nicely for everyone to see an elder be very badass. They're almost immortal when it comes to combat. AS ALWAYS keep reviewing and sharing and spreading the word so the studios can come around to these specifics.
Personally I do believe the Predalien is more dangerous than a Queen, from a direct combat perspective. The Queen's are very large but their primary purpose is to produce eggs and direct the hive, she can obviously defend herself (she's a Xenomorph after all) but that's not her primary roll. The Predalien on the other hand is bred for combat while also serving as a temporary leader until a Queen can be established, they direct the lower casts from the front and take part in just as much combat as the rest. They also seem to be far more callous with the lives of their fellow Xenomorphs, a Queen's greatest weakness is that she will not risk unnecessary harm to her eggs or subjects whereas the Predalien will often treat the lower castes as pawns sending them out to die and take damage for it if needed.
The scary part about the Predalien that wolf fought was that it wasn’t a normal Predalien, it was also a young queen
Great vid, I like all the predator movies but I guess the 1st would be my favourite, I would have liked to see them finish Royce’s story from predators in the comics the other predators respect what he’s done and give him pred armour and let him hunt
I have seen a lot of these lists ever since prey released, and you all have overlooked something obvious regarding the feral one, the reason he is so aggressive could be because of exile due to a severe handicap he very noticeably blind its almost obvious if you think about it, the reason he had the homing arrows, the fact that he didn't actively track with the crosshair, and when he is fighting the creatures he is hunting he goes all out in close range because he can feel the creature, but easily succumb to very obvious traps, and ambushing
PREY is really good. The Feral Predator is a great design. Thank you for this video. I was not familiar with the ranks, abilities, or stories of any of the Predators that show up at the end of Predator 2.
The amount of plot armor in prey is thick enough to nullify an atomic bomb blast. It completely ruined the movie for me.
Like literally think about how many times the main character was about to get killed and got saved the last second.
1. Being saved and carried back to the tribe after knocking herself out against the cougar.
2. Being saved by The predator when she was about to be eaten by the bear.
3. Getting captured from her tribes men and escaping because of the predator.
4. Having her friend "sacrifice" himself in the field scene so she wouldn't be immediately killed by the predator.
5. When she was stuck in the bear trap with the predator literally standing over her from the settlers
6. Being captured by settlers who also knew about the predator and we're trying to kill it even though her own tribe was unaware of it.
7. Having a conveniently placed bear trap and thin enough rope to release her and her friend from the tree.
8. Having her dog saved by her friend on horseback at the last second.
9. Somehow escaping from the predator that's 3 ft away from her because her dying friends stabbed it in the leg.
10. The predator literally walks right past her after she eats the flower even though the only thing that changes is her body heat as we saw in a previous scene.
11. Get saved from her lost dog in the middle of her fight with The predator
12. Get saved from being decapitated by a conveniently placed Rock.
13. Her dog gives her her ax mid fight even though it was never shown that it knew how to do that.
14. The helmet that she planted near the mosspit just happened to be perfectly aimed exactly and where the alien rose from (with a margin of error of about 12 inches)
If a quarter of these it happened it would be totally fine but they used up all of those chances early on in the movie so by the end it all felt like a joke.
@@StrengthScholar0 you have a point, but I still found it very enjoyable. I mean after all most SciFi, horror, adventure, and fantasy movies, and books are packed with plot armor. If it didn't work for you then it didn't work for you.
My biggest problem with Prey is how absolutely TERRIBLE he was as a hunter. Feral was absolute trash lol. I hear the excuses that he was a Youngblood which is somewhat fair. But I HATE hearing the “technology” excuse?. Like what did he not have outside of the plasma canon?. If anything he used MORE technology than the pedators from the first two movies lol.
@@hypeman1825shut up clown prey is a great movie and feral predator is badass
@@joesupg1695 Feral was so lame that it accidentally killed itself lmao. Hold that L
Favorite Yautja is Scarface from Concrete Jungle. Though movie wise, it’s a tie between Wolf and Berserker…and my favorite movie is the first!
U missed out some of the lost tribe but rlly good vid ngl
I have to go with Wolf. He went in solo against a Xeno infestation and was killing them left and right. Constantly had the predalien on the run. Then stalemated a juvenile queen predalien in a 1v1.
I love the first film, but 2 is my favorite. It really contributed more to the lore of the series* than any others since.
I wouldn't consider blooding against a xenomorph as a factor outside of the avp films. As for which is the best *hunter*?
City hunter. The jungle boy was tracking eight red and orange blobs through a jungle, all cool in blue and black and green. Jungle hunter never really lost track of his prey, and if he did, could mostly find them easily.
Based on watching, listening to, and witnessing the badassery of harrigan, city hun- c.h. tracked him across los angeles, identifies and tracks those close to him and kills them... danny, king willy, bill paxton and maria conchita alonso. Traveling the city on foot, he largely succeeds despite what could be considered a visual handicap (inability to distinguish humans visibly easily).
It's only because keyes and his crew showed up that he got stopped. I'm not sure harrigan would have been well-informed enough to have won, even if circumstances led him to the predator on his own.
*i discount the stuff from 'the' predator, as it was largely dreck. It was worse for its own franchise than resurrection was to its respective series. I say this as an unapologetic fan of that movie, btw.
The Predator was just an embarrassing experience, in general. That was one of the last Fox movies before the Disney acquisition
I feel like the top 5 are
1. Grey back
2. Berserker
3. Guardian
4. Wolf
5. Warrior
I and 2/ 4 and 5 interchangeable
Berserker does not have honor, wolf ditched his weapons and still got the predalien with him, royce killed a fully armed cheat berserker so he is weaker
@@claytonbugeja1125 after he fought a predator, hunted all day, took several grenades point blank, shot straight through the chest with a sniper, and was attacked with a predator club
Very interesting video. Until we see Greyback in real action I'll continue to say Wolf since he works alone and cleaned up an entire Xenomorph pandemic solo while also covering up almost all information even if he dies in the end. I feel eventually we may be introduced to another Clan Elder of even higher status but who knows. Favorite movie for me though is the original.
Damn, I had no idea there were so many different types? Honestly, I thought they were all just the same? Nice!
It's amazing to me how many people forget that climbing in rank is not just bragging rites amongst their other male hunters but it's what makes them desirable to the female predators that are even bigger and stronger than the males. It's all about the breeding, making yourself the most desirable possible to the Mateiarchy.
exactly, its why i bought a lambo with my millions, to clap cheeks
@@slinertheonegod2211 hahahaha. That's great shit
I never heard this part of the story lol. Now I really want to see how the female predators look like.
@@slinertheonegod2211 shut up noob
@@boss_niko People keep saying that but I don't believe it. A Female Predator was shown in the video. Basically just the average Predator but not as muscular looking, and with ykw, covered by armor, because, ya know...
At the very end of the movie Wolf was very fatigued, he was injured, he fell down an elevator and fought an army’s Worth of Xenomorphs there’s a scene where the predalien attacks wolf but immediately backs away after Wolf delivers a blow then it send‘s Xenomorphs to fight him it knows that it was outmatched in that moment it’s a scene that demonstrates the cunning of the predalien it waits until Wolf is at his weakest then it attacks. And I do not think that berserker should be in second he’s a prodigy don’t get me wrong but I think wolf should be there just because wolf is shown to be more skilled and more resourceful berserker may have more strength but he lacks in skill and he’s too overconfident which led to his downfall in his fight with Royce Plus a less experienced classic Predator was still able to get some hits in on berserker
I loved Wolf, Feral and OG Jungle Predator. But Wolf was a tough powerful Yautja. All he did was fight Xenomorphs, So I could imagine he was tired. Up to Fighting the Predalien. Overall I like this video. So much Lore of the Yautja.
A sick predator movie idea would be having a super badass predator like the bezerker and have him accidentally break the honor code which causes a bunch of predators to be sent to kill him but he fends them off, then it shows his story of heading back to his tribe to destroy all the predators that betrayed him
Since the alien tail spear was seen in The Predator, AVP is definitely still considered canon.
If the town wasn't bombed in requiem then he would have won and came out alive. He is imo the best predator. He is also clearly a weapons expert because he makes weapons from broken tech.
Edit: Prey is not better than the original in basically any aspect except for vfx.
Most cases, they only deal with armed humans or modified predators...In AVP, three went in...and only one managed to survive a xenomorph infestation for most the movie with helped from a blooded human....The Wolf went into an infested town, had to deal with a Predalien, Cops, the National Gaurd, and Xenomorphs....keeping in mind both armed humans and Xenomorphs are 2 of the most dangerous prey for Predators...I mean, it took a nuke to finally end him...
Wolf is a predator with so many kills that he's earned the respect to be allowed to retire. Even elders like grayback have to keep hunting. They called wolf in to deal with a threat that was beyond any normal predator or elder. Wolf killed an entire hive, was badly wounded and still beat a predalien queen in physical combat. If not for the nuke he would have won the battle. Hell we don't actually know if wolf died there. Buggers so stupid tough that he might have gotten hurried under rubble, walked out of it days later and gone back home to his planet.
Can't dispute that list bunch of badass Yautja.
Would love to see a film on just the predators. No humans maybe a hunt on another planet and showing a climb up the rank ladders
Prey is my fav just love the setting it takes place in
