Hey everyone, a few quick notes:
1: This is not my TeamSeas upload. That one is coming soon though!
2: Yes, I've already made a video covering snakes. That video, unfortunately, got copyright claimed and I had to remove a portion of it in order to keep the video up. I figured since that video was old anyway, I'd rather just remake it. So hopefully this one is way better, too! It's more than twice as long.
Making a vid of my fav animal you dont need to apologise

Yea, this is why I love this channel!!! This guy refers to everything as a game and I love that
All of the bloodshed with no blood is great the kids a the primary school really like the game terms like spawn killing and shortened words like stats
This is the one tier list you probably didn't have to blur out, seeing as the silhouettes are all just squiggly lines.
And because of that, it would've worked much better with pictures instead of silhouettes.

@@xxxthwagdrakexxx4672i'm 4 months late, but this is the best comment ever created.
Being a biology student and gamer, discovering this channel is like discovering Pokemon when I was a kid. It's wholesome
Omg this is exactly what it feels like compressed into one sentence
Ants are OP and deserve a tierlist.
With all the crazy adaptations over more than 10k species there's plenty to choose from.
Ants today are baby town frolicking compared to older builds. I still have nightmares about hell ants.
We must wait 8 months to get an insect tier list, sad.
agreed. There is even an ant that explodes itself
TierZoo should do a collar with AntsCanada
Bees are better
It’s said that the most OP snake was the highest ranking rattlesnake player, the legendary Rattlesnake Jake. He modified his damage and intimidation to the max by swapping out his rattle with a gatling gun. And instead opting for a hood like cobras, he switched out for a stylish cowboy hat, 10/10 aesthetics
He loss to a shitty chameleon z your point?
@@misterdeer5261 a chameleon that jake respected, unlike the tortoise.
that chameleon had huge teams of players helping to take the snake down, i dont think anyone coud have won that particular matchup. that says nothing about rattlesnake jake’s overall power and viability
A rattlesnake that can take on a tortoise but having a hard time against one bullet chameleon.
@@misterdeer5261 Not only did that Chameleon also have a gun, but it had a large party helping it. Jake also respected the Chameleon enough to not kill it immediately.
One nasty advantage of the boomslang's slow acting venom is that it can be easily mistaken for a 'dry bite', which can lead to people not seeking medical attention until the deeply unpleasant effects kick in
"Deeply unpleasant" 😂😂
By unpleasant do you mean bleeding out of every hole in your body 😂😂
@@sharkgrenadevr certainly isn't pleasant 🤣. But yeah, I do have a tendency to understate, fair play
this guy's channel is proof that you can make anything interesting if you just have the right idea. i wish teachers taught us like this
Facts
Animals were always interesting!
Animal facts are famously interesting wdym
Interestingly, venomous snake builds developed earlier in the meta than non-venomous builds! This means that many snake mains actually decided that trading out venom was overall a beneficial move. Wild, right? But I'm not going to call them wrong when Colubrid players are almost literally everywhere - clearly they're doing something right!
AMONG US
What the dog doin?
Clearly, they own an air fryer.
I mean, they also gave up legs, so they're no stranger to risky trade-offs.
To be honest one of the limitations of these tier lists is that they seem primarily concerned with solo gameplay rather than the success of the group as a whole. The list seems inarguable with regards to Colubrids when it comes to that criteria, but considering how damned many of them there are it's obvious that when taking the success of the whole group into account these are far from low tier. Garter snakes (genus Thamnophis) are literally everywhere in north and central America. It's sort of hard to argue that this is an F-Tier build when it comes to overall success.
Surprising there are snakes in low tiers. They always talk about how they’re in the SSSSSS tier
the door my guy.
Sounds like most people today too
ya lol
The throne, o great pun lord.
He missed (skipped) a really really weak type of snake, Western blind snakes. About 30cm, diameter of a big earthworm, lives in loose soil, no eyes and eats ants and termites.
Snakes have a buff that reduces the bravery of enemies within 10 yards, you have to be 375 Zookeeping skill to be able to dispel the debuff

But only for human builds
Alternatively you can gain the trait "reptile nerd"
Or alternatively have an uncommon but not rare mutation "Snek cute, boop"
This is the best pronunciation of Boomslang I've heard from a foreigner, thanks 💜
At 1:29 he called them snek players
You forgot to mention the solid snake. Highly effective stealth tactics, with excellent cardboard camouflage, and adept at fighting in close or long range situations.
Can't forget the rocket propelled grenades
In the current meta, it's been known to hunt hedgehogs, electric rodents, and fire-breathing tortoises, among others.
its also heavily dangerous to humans and should be avoided *if* spotted
Really struggles with stealth though, despite popular belief, the “clap of its ass cheeks” tend to give it away
And its natural mastery of the cardboard box continues to baffle biologists.

Nice place, son.
Snakes have also been able to make a niche home for themselves in the pet servers having a relatively small but loyal following and also most players in these servers have more skins than players in the wild realms
I feel brief credit is due to the Eastern Indigo snake, which is somewhat like a Kingsnake build, but much larger: they actually eat _Rattlesnakes._ when you can actually safely feast one not just a high tier build, but a high tier build with normally lethal venom, you’re probably a pretty solid build
Also, they actually party up with the gopher tortoise during winter months in burrows, keeping one another warm
As much as I love the Indigo, I doubt it could be ranked as high as the Kingsnake build. Everyone I know that used to be an Indigo main switched over to something else due to their reliance on and the decrease of Gopher Tortoise mains.
Kingsnakes also target and eat rattlesnakes, but the Indigo does deserve some credit for being able to take on the largest rattlesnake in the game, the Eastern Diamondback.
Unfortunately, in my experience, most snake players are incredibly toxic. I have almost never ran into a snake player that didn't mention my mother or low skill during a confrontation.

If you aren’t a competitive player and just want a fun, simple build with a lot of customization options, Ball Python with a human teammate is actually pretty great. The human’s intelligence stat often unlocks new skins and designs for their teammates, and it just so happens that the devs gave Ball Pythons a RIDICULOUS amount of customization options in terms of color and pattern. However, the ball python intelligence stat isn’t high enough to unlock new skins on its own (other than random loot boxes) so you do need a human player to help you out with it.
Good to know
Bullet Train made me greatly overestimate the damage potential of the Boomslang
They are still one of the only colubrids that are lethal to humans. The only saving grace is that it is not fast acting so you'd have ten hours to get yourself to a hospital.
"Snakes are the perfect example of a compact and streamlined yet still functional design. Tongue, teeth, venom, organs, bones, and movement capabilities all in less than half the space of the competition. Sleek, efficient, elegant. That’s what makes a snake a snake"
Is that a Heaven's Design Team reference?

Fun fact: it's well known that snakes have to shed their skin, but their lack of limbs makes it incredibly difficult for them to do so. As a result, they have a period of time leading into a molt where they're incredibly itchy and will roll around on rocks or fallen logs to scratch themselves. I've encountered cottonmouths doing this while walking on nature trails, and it's honestly very funny.
I really cannot overstate how much I don't recommend doing this and how bad of an idea it is, but they'll happily accept scratches from, say, a particularly long stick you found, and they'll lean into it because it feels nice. I, uh, wasn't a very smart kid when it came to wild animals.
Agi the snake whisperer.
I bet the snakes lined up for you to give them a got scratch.

That is SO CUTE!
"Making it very difficult to ever get truly out of reach of a snake."
That's absolutely terrifying sentence.
king cobras aren't actually cobras -- they're actually more closely related to mambas -- meaning you accidentally left out one of the strongest snake builds
The black mamba is literally just “why reinvent the wheel when we haven’t even perfected it?”

poor slowworms are definitely low tier, lol.
And the worms are like: „I may be small and slow - but can you survive with so little to eat as I am?
Also I have a bug Clan.”
@@molybdaen11 Slow worms are lizards. I say it because you seemed to have confused what they were talking about. No shame.
Have you guys forgotten how many snake mains that tried to 1v1 the devs? I heard some of their usernames were Leviathan, Jormungandr and Lucifer, They were THAT good as snake mains
Top tier comment
xXLucifer666Xx, J0rmung4ndr, and _LeviathanYT
Jormungandr didn't exist. Recovered pieces of text from a leaker living in the Scandinavian area claimed that the games final update would be called "Ragnarok" which would lead to the game being taken offline for all players. Jormungandr was supposed to be the final boss of the update who would crush the earth by wrapping itself around the planet.
Leaks been disproven ever since
@@CoolBird420 The leak wasn’t disproven, that was the devs plan at the time. What happened was they changed their plan because or the leak. Now… well I don’t have proof but I think they’re gonna do the next extinction event when the human players complete the nuclear weaponry faction quest.
I had to get rid of them in one of the first patches they were rivaling ME. But yes good comment

It's worth mentioning that kingsnakes statted into the "Mimicry" trait, choosing coral snakes
Batesian Mimicry is weird tho, Kingsnake, especially Cal Kings etc, may have adapted like Green Tree Pythons/ Emerald Tree Boas convergent evolution, extremely similar but totally unrelated species and adaptations. There's banded snakes all over the world, with similar colors and patterns, to venemous and non venemous. It's an interesting discussion for sure.

I thoroughly enjoy how educational this is and appreciate the hints of RuneScape
Are we not going to talk about this game's incredible OST? The diversity of the sound track is amazing! Unfortunately, unless surrounded by human builds, you won't hear it often, but the ambiance in the game is great too.
Most of it is other games osts
*if surrounded by human builds
@@meowcat5596 he’s talking about the life game
There’s a snake build that eats eggs
Personally I'm not a huge fan of how the soundtrack is entirely gated behind in-game paywalls of some sort, and mostly only available to human players.
Garter snakes do have the social skill though, something that the majority of snake builds lack. This grants them a good safety in numbers and does wonders paired with their Live Birth trait. Garter snakes also have a unique cold resistance trait which allows them to thrive in some rather absurdly out of place servers such as Canada.
Clearly a garter snake main right here. Idk what you see in them man but respect for not being a meta slave.
I second that. Garter snakes do have social skills and are the most friendly of the nope noodle builds. It's pretty wicked to team up with S tier humans who do gardening. Meta is overrated to the enjoyment.
They really do. I stepped on one barefoot one time and all he did was just slither over my foot like a little snake bro.
A skill some humans even lack
Although the garter snake supposedly carries rear fanged venom vipers like copperheads and most rattlesnakes live communally. This not only brings up their social meter but the extra protection of frontal fangs would bring them up a whole tier in my opinion.
Back when my grandfather used to be on the server, even though he was the classic OP human build, he would regularly make absolute fools out of snakes. In particular, the copperhead players, since he seemed to have a bone to pick with them for whatever reason. All this with very conservative stats on his build as well as old, out of meta equipment, like an axe.
Ah yes, I also knew a human player who used a shovel as his go-to weapon against copperheads. Free exp, baby!

@@trevorhegstrom2816 S tier for sure.
@@trevorhegstrom2816 From what I remember the sea snake and taipan are closely related and similar in playstyle
@@YTLoverSDab the sea snake, cobra, taipan, and mamba are all in the same family of snakes known as the elapids so ofc they’re all s-tier. Taipans however are actually quite shy which is why the aggressive mamba tops them even though their venom isn’t as strong as the taipan’s.
It’s funny how people view Australia.. a lot of time on their builds you mean that a few just specced into venom because they’re slower and not as powerful as the prey on the server? Ricky Mack photographs taipans from less than 2 feet away... black mumbas can strike up to 2/3rds of their body length in distance.. if he tried that with a mamba he’d be smoked..
I absolutely love the over use of RuneScape music/sound effects/references 👌
I can't believe I just discovered this channel! Super entertaining
I'd argue that snakes ARE meta defining because most mammals, humans included, have an instinctive, pathological fear of snakes, which triggers regardless of snake species.
Some studies have shown that Humans have buffs for dealing the snake build. More effective Color vision and a higher resistance to certain snake builds venom, particularly Cobra venom verses other primate builds. This was mentioned in an episode on EONS if IRC. EDIT also mentioned was an instinctual Reaction buff where humans automatically recognize the build and react.
Those venom status effect spammer though..
Yeah the intimidation stat is so high
Snakes have no defense against range attacks like rocks
@@anon1403 common misconception. It's not a debuff. It's definitely a buff,and I'm not going to remove it.
Dude, garter snakes are a meme class from the outset. They're not taking the game seriously, they're just keeping up that comically intense rivalry with that one subfaction of newts. Seems kind of unfair to have them in the tier list at all IMO.
They are just playing fashionscape
To be fair, they are one of the most common snakes in the US, so they gotta be doing SOMETHING right
At least they own up to being a joke. Looking at you, cheetahs.
@@KnoxCarbon Honestly, cheetahs are heavily underrated. They don't really do that much damage, but they can have favourable offensive stats against builds of similar size, like lone hyenas and leopards.
Like that one guy who plays for ‘fun’ like who does that?
0:44 What a ridiculous animal
I’ll take 10
King cobra deserves a place in the S tier. King cobra are actually not cobra (Naja), they are a different species/Genus (Ophiophagus hannah), they are called cobra because of the impressive hood.
1. Growing up to 20 feet.
2. Highest quantity of venom delivery.
3. Potent venom. Although not at the same level of inland taipans.
4. Largely immune to both cobra and viper venom.
5. Too big for quick players (mongoose).
6. Extremely smart and thinking animal. Avoids conflict with the players that have cheat code (humans).
The top tier snakes are so strong that human builds have a chance to receive a morale debuff from merely seeing a snake, thinking that the harmless garter snake is a top-tier venomous snake

Black mamba DoT tick rate needs to be nerfed for sure, but also I feel the king snake mimicking the coral snake color was over looked in their defensive or stealth stats, thats some top tier 4head strats right there.

I think you should have talked about the Solid Snake. It's a really interesting build with high camouflage and a special ability called "explosives". I would have liked to know where it would place on this list.
Hmm yes, this makes my snake solid. Also it should be all versions of solid and venom snake and liquid snake too
Also their evolutionary history
it also was a max intelligence stat. With all of what you said combined I'd say S++.

Take my like and go back where you came from
Fun fact snakes are, in fact,meta defining in that it's theorized by psychologists that most humans fear of them is because they often lurk in the trees where our food and safety was in the past.
As someone who's lives in a forest I can confirm that we literally had almost all the trees in a 20 meter radius of our yard cut because any time something hit the roof our first thought was "Oh dear God please don't be a snake"
In fact, both geese and smaller felines figured out that imitating the sound of a snake was a great way to intimidate larger players. Of course, any player that's actually been attacked by a goose or a cat might avoid one that's hissing because "This Thing Hisses Before It Hurts You", not necessarily because "I Hear A Snake".
Kinda like the Sheepdog effect.
Don't forget that they're said to have led to humans gaining the Mortality debuff by baiting them into downloading malware. Though I guess most dataminers think that's just a creepypasta.
Jordan Peterson much. Snakes did give us the best vison of all animals except for birds of prey. Fruits and snakes gave us vison.
A few weeks ago I almost got struck in the crotch by a tiger snake, nearly 2 weeks after that I almost stepped on an Eastern Brown. I'm currently recovering from a redback spider bite.
I think I'm sick of the Australia map. I havent unlocked enough tokens to change maps.
For the kingsnake, its worth mentioning that theyve spent some evolution points in specing into the trait "mimic" to boost their intimidate chance. Specifically, they use a coloring which mimics that of the coral snake, a venomous and much more dangerous snake, to attempt to deter/intimidate would be predators. This can work to fool predator builds with lower intelligence stats, and even human mains have had to use their memory enhancing special move "Rhyme" alongside the moves "Teach" and "Learn" to come up with a rhythmic word pattern that helps them memorize which snake to avoid and which is harmless: "Red touching black, friend of Jack. Red touching yellow, kill a fellow". However, since venomous snakes like the coral snake struggle to use their powerful venom defensively, especially against avian predators, this isn't very effective, as an eagle or hawk, even if they don't notice the difference, may not be deterred from attacking what they believe to be a coral snake anyways.
The Mexican Milk Snake also utilizes this mimicry strategy with a similar pattern to the kingsnake but with whiter patches where the kingsnake has yellow, to attempt to fool predator mains into believing they are the dangerous and venomous coralsnake.
However, the human "Rhyme" is only effective within the USA region, as in other parts of the North and South American servers there are certain venomous coral snake builds possessing the "red touching black" skin
The biggest issue with snakes is that they’re one of the most glass-cannony classes in the game. They have some of the worst passive defences and their usually low weight class doesn’t help.
yeah but they do have a great pr team which makes everyone afraid of them on principle enough to be left alone a lot of the time
@@WyssV Tier Zoo is epic,
but he aint the only epic yt-channel, so i created the hobby for myself to recommend youtubers to people.
May I?
@@nenmaster5218 you'll just recommend your main CZcams CH lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂
Who needs defense when you can
A) Sit in a pile of leaves and be mostly invisible
B) One-shot anything that dares mess with you
Big constrictors don't have that issue, and there are lots of builds that get around the issue with camo or intimidation.
Ok, but corn snakes should be S-tier because they've maxed out their cutie-patootie stats.
YES! I second this!!!
Ball Pythons beat 'em out!
Corn snakes are excellent support combos for humans who are scared of venomous snakes or have family members who are scared.
Corn snakes are cats in (not-so-danger) noodle form
Exactly with this stat you get to easily max everything out with no worries since people are say to fool
I love how he explained this like a game
Thanks bro I was thinking about changing to the snake because human was just too easy this really helped me 😃
The AU server: Known for its dangerous snakes
TierZoo: Covers no Australian snakes
Bloody NA players
Absolute travesty
Really a crime, eastern brown snake is easily s tier
I guess Australian snakes are above S Tier, must be why they weren't included.
Black mamba still first
AU is austria, AUS is astralia iirc
Imagine being an elephant player putting most of your skills to get a Tamk character just to be killed by some spagetti
In fairness to the elephant, it would be overall a very high-tier build if it weren't for ivory poachers, and cobras are not all that common, so as a bad match-up, they're not nearly as disastrous as having a bad match-up against something you're going to encounter more frequently (e.g., lions). And as for the weakness to ivory poachers, elephants are far from the only build that struggles against the human faction; in fact, cobras are a pretty good example of a build that the human faction tends to suppress in a lot of cases.
That is why they are feared and revered by the name of "danger noodle".
@@jonadabtheunsightly bro I hate ivory hunters human mains I hate them they keep killing meee so I changed to human to police class so I can just arrest them
Poison DoT >>>>> tankiness
Yeah, that's the main thing you have to look out for when running an elephant build. I think the devs added cobras and other DOT-based snake builds to the game specifically to hard-counter the tanker classes in this game.
Human with Shovel has entered the fight
This is the coolest way I ever learned about animals. This is the best!!!!
Snakes are so OP that literally god himself cut off their legs during the beta
Yeah lol
You mean the leading Dev of the Dev team
@good one you are a bot
@SWTOWN 🅥 you are a bot
@@Odin2244 you are a bot
So OP they're lowkey meta defining. Multiple other factions have had to get anti-serpent perma feats and invest the hard-earned perk points to get them to Reaction tier in action cost. We may laugh at cats getting heart attacks over sudden cucumbers, but the serpents smirk. They know.
What is meta defining?
They control the meta
@@huskiehuskerson5300 That, as a class, they have impacted it so much that the meta has changed to respond to them, as a whole.
@@stevenn1940 Oh thanks
Its funny we laugh at cats and cucumbers when us primates easily get fooled by rubber snakes.
One that I think would be S tier if included, is the Indigo snake from South Texas. Venom resistance buffs along with high strength and speed stats make them formidable. They don't have any natural predators either, ending games of rattle snakes for their meals.
I main birds but snakes are like a second to me and I usually use certain snakes in the garter snake family as they have the easy reproduce special ability.
I so badly want an Insect tierlist. I could already imagine whats at the top
Dragonfly?
It would be hard since there are so many. Like some ants are S tier. Some are B. Some beetles would be S tier, while others would be bottom tier. It would have to be a specialized list. I’d like an Ants tier list, like with the spider tier list.
@@misanthropicservitorofmars2116 He'll find a way. He did a fish list after all
It just has to be driver ants
probably ants
Another important thing is that humans are instinctively weary of snakes, so much so that they even came up with the dragon build based on the fear of snakes and crocodiles.
This can work against snake players, however, as many humans tend to kill snakes on sight.
@@jamesshawcross3656 “uhhhhhh all guards snake KOS I repeat snake KOS”
True. But dragon builds are human fantasy which means you can only be them with games inside the game. This means that only human builds have access to them and human build games are just way to simplistic to this one, as most of them have a protagonist gimmick meaning you only have access to one character and their powers are pretty much fixed, meaning you can’t spend evolution points on them
"""weary""""
Dragon builds can take alot of other spiration too, from birds, to lions, even dogs in some cases. Dragons represent alot of humanity's fear of other species
I personally main the water snake, cause i used to main the titanaboua before it got nerfed, and for a while i mained sharks, but was missing the snakes advantage in hiding spots, so i found the water snake build and fell in love, i suggest you should try it out sometime!
