Awesome Tierzoo

There are nearly a million species of insects from beneath our feet to high in the skies above Earth. But which bugs are the most powerful? TierZoo offers an in-depth analysis of the varied and impressive abilities that insects possess and attempts to rank some of the major factions and builds.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course. But if you’ve ever watched an episode of Yellowstone, you know they can be dangerous and unpredictable. TierZoo offers its take on equines and their place in the animal kingdom. Despite their lack of horns or other pointy weapons, their kicks are formidable.

In the universe of living things, you might think that insects were pretty low in the pecking order. But as TierZoo points out, the individual abilities, collective mindset, and genetic makeup of bees, ants, and wasps make them some of the most impressive creatures on the planet.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned spending time in the Southwest, it’s always to check your shoes for scorpions. But are these creepy-looking arachnids as dangerous as they’re made out to be? TierZoo applies their standard RPG-style evaluation to the creepy crawlers to see where they stack up compared to other animals in the meta.

In the words of Austin Powers, “Do I make you horny?” That’s a question many animals ask on a daily basis as they walk around with bony protrusions sticking out of their heads. TierZoo explores the advantages and disadvantages horns and antlers provide animals with relative to other animals in the meta.

Our fine feathered friends have several key abilities which make them competitive in the meta, including the power of flight and pointy beaks. But clearly, some birds are more likely to survive and thrive than others. TierZoo offers up their unique take on various avians and how well they may fare in the universe.

Following up on their comprehensive Cat Tier List, animal analyst TierZoo delves deeper into the pros and cons of cheetahs, who ranked quite poorly. While these big cats are incredibly fast, they don’t have the defensive properties and strength of cats like lions, tigers, and jaguars.

Bats are often blamed for spreading disease, but is that their only skill? TierZoo looks at some of these little nocturnal flyers’ other abilities to determine just how capable they are of fending for themselves in the meta. They’re extremely mobile but have limited strength and defenses.

TierZoo has previously spent some time exploring the stats of iguanas. Now they look more broadly at their brothers in the reptilian world, from the tiny and almost defenseless skink to the color-changing chameleon to the terrifyingly powerful and and venomous komodo dragon.

While they look pretty badass, iguanas are pretty innocuous creatures, feasting on crickets, and lazing around under a heat lamp. But TierZoo asks us to reconsider our opinions, as they evaluate the mid-tier lizard’s skills to see if the they’re more impressive than you might think.

Fish represent one of the largest and most diverse collections of species on the planet. But are you better off as a goldfish or a catfish? A flying fish or a flounder? TierZoo looks at handful of these popular underwater vertebrates, and how they’ve had to adapt to survive in the marine meta.

Pterosaurs were one of the stranger parts of Earth’s evolutionary journey. Despite being able to fly, these giant winged creatures were reptiles. TierZoo turns their attention to these unusual avians to determine where they fit into the meta, and what sort of advantages their build offered them before they went extinct.

Crocodiles and alligators have been around in some form for nearly 100 million years, proving that their survival strategies work. Between its crushing bite, muscular body, and stealthy approach, these reptiles are among the most impressive predators in the meta. TierZoo dives into murky waters for a look at these grapplers’ key stats.

In the grand scheme of the meta, birds seem like they wouldn’t rank very highly, and parrots’ flamboyant looks are anything but stealthy. TierZoo explains how the colorful birds are quite capable of holding their own, thanks to their sharp claws and beaks, agility, and superior smarts.

From teensy tree frogs to the massive goliath bullfrog, there are way more species of these amphibians than we thought. TierZoo jumps in and explores the frog’s relatively low place in the animal meta, along with some of their special abilities that give them a little better chance of survival.

To date, TierZoo has focused its RPG-style analysis mostly on how animals survive in the wild. This time out, they’ve decided to look at their relative strengths and abilities should they make their way into cities, along with identifying which creatures are most effective in urban environments.

Elephants are enormous, strong, and smart, which should give them some serious upsides in the food chain. TierZoo applies their RPG analysis to these pachyderms to see if their advantages outweigh their lack of mobility or stealth in the wildlife metaverse.

While TierZoo usually focuses their analysis on animals, this time they’ve turned their attention to something a little more green. As part of the #teamtrees fundraiser to get 20 million trees planted, they decided to see which trees have the best overall stats.

TierZoo takes a look at some of the most impressive and aggressive animals on the planet. The hippopotamus is surprisingly fast on land and water, sturdy, powerful, and capable. It quickly becomes evident that you don’t ever want to mess with one of these guys unless maybe you’re an elephant.

Given the tremendous diversity of their shapes, sizes, and abilities, it’s no wonder that TierZoo’s in-depth evaluation of dinosaurs clocks in at over 15 minutes. While you’d think that T. Rex was the absolute king of the heap, you’d be wrong.

(Gore) “Very few cheetahs can reach the late game, where they can use their high mobility stat.” TierZoo uses video game terminology and esports analysis to rank some of the most well-known cat species. Yes, cheetahs are garbage tier.
