Literary what I was thinking

[@loukas7111]

Another thing that I love about Shadows of Evil is that it's a free map that every player can enjoy and also let's new players have an enjoyable experience with zombies

[@PaintAndPlayWithJay]

I would've put Der Riese higher - mainly because of it's replayability and simplicity. One of my biggest annoyances about a lot of the zombies maps that followed from it was that everything became so complicated in them that you'd either have to google everything or absolutely need a 4 person team with good communication to get through them enjoyably.

[@queuedjar4578]

Yeah Der Riese is easiest S tier pick ever. It's actually amazing that Treyarch got basically the perfect map design down after only 4 tries, especially when they would end up stumbling and forgetting what makes a good map for countless examples afterward.

[@clipzey1361]

thats kinda the point if u cant do the more complicated things then why are u fucking playing zombies the easter eggs are supposed to be hard

[@adamgomez1279]

​@queuedjar4578 , I don't understand what yall are on about. It's just as boring as any other waw map after round 15. What replayability is there on a map where you do the exact same thing over and again with no new result. Yet yall will say other maps are worse for the same exact reason. That's still bias, all of the waw maps should be pretty low on the list.

[@PaintAndPlayWithJay]

@@adamgomez1279 Think it's just down to preference - like, my fun of playing is just killing zombies and the only challenge I need is to see how high a round I can get to, all the other complications don't do anything for me. I just want try the mystery box and to unlock enough to get a pack-a-punch and then see how far I get.

[@grim5113]

I missed my gem Town in the video. Nothing was better to me than loading up a custom game on round 20 and just blasting away zombies for hours. Whenever I had a rough day, town was there with some meatbags waiting. I remember creating my own path where I'd instantly buy the mp5, jug, and double tap. From there on I'd simply train, buy more mp5 ammo, and wait until the end of the round to buy other perks/weapons. One of my favorite stress relievers since elementary school; town will always be in my top 5.

[@FreeCurrency-]

Highly agree ^

[@Csep1579]

Town will always be a top 5 map

[@lucienl8579]

HOT TAKE: Die Rise is mad fun, I enjoy everything about it. I grew up playing BO2 and Die Rise was always my favorite map because to me, being in skyscrapers and jumping from building to building was sick. I loved the troll potential with the sliquifier and trampoline. It also introduced Whos who, arguably one of the worst perks because of the way it works but to me it was just awesome to have a chance to revive yourself without QR. My main problem was never the verticality and dying from falling off the map, that rarely happened to me. I’d die most of the time from getting trapped in the small rooms.

[@Jose-st3fq]

i dont have the die rise dlc but i loved tranzit and one of my favorite parts about it was the challenge of when one of ur friends goes down and you hop off the bus to revive them but now your both stranded in a specific area until the bus comes back and you have to figure out how to survive i feel like the same thing would happen on die rise with the moving perks

[@oomenacka]

Die Rise deserves a lot more love imo! People love to clump it together with Tranzit, and while I can understand the reasons for doing this I would argue that it isn't really fair to think this way. The sliquifier is one of the most pure and fun wonderweapons in zombies (as well as unironically one of the most overpowered for high rounds across all the games), camping on the roof with friends is a ton of fun, and messing around with the tramplesteams to make absurd jumps across the map or to troll random players made for some hilarious memories. The map's flaws are also a bit blown out of proportion. The falling damage is rough and navigating around some of the lower areas can be a bit dizzying, but this map is certainly leagues beyond Tranzit. Unlike Tranzit, the map is fully accessible, there are usable weapons (the AN94 and SVU are two of the best wall weapons in zombies history), there are reliable methods for high rounds, and, rather than being polluted with fog, the environment is littered with so many interesting little details and chinese cultural elements that most players never even notice. It is one of the most easily forgettable maps and one that not too many people were thrilled with upon release, but I'd honestly recommend grabbing some friends together and giving it an open-minded second chance if anyone still has Bo2 installed.

For “Five” you should’ve made the noise when the pentagon thief spawns then have him just come out of a red portal to then place Five in C tier

[@coltforceplayer]

Bro Fr had a big hole in JFK’s head when talking about “Five” 😭😭😭

[@Emmetts]

Interestingly, the city aesthetic of Shadows of Evil is, itself, Lovecraftian. It largely resembles Providence, Rhode Island, the city where Lovecraft was born in and eventually where he died (only a few blocks down the road). Providence was in direct proximity of first steps of the American Industrial Revolution, and like many other cities, has been drained of a lot of its older industry. BUT, as a result, many classic buildings and cityscapes are preserved from Lovecraft’s time. It goes without saying that much of his work draws direct inspiration from Providence, with some of his stories being told through letters directly from his area of Prov. His short story The Music of Erich Zann is a pretty amazing description of his neighborhood, situated at the top of the steepest hill in the city, overlooking downtown. Anyway, great vid! Shadows is the goat

[@phatmanlovescake]

Never understood why treyarch didn't allow ALL their easter eggs to be done solo ...

[@_xxkx15_20]

I think zetsubou is still really underrated. It has a great atmosphere and I actually enjoy the set up. Getting round 100 by training in the skull room was extremely enjoyable for me and is probably my 2nd most favourite high round. The Easter egg is decent as well as it’s not too complicated and has an impactful ending cutscene (though some steps are kinda bs). The kt4 is a great wonder weapon and fun to use and the skull is the best specialist weapon in the game and is extremely satisfying to use. The map has so much originality which is often overlooked. I do get the map has its issues but honestly for me its atmosphere, originality and its enjoyability lands this map in maybe a low A tier.

You hit the nail on the head there for me... Kino introduced me to Zombies I would play it on other people's consoles , when I got black ops 2 and my own console the same time the game came out I would play all of the Black ops 2 maps and I loved Die rise, its my favourite map to this day... Purely based on the reason that if it wasn't for die rise and how hard it was and how tight the hallways were and how hard-core of a map it was I wouldn't be the Zombies player I am today. It teaches you such an immense amount of skill that you could easily become a top tier Zombies player and it makes every other map easier. I was scared of moon and five before die rise... What I'm trying to say is die rise built me up to be an absolute op Zombies player so literally any other map was just a walk in the park and that's why I love it.

The whole setup with the map animations on the tier list is excellent. Great video and definitely my favorite of the “zombies maps ranked” video styles

[@ramzilla95]

Definitely enjoyed the comedic approach to this ranking. Map design and the different features for each one are just way too nebulous to provide an objective critique, so being upfront that this is purely your own thoughts about the maps and how you feel about them gives it a personal touch that I adore. And your reasoning for each ranking remained consistent and understandable. While I'm not sure I have the exact same order as you do, your Top 3 are exactly the same as mine. Every other map I have some major gripe(s) with, but those 3 are easily the best IMO. And while I don't agree with Nacht being at the very bottom (Die Rise and Tranzit are both god-awful experiences), I can understand the frustrations with its extremely simplistic and slow design.

[@McColin43]

I can agree with almost all of this list (though the nostalgia of laughing at my friends falling off of Die Rise and then doing the same thing myself a few rounds later bumps it up a few places). The only thing that keeps Gorod Krovi from being really good for me personally is the fact that I feel like I have a grocery list of things to do just to get settled. Origins is similar but again it’s personal preference. All in all great video.

The animation and humor are well balanced and make this probably the best produced tier list of the maps I’ve seen! I personally thinking categorizing maps is a fun way to rank. For example, challenge /no step maps like Nacht/ Verruckt/Nuketown, normal setup like Kino, and the more advanced maps. My mood entirely affects which category I actually want to play, and I never really try to compare the categories. They cater to different needs and wants.
