Maya reacts to The Bird Tier List - TierZoo

Hello there

[@andreicabantog3299]

Though I agree with most of your tier list and you make a lot of good points I highly disagree that Rattites are bottom tier. Humans, the most broken faction in the game, struggled in a war against emus, a member of the Rattites, even with their best weapons. Because of that I'd argue that the Rattites should atleast be ranked higher than geese (high B-tier)

@@duarteribeiro2558 The thing is, the whole channel is based on the fact that the world is one big game in which every player gets to choose their build. Of course he is going to tackle them as they work towards their own survivability, unless the whole gameplan works around the group, which is why they are also always in the upper tiers. Some animals work perfectly for their preservation as a species, but don't consider the single/the single is likely to die to serve the species. Given those premises, why would you consider this build worthwhile, or even good? Take the Salmon. It's perfectly fine, but had you the choice, why would you be one when you are so likely to die? I understand not agreeing or heavely disagreeing with x,y,z position, but you kind of have to play by the rules. Also, more often than not, the "comparing it with other animals" is true considering competition in the same "server", in which said comparisons make sense

[@saisubramanyamrajumohangou7819]

Lets not get ahead of ourselves now. Intelligence is quite important in increasing animal rankings. Dexterity and intelligence is way more important then pvp. Unless you are an apex predator like the tiger who can body other apex predators you aint getting an S.

[@Ockto_]

Watch TierZoo's Raptor Tier list. He goes in depth birds like Hawks, Eagles, Falcons, Owls, etc. Yes, owls are very good. However they have any glaring weaknesses. For one, unlike Hawks, and Eagles, Owls are forced to exclusively pray in animals far under it's own weight class, rodents, snakes, and insects for younger owls. If doesn't matter if an owl is silent if they're too weak to hurt a Falcon. Owls also have NO way to take down bats. Bats are a plentiful build that, if you can catch one, is a great source of EXP. However Owls CAN'T catch bats. Echolocation renders the Owl's silent flying useless.

[@ConfidentMelon]

@@Ockto_ Owls are a natural predator of bats; the owl's *Silent Flight* ability allows it to alter turbulence and absorb sound enough to approach prey undetected.

[@Ockto_]

@@ConfidentMelon I don't think you understand how echolocation works.... Bats make sounds that bounce off of solid surfaces, then bounce back to the bat. This gives the bad a full understanding of its surroundings at all times using sound. They use this to locate owls. An owl's silent flight is useless againced a bat because a bat would figure out the location of the owl from the sound bouncing of the owl relative to the bat. Also, obviously owls are natural born predators, but so are falcons. An owl could NEVER be fast enough to dodge a falcon who has built up speed. The only time an owl actually has change of beating a falcon if it's night time. However, owls can hit hard. Both falcons and owls have incredibly weak talons and beaks for mid flight combat. However falcons can bypass this issue by using itself as a living missile by flying at over 100mph. How would you react if a human the same size as you swooped in going 100mph right to your body?

I think the point is how well a species adapts to ever changing environment, gets its food, protects its offspring and generally proliferates... voltures are cool but will they be around in few thousand years... while owls, corvids and songbirds for example have much greater chance of surviving. Voltures are kind of a "one trick pony" in what they do...while corvids adapt extremely well...owls will have small mammals to hunt for centuries to come and can live near or in human cities ( at least in my city owls hunt regulary )...

He explained very well that Vultures are mid-tier because they are successful scavengers, being one of the few animals that succeed being dedicated scavengers but have some flaws in their role as tank. Their thick feathers, large size and large group size means they are good at locking down a carcass from smaller scavengers but are bodied by larger carnivores and since their lifestyle can often bring them into contact with large predators it means it is an unavoidable hazard.

"If it was about numbers, chickens should be a the top!" *Yeah, no.* It IS about numbers too because they're a good reflection how well a species is doing on a larger scale, but chickens don't really apply here because they've become domesticated and are therefore under the humans' protection, who pretty much have complete control over how many there are nowadays. If chickens lived in the wild like vultures, their numbers would shrink massively. Vultures are solid, but definitely not hightier. There's a reason they've opted to primarily feed on carcasses.

Tierzoo looking out for the underdogs. Putting songbirds and pelicans up in the tier list is respectable.

[@khornii7513]

The whole falcon owl thing is more than likely based off of power and success rate..... just as tierzoo explained the falcon's speed prowess is very situational and can fail very easily, along with the fact that they cant recover the potential energy required very easily.... on the other hand owls have generally higher success rate because of their stealthy feathers and like you said yourself more power.... so in general it makes sense that he put owls higher than falcons due to the benefits of having a more stealthy power based play style than the hit and run esk play style of the falcons.

Owls - _"allows them to fly completely silent"_ Yea, no. lol The rushing air over their giant wings, in a quiet forest (at dusk/dawn, night), makes their approach _loud AF!_ -Songbirds - Left out the fact that Ravens and Crows (and Magpies) are both technically songbirds [source: AKDF&G "Ravens are the world's largest songbird"].- -Therefore, they have an extremely high Base Intelligence stat, which needs to be factored in. I bet they'd roll a mage, if they played DnD.- 😅 _EDIT: Yea, ok, he gave them their own class. Fair enough. haha_ I have no knowledge of the Carrion/Vulture class, so I can't back you up there, Maya. Sorry. 😊

the bo2 soundtrack in the back makes it just way better 😂😂😂

[@guimello132]

maya got so trigered bc of the vulture placement KEKW

[@mohamedrandy6895]

love your vids

[@kamnse]

I love how her reactions are saying the name of the animal until the vulture comes up

[@SinkyPooper]

kakapos and kiwis never needed a reason to fly as there were no predators in New Zealand until the British invaded. Because of this, there are still small islands around NZ that no mammals can reach, so only native birds live there.

[@optimusslime6795]

I don't see why she is so shocked by the rankings. This isn't "what bird could beat the shit out of another bird" it's "Which bird is the best at being alive." What bird is the best at surviving, its why he says "build", its about picking the one that can last the longest.

[@optimusslime6795]

In short, vultures suck at being alive

[@itscozyinhere]

This was way funnier than I expected it to be. I expect the response video soon

[@happyfairyjerry]

Disappointed you dropped tierzoo, would've loved them

[@ColonelCatnip]

It can be hard to understand, but I always thought tierzoo made the rankings based on overall viability in nature. So like, the more successful a species is in their own niche.

[@NobleFiend]

The best part of this video is the black ops theme playing in the background

[@Complex_assault]

So somewhere in the video you said if it was about numbers chikens would be S tier, but tier zoo ranks builds based on their success in the current meta not specifically power or population. So vultures are more powerful than songbirbs but songbirbs are much more successful currently.

[@zombies5549]

Who are the parents of this poor young man?! And why did they name him Maya??

[@ottokaare5925]

What

[@Pokepunk]

this video is so cool but i can’t focus on it because i miss bo2 so much that it’s going to make me cry

[@Purriah]

As soon as he posted this I was watching and thinking about how maya should react

[@Whippee]

would love to see more tierzoo reactions from maya

[@orion5425]

That horse destroyed that goose and didn't even bat an eye

[@brallantp.2812]

Happy Feet actually tried to resemble most of their models off irl stuff. That’s why the humans appear... real! So they didn’t make leopard seals scary, they just are scary.

[@stykkz8738]

The canadian geese are terrifying, heard a golfer was killed and dismember cause he got too close to a nest by a flock

[@diannezavala4810]

Thank you Maya. Vultures are my fav animal and I appreciate your opinion S tier all day!!
