Ok can I just say what a great idea this is? Making a very educational series with a fun twist that makes it more appealing to a lot of kids. I applaud you man! KZbin needs more channels like this Edit: Just to clarify I'm not saying this is exclusively for kids. But the layout of explaining it as if it was a game does help capture the interest of a younger audience. Of course it's also extremely entertaining for adults as well :)

[@NeverisQuiteEnough]

I think there's a slight misunderstanding about negligible senescence. It doesn't mean that your run won't end by natural causes, it just means that your chance of a non-combat game over doesn't increase with age. For example, a 66 year old human (team america) has around a 10% chance of dying naturally that year. By 73, that chance has doubled to 20% per year. For a lobster, that number will not increase with age, a mature lobster has the same chance as an old lobster does. But it does remain a constant threat and every year a certain percentage of lobsters will get wrecked by it.

[@TierZoo]

Good point!

[@spindash64]

Actually, lobsters do stand to risk dying more as they age, simply because each molt becomes a bigger ordeal

[@Monochromicornicopia]

"team america" world police Ameeeeeerica FUCK YEAH heeere to save. the muthafucking day YEAH!

[@jack-kz3qn]

Lobsters also have to deal with a larger xp cost as they age because of their size increase

[@davewolf6256]

I believe that the term "negligible senescence" implies that meaning. For instance, turtles were thought to have no senescence; it turned out that their fitness did decrease, but only slowly. I happen to believe that there is no such thing as total senescence. True, carp, turtles and Right Whales are able to live for multiple centuries. But humans, despite our intelligence, still live on average between 60- and 90-years-old. Furthermore, human mortality is still tied to conditions suspect in the morbidity of other great apes with 50-plus-year life expectancies--gorillas and chimpanzees. My suspicion is that whales and apes have such long life expectancies because they have survived as apex predators to the point that the genes associated with some cancers and autoimmune diseases have been selected out. Great apes have not survived in ecological niches long enough that these traits have been selected out--certainly not compared with cetaceans. It is unlikely that they will, since industry has largely elevated humans above the invisible hand of natural selection. Time will tell, though; a mass extinction that affects land produce may bring on the conditions to favor non-mutants. In fact, the agricultural revolution has made crop failure a greater threat than it has been since the Meso-Tertiary extinction. Hold your breath. That reply ended up longer than I expected, but I'm a little drunk.

Other things that are dead: whatever way he thinks MinMaxing is pronounced. Mini is thoroughly useless, as the 2nd i is used in both "minimize" and "minimum". Plus, it just sounds stupid.

[@user-qi6px5xd8v]

You could argue Min is useless as well using that logic, because i and n are in both minimize and minimum. MMaxing with Crustaceans? Oh boy!

[@ninjaboylaoprime]

I meant as opposed to maximize and maximum. You don't need the i there, so there's no need in minimum or minimize either.

[@aaronmalinka998]

love the content dude, hope to see more. I've probably watched almost all of your videos in the last 3 months, keep it up. Would love to see a past vs. present versions of different classes/species. e.g. woolly rhino vs black rhino, megalodon vs shark, giant sloth vs sloth, giant orthocone vs orthocone, etc.

[@bobbsaggit69]

A most excellent use and edit of Existence-X DLink well done!

[@FigureOnAStick]

Looks like the r/video mods are ostrich mains

[@jaxonu694]

Lucoa it is known

[@ninjablade2]

they're ostrich mains because they make a decision and then instead of engaging with the person they stick their damn heads in the ground and ignore it like it doesn't exist

[@1997Toonlink]

"I should just main Cloud", LOL

[@oussama7132]

Gin bayonetta though

[@askdrew8929]

Love the mantis shrimp. They also have a lot of evolution points in vision - they can see about 500 times more color variation than the human build.

[@joshie6213]

This guy is a genius for coming up with this concept

[@CreeperKeeper333]

I don't really understand why you have giraffes as C tier, they're definitely F tier in my opinion. "I need to reach food better. Should I use my points to evolve long legs or a trunk? Nah, I'm gonna make my crit hitbox longer than the rest of my body."

[@LimeyLassen]

You say that, but can you wheel kick a lion over a telephone pole?

[@CluelessTheLlama13]

I respectfully disagree. Giraffes are low-key OP. They require very little sleep (averaging 1-3 hours per day), allowing for much more time dedicated to active gameplay, and they have impressively efficient digestive systems. They can get nearly all the water they require from their food alone. Giraffes are also surprisingly fast and strong with top speeds of around 35 miles (56 km) per hour and a kick attack that can take out a lion in one hit. As a bonus, they have crazy long tongues that are quite strong and used like an elephant's trunk to grab food.

[@xs0ulLess]

CluelessLlama13 Mhh nowadays lions are too tanky to get oneshot by a giraffe kick, and the problem is lions dont 1v1 giraffes rendering that defense useless.

[@TheRealHelvetica]

Girraffes have range that makes Marth cry.

[@CluelessTheLlama13]

xs0ulLess fair point. Still a powerful kick though.

[@SmellyPigPro]

I just about peed my pants when "you were indicted" popped up.

[@millancche]

For some weird reason I always first read that word in my mind as "indick-ted", and then correct myself al last moment.

[@thatgingerdude8666]

Lobster crab and shrimp are my top favorite foods, thank you for making a crustatians list.

[@gungy_vt]

Recently came across the term "carcinisation" and it made me immediately think of both this channel and this video. While I'm not entirely sure how much there is to the subject of various species evolving into a form of crab, I feel like a video on convergent evolution (meta stagnation) could be pretty neat.

[@ehanviles7498]

I'd like to see your take on the viability of parasite based classes, especially the cordyceps fungus. On paper it seems like a great build having the bonuses of fungi and then adding on the bonuses of the ant.

[@Shad0wWarr10r]

I would like a guide on the canceled Unicorn, Werewolf, and the future planned Zombie

[@crazyhippo1103]

I mean he doesn't have a lot to go off of, considering that the only leaked footage has been confirmed by the devs to be faked.

[@shuriken188]

The zombie leak is a hoax, I'm pretty sure some players decided to spook humans into hiding so they could get better loot.

[@Mrcrazy80]

Yo, I've seen some crazy cool fanart of unreleased build blueprints. I think the devs really want to avoid going near the 'supernatural' trait, because it would fuck up the meta due to all the unpredictable combinations. Some claim 'supernatural' used to be a playable trait in early beta versions (back when new players were convinced that the dev actually involved themselves directly with PVP disputes and bans, which we today have no dev logs to confirm), but that's very likely just attention whores and clickbaiters. No telling whether or not the fanart and fanfics are based on actual concept art or if it's just bullshit.

[@johnpatrick1647]

+Crazy Hippo There hasn't been any confirmation from the Devs. Hell, most players don't even agree on who exactly is the Dev. Some actually suggest that the entire code of the meta wrote itself or was written by accident by the meta. They deny the existence of the Dev but than some believe in multiple servers even though no one has ever visited another server or even proven it's existence. All we know or can prove is the existence of this server. Whether there are forgotten titles, glitches, or soon to be released expansion packs, like the aforementioned Zombie DLC, the very soon to be released AI mandatory download, or the oft-hinted at but never released Extra-Terrestrial spin off, is besides the point; it's not like we'll get to play as them and that's the real rip off to this game. I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!

[@CommissarWombat]

Don't forget about the Pegasus and the Griffin!

[@jaythephoenix]

Once saw a mantis shrimp main bust a human player's finger. They got some stellar EXP for that!

[@steelman1506]

Holy shit 10 seconds in and I'm already excited. That Octopus just ate it big time. He thought he was the hunter; but really he was....ya know...

[@andyn2196]

If you level Dex as a shrimp, you need to find another game.

[@ThatFatGuy6969]

Andrew nepomyash scummy dex build lol

[@kinggoldcatter9932]

What went wrong with the dodo build

[@IceX92]

Human class raided their respawn point, forcing them to rage quit entirely

[@GypsyxDarling]

Human class is so toxic, they keep doing this to all kinds of builds.

[@Elmithian]

Kattywompus True. Though they seem to be aiming for the Space servers so hopefully we will be free from them soon.

[@Fjarhultian]

The Delicious-trait is a gamble.

[@PhantomVirus]

Fjarhultian I don't see the upside unless you're a trap based build, and the Dodo isn't.

[@danaronowicz635]

A tier list? Yessss pls

[@KochDerDamonen]

I wasn't prepared for the reference @3:20 when the video was new, and it made me laugh just as well the second time

"That's some Mortal Kombat finishing move shit right there."

[@lcethefunniorsmh6400]

Most of the time I like to my crab in battle , I usually attempt to grow my claws as fast as possible so I can drain hp during when the enemy is choking in my cold dead claws , I also always close my right claw for the slash damage while also putting my sensitivity on super high so I can look for prey and predators , I team up with any other friendly players in the sea so we can farm as much xp as possible .

[@e.j.wizerd2000]

This was agood video one of your better ones keep up the good work

[@marrusorthocanna1897]

HOLY SHIT 50k SUBS IN A DAY?! Nice job man!

[@101jir]

proud to say I may have been one of them.

[@ff7522]

jesus christ this is amazing to watch

[@mmaakk32]

Can you tier biome-specific animals? A video similar to your Cats video, but for a specific biome, say Desert.

[@gladehartdreamer5620]

he did the watering hole, its not a biome per say, more like an ecotome, but its the same principle, although he focused on tow animals, i guess if he where to do it biome specific he should talk about all animals that frequent that biome.

[@kostaurus]

Dust 2 best map, even in this game

[@mmaakk32]

Right, not just the S tiers. :P

[@mwalter98]

Mahoole Magic School i

[@JstBobby]

I love the bass cannon!

[@Rjflameify]

love to see the cameo the human player Excision got for the mantis shrimp, although think he belongs more in the dinosaur meta

[@steamonkey9927]

Holy shit dude when the hell did you get 100k subs gg dude (don't forget me you loved my comment once)

[@TierZoo]

I'll 'love' it again my guy

[@scapegoat4]

~40K less than a month ago, now ~130K Just goes to show that originality can still equal popularity

[@silversutter8270]

Talk about the bird class. I'm interested in the owl build because of it's insane sensory stats and because I really like the night time maps.

[@blueimp9827]

Owls got me to quit maining rodents XD I just got ganked waaay too often. Awesome build though!

[@PiscesintheRain]

Owls are a cool build, IMO, but when going for bird builds, for my money you can't beat corvids. Int stat high enough to unlock tool usage, coop is available but not required, not much grief from human players (some of them will even just give you stuff).

[@blueimp9827]

Corvids are awesome! And if you're more into the social/minigames aspect there's the birds-of-paradise spec that's part of corvids!

[@ninjaboylaoprime]

Owls get outclassed by power gankers like Hawks and Falcons, and are not specialized enough to challenge aquatic power gankers like Eagles, Herons, or Ospreys. They really only shine with stealth and hunting gameplay, and they aren't affected by extreme terrain.

[@piplup229]

I Wear Timbs yea, I'd like for him to talk about them aswell. Especially the "flightless" skill tree. I use it a lot. You may laugh at me but the build does have some good tradeoffs

[@JimmyDeLock]

A fauna and rewarding play-through LOL! I love it :D

[@gamemakerloch6964]

bass cannon by excision. thrilled when i heard it!
