4:18 Andrewsarchus used to be depicted as a large, wolf-like predator, but once recognized as a relative of whales, hippos, and Entelodonts, it was reinterpreted as a more hippo/pig-like creature. EDIT: The "indoraptor" you fought was actually a megaraptoran.
It most likely looked like some fusion between the 2. Given their snout is the ***only*** full part of it we found. It most likely didn't look *this much* like a pig. Having an incredibly large amount of neck fat in comparison to the rest of it's body. And probably more like a Bison of some sort to support it's very elongated snout. Especially given *where* the fossil was found and what it most likely ate. It probably focused more on strength and muscle mass than Fat and overall Weight.
I love when whitney is playing with him its great duo of chaos and the one who tries to not to get in trouble but gives into beaver chaos at some point
I think the Andrewsarchus in this game looks similar to a Hippo. As you said about Andrewsarchus, Hippos are closely related to whales being part of a group of animals called Whippomorpha/Cetancodonta.
I wonder how accurate the model is since, just like James said, Andrews usually portrayed as canine-like creatures, but they are closely related to pigs and whales

That Maip kill was amazing bro lol. I thought she was a pork chop, but that epic save almost made me jump off the couch like watching a Football game haha 😝👏🏾🍻
Andrewsarchus is one of my favorite prehistoric animals of all time, and I adore how the modders made them look here! Just big ol' Hippopigs! So happy to be able to play as one in PoT now!
Please ever stop making dinosaur videos ❤️ I remember being a kid being happy I found another dino lover in a world filled w/ kids more so interested in other hobbies. The love for dinosaurs that spark each time truly does grow. BECAUSE DINOSAURS ARE FUCKING COOL POINT BLANK
The Dracoviper (the wyvern) has a venomous bite, not a breath weapon. As for the Noviana (the drake), I have no idea what it does outside of the role maneuver.
*HOG RIDEEEEEEEER!!* 🤟💖✨ fav bit; 23:35 James getting pursued by a revengeful Whitney: *NOJH! LEAVE ME BE!* XD **seconds later** James:there now i can drink-poos ):m Whittney on a warpath towards him: Oh yeyeyeyeyeye **NOM** **seconds of buffering later** james: WHITTNEY! >:O Whitney: REVENGE! >:D
The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a very fast building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy. Strategy His fast move speed can boost forward mini tanks like an Ice Golem in a push. At the same time, he can also function as a tank for lower hitpoint troops such as Goblins as he still has a fair amount of health. Most cheap swarms complement the Hog Rider well, as they are nearly as fast as him and usually force more than one card out of the opponent's hand. The Hog Rider struggles with swarms, as they can damage him down and defeat him quickly while obstructing his path. Barbarians in particular can fully counter him without very strict timing on the defender's part, though be wary of spells. A Hunter can kill the Hog Rider in 2 hits if placed right on top of it. However, if you place something in front of the Hog Rider, the Hunter's splash will damage the Hog Rider and hit the card in front of it more. The Hog Rider in conjunction with the Freeze can surprise the opponent and allow the Hog Rider to deal much more damage than anticipated, especially if the opponent's go-to counter is a swarm, or swarms are their only effective counter to him. Skeletons and Bats will immediately be defeated by the spell, while Spear Goblins, Goblins, and Minions will be at low enough health to be defeated by a follow up Zap or Giant Snowball. However, this strategy isn't very effective against buildings as the Hog Rider will take a while to destroy the building, giving the opponent ample time to articulate another counter. Against non-swarm troops, it can deal a lot of damage during the freeze time, but this can allow the opponent to set up a massive counterpush. For this reason, players should either only go for a Hog Rider + Freeze when they have other units backing it up from a counterattack, or if the match is about to end and they need to deal as much damage as possible. It is not a good idea to send in a Hog Rider simply to destroy a building, especially if it is the only building targeting unit available, as defeating Crown Towers becomes substantially more difficult. Spells or simply waiting out the lifetime of the building are more effective. The exception to this is an Elixir Collector placed in front of the King's Tower. If a Hog Rider placed at the bridge, he can destroy the Collector for a positive Elixir trade, though the damage from both Princess Towers will usually mean he does not survive to deal any damage to them. However, if the opponent sends in defending troops, it can be an opportunity to gain spell damage value. In a deck with several low-cost cards, it might be worth it to simply send the Hog Rider against one building. These decks shuffle their card rotation quick enough, that they will arrive to their next Hog Rider before the next building arrives in the opponent's card rotation. Long-ranged troops like Musketeer and Flying Machine can snipe those buildings, preserving some of the Hog Rider's health, possibly allowing it to get some Tower damage. When there are buildings placed in the middle to counter the Hog Rider, understanding the placement of the Hog Rider and the type of building placed can help the Hog Rider to bypass certain buildings. Passive buildings such as spawners and Elixir Collector have a larger hitbox than defensive buildings; which means that if a passive building was placed 3 tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, then it is impossible for the Hog Rider to bypass that placement as the Hog Rider will get pulled to that building. Defensive buildings have a smaller hitbox than a passive building, which means if that if a defensive building was placed three tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, a Hog Rider placed at the very left or right side of the Arena may be able to bypass it due to its smaller hitbox. If the player has a building already placed down in the center of the arena, and the opponent tries to bypass it with a Hog Rider at the edge of the arena, they can use certain air troops to push the Hog Rider towards the building as it jumps over the river, effectively denying the bypass attempt. They must be already hovering over the correct placement, as very quick reflexes are required to correctly perform this technique. For Bats, Skeleton Dragons, and Minion Horde, they should be placed right in front of the Hog Rider as soon as it is deployed. For Minions, Skeleton Barrel, Mega Minion, Flying Machine, Electro Dragon, Baby Dragon, Inferno Dragon, Balloon, and Lava Hound, stagger the above placement one tile to the right if the Hog Rider is placed on the left side of the arena, and vice versa. They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower. The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push. A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower. This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower. The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it. A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower. Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense. The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is. A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily. A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough
Yes! Behold the awesome might of the divine swine! Piggy power reigns supreme! I loved this, another fun video well done 🎉👏🙌🤌 get piggy with it! Love the David Attenborough impression. Also, loved the "leave me alone" dub for the Spino. I swear, I could go on about the many things I loved in this video, but I'll leave it alone
not quite, andrewsatchus right now sits right outside enteleodonta, they are sister group with hippos and whales, funny enough pigs are now even more distantly related to them. cows, deer,sheep and giraffes are even closer to whales and enteleodonts than pigs are, the hell pig name is sueper outdated @@Pichka_Odlichn03
Gotta say, this is my fav ep of yours. God I love andrewsarchus, and the animation of them is so CUTE. I am also amused by your formation of a pig army.
I really enjoy your PoT videos, when I have nothing to watch on YT i set this playlist on xD and if I'm doing chores around the house then this is also playing in the background. Thanks for your hardwork ^^
Loving all of the path of titans content lately, this game is so amazing and i can't wait to get it!! I hope you'll try and play rex again now that you know how to work the game, have a good week James
17:05 my favorite part of this video so far 😂, 22:22 new favorite, he needed Whitnee to get moving and he got it, also thanks to whitnee I have a new favorite word to describe being attacked, bibble
God I love seeing you play with Whitney. She has gotten so much better. Also I love this mod so much. The piggy is so funny and fun and I love the walking with beasts noises with the prehistoric park music you add.
Hello James, I love your Path of Titans videos as it provides your fans with a variation within the dinosaur genre. I was just wanting to let you know that a Little Nightmares 3 teaser trailer has been released recently. Just thought I should let you know as you have created content around the universe and I really enjoy it. Sorry to be a nag. Keep up the amazing work with your videos.
So, the thumbnail shows a Wyvern type creature. but Beaver is playing as a pig. Yeah... that sounds like our James.
theres also 3 pigs so..
Frfr
I hate dragons so I’m glad I saw pigs
Agreed sounds like him
you stupid?

EDIT: The "indoraptor" you fought was actually a megaraptoran.
The Maip, as it is called.
@@opusmagnus26 Thanks, wasn't sure which one it was :)
It most likely looked like some fusion between the 2. Given their snout is the ***only*** full part of it we found.

Ahh, that makes sense
"I'm the wrong lechonk for this" and "mess with the piggy, get the shivy" is hilarious
lechon only, mate
its lechon bro a filipino food
@vanarniebase797 no its not- its lechonk- the pig pokemon that was released in the newest game- I know it's a food- but not what she said-
Tf is a shivy
@@bingus4life prison shank-
The battles in this video are so epic. I have never seen two Andrewsarchus scare two t-rexes run and take the high ground. 26:49
I love when whitney is playing with him its great duo of chaos and the one who tries to not to get in trouble but gives into beaver chaos at some point
I love how it always seems like Whitney has have a delay in terms of acknowledging what beaver says which usually leads to a early death
Or even funnier: high-pitched screaming and fleeing.
I think the Andrewsarchus in this game looks similar to a Hippo. As you said about Andrewsarchus, Hippos are closely related to whales being part of a group of animals called Whippomorpha/Cetancodonta.
Could be
and descendants of pigs
That’s it exactly plus the Andrewsarchus was also a close relative of the Entelodonts and they were also Whippomorphs.
@@ToxicQueen2787pigs are much more distant relatives
I wonder how accurate the model is since, just like James said, Andrews usually portrayed as canine-like creatures, but they are closely related to pigs and whales
Never thought I'd see a bunch of pigs kill a full grown dragon, this is amazing. 🤣
PIG ARMY!!!!!!!!!
Piggies
I love how path of titans is a dinosaur survival game but the community just adds dragons. The modding community makes the game so much better
Now it's become more similar to the ark
I love how in the beginning Whitney chose Tapir colors ❤
I’ve been watching James for years and he still never disappoints ❤
Same bro, this guy is literally my childhood
iv been watching james sins i was 1 yers old
Same he is one of my favorite TH-camr because he loves dinosaurs so much
@shakesmilk462 what do you mean
Same. He's one of my favorite TH-camrs.
"am i an adult?" is a question i have to ask myself at least once a day. i'm never entirely convinced by the answer that is 'yes'.
Thank you for the daily uploads beaver, they are amazing!
Love when you guys play together, the chemistry is so much fun to see and hear.
Please thank your lovely wife for taking the time to entertain us ♥️
James and Whitney will always be such a fun duo that I'll never get board of

I remember watching Andy's Prehistoric Adventures when I was younger and always thinking this thing was a wolf
You remember that?
Well done.
I remember watching Walking with Beasts and thinking this thing was a wolf the size of a bear.
Andrewsarchus was once thought to be wolf-like. I think the model in PoT is pretty up-to-date accuracy wise.
not even close. skull is too small and way to fat.
It are sub species.
not accurate at all really, for now its believed it looked more like daeodon and other entelodont's you can check Getawaytrike's skeletal
No it's not even related to pigs, it's a sub species of daeodons
@@SharyK-_0 Not a Daeodon or Entelodont, usually its in its own family Andrewsarchidae

They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower.
The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push.
A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted
A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower.
This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower.
The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it.
A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower.
Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense.
The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is.
A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily.
A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough

Yes! Behold the awesome might of the divine swine! Piggy power reigns supreme! I loved this, another fun video well done 🎉👏🙌🤌 get piggy with it! Love the David Attenborough impression. Also, loved the "leave me alone" dub for the Spino. I swear, I could go on about the many things I loved in this video, but I'll leave it alone
Isn't Andrewsarchus more closely related to whales?
Yep. But hippos are also very closely related to whales.
Yep. But also hippos and entelodonts. The latter of which were pig-like
So I guess in that sense the way it looks like in this game is accurate. Sorta
It’s a relative of carnivorous she
Sheep
not quite, andrewsatchus right now sits right outside enteleodonta, they are sister group with hippos and whales, funny enough pigs are now even more distantly related to them. cows, deer,sheep and giraffes are even closer to whales and enteleodonts than pigs are, the hell pig name is sueper outdated @@Pichka_Odlichn03
18:06
I like how the carcadonto was like, “ oops sorry, I’ll go away”.
As an Andrew, I approve this message.
As havoc I respect your opinion
As a man, i stand neutral to this opinion.
14:34 the Tom scream caught be off guard😂
Beaver, you should set up a recording software on Whitney's PC so we can see her POV when you die mid-fight
Plot twist: The song is just a super editted version of Beaver shouting 'MY BROTHER! COME JOIN ME!'
Land whale! Anyone remember that?
Gotta say, this is my fav ep of yours. God I love andrewsarchus, and the animation of them is so CUTE. I am also amused by your formation of a pig army.
Legends remember Andrewsarchus had a fan favorite nickname in JPB back in the day, it is... LAND WHALE!!!
Glad to see this channel is still flourishing! ❤

I love how you played my brother from berserk for the opening that was great 0:00
Hello James, I love your Path of Titans videos as it provides your fans with a variation within the dinosaur genre. I was just wanting to let you know that a Little Nightmares 3 teaser trailer has been released recently. Just thought I should let you know as you have created content around the universe and I really enjoy it. Sorry to be a nag. Keep up the amazing work with your videos.
Missed your path of Titans videos, Thank you for making this video I look forward to every path of Titans you do.🎉
The gaming beaver I love when you play part of❤❤❤
That animation at the end of the video reminds me from another TH-camr who uses to animation in their videos
It actually is from that ytber lol
I am in love with this reconstruction, and its also really sweet that you two play together
Just a friendly reminder that boars, were, are and always will be a menace. But despite that, those guys look more like mini hippoes
I love how James named his second pig "poo".
My new favorite of all of your videos I’ve rewatched this a million times 😂
Best piggy play through I’ve seen!!!!!
At 29:06 Beaver should have said, "Piggies assemble and roll out!!!!!!!!!!"
so it would have been hilarious
the fact james thought that andrewsarchus looked like a wolf but only looked like that during the 2000s
8:58 That Maip look an sound just like the Night feeder of Primal OMG 💀
