You should
Yes you should
I’ll subscribe from you guys
Absolutely but I think these videos would improve if you moved choices in the correct order. Like you said Magnum XL 200 is Good and almost Great but then you put it behind Wicked Twister, Gemini, etc. on the same line. Maybe you can move it to the top of Good so you establish the best order.
@@maddmaxx46 I have done that in the most recent ones and will continue to do so.
@ 6:12 Dragster's first launch is amazing but I actually prefer its second launch. It's only a few mph faster but it makes all the difference ;)
Amazing: maverick, SteVe, mille
Great: TTD, magnum, rougarou
Good: raptor, gatekeeper, valravn, wicked twister
Average: corkscrew, blue streak, Gemini
Boring: iron dragon, cedar creek mine ride, Woodstock express
I like your list. One thing I must ask is how good are your rides on Rougarou? They must be fantastic.
@@ThemeParkAvenue last year I got some great rides on it, it has some pretty snappy transitions other floorless coasters don’t have and the inclined loop is just insane, not to mention the ride as a whole is intense and fast paced, it’s rly underrated to me and my favorite floorless coaster
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. no it’s cuz I sat next to a fat person and he pinned me to the side of the train and it was very uncomfortable
Was there yesterday kinda lit
Awesome. How’s Dragster running?
Can you do a seaworld roller coaster tier list?
I've only done BGT and SWO, so I'm not sure about that.
magnum is still my fave. i love that its rough and painful and u feel like ur gonna fly out. but u have to sit in the backseat the front is too much
I’m glad you love it and you are definitely not alone. I still think it’s pretty great.
The back is definitely more jerky.
Great video I’m glad you give the new B+M’s a chance instead of saying how amazing the rough “classics” are and complaining that the new comfortable coasters don’t give airtime and undermining the other forces.
I don’t even find B&Ms forceless. I can tolerate a number of classic wooden coasters, but even some of my favorite wooden coasters are not as enjoyable as rides like Gatekeeper and Valravn.
@@ThemeParkAvenue I don’t either they are my favorite manufacturer it’s just that the fans of cedar point love hating on b+m even though they are quite good and superior rides to magnum
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. just because it’s your opinion doesn’t make it right
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. it’s clear you only commented because you are an arrow fan even though they are inferior for proven reasons
@Arrow Dynamics Inc. Well well well. Someone couldn’t take a different opinion and just had to comment. I think you have missed a lot of big players such as Arrow having the worst restraints almost anywhere debatably worse then Togo. Also do you mean the fact that the B&M originals such as shockwave have been relocated multiple times and that they haven’t been scrapped yet? There’s a reason it’s because they still serve a purpose almost every arrow looper is now at a small park or scrapped. They have there reputation that is well deserved for being incredibly rough. If it was such a “great” wide another vendor probably S+S would have built new trains for them. Also airtime on magnum is quite subjective because of the restraint as I’ve personally seen people get stapled to the point of it being an uncomfortable ride. Also if you want to compare B+M beginnings to Arrow Prime then why didn’t you compare B+M prime which you didn’t talk about the invert the most well received coaster that was above 25 models. The only rides at arrow that are not completely painful are any of there suspending coasters but seeing as what happened with the bat chances are those will be removed sooner rather then later.
My ranking for all the coasters I’ve been on (worst to best)
Wilderness Run
Rougarou (I thought the restraints would nearly decapitate me, but maybe I’m just short lmao)
Woodstock Express
Mine Ride
Blue Streak
Corkscrew
Iron Dragon
Raptor (good but kinda boring)
GateKeeper
Valravn
Magnum XL 200
Gemini (SOOOOO GOSH DANG UNDERRATED)
Tie for 1st: Millennium, SteVe, and Maverick. I literally can’t rank these three.
Nice list!
I’m gonna be honest. Maverick is the 5th best coaster at cedar point behind dragster.
What else is it behind?
@@ThemeParkAvenue steel vengeance, Magnum, millennium force, dragster.
Millennium Force is a top 25 coaster for me. I definitely still prefer Superman The Ride for its more creative layout and superior airtime, which came out the same year, but Millennium Force is a nice big giga that fits perfectly into Cedar Point.
Those two rides are both in my top 10. I prefer the layout on Superman, but the speed of Millennium Force makes it so much fun and it’s still one of my favorite coasters.
Can I make a video like this if I give you full credit?
It’s definitely fine if you make a video like this, but you don’t have to give credit as I didn’t create the tier list itself.
@@ThemeParkAvenue Ok! Thanks!
@@ThemeParkAvenue I already made the video lol. It is premiering tomorrow!
Do a tierlist of all the six flags coasters or you can do park by park
Great idea
This was a great video I agree with the wicked twister but for the rides I’ve been on Gemini I would personally put in amazing bc it’s my fav
Cool! Gemini is fun, but I never got a ride quite as thrilling as others in the park.
@@ThemeParkAvenue I agree with this true and real statement it’s not as thrilling as something like wicked twister but the aspect of the restraints and racing is what makes it so good
Love your take on Valravn/Gatekeeper a lot of unnecessary hate gets thrown at them for no reason...
Thanks! Those rides are so much fun and I feel they get a bad rap for not being as intense as some others.
Steel Vengeance has a re-rideability problem for me. Those lap bars are so uncomfortable with that amount of ejector that I found myself more interested in re-riding Gemini when given the choice between the two. Not to say SV wasn't a ton of fun, but it's a one and done for the day for me unless it managed to get some better restraints. (same issue with Maverick for me but not as bad by any means, although when looking at Velocicoaster and Maverick side by side those clam shells make it not even a question of which is a better ride)
Never experienced a coaster like steve in my life, but I've also never experienced thigh pain from a coaster in my life. Until I back to backed a FR and BR of SV and Magnum XL. ooof I was bruised.
For taste comparison, my favorite in the park was Millennium Force. Didn't get the chance to ride Dragster, Valravn or Raptor though as they were all shut down while I visited.
That’s very fair. It is pretty crazy and I don’t ride it many times in a row.
Not me. I enjoy to get a fast lane pass with my girlfriend Marissa and ride both SV and Maverick 10+ times each in one evening around a nice meal pass dinner at the nearby Mexican restaurant in Frontierland (the one with the Chipotle/Qdoba setup)... good time.
Maverick was down the entire time I was there yesterday but still a great time got some walk ons on raptor too. This is a accurate ranking
Glad you had a good time. Thanks for watching.
I no joke prefer corkscrew to valravn lol. Corkscrew's airtime hill is amazing, and valravn was pretty boring imo
I understand enjoying Corkscrew, but I personally can’t see how a ride on Valravn can be boring.
@@ThemeParkAvenue I was physically yawning on Valravn a couple weeks ago. Granted I was jetlagged to hell and hadn't slept in days but I rode it to try waking up... no joy
I agree with you on Valravn, I really enjoyed that one and don't understand the hate.
I’m with you. It’s underrated.
Same
Great video! I enjoyed watching! I was thinking you would add CP's flat rides with it too though.
I would, but I did not create this template. Maybe some other time.
@@ThemeParkAvenue Oh I see. Yeah it didn't have Iron Dragon or the two kiddie coasters like you said.
Gatekeeper isn’t my favorite ride in the park but it’s definitely one of my more preferred. Regardless of how you feel about it tho that has to be among the smoothest rides there is. It’s like the rolls Royce of roller coasters
I agree. When I ranked the park's rides by smoothness, I had to put it at #1.
Probably the best tier list I’ve seen about Cedar Point rides, I’ve been there over 50 times and ridden every coaster at least 20 times, I 100% agree on all these rides, now that deserves at subscribe.
Thanks! I love this park so much and it’s great to hear thoughts from somebody who has also been here quite a few times.
I love your username.
Just went there this past week on a now 'twice in a lifetime' trip. It definitely deserves to be called the coaster capitol of the world but holy crap - those crowds! So, my take:
Amazing:
Mill. Force (my personal favorite) - Just simply amazing height, drop, crazy speed and airtime hills. I could ride that all day.
Maverick - amazing tunnel launch and really cool inversions, twists and airtime! My second favorite.
Steel Veng - the ride itself was crazy and out of control but RMC really needs to rethink/overhaul their painful restraints. Also, the prison like metal detector, pat down and forced stripping was way overkill and obnoxiously rude. He didn't even ask me for my phone number.
Great:
Rougar - very thankful they converted this from a stand-up to a floorless. Otherwise, it would be bad...and not the cool kind of bad.
Raptor - surprisingly very intense and forceful but not painful.
Gate Keeper - I love the near miss elements over the entrance. The restraints are less painful than Wild Eagle at Dollywood, the only other wing coaster I've ridden.
Valvoline - cool view of the water coming over the top after the lift. I prefer the restraints and smoothness of Griffon (BGW) though.
Good:
Gemini (or in my case Cancer) - fun ride! Great airtime and I love the interaction between the trains/riders during the ride.
Iron Dragon - Fun ride! I wish they would design a modern type of suspended/swinging coaster.
Magnum (but only in back/too painful in the front with those bar restraints, especially on those last three 'triangle' hills.) Otherwise, that so-called 'magic seat' in the front car is on the naughty list for turning my thighs in to not-so-pretty colors.
Blue Streak: A classic 'woodie' and their first coaster that was named after the Sandusky high school team. What's not to like? ...that was a rhetorical question by the way.
Average:
Corkscrew - still looks cool on the midway.
Mine ride - It comes as advertised.
* StopThrill Dragster - not running, although I'm sure I would have ranked it as amazing since I've ridden Kingda Ka which is tied for my all time favorite. Hope TTD returns.
Wicked T - not there anymore
Glad somebody else loves Millennium Force.
Bruh why do people love gatekeeper so much? It’s forceless, non intense and slow. 12/14 coasters on this list are then gatekeeper better lol
Actually, I think I’m in the minority. Most agree with you, but I have never gotten a remotely unenjoyable ride on Gatekeeper.
@@ThemeParkAvenue There's a reason why the lines abate completely after about 4pm every day the park is open. After about 6pm you can literally just walk on through the queue with no line, no fast lane pass, you just walk on even on the left (lake) side. People get it. It's still a top 10 coaster in Ohio, but it's not near the top of that.
This is a very fair ranking, the only change I would make personally is put WT up one more level into “great” but I know that’s a somewhat unpopular opinion.
Great video as always, I like these tier list videos, looking forward to the next one!
I love Wicked Twister, but it’s just slightly behind that tier for me. Glad you enjoy these tier lists!
I love that you acknowledged that gatekeeper is forceful. I was actually pleasantly surprised after my first ride on it because I was expecting it to be forceless from what the community says.
Same. After my first ride on it, I was shocked to learn that others consider it forceless.
It's definitely a slow and relaxing ride. Great view of Lake Erie and the keyhole passages are cool but don't get me wrong, it's not a thrill coaster and it's a joke whenever CP tries to market it as top 4 for their "fast lane plus" flexible 4th during the time Dragster is down whenever Valravn is also down... because honestly in spite of the great views, it's a B-tier coaster and arguably not as thrilling as even Diamondback from Kings Island.
I usually like wing coasters just fine but the only two I love are Furious Bacco and Thunderbird
You've done both of those? That's awesome. Do you find other wing coasters mediocre?
@@ThemeParkAvenue no I enjoy wing coasters but I prefer T Bird and Furious Bacco because of the intensity. Furious Bacco is the only wing coaster I’ve ridden that give ejector airtime
Baco is nuts at night on the front row. Pitch black speed. It's extremely, brutally rough though, well beyond any sane limits. The Inversion kills your shoulders on the restraints as you fall clumsily into them on one side and then another, and the headbanging... pick an inside seat.
Thunderbird has some great near miss elements.
@@visionist7 I was the perfect height when I rode Furious Baco to not hit my shoulders so that step down after the launch and the inversion didn’t hurt at all for me. And I honestly love the shakiness it makes the ride feel way more aggressive
My List:
1. Steel Vengeance (not really much needs to be said, also my #1 overall coaster)
2. Maverick (love the snappy transitions and the second launch)
3. Millennium Force (drop is pretty good and the views are amazing)
4. Magnum XL-200 (killer airtime, painful at times)
5. Gatekeeper (great head-choppers and feet-choppers)
6. Raptor (not the best invert *cough* Banshee *cough* but decent)
7. Valravn (i liked Griffon at BGW better tbh)
8. Gemini (the high-fives are pretty fun)
9. Iron Dragon (the track over the lake is cool)
10. Rougarou (had tons of headbanging, maybe just a bad seat)
11. Blue Streak (nice woodie)
12. Cedar Creek Mine Ride (better than Adventure Express)
13. Corkscrew (bad)
(I did not ride Top Thrill Dragster, Wilderness Run, and Wicked Twister)
Good list.
That's actually a fantastic list, much better than the OP's. And no, you didn't just ride a bad seat in Rougarou. It's a bad, jerky and painful ride, even though it's a very new revamp from the old stand-up Mantis. You end the ride clutching your femurs every time. I'd say Mine Ride, yes it's better than and less cheesy than Adventure Express though similar, is better than Blue Streak. Blue Streak and Corkscrew just need to go. It's pretty sad that Michigan Adventure's Corkscrew is WAY smoother and better than Cedar Point's, but it is. TTD definitely belongs at #4 or #5 at worst when it re-opens next year.
Malenium does need more love
Amazing: Steel Vengeance, Maverick, & Magnum XL-200
Great: Top Thrill Dragster, Millennium Force, Gatekeeper, Raptor
Good: Gemini, Valravn, Blue Streak, Wicked Twister
Average: Rougraou, Iron Dragon, Cedar Creek Mine Ride
Bad: Corkscrew
Good list.
Thanks for putting GateKeeper there. People say it’s boring but I think it has one of the best drops at the park. And the airtime hill is great!
It’s mad underrated.
It really is an amazing park. Can’t wait to re-ride all the coasters again this summer! Also, would you mind if I did something similar with Kings Island Coasters? It’s a really good vid BTW.
The park is fantastic. I’d love to see a Kings Island one from you. Thanks for watching!
@@ThemeParkAvenue I am working it now, a I don’t know how you do this in less than 9 Minutes. I’m trying to make mine less than 10 minutes, but it keeps ending up at 16 minutes!
@@Ochocinco_Edits it happens. Nothing wrong with a long video.
Already know magnum is in amazing tier
Just finished a trip with the fam to Holiday World, KI and Cedar Point. Magnum was one of the worst coasters on our trip. Do not understand the love. It was rougher than black and Blue Streak. A great hyper is glass smooth and this is not a great or even good hyper. Diamondback was far superior, even with the nasty back row rattle. I enjoyed Maverick, especially the back row. Struggling how high to rate it in those three parks (4 to 6). Hated the head banging on Rougarou. Rode it late and had such a headache from the head banging we ended up passing on Raptor, which I now regret. Our entire party had Orion ahead of Millie, so have to drop it to great. We loved Valrvn. Not sure why people hate it. Gatekeeper is great in the first half and weak after the break run. Almost the opposite of Thunderbird at HW. Gemini was fun. SteVe is everything it is hyped to be.
Interesting takes. I agree with many of the things you said.
@@ThemeParkAvenueOne of the great things about coasters is everyone loves different things. Some love negative Gs and out of control. Some airtime. Some all of it and just about everything in between.
Personally Valravn is lower on my list. Its not like its a bad ride, I just have never wanted to wait over an hour for Valravn.
That’s fair. I try to hit it when the wait is shorter as it does get a pretty long line.
Bro magnum is better then gatekeeper every time I rode magnum
I respect your opinion, but I would take my least favorite ride on Gatekeeper over my favorite ride on Magnum.
I rate Steel Vengeance as God Tier
Even a friend of mine agrees this coaster is the best ride she ever rode.
It is the best of the rides in the park
My rankings:
Amazing=Maverick, Magnum, Steel Vengence, Millenium Force
Great=Raptor, Top Thrill Dragster (put 2 or 3 elements after that top hat and it goes up a tier)
Good=Gatekeeper, Wicked Twister, Blue Streak
Average=Gemini, Rougarou, Valravn (not only is it a one trick poney dive coaster, it's the worst at pulling off that trick of the dive coasters on this side of the ocean)
Bad=Cedar Creek Mine Ride, Corkscrew
4:35 You enjoy it going over water? Since when did mines stress water? It really should have a tunnel and more theming.
The ride is not necessarily mine-themed with the water, but I enjoy the way it looks on and off the ride.
Nice video theme park avenue
Thanks!
I love gemini but good picks
Thanks!
Steel vengeance almost took me tf out but I enjoy it
It is quite insane.
The fact that i only rode Rollercoasters at cedar point 😂❤❤
Do Virginia coasters ranked
I haven’t ridden a lot of the good ones, but I like the idea.
Can you leave a link to the tier list in the comments so I can make one?
I can do that later, but for now going to tiermaker.com and searching for cedar point will get you to the list.
Valravn above Magnum!?
*REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
Yeah, I definitely have my hot takes.
You don’t miss
Thank you
Magnum is better than Valravn or Ohio Gatekeeper or Raptor for sure. Rougarou is arguably in bad tier because of the pain. Otherwise, not terrible rankings. Blue Streak is terrible but it never has a line so it's one you can ride many times on a busy day without a fast lane pass.
4:31 I actually think it's a Cedar Creek Ride.
I believe the name is Cedar Creek Mine Ride, but I could be wrong.
@@ThemeParkAvenue No, you are correct. That is exactly what it is called. But you had said, "Cedar Creek Mine Ride is next...and it's a mine ride (the type of coaster)." That's why I had poked fun and said it was actually a Cedar Creek Ride, because that is also in the name like "Mine Ride" is.
@@TommonSensePro oh. My bad lol.
Good Picks!!
Ion hate all five coasters it’s just that I pull more gs taking a shit than I do riding valravn
Not tryna argue, But Magnum is an easy S tier for me.
That’s fair. It’s a divisive ride but many like you think it is top tier.
Iron dragon?
It wasn’t on the list but I mentioned that it would go in average tier
@@ThemeParkAvenue is cedar point your home park?
Gatekeepers first drop in the front row outs it above valravn for me
Gatekeeper is slightly above Valravn for me but I love both.
Great tier was just bird tier
True
Damn valravn over magnum
Yes
Iron dragon is best no cap.
Iron Dragon is fun. I’m glad you like it.
@@ThemeParkAvenue and this is coming from someone (me) who is scared of roller coasters
Wicked twister is no longer there.
I know and I did make note of that in the video. However, it was on the template and I have ridden it, so I thought it fair to rank it nonetheless.
I find it Crazy that people put maverick that high. it has the weakest launch I've ever felt. I prefer rougarou and raptor over maverick.
I'm surprised to hear that. I think the tunnel launch has a lot of power.
@@ThemeParkAvenue yeah the 2nd launch isn't bad. The first launch is the weak sauce. I just don't get the hype of it. It's 8th at CP for me and I never got to ride wicked twister or top thrill.
I’d put blue streak so much higher?!
Glad you like it.
Finally someone who thinks millie is underrated
Absolutely, it’s a legendary ride.
Whatvp i hate about gatekeeper THEY GIVE YOU HEAR ME OUT NO ROOM TO BREATH
Face it , dragster is gone for good
Dude, you robbed Raptor and Blue Streak. Moth both up a tier and we're in total agreement.
Fair enough. I love Raptor and think it’s only held back by being surrounded by other phenomenal rides. Thank you for sharing.
Blue Streak is horrible and its parts should be sold to Michigan's Adventure and Michigan should take it and Zack's Zoomer and design a Steel Vengeance-like badass hybrid there out of that wood. Shivering Timbers with some re-track work can stay as-is.
