"I misread the title as "Are Cows OP?"' well hey, good news! I have a video with that title as well! th-cam.com/video/JTkWVHHUht4/w-d-xo.html
Ok, I will be watching that. (Lying)
Already watched that one!
Cows are OP, per my taste buds
Tierzoo, I love your channel and can't wait for your next videos. I love learning about animals a lot, thank you.
@@peterroberts4415 Mmm, beefy.
You know a build is highly viable when a guild of them is referred to as a "murder".
No, its not because of it at all. Why morons keep repeating this nonsense?
Collective nouns are really fun especially for birds. Magpies are a "mischief", ravens are an "unkindness". Personal favorites of mine are pandemonium of parrots and parliament of owls.
@@SplitDip The most fun one though is a Congress of Vultures.

The amount of clips about a Crow starting cat fight and just watching them kill eachother is unreal

@@HaganeNoGijutsushi I mean, cats are bird murderer so it make sense they have beef with crow

Just like crows, this channel also sits proudly in S-Tier. There really isn't anything like it out there.
I must have seen every vid like 10 times, which is also the problem whenever a new video comes out, TierZoo is the itch on your back that you can't reach.
Agreed. Every like and sub is deserved
I just saw how effective the crow's mobbing technique is against owl players on Casual Geo. I have to agree, crows are truly one of the best bird builds in Outside. Their high mobility and intelligence stats and tool use ability allows them to take advantage of the environment and other players in so many cool and interesting ways. And that's why I love them.
Amazing that these came out just a day apart from each other.
Crows are my personal favorite.
Thank you!
I love crows too.
Saw that as well, but then was very easy to find many vids of crows getting mercd by owls. 0 vice-versa.

Hi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
oof
6:32 Now that's something. Those are Magpies helping that crow fight the Kestrel. Magpies usually hate crows as the crow will pray on the Magpie's eggs. We see countless sky battles over our back garden in the spring time. We're used to seeing those three birds battle it out, but over the past few years we've had a family of European Common Buzzards show up in the spring and summer time and everyone, even Gulls, seem to team up to take on what looks like a bomber plane by comparison.
they're unionising
The only thing they dislike more than each other is everything else
crows will eat eggs but kestrels will eat eggs and magpie, the choice is simple@@ae3qe27u3

I got to do a fair bit of passive urban bird watching when I worked traffic control. The crows and seagulls in my city seem to be copacetic with each other, but as soon as a raptor shows up, they become straight-up war allies.
Crows, along with parrots, are my favourite builds. The high intelligence leads to a really interesting and varied playstyle. It's honestly amazing how many different creative strategies crow players can come up with.
high intelligence AND flight? yes please.
@@ghosthunter0950why not make them invisible while we're at it...crows smh
Crow players in the Japanese Metropolitan meta are severely OP, using their knowledge of human player constructs to farm loot utility initiatives. I think they're due for a nerf tbh.
I read the title as "Are cows op" and they just might be given they can teleport
It is known
Moo Moo Land never forget
Kamui style
My parents said if I hit 20k they'd buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging!!..
Oh they can fly? Yea sounds pretty op to me
They also have the special ability to break the sanity of humans by just typing the cheat code "nevermore" over and over in the group chat.
Eeeh that was one guy and he was suffering psychological debuffs that were being exasperated.
Sometimes you'll hear them say the rarer "wakakakaka" line
@@singletona082 exacerbated is the word you're looking for, though I don't doubt he was indeed exasperated.
There's a strange friendly interaction with some really niche human build that writes weird poems starting with "once upon a midnight dreary" and pervs on their 13-year-old cousin
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door-Perched, and sat, and nothing more. Quoth the Raven "Nevermore"
I just now realized that I've never seen a dead crow
I have a fascination with the builds that max out a given stat.
Humans with Intelligence, the tyrannosaur and mantis shrimp with Power, cephalopods with Stealth, etc...
I recently learned dragonflies have absolutely busted k/d ratios due to their maxed out mobility stat. They're considered the best hunters in the game with an average PK rate of over 98%, well above the second best hunters, african wild dogs, who tend to max out at around a ~60% PK rate.
A dragonfly breakdown might be video-worthy.
As far as I know the second place is seahorse at 90% success rate, but their sucking attack is only effective to targets several weight classes below and cannot be used as self defense. Still African wild dog's 60% success rate is pretty impressive when the vast majority of predators are at below 30%
The fact that Ravens train wolves to secure and guard their resources is so hauntingly human I am still not over it.
They're even seen playing with wolf pups to ensure a bond even in early age, they really don't fuck around
Could also be unrelated wolves noticing that when crows circle around, food is near
@@gideonmele1556 Ravens are shown capable of forming bonds with other species in many other instances. And wolves can also form connections with members of other species.
Ravens are intelligent enough to use them as a tool, and wolves are smart enough to follow these "commands".
There is also a lot of bond forming behaviour, and Ravens also lead wolves to cayote's and the like. So, it is extremely unlikely that it is unrelated.
@@gideonmele1556 yet crow or raven seems to never touch large carcass independently despite they already found it first. Not only the carcass possibly too tough for bird without hooked flesh tearing beak, it can give risk if they can attacked by something that interested in small animal instead of large carcass
Funny how high intelligence builds and liking dogs seem to go hand in hand.
The turkey processing what just happened then proceeding to get even angrier always gets me
hard agree
*turkey vulture
I think that's a vulture
"Okay... something just hurt me. Now, there's this strange black bird nearby... or FUCKING MIKE!!!"
Hi❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Not to be pedantic but I believe the bird with iridescent feathers @ 2:22 is actually a Grackle!
Yeah, that aint a crow I think
Just saw their twitter post, they did know this, just forgot to add a note!
*must not begin the Unidan copypasta. *
9:30 here we can see that crows are absolutely the strongest beings alive, they've managed to destroy a terraria chest with an item inside
If you have a crow in your territory. Make sure to befriend it for a passive buff. Coincollection
Also bottle tops. And just about anything else they can find that's small and slightly shiny!
Might not be so great. :-D When my grandma was a kid, she and her siblings found young injured magpie. They took her home and helped her recover. Then set her free, but the magpie was like "nope, free food and shelter from predators and elements? Sign me in!", and she stayed, eve tough she could fly away any time.
Anyway, soon after their dad started to find out that his cigs are going missing. He started to suspect that his son, grandmas brother, was stealing them and secretly smoking. Well, that was until he had to repair something on the roof and found whole stash of cigs behind the chimney. The magpie was stealing them, because she liked their shiny packaging.
Oh, and the magpie also learned to talk, at least a few word. But since my grandma and her siblings were teenagers at that time, those were certainly... choice words. 😀
When people preach about passive income this is what they really mean
@@cumunist2120it's certainly better than most of the alternatives lmao
Hidden perk
Two crows once joined a flock of feral parrots in San Bernardino, CA after a particularly deadly strain of bird flu wiped out most of the other corvids in the area. These two were seen "gifting" brightly colored pens to the parrots on occasion.
I don't want to overly anthropomorphize them but it's really cool crows can show a sense of gratitude to other species.
I would guess it’s less gratitude and more about making and retaining friends. Crows will do the same with humans who feed them.
Can't blame them, the humans in San Bernardino are more wild than the animals lol
I think it's normal crow behavior to give someone random stuff to watch for they reaction.
They do this all the time while looking for a partner.
I like the idea that its like 'Hey these are colorful, and those guys are colorful-- Perfect!'
Or they were just paying rent like the rest of us xD

Dude I can't stress this enough: You're far and away my favorite person on TH-cam. Thank you so much for creating such high quality edutainment content.
As a musician, I've gotta add that I had to rewatch the first third of the video three times because I kept analyzing the music instead of the content 😭 You don't leave a single detail out of consideration when it comes to quality and I love it.
@7:36 "Frying pan (Item Type: Cooking Utensil) This is an item that Crows can't use. But you can take them away from humans in order to make them look foolish" 😂
I’m glad someone took the time to read it 😂
Best part of the video 😂😂
This made me laugh so hard when I saw it. Peak comedy
Coming soon: Untitled Crow Game
It's a drying pan.
The thing about corvids is, they have funerals for their deceased members, emitting a specific scream reserved for those funerals, and if that's isn't cool then I don't know what is
Sounds like something which can be tested.
Try the scream at the next funeral you attend, gather feedback during the wake. If you find you're unwelcome at the wake, you'll know it's true and you were considered too cool.
Elephants and specifically mammoths seemingly have burial grounds for herd members who pass.
Its not so much a funeral as it is a post-mortem examination of the corpse to asses if the threat is still present, which is still cool in and of itself. Plus there is some evidence that corvids do mourn, just that this 'ceremony' is more a utilitarian thing as opposed to a social one.
This provides more depth as to why they're collectively known as a 'murder'.
That's cool
You are my favorite kind of genius. The algorithm is nerf because it took this long for me to discover your channel.
I’m so happy your channel is growing bro your editing and the background music with your voice gives me a nostalgic feel idk how else to explain it
The dog joined the party bit was gold. This crow rolling with a cat and a decent sized dog. Thats a very powerful team.
Every time there is an opportunity for a paper Mario reference you have to take it.
Brawn, Brains, Agility specialist team.
Tank, DPS, support
The parrot build requires only the most high value loot. I think the corvids trading some high end, sports car like efficiency for the ability to fuel themselves up with literal garbage is underrated. High intelligence is usually so high maintenance and crows make it look easy.
th-cam.com/video/KuLmLRHGFns/w-d-xo.html
Adapyability nearly always trumps specialization in nature.
If there ever is a ban on humans, personally I think Corvids are among the very top to take up their niche.
More so then Apes, Elephants, Dolphins or Parrots.
I wanna see another lifeform that can maintain high int by consuming only other animals’ vomit.
@@KawaiiEvoMiiThat's a bot... reason and arguments aren't going to do anything.

Amazing video, as always! My thanks to the editing team, they've done an AWESOME job for this episode! ❤️
Omg, centipedes are one of my favourite. I can't wait to see that next video of yours. You are doing great with every work you do, keep it up.
I had made a murder of crows mad once 5 months ago, my car is still being "painted white" to this day. They are vengeful creatures
I said i would say what i did to make enemies of the crow mafia if this comment got 1k, so here it is.
I may have or may not have ran over a crow on accident, and they may or may not have followed me home due to this.
and they teach their children who the enemy it, so you'll never see the end of it.
on the flip side, if you manage to befriend one crow, you've made friends for life.
Im doomed 💀
@@el_gato8109Your car is! Unless you live in australia . . .
@el_gato8109 lol, not necessarily. You do have 3 options.
1. Live with it. You might outlive the generational spite, and in 50 years, they might stop spreading rumours about you.
2. Make amends through gifts and trinkets. Intelligence breeds spite, but it also breeds forgiveness.
3. Leave. Just move out of the area, and ensure you aren't followed. Yes that can be a factor depending how pissed they are.
But yeah, getting on the wrong side of a murder of crows isn't advised
@@mobbs6426 im sorry, *FOLLOWED?* As in, THEY WILL GO WITH ME IF I MADE THEM MAD ENOUGH.
One of the best abilities unlocked with a high Int build is being able to form genuine personal connections with different species. Corvids dont just temporarily team up with wolves, they take advantage of their longer lifespan to train wolf pups and form actual friendships with them.
"Friendships" is debatable. More like owning pets.
@@yoursonisold8743 you can see your pet as your friend lol
@@keeprollin9911 Yeah you can and it shows a concerning lack of perspective. Friends should be equals. I'm not saying you cant love your pet, that is normal bonding. People can also love their cars or objects. Humans have the capacity to form emotional attachments to anything.
But a friend needs to be a peer and equal. If you have all the power in the relationship it's not much of a friendship. In romantic relationships this is considered bad for a reason.
To get back to pets, they don't have the capacity to understand friendship. They know obedience or have an instinct to protect and care for family. To the animal their owner is part of the family or their superior.
Crows tame wolves like humans tamed them before, to achieve a goal. It's a symbiotic relationship, not friendship. Playing with pups causes attachment, which makes them easier to control. Leading the wolves to food sources benefits both sides. In the end nature rarely does anything more than try to preserve itself.
If you want animals on the level of human relationships you need to look at dolphins, some species of apes and elephants. Not dogs or wolves.
@@yoursonisold8743 we got a yapper here
@@yoursonisold8743 i absolutely don't want to insult you or your thoughts, you have explained them very thoroughly, but i would like to criticise what you have said there.
first of all, friendships aren't romantic relationships. you should under no circumstances have a romantic relationship with an animal that is not a human. i think we both agree here. however, not everywhere where a romantic relationship is not an option often because of the power inbalance, is a friendship also impossible. for example a private teacher cannot have a (moral or healthy, i unfortunately need to specify this bc some people are disgusting monsters) romantic relationship with their student, however a friendship is possible. so i would not agree on your argument that freindship always has to be between peers with the same power levels. you can also be friends with your superior at work for example. just bc you follow someone's orders doesn't mean you cannot be friends.
if you see your pet as a family member rather than a friend, then yes, technically you don't have a friendship but a family relationship. however, id argue a family relationship esp if it between two beings that aren't blood relatives can have a lot of similarities with a friendship. so it is rather a discussion about terminology instead of concepts. in a family as well, not all members have the same power if you look at children and their parents for example.
not everyone sees their pet as a friend and that's ok. but you definitely can see your pet as your friend, and if dogs had the tools to understand human language like humans do, i bet a lot of dogs would use that term to describe their people as well. that's something we can only speculate about though.
the way my two dogs act when i get home after a couples weeks by nearly suffocating themselves sticking their heads through the holes in the gate, the little bumps or loud over the top yawns when they want my attention, how they throw themselves onto the ground when they want me to pet them etc it's hard to believe that they do that bc they are obidient or bc they want to protect me. i think it's more likely that they want the social contact like humans with attention and love from one another. something pretty close to a friendship i'd say.
When Outside needed him most,he returned.
That Battlefront II-themed intro brings back some great memories
While crowd appear black to us, they're patterned in the UV spectrum and allegedly appear blueish to species that can see UV (many reptiles, birds, amphibians and fish)
So their stealth may (very counterintuitively) be better against species with better eyes
Not sure either black or blue has a great advantage in your typical crow player environment!
@@Fledhyris plain blue no, but patterns can be handy even when they aren't colour matched (see tigers)
The weird part about the Stealth attribute is that when you break down its mechanics, it's actually context-sensitive to whatever detection methods you are facing up against. There is almost no such thing as universal stealth.
@@Strateliersomething the U.S. military struggled to figure out. 😄
Didn’t get why he said Parrots aren’t stealthy either. They’re being colors are a great camouflage in their habitat with all the bright fruits and saturated environment. They just aren’t the typical camouflage colors in ‘our world’

The music is so funny. Like something you’d hear on mission objectives screen.
As an Australian there's no sound more nostalgic than crows and magpies in the morning.
My early playthrough just wouldn't be the same without xXx_Nevermore049_xXx cawing out the exact same tune every single day just for my filthy human main ears.
I'm up in Maine here; I can confirm. I do love me some "RAH RAH RAH" in the morning, ha.
Love the Poe reference
Until swooping season happens.
Aussie magpies are differnt from eurasian magpies and are not even related to them, they are not even corvids
oh shoot i was complaining about the wrong faction
You forgot to mention that Corvids also have an incredible memory and can even communicate with others to share useful information. Like crows will tell them that a person with a certain color hair or cloth with a specific sounding voice will give them treats.
Corvids can also mimic words like parrots.
And they also love playing like we do. Like if in the middle of winter, if the crows find a bottle cap that’s large enough. They will use that bottle cap as a sled and slide down snow covered roofs or inclined surfaces just to then fly back up to the top with their sled and slide back down again.
Imagine being able to FLY... and get the funsies with sliding.
I guess it is like riding a motorcycle, rather than a car.

omg I completely forgot about your channel after binging all of your videos!!!! so happy to see new uploads ❤
I think this is your best one yet! Very enjoyable
i think an underrated side effect of high INT builds is that human players will almost always take a fascination with your build and will do things that directly or indirectly benefit you and your faction. Even going so far as to potentially make your builds INT even higher by performing experiments that test your INT and presumably in the long term would even improve it
Nice

At 7:00 you say ravens don't need to team up; you haven't seen them teasing sled dogs at feeding time. They form a circle around the poor dog, one of them pecks the tail so the dog runs after that raven, then the ones on the opposite side run in to get kibble.

He didn't They can't team up, only that they usually don't need the help. Basically they still can, But most of the time don't have to because of their size

this is the best TZ video yet. incredible work.
The custom 3D images made for this are so cool, your editing just keeps becoming more impressive
9:25 So you could say their main strength is literally trolling lol
Crows might be the most underrated in the bird faction. They can function as both foragers and scavengers, but are intelligent enough to use tools, recognize individuals of other species, including humans, and will develop relationships with some species that are mutually beneficial to both. They can solve problems equivalent to a Lv. 7 human player, they can mimic the speech of humans , and will work together to secure food sources
I really like the editing and the references to more games than usual
Please post more often you are def one of the greats and my favorites. Appreciate you man, hope all is well.
Considering there are social media posts of someone rewarding crows for finding them paper money, and then the crows literally showing up frequently with 10s and 20s... Yeah, they know how to play with other animal factions. Definitely OP. XD

Hi❤❤❤❤❤❤
the clip at 5:18 of two cats staring at each other and the crow pecking at one from behind somehow causing them to fight is hilarious.
He's lighting the fuse
That magpie was the excuse that cat was looking for 😂
cats doing the cat thing
i have seen that complete video. the cats were already in the phase of fighting. the crow was actually trying to distract them from fighting by pecking one
Cats, especially housecats, have all sorts of glitchy behavior. The story I heard was that they were never supposed to be a human support class, but the two player communities figured out how to make it work, there were maybe some unintended interactions (purr buffing is the obvious example). Instead of banning or patching it, the devs supposedly just ruled that if you want to do human+cat parties, you have to deal with the glitches as well as the standard communication barrier, behavioral conflicts, etc. But I have no idea if that's actually true.
Thank you, I've waited for this video for forever.
Absolutely killed this episode mr Zoo!
arguably another crucial factor for the strength and viability of corvids is the fact that they aren't the colorful weirdos that parrots are, and instead historically were associated with battlefields etc., and because of that they don't get hunted all that often to become an accessory or prestige item for humans. although the farmer subclass of humans really does hate them
Subclass....
Edit: I know what you mean and it's ok. I'm just messing around.
brother ravens got hunted to extinction in central europe, and china eradicated ALL crows for a couple of decades.
magpies have also historically been hunted down, but they are the most colorful corvids
i appreciate your point of insight, and think there is some merit to it, but your conclusions stem from a lack of knowledge.
By putting up ineffective effigies made of straw/hay to try and keep them away.
@@leonhardable central european here with ravens, magpies, and crows living in his town. so not sure why you believe they are extinct. They were hunted though yes, but in the modern meta not a lot of people give a shit about them anymore
@@attaggee i highly doubt you actually have ravens living in your city but you're right, i worded that wrong.
what i meant to say is "ravens were hunted to near extinction pre industrialization and are only very slowly coming back"
crows and magpies breed quicker and are harder to spot, so they always managed to avoid this fate.
anyways, corvids have historically been hunted down really hard.
Short answer: yes 🐦⬛
Long answer: There's a high possibility, yes 🐦⬛
I knew someone that had 3 pet crows. Their names? Edgar, Allen, and Draven.
The editing is amazing
excellent editing on this one!
black white is the by far most broken nightbuild colour, once my cat sneaked up to me and hit me with his collar on his or while i was gaming at night, the first thought that popped up in my head, me being an absolut fearless warrior, got startled thinking something demonic is going to tear my entire arm off the next second, cuz of the feeling of the collar and the light shining on the white fur while the black being invisilbe, making it completly impossible to render the creature standing next to u
Wow what a brave warrior you are
He's a cat so it was indeed something demonic. And tearing into your arm is also not out of the realm of possibilities 🤣
Yes. They're tiny feather balls with near-human logic skills and intelligence.
They OP
imagine if they also lived long enough to build up experience/level up (enter: Parrots.)
@@sizanogreen9900They do actually have long lifespans, although the urban jungle is just that, and predators normally put an end to it early.
In captivity, they can live 50+ years
I love your content and the funny way that you describe the builds. I just discovered your channel and I love it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I really liked the sound design on this one!
the OG battlefront 2 intro hit the feels
It sure did!
I was looking for this comment, hell ya!
Battlefront 1 & 2 ports on Steam if they were good.
I just commented that!
What a nostalgic reference
watch out for those wrist rockets!
I really enjoy watching these videos. I wish you were able to do more and within less time. I understand, though, that it takes a lot of time and effort to do what you do. Keep up the good work.
I love the new CGI shots and edits. They work really well.
Always a good day when TierZoo posts
bot
you havent even watched the video

Buffing corvids longevity stats to the levels enjoyed by human and parrot mains would honestly make them seriously op in my opinion.
If crows lived as longe as parrots we would be doomed
@@alilweeb7684 I really wish they did live much longer, they deserve it as such intelligent beings
Fun fact: a lot of people think parrots are the only bird build that has access to the speech ability but crows can do it too. It's just very rare for them to develop that ability.
You forgot one of the major differences between Corvid and Parrot builds. Parrot builds higher stat total comes at the cost of a more specifc diet which can be very limiting. But Corvids are able to use the Generalist perk so they can survive on a more varied diet.
Corvids can play in most environments while Parrots are limited unless they have a Human in the party.
9:36 That is the cutest thing
As a crow main, I'm glad we're given some attention outside of being grouped together with all corvid builds like ravens and magpies.
EDIT: After watching the video, at least we are generally being discussed.
you're a dirty raccoon bird, that's all you crows are. Parrots master species.
as a ant main i am your shower.
As another crow main I agree
I roast your kind for food
Crows are cool. Such fun little mischief makers
Ngl I think who ever is editing does a great job
4:59 getting the hostile bird to aggro a teammate is a genius move here, truly meta-defining
6:10 BRO CAN DO MATH!! BRO KNOWS ABOUT VOLUME!!
Rather, the bird *learned* about *a particular property of volume*, which is just as impressive. It probably doesn't have a proper concept of volume but only knows well enough that putting heavy things in the tube makes the water go up to get the treat. As for why, that's really only the domain of humans
Crows have quickly became one of my favorite birds
Super cool showcase how advanced team work can be just as effective as other high intelligence advantages like tool use
I must say, I really like the style that went into the still frame scenes. 1:29 was a good introduction to the crow character, 2:45 has awesome scene panning around the cat and bird scuffle, 4:27 looks...sketchy, and more panning at 5:31 was fantastic!
Yes! Few weeks ago i looked if you had a video specifically about crows, i love those things! The idea came to me when i was hiking, a crow dropped a walnut in front of me. I looked at the crow on the branch, then at the walnut and lightly stomped it so it broke. Always wanted to have the honor to do this. And now you’ve dropped this, im blessed!
Crows will jump a person over something three years ago, And they bring friends along. They can potentially be able to mimic speech like parrots, use anti-bird spikes as building material for nests, wait for cars to run over nuts so they can eat & tool. These birds are excellent in the intelligence build for bird players.
With intelligence, comes unnecessary malevolent behavior!!! Cunning little things
7:36 "This is an item that Crows can't use. But you can take them away from humans in order to make them look foolish."
Love it!
I love that you mention the startup frames on crows takeoff.
First video I watch of your channel, holy damn it's funny as hell and all the video games reference as so good
"Yes, crows and ravens are flaming OP!"
-Every Randland resident.
They're smart they can fly and they're invisible when they're asleep, of course they're op
Y'all really maxed out that tool use with this CGI. The thumbnail alone is something to behold.
Good job.
you KNOW it's a good year when tierzoo uploads
This man takes long to update but when he does the videos are great.
Idea for a video: making a fictional or mythological/folklore animals tierlist. Seeing the Cryptids video this idea came to mind
Tsuchinoko solos.
@@deadlydingus1138 Greek myth has loads of BS creatures.
It would be fun seeing him analyze fictional, mythological and folklorical animals/beasts as if they are real, the Cryptids video was what made me have this idea
@@marceloasensiofilho3833 Yeah, but the tsuchinoko has a venomous bite and alcoholism.
Your editing has seriously improved over time, good job!
this is tierzoo at its best, I love it
Awesome video as always! I would love to see a video highlighting the Caracara raptor build. They have actually specced into intelligence more deeply than most other builds in their guild, and have problem solving abilities up there with Corvids and Parrots. Would love to see what you think about them
