      That's what I was thinking.
      -The damming skill nerfs the drought effect on the water binome (they can turn desert streams into garden spots to give you an idea of how OP that is) and can actively expand the water binome by digging canals.
      -They create ponds deep enough they don't freeze through, giving them liquid water access yearround.
      -Their early warning system is superior to that of the prairie dog.
      -In the water binome, they're nigh invisible.
      -They use a meat shield of other animals that gather around the pond.
      -They store food for the winter underwater to keep it fresh and accessed easily where they're safe.
      -They mate for life and mom and dad share responsibilities raising the kits.
      -If the parents are killed, older siblings can take over parenting duties.
      -Males and females are equally capable (with the slightest advantage going to the female).
      While it has a risky setup, the beaver's strat is among the most broken in the game once established.

    Beavers actually can do good damage with their teeth. In the mid 2000s in Calgary ab Canada they had a problem with beavers making dams in the public park that surrounded the river. To combat this, they chained up pitbulls on the banks to keep the beavers away. Long story short the beavers killed all of the dogs and used their corpses in their dams.

  • @King_Of_Midgard
    @King_Of_Midgard 5 ปีที่แล้ว +188

    Naked Mole Rats have a trait that strongly benefits the eusocial ability that you didn't mention: They're immune to pain, so they readily fight invaders to their warrens to the death, making them extremely hard to predate, and their low requirements for oxygen and food (they can actively slow their metabolic rate when food is scarce) and cancer immunity benefit the fact they have 32 year long lifespans which they regularly survive through. Hell, Naked Mole Rat warrens are sparsely ventilated compared to those of other rodents making them hard to breathe in for predators and could theoretically cause predators spending too much time in the warrens to get sluggish giving the rats a defensive advantage. I definitely think they're B-Tier at worst and their main drawback is their lack of thermoregulation which really limits their potential habitable zones.

    • @mac102938
      @mac102938 5 ปีที่แล้ว +46

    I think you somewhat underrated beavers. While it is true that they are incredibly vulnerable before their damn and lodge are completed, the other weaknesses you mentioned aren't much of an issue. In addition to building a pond, beavers dig long channels into the woods. This means that they never need to be far from the water when securing loot. The final weakness you mentioned is even less of an issue. Beaver lodges have underwater entrances. By the time the pond freezes, they're already under the ice. As a result, the ice only serves to make them completely unassailable throughout the winter. I'm sure that particularly careless beavers occasionally screw up and find themselves locked out, but it's a problem that is very easy to avoid.

But most of all, they have gained one of the most strange yet useful perks in the metagame. The power of chillness. Peaceful or neutral opponents and even some predators are completely unable to fight the Capybara around their presence.
    With all these changes and buffs, the Capybara have definitely bumped up to a high B or even A

  • @k3ldy
    @k3ldy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +140

    I know this detail isn't significant enough to change their place on the tier list but you should've mentioned a cute quirk about Cabybaras and how they are basically natures sofas. Anything from birds, monkeys, other capybaras just take a load off by sitting on them. Even in captivity with other domesticated animals they have no problem with animals such as young goats using them as spring boards. Even smaller, less threatning reptilian builds like turtles can be seen chilling next to them on riverbanks.
    In a game where everything is decided by well you can fight, defend and evade others, its refreshing to see a playstyle that keeps remarkably passive and downright friendly to nonthreat players.
    Tdlr, capybaras are friend shaped and there's blogs dedicated to other animals sitting on them.

    I think the way squirrels used their evolution points to make themself look cute to human players, is also a big part of their success. Especially in city biomes. While the match up might not be good enough for a direct support role, without this trait many human players would probably bully them away from player build structures or out of city biomes completely. It's what human players do..

    Tierzoo says squirrels are better than rat.
    Meanwhile, rats succeeded to stay in my server for hundreds of years while squirrels barely stay at the most northern part with very few players.
    Rats are better in many ways that aren’t mentioned in the video:
    They can eat almost everything
    They are great swimmers for a land based build, which allows them for many things squirrels fail.
    They a great squeezing ability, allowing them to get through passageways most players at their weight class aren’t allowed in.
    They are good fighters for the class, having a good grappling ability.

      @Dodoraptor and other animals, Well rats have a higher consistency because they enter areas which houses alot of loot, nor are they picky about which loot they take EXP from. They are still not top tier because their strategy is to be versatile but lack the power needed to take on higher tier classes. Combos are great but you need to end on something with a big number to attack the opponents.
      Squirrels are better because they are a rogue class, which has a great match up against the Tier 0 Human class, not to mention the ability to reserve food storage increases the likely-hood of survival, during winter months, when food drops decrease. They make better nest, too because of the hibernation process they go through.

    Porcupines and skunks are just hilariously effective for their size. Build classes orders of magnitude bigger steer clear of skunks because their poison/irritant spray is quite caustic up close and the effects on the player who gets sprayed include a disorientation penalty, partial blindness, impedance due to poison damage, mild burn damage, and an additional penalty where other characters avoid your player character. Build classes as large as bears instinctively avoid skunks because of how foul the poison spray is
