    Hey everyone, a few quick notes:
    1: This is not my TeamSeas upload. That one is coming soon though!
    2: Yes, I've already made a video covering snakes. That video, unfortunately, got copyright claimed and I had to remove a portion of it in order to keep the video up. I figured since that video was old anyway, I'd rather just remake it. So hopefully this one is way better, too! It's more than twice as long.

    It’s said that the most OP snake was the highest ranking rattlesnake player, the legendary Rattlesnake Jake. He modified his damage and intimidation to the max by swapping out his rattle with a gatling gun. And instead opting for a hood like cobras, he switched out for a stylish cowboy hat, 10/10 aesthetics

    Interestingly, venomous snake builds developed earlier in the meta than non-venomous builds! This means that many snake mains actually decided that trading out venom was overall a beneficial move. Wild, right? But I'm not going to call them wrong when Colubrid players are almost literally everywhere - clearly they're doing something right!

      To be honest one of the limitations of these tier lists is that they seem primarily concerned with solo gameplay rather than the success of the group as a whole. The list seems inarguable with regards to Colubrids when it comes to that criteria, but considering how damned many of them there are it's obvious that when taking the success of the whole group into account these are far from low tier. Garter snakes (genus Thamnophis) are literally everywhere in north and central America. It's sort of hard to argue that this is an F-Tier build when it comes to overall success.

    I feel brief credit is due to the Eastern Indigo snake, which is somewhat like a Kingsnake build, but much larger: they actually eat _Rattlesnakes._ when you can actually safely feast one not just a high tier build, but a high tier build with normally lethal venom, you’re probably a pretty solid build
    Also, they actually party up with the gopher tortoise during winter months in burrows, keeping one another warm

      As much as I love the Indigo, I doubt it could be ranked as high as the Kingsnake build. Everyone I know that used to be an Indigo main switched over to something else due to their reliance on and the decrease of Gopher Tortoise mains.
      Kingsnakes also target and eat rattlesnakes, but the Indigo does deserve some credit for being able to take on the largest rattlesnake in the game, the Eastern Diamondback.

    Fun fact: it's well known that snakes have to shed their skin, but their lack of limbs makes it incredibly difficult for them to do so. As a result, they have a period of time leading into a molt where they're incredibly itchy and will roll around on rocks or fallen logs to scratch themselves. I've encountered cottonmouths doing this while walking on nature trails, and it's honestly very funny.
    I really cannot overstate how much I don't recommend doing this and how bad of an idea it is, but they'll happily accept scratches from, say, a particularly long stick you found, and they'll lean into it because it feels nice. I, uh, wasn't a very smart kid when it came to wild animals.

    If you aren’t a competitive player and just want a fun, simple build with a lot of customization options, Ball Python with a human teammate is actually pretty great. The human’s intelligence stat often unlocks new skins and designs for their teammates, and it just so happens that the devs gave Ball Pythons a RIDICULOUS amount of customization options in terms of color and pattern. However, the ball python intelligence stat isn’t high enough to unlock new skins on its own (other than random loot boxes) so you do need a human player to help you out with it.

    I remember hearing that spitting cobras evolved multiple times independently. And, the timing corresponds to human expansion. Each time humans moved to a new region, the spitting venom adaptation evolved. Considering that the 2 meter range and blinding venom allow it to hit human eyes (average human height between 1.5 - 2 meters), it's safe to assume this adaptation specifically evolved to deal with us.

    For the kingsnake, its worth mentioning that theyve spent some evolution points in specing into the trait "mimic" to boost their intimidate chance. Specifically, they use a coloring which mimics that of the coral snake, a venomous and much more dangerous snake, to attempt to deter/intimidate would be predators. This can work to fool predator builds with lower intelligence stats, and even human mains have had to use their memory enhancing special move "Rhyme" alongside the moves "Teach" and "Learn" to come up with a rhythmic word pattern that helps them memorize which snake to avoid and which is harmless: "Red touching black, friend of Jack. Red touching yellow, kill a fellow". However, since venomous snakes like the coral snake struggle to use their powerful venom defensively, especially against avian predators, this isn't very effective, as an eagle or hawk, even if they don't notice the difference, may not be deterred from attacking what they believe to be a coral snake anyways.
    The Mexican Milk Snake also utilizes this mimicry strategy with a similar pattern to the kingsnake but with whiter patches where the kingsnake has yellow, to attempt to fool predator mains into believing they are the dangerous and venomous coralsnake.

Ricky Mack photographs taipans from less than 2 feet away... black mumbas can strike up to 2/3rds of their body length in distance.. if he tried that with a mamba he’d be smoked..

Quite a few other snakes use the ability without the specialized gear, moving leaves and stuff in the underbrush to act as a distraction - since the snake's weak point is in the same spot as its weapons, this acts as both a defensive move AND a feint for an offensive strike.
