Patterrz Reacts to the Insect Tier List 

Regarding Moths, the reason that they seem so suicidal is actually because of human interference. They instinctively use light sources as navigation sources, typically in crepuscular times (Dawn and Dusk), when the sun is not moving as much. However, they can't tell the difference between the sun and a lamppost or fire, so they just circle around those light sources because they are confused by them.

I like how humans shit on most bug builds purely because of the massive size difference and the fact that they can wield many insect killing things, makes being a human very fun

While you are correct that ants, bees and wasps are picked due to their high popularity, it's also what's making them so strong. Since they gain the passive ability "Colonizing", they gain a multiplier to their attack, intelligence and speed when near a team group, catering to new players, gaining more popularity and therefore increasing the efficiency and power of this types of insects. This however brings the major drawback of the passive status "Loneliness", which causes the insects speed, attack, defense, and intelligence to be halved and locks all abilities and attacks when separated from a team group. This causes a easy to learn insect for new players, but causes other insects to be pushed out of the meta, causing the "Extinction" state, permanently deleting all data on that insect, making the meta more and more skewered to the favor of ants, bees and wasps.

Tier zoo is so cool, he makes documentaries more intresting

Fun fact, mosquitoes are true flies meaning they are on the list with the other flies. Also did you know that if you drop a beetle from a ten story building it won’t get injured.

Fun fact! the mantis actually dont commonly eat their mates when breeding! that only happens under extreme stress such as a human recording or viewing them in the act

20:06 Fun Fact: Tranpinch and his evo line are actually based on antlion larva and adult antlions

"I think that beetles are the most aesthetically pleasing bugs as well." Butterflies: Am I a joke to you?

You should watch the ant war series by kurzgesagt. It’s very interesting and will change your entire view on them. They are definitely one of the most interesting and intelligent species.

If he payed attention he would have seen that mosquitos are true flys

I love the way you react to these like actual video game meta and I wish you'd do more

Pat, you gotta watch his videos about attacking types and elemental powers in nature, you learn tons of crazy facts, like beetles that shoot fire and fish that snipe insects!

Us Mantis mains may not be top tear, but the thrill of being able to take down bird players is a reward in it of itself.

For what it's worth, female mantis eating the male during or after mating is not nearly as common as some people think. Mantis are cannibalistic in general, males just tend to be smaller than females and if the female rejects or does not recognize his advances, she's liable to just eat him the same way he would if he had the opportunity and was not trying to mate. If they actually do mate then he has a good chance of surviving. Early studies are mantis breeding were flawed because the researchers did not give captive mantises the opportunities for courtship and escape that they have in the wild.

Moths are adorable.

The most ridiculous solo build here has to be the Beetles but damn insect colonies are just built different, they go for quantity over quality

0:52 Apparently the reason why a female mantis eats a male mantis during the mating process is because it provides them with the nutrients it needs for her and her offspring to survive. Especially in the case were the female has not had a sufficient meal but not all pray mantises eat their mates.

I can't believe you were right on the money with the Trapinch guess, because that group, specifically the antlion, is the Flygon line's basis.

tier zoo actually said that most insects are actually pretty high tier. they might be small but they are one of the few classes that actually work against humans like bees and wasps. they are also all pretty good for gameplay as they dont really have many weakneses

I heard something about the flys brain sees less frames per second in life than humans, so everything moves slower for them. No wonder they are so hard to hit

I love tier zoo. He is such an amazing creator.

3:46 To answer your question, those are not irises, they're pseudo pupils. They're an optical illusion caused by looking directly down the lenses in a compound eye that are closest to you. It is pretty interesting in that it gives the impression that the animal is staring right back at you. 🐛🦋🐜🐝🪲🐞🦗🪳🦟🪰

I love how he made the Trapinch/Vibrava comparison for the insect they’re based on

Mosquitos are a part of the fly faction. One was shown attacking a flamingo.

I love watching Tier Zoo reactions, and the reactor just adopts the lingo from the videos.

When I first watched tierzoo I thought he was talking about a real game

I'm back to roast him so the "bug" in the stick bug is actually an attempt to further the insect's camoflouage

Since I know someone's going to be confused regarding bug terminology, I wanted to clarify some things. "Bug" and "Insect" do not mean the same thing. An insect is a type of bug. Bugs can include insects, arachnids, etc. Insects and arachnids are otherwise not related. Likewise, "Arachnid" and "Spider" are not the same thing. All spiders are arachnids, but not all arachnids are spiders. Scorpions are also an example of arachnids. Also, for those questioning what the deal is with hornets being absent, they weren't. Hornets are a type of wasp.

Ants are like: There is only war.

Remember eusocial animals, wolves, lions and humans have pact tactics as a hidden ability so they can very be overpowered, in main and side story quests.

I love TierZoo vids, they are super fun!

Mosquitos count as flies, so ðey are A-Tier.

fun facts about the praying mantises, they don't do that in the wild, they will only eat the head of their partner in stressful situations like when they're being watched

That beetle legit said “wake up to reality”

Mospitoes are a type of fly. He just saw one bute a flamingo. They are indeed on the list.

8:38 excuse you?! Ugly? Moths as a whole are some of the most colorful and beautiful moths out there! Luna, Atlas, Cecropia to say the least and many more !

It's important to note that bees are only really struggling in places they aren't native to.

Bro I been watching tier zoo for so long glad to see him here

I love that patrezz actually elaborates! I love his reaction!

i have no clue if patterz is doing this as a character or something but its hilarious to me how he takes literally everything at face value

Please more Tier Zoo reactions. I love his channel

One day my sister and I was playing badminton and I accidentally hit a blue dragonfly and then after that we tried to nurse it back to it’s full health, but then one day it just disappeared and we still don’t know if it died or not, I also forget what we named it too.

The animal that caught the frog is called toe-biters (other names include: giant water bugs, Indian toe-biters, electric-light bugs, alligator ticks, or alligator fleas) is a Belostomatidae, and yes it has a very strong bite and a toxin that can kill certain animals, even in humans its bite is considered one of the most painful in the world, it is so painful that many people are paralyzed by the pain! This insect is very common in South America.

The dragonfly downplay by this man when we get to the lacewings (or just comparing them to flies) is insane, like brooooooo

Always excited to see some tier zoo

TierZoo is definitely a channel I would like to see more reactions from.

Fun fact mosquitoes are flys just not called a fly

33:30 I'm a bee main and they deserve s tier. Not only can they fly and have the eusociality perk but they are also a huge support member. Not only to plants but to the most game breaking build in the game being humans.

Mosquitoes are true flies. Also Japanese honey bees are metal as heck. They mob wasps 20 times their size and vibrate to cook the wasp alive.

18:02 The developers make the enviroment and world and natural events and so. It's the players who custom tailor their living beings into whatever they want. And that's how species are made. Each species is a faction and each of them were made by players experimenting and evolving

Fun fact 23:36 a dragonfly's brain can apparently predict its prey's movements (before they happen) with a 95% precision rate

I would like to see you react to more tierzoo.

God i love your review gamifiying it even more 😂

Flies are sprinters, Butterflies are marathon fliers, migrating thousands of miles every year like the birds

As an audio listener, these longer videos, are fantastic. Wish the original video was longer.

i love tier zoo, such sick videos

Bees are not going extinct, it's just a specific species that is struggeling, and even that has calmed down alot.

I don't think ive ever been this early without notifs on lol

Mosquitoes are true flies

I am surprised fleas did not get a mention in the tier list. The flea build has an insanely high defense stat that not even a human build can break it with the Squeeze attack, I tried it myself, and my father even tried equipping a hammer for extra damage for invading players in my family's old base before I started playing, but the hammer proved ineffective against the fleas' strong armor. Also I got really bad rng recently and got afflicted by a cold debuff right after the Christmas event, and even though I have consumed several stacks of Hot Tea for healing, its effect persists still now. It must not have many layers left, I have quests to do for my guild in 3 days to level up my Chemistry skill so I can advance to the higher level daily quests with better rewards, at least once I find quest givers willing to hire me. Such bad rng to get the cold debuff just as the new expansion begins, I hate this game sometimes.

What Patterrz should do is react to the other tierzoo lists then formulate a Pokémon team with what he thinks would be an optimized team as like a nuzlock! XD

Love that channel!

that music after the overwatch reference brought me back to my childhood

Im suprised to ser patz reacting to tierzoo videos Hope more of these will come Edit: pattz there are cute moth speciess

If anyone has read Jungle Juice on webtoon (I know I’m weird laugh it up) you know that insects are strong as heck

Anyone else like "isn't nature beautiful" when the flying fish gets grabbed out of the sky

I would like to report a bug: when i play as my personal favourite pigeon build i try to enter humans hideaways via these holes around wooden frames but there is some kind of invisible wall stopping me i think the devs mucked up the wooden frame hit box to cover the middle hole thats supposed to be an entrance Someone needs to fix this.

Ant is so broken, not only they great architect, but they also have Fungus farm and Aphids as cattle, some even take larva/egg from other ant colony (they raid) to make them a slave

MORE TierZoo Moreee!!!!

Ant lions are the inspiration behind trapinch

He has indeed made a spider tier list.

16:08 I didn’t know the grasshopper build had the teleportation trait!

MOAR TIERZOO STUFF! *MOAR!!!* (Also, please look up pics of fluffy moths, some of them are really cute)

In primary school we once found a silverfish in our milk. No one drank after that XD

THE EYEWITNESS MUSIC MY NOSTALGIA

patterrz my beloved

Moths are way cuter than butterflies. All the beauty is in their soft, fluffy features, round heads a big black eyes.

6:04 That was more like an encyclopedia.

Mosquitos were in a group with flies.

God i adore dung defender

A thing to know about any living being on Earth is that they fill a function. Even if something seems "weak" or "useless" did manage to survive to present day.

I'm pretty sure mosquitoes are true flies

I love seeing content creators' reaction to TierZoo

I love the idea of God and the angels being a bunch of game developers.

18:00 if I can enjoy picking flax in runescape for 5 hours, then they can enjoy farming xp. Don't yuck a yum, man.

21:31 A few species of moths also have this... trait. And of course they last about as long as you would expect.

35:28 it's almost like the gameplan is centered around the whole playerbase and is dependent on it.

Waiting for the next tier zoo to drop

tierzoo is amazing

I like to think that people watch these kind of videos, to find the best animal to be reincarnated in

i like how he's talking like that its a game fr tho it is a game

0:27 Well this would be equivalent of jumping onto a raid boss, getting hit and one shooting with a counter attack before dying.

The hive mind is what makes you top tier, got it.

Woooooo Tier Zoo

Mosquitoes were in the fly section

Their is actually an ant species, the slaver ant, that enslaves other ant species by taking their larves and messing with their pheromones

i used to watch your stuff heavy when i was younger bro saw your name as u was scrolling

"..he also fell off the map, so that's not a POTG to be honest" Tell me you don't play OW without telling me you don't play OW.

I love tierzoo, please react to him more

I have a ton of ant lion pits in my pasture in Texas they are so cool to put ants in them and watch the magic
