Which of these other animals could I take in a fight? 

NL is forgetting that since he ranked the lobster first all subsequent units gained a +2 +2 buff right out the gate

the thought of animals having the discussion of "could I take a human in a fight" is extremely humorous

I'm gonna give him major +2 for not putting anything in "I'd be too scared to fight." My man will face that elephant zero fear. He goes in. Bushido.

"which of these animals can name more Roman emperors than me"

Luna in kindergarten saying her dad can take on a trex

NL can run from a panda bear in this hypothetical battle warehouse but the walrus has him dead to rights i guess

NL creating a straw man that is literally an eagle is peak comedy

"One good strike to the wolf temple" is not only the funniest line from this, but also the premise of an animated film oneday.

Visualizing NL saying he'd FOLD the squid like it was some kind of dollar bill made me LOL

the way NL talks about the ones that have no chance against him makes me laugh every time

Can't wait to play my first game of wolf human deer.

Every time NL gives you a detailed breakdown of how he would beat the animal, you know it's cap.

Northernlion on squids: "I think I could fold it."

"Now that the adults are here...... let's talk about what animals I would beat up." You just don't hear this level of commentary anywhere else.

He's so unhinged when he does these lmao, 10/10 content

The eagles talking about how they'd kill a human had me giggling silly style

It's been 2 minutes and Enelle is already gaslighting the entirety of his chat while comparing a zebra to a rhino. My streamer.

This is secretly just the "what does this animal weigh" tier list.

I'm gonna say it. 90% of NLs takes were sane takes. Chat is delusional on almost all counts just to be contrarian.

Does he know there's like a 9 foot length difference between a komodo dragon and a gila monster?

"I don't see how I could generate the Newtons required to end his life" is such a funny sentence, holy shit.

with more descriptive tiering, his panda take is less unreasonable

He needs to do one of these videos as Old NL with his psychotic "I have 50:50 odds against a bear" takes.

the most ambitious thumbnail i've ever seen

other than tierzoo, northernlion is probably the only person i would want to watch do this tier list

This is JUST like super auto pets, except we don’t get to see some of his insane takes get proven wrong because that’d mean him getting mauled or disemboweled.

Imagining the eagle tearing at NL’s precious, unprotected, and very bald head is giving me DOUBT

I can't believe he did another sometimes this man really hits the spot perfectly

I love the idea of "Wolf NL Deer" as the new rock paper scissors

Right out the gate "I kinda see a Zebra as if it's a weaker rhino" these are the takes that im here for

"is it a rhino or a hippo?" Either way, it's a RIPPO

"Komodo Dragon... or Gila Monster" Bless the egg for thinking those are remotely the same thing

“The deer is spec’d for defense” made me laugh way harder that it should have.

I almost spit out my drink when he said he would "fold" the squid 😂

The story about the guy killing a lepard by riping it´s toungue out sounds like an old cartoon

tier lists are the perfect type of NL content, i dont care about video games at all anymore but still like to hear his banter on random topics, so this shits perfect

Everyone's forgetting that NL got that Dawg in him

I love how Ryan, in both, says "Komodo Dragon or Gila Monster" as if they are even remotely close. You'd die to a Komodo, but you'd obliterate a Gila. -(Assuming you don't get poisoned from the venom, or actually poison in the case of the Gila since its saliva is poisonous not injected like venom)- Komodos are huge but Gilas are pretty small you can easily squeeze one to death if forced to.

Chat putting too much stock in a single wolf. They kill deer by running them to death, not wolfjujitsu.

13:26 is just the best rant ever 😂

"I'd rip you in half like a chicken tender" Has me dead in Panera Bread

ah yes, the elephant, aka the ultimate dear

I died laughing when he talked about inviting friends over to watch him destroy a lobster in a fight

I think this tier list would be more interesting if there were rocks & sticks of various sizes around the arena. I'm not saying he'd be able to fashion a weapon or anything, but it would make it possible to harm some of the animals that he couldn't really damage otherwise, and projectiles could also be useful in some matchups.

You guys saying a person couldn’t kill a bald eagle are smoking a fat one

i love how every time he’s unsure of a matchup he just looks up who would win in a fight human vs animal

NL being scared to fight a gorilla because one hijacked a helicopter in Planet of the Apes is hilarious

Elephant, this is like the ultimate deer

We gotta get @tierzoo on this

I saw a lot of comments saying the wolf take is madness. No. His take was based AF. I absolutely agree his chances in a fight to the death are better against a wolf than a deer. If NL had any kind of weapon, tool, or other advantage. This would not be the case. But he would have a better chance of inficting serious blunt force trauma against a wolf than a deer. That being said. Wolf should be on the same tier as deer.

NL rping as an Eagle at 13:40 is amazing lmao

Eagle bit was incredible. These videos make me realize I’m probably insane cause I agree with NL and literally no one else does lol

I was thinking about it and I guess NL is right about the eagle. Their prey is nowhere near our size. I think it has a chance at causing lethal damage but probably loses to a strong human in most cases.

This is my favorite NL series so far to be honest

The Eagle bit had me crying😂

"Elephant? This is like the ultimate deer" 💀

I love how NL thinks he could easily kill a starfish. Sure, you could crush it with your foot, but that's literally the only way he could beat it, cause tearing it apart will literally only turn one starfish into 6, depending on how many pieces you tried to tear it into.

I love that in the last video he says he would draw with the panda but then when he reads an article saying the wolf would do the EXACT SAME STRATEGY he just goes "nah they cant do that its a cage match" this man is insane i love him

Fully optimized animal ranking; sort by weight then tweak by who's punching above or below their weight.

Much like react court this content is just top tier. EDIT: Idk about the eagle. when diving for prey they go as fast as 200mph, you get hit with that, get dazed and she'll just fly away again. Death by a thousand cuts

People who think you can kill a deer with your bare hands when it has an intention to kill you are out of their mind, even in nature no single lone wolf attacks a lone deer. They attack in groups, and kill the weakest ones. It takes a couple of wolfs to kill a healthy deer. How do you even imagine killing a deer with your bare hands when naked in an arena? Have you seen their thick, muscular necks? They're walking muscles, and their single kick can snap your bones. If tools are permitted then you could kill most of the animals, but with bare hands it's pretty much impossible. I don't know, maybe damage the brain through the eyes or something, but it's hard to imagine tbh.

NL forgetting that llamas and deer have the skinniest legs baffles me

"The crab cannot stop me." These videos are amazing for quote mining.

NL is forgetting he can choke out the animals or hammerfist an organ, a human can deliver enough force in a bite to break small bones/appendages, we have powerful strikes like say i pin a llama to his side with a tackle, wrestle him down, and hammerfist his internal organs? how would it fight back? A wolf, kicks to keep him back, wrestle when he tries to go in, choke him out and maybe spare doge.

all other things being equal the deciding factor is pretty easy, body mass. but if we get detailed about it there's so many open questions about how this supposed fight is setup that the whole thing is pointless.

I think a fair way of thinking about the underwater matchups is having them be in 4 feet or slightly deeper water with the exception of the massive ones like (killer) whales. Also, this tier list makes me think about how much of a difference having just a pointy stick would make.

"Smart Eagle Rant" was so good. I argue it is a 50/50, but had me laughing too hard to care.

Dude his rage energy is off the charts in this video

The hypothetical wolf fight movie had me dying!!

here is the thing, when a dog or wolf lunges at you to bite you kick it with everything you have right in the jaw. you will easily break its jaw and the battle is over

People are vastly overestimating wolves. Not that they are not scary, but what makes them great preditors is their pack. By themselves, they are not nearly as dangerous. The placement here seems perfect.

completely unhinged, I love it

Fold a squid hahaha

I find it very funny he doesn't have ferret in paint the walls with it. Having handled them before, you can just grab them. They have no offense. Their only defense is being floppy. They weigh a pound. If you stop paying attention long enough they may bite your toe. But its like the same thing as punching an elephant. It would look down and wonder what you're doing

The sequel I didnt expect or deserve. Based

I love that if the eagle used NLs panda logic of playing keep away and then landing a killing blow when their opponents guard is down, it would beat him everytime.

NL is almost just as delusional as chat. when they try and gaslight him into thinking a fight with a starfish might be close

13:23 This is one of the best bits I've ever heard

This made me laugh the snot out of me.

bro has never heard of choking

the deer/wolf talk had me laid out

"An elephant? This is like the ultimate deer", oh my sides.

I think NL isn’t being consistent with “I lose but get a few hits in” and “I win but get a few hits in”. An iguana would def get a few hits in, but for sure lose. Unlike the other animals in the “I paint the walls with their blood” category

I want to see him do the same list but he has a spear

Those questioning his rankings have clearly never experienced one of NLs devastating knee strikes to the temple or windpipe

Maybe Ive been gaslit, but I genuinely agree with pretty much everything that NL says...

Sap pet tier list next?

NL doubling down on Roe being a female deer is crazy

I think cheetahs are quite possibly the only big cat that belongs anywhere above the torn-to-shreds tier.

The Wolf vs human article is nuts. Sure, unaware and unready, Wolf takes human. Like I could take Mike Tyson if I have wolverine claws and he’s asleep. But in reality, if you’re a human and there’s a wolf hunting you and you get tired before arming yourself? You weren’t even trying bro. Accurate tier list, with the sole exception of hippo, way too scared to fight those overgrown monsters.

You should do it again, but now in the fights you have a rock (perfect sized rock)

I feel like NL underestimates a Maccaw, they can pierce skin

Trick question, zebras would make incapable mounts, therefore if you jumped on a zebras back and used your weight properly, you could snap it's legs. Dispatching it from there would be child's play. 🧐

NL clearly does not know how soft the under belly of his "dear" variant category is. He is only thinking about near and neck. Under belly of these animals are all quite vulnerable.

"You can basically rip a bird in half with your hands" Yeah, you literally can. This is how Grouse are cleaned. You grab their wings, pin them to the ground with your foot, and rip their spines out.

House cats in DnD 2E- torn to shreds House cats in dwarf fortress- catsplosion

Lol at egg calling a green basilisk and iguana 😂😂😂

I just invented a new game called northernlion, wolf, deer. Its just rock paper scissors, but you do the rock for northernlion, the trekky "live long and prosper" for wolf and the metal horns for deer.

if you can meaningfully reach the animal's eyeball you have a chance, it's a disgusting human only tactics but it helps

8:55 this might be the greatest quote of all time
