I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you're giving Goblins the S tier. All three versions of Krenko really give them the power/coolness boost they need.
There it is
I fucking love goblins!
@@NitpickingNerds I had to edit this one because it only referenced the goblins this time. The one time I thought it was safe I was called out
Putting merfolk in C when angels are in B feels wrong imo. Merfolk got so much support recently with Ixalan and indirectly with some cards in the Mutant Menace Fallout deck.
Like you got Ripples of Potential which can phase out most of your creatures if someone uses a board wipe.
Bro just put my favourite tribe in Poop tier, rise up insect gamers!
Insect truly is the most oppressed tribe
They got some support too with the new comander from the clue set. Have been having fun with it
I want to make a deck that partners Vrestin, Menoptra Leader with Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest. It wouldn't be legal and would be something I'd have to get some rule 0 approval for... but it'd be fun to build Abzan Insect Tribal around them.
I've been trying to make an insect deck for 10 years now. I love them, they're still ass.
Lol
Dragons are just better dinosaurs (both flavor wise and card quality). They have all the same drawbacks as dinos but have way more support and a lot of good commanders. I would say they belong in S-Tier.
Yeah, not having dragons in S tier is weird. Dinos over dragons? Why am I subscribed lol
There are also load of singularly good, Board-warping dragons that are impactful beyond tribal synergies. Whereas there are fuck all Dinos like that. Like, new Etali and Zacama are it.
my guess is there is a tad bit of a personal bias against them lol
My argument for changelings being actually cool is that you can build it in so many different ways compared to slivers/dragons etc where you see the same 15 creatures/payoffs in every deck
Plus, exactly the opposite of "non creative", S+ tier
I guarantee my dragon deck not only plays differently but looks different from whatever you are describing.
I've won many games off of Mirror Entity, always seemed like a fun card to me...
@gemkid85 what commander do you use for it?
@trehenry413 I use Ur-Dragon. It's based around the dungeon/initiative mechanic. Most of the cards aren't even lesser known staples in the format, lol.
As a horror player I completely agree, there are like 300 horrors in total and choosing the best of them is the hardest part of the deckbuilding process
Captain N'ghathrod decks rise up
no freacking way its poop tier. @@evaman0182
Please do elementals
Yeah pretty trash Tribe... From the 300 horrors there are like 10 good ones haha
@@SquareTalesit isn't his fault though
should have been a tierlist based on rizz. Goblins would be S- tier. not up for debate
Spice 8 Rack would agree!
Tier list for rizz... write that down!
While I do agree with putting Dragons in A-tier, putting Merfolk in C-Tier triggers me. Merfolk will stomp just about any other tribe.
Personally I think in a world full of reality destroying monsters and fauna that could destroy cities, being a humble human fighting back against the horror is pretty cool. Not to mention being a pretty strong type after all the support over the last couple years.
I’ll give Humans their due props. Champion of Lambholt is one of my all-time favorite cards for essentially reading: While Champion of Lambholt remains on the field, mock the weeping of would-be chump-blockers, and put a +1/+1 counter on Champion of Lambholt for every saltiness-induced slur hurled his way. ;)
His flavor-text of course reads, “Now where did I leave my Boots?”
Samurai are S tier for aesthetic, but Poop tier for mechanics.
As a fairy tribal lover I do know sometimes they don't appear synergistic but in wilds of eldraine they made a nice dimension out of them. The tricksy flash play on opponents turn is such a vibe. Lots of new flash fairy support too from the adventures. Cunning Conqueror is also playing extremely well at multiple power levels.
I've often heard faeries be described as the Dimir equivalent of merfolk, where they care more about draw-go interaction and control than snowballing value but they're both basically evasive and tricksy little blue guys at the end of the day. Another neat thing is that faeries and rogues have a lot of overlap and one can easily build a deck with support from both tribes.
Hydras are insane! Zaxara X spell tribal with all of the Hydras is very strong. Ozolith, Doubling Season, Clown Car!
I’m surprised that Elementals didn’t make the list! Definitely at least an A tier type imo, Omnath is cool
Top six are humans, zombies, dragons, goblin, slivers and merfolk. Runners up elves, vampires, eldrazi and dinosaur
actual merfolk slander
Humans are S+ tier. Deepest tribe and most possible playstyles imo
Yeah, I think their rankings are based on just 'what they enjoy' more than actual power level. Humans at this point are actually stronger than Elves IMO, and half the time people forget all the options available in Human Tribals and how bonkers AF the potential commanders for it are.
I have a Kenrith human tribal that gets immediate groans from my regular pod when I pull it out... it's just filthy AF.
@@user-tp9bn8lp6t Alas, Elves got Voja now, and I feel like a pure elfball Voja deck is pretty nuts. Outside of that though I do agree Humans have a lot of standalone strong creatures with the type stapled on them. Most of which are stax, which is huge. It's very close between the two though in my opinion.
Bruh they don't know wtf they're talking about, Humans are dope ASF. their synergy & their mechanics. I play Humans, Elves & Spiders working on others atm but the fact that they put Humans so low just shows how much they don't know & I've been playing magic since 1992.
Vampires I think should be S-tier as well. Stupid amounts of support these days.
@@Ankhakaru It's more about the flavor. They just don't care for the flavor of humans, it's boring to them, it's simply their personal tastes and opinion. They said humans are powerful, they are obviously very powerful since it's the most printed creature type by a country mile, no one will argue Humans are weak. So there really is no need to get on a high horse and gate keep.
The best way to avoid infinite combos in zombie decks is just to have no free sac outlet.
I'd love to see some tribes that aren't elves or goblins get some support. Beasts, Birds, Squirrels and Giants could all use some love.
Literall all of them have at least 1 decent commander
@@Shimatzu95 doesn't mean they dont deserve more support though. Wraiths have a good commander but there are only 12 Wraiths total in all of Magic, definitely could use more support too.
Beasts are being split up per wizards
@@Shimatzu95 Archers have a decent commander, shame about the rest of the tribe...
@@85inexact what do you want me to say? I'm not a fan of "choose a tribe" payoffs as they will aleays be more expensive. If anything we need more party groupings rather than seperateing species like with rats and mice.
Me and all my homies pray for a skeleton tribal precon
One day
All of my decks got into poop tier, you made my dog cry and now you´re uninvited to his birthday... Great video though
Wurms is truly an oppressed creature type. God, they're my favorite though. ❤
At least they got a commander!
As a player who likes faires , i think alot of people mistake faires versatility and utility for being unfocused cause that's the point their power lies in being hard to read only a good fairy deck pilot understand the sheer flexibility they present to adapt and deal with complex and tough boardstates
I think Werewolves could be cool, if they made their transformations based around them taking damage or not. Human side needs to take damage and survive, while the werewolf side needs to take damage to stay warged out!
I think this would create a clear, aggressive play style.
Walls are quite literally the most epic creature type created.
Horrors may have very few commanders to choose from, but oh boy they can be annoyingly powerful.
Fun video, really enjoyed it and hearing your takes on types. One suggestion: could you add text labels? Sometimes i have no idea what some of the pics represent, esp after a dozen have been added to the board.
"Angels are not historically good..." You just made Serra Angel very sad. More than when Baneslayer Angel came around.
Honestly there have been quite a few decent lower cost angels beteeen kaldheim, new capena and for some reason now mkm.
Spiders are my favourite creature type, but even I'm here like huh? How'd they do so well?
Cant rly agree with dragons in A and dinos in S. Dinos are just dragons without wings.
Because prehistoric reptiles = dinosaurs in Magic, there are a couple flying dinosaurs.
Still waiting for the day when they will errata bird and put them in the dinosaur tribe though.
Ok fine I’ll take the bait. I adore hydras. Do you have 50 mana hanging around? Hydra broodmaster just spawned 20 20/20s. Ram through + a trampling hero’s bane has once landed me 12 and a half million damage. Optimal? Idk, it wins when it works. Fun? You better believe it!
Dragons are the top S-tier, amazingly fun to play. I love how they are in every color, and I have no issue losing to them.
The main problem is that too many of their commanders are oppressively strong so they dont realy fit into low-mid power games.
@@Shimatzu95I agree, either you stop them early or they just destroy within 1 or 2 turns
I actually play a variant of Insect tribal- it's actually Bee tribal. sadly I had to allow wasps and hornets in the deck as well to fill out the commander deck. I'd say it's a B tier deck
A shame that "Beast" wasnt on the tierlist but I suppose they are pretty jank. Good video
You never have been „Notorious Throng“ed to see the complete beauty of deadl faeries 🧚
As a hardcore Sliver player, I have to say, I do wish we got Slivers that did a little more than just combat buffs and the few mana dorks. There's some very cool effects besides that (specifically non-combat related ones like Root Sliver, Necrotic Sliver, Harmonic Sliver, etc.), and I wish more of a focus was put onto those types of Slivers that give out non-combat related abilities (I'm including evasion and everything else that could fall under that umbrella as a combat related ability).
Where are Viashinos? They are my favourite tribe 😭
Part 2?
Man i remember as a kid in 98' loving the art on Viashino cards.
This was super enjoyable. I love that you guys threw in the "cool factor"/personal preference. This was super fun to watch. ❤
Treefolk would be a good one to include!
Spiders in B is higher than I expected so not mad. My first made deck is spider tribal cuz I love spiders and hate flyers 🫡
Cpt n'gathrod was a strong precon strait out of the box when it came out menace mill and steal your stuff
Cats under Arahbo are actually really strong as a Voltron Hybrid with a lot of Lifegain, go wide and board control sub strategies.
A tribal tier list with no ninjas? You bring shame to your ancestors.
I mean, seriously, you ranked _Walls_ of all things, but not ninjas?! wtf
Not sure why, but I feel that the midfield ad will come in between the ranking of menfolk and myr
I think we need more grouping of types mechanics like party! There’s one coming up in thunder junction but it involves assassins and such so it’s also gonna be heavy black I’m assuming 😢
I don't even have to watch the video to know that Squirrels are the top of S tier.
Yep, definitely…
@NitpickingNerds S is for Squirrel after all.
I desperately need them to print more love for my "Krakens, Leviathans, Octopuses and Serpents" tribal! There's only like 4 cards that actually support them.
Alright I’m going to try this again. Moxfield ad at 23:35
horrors probably gonna get some love in duskmourne
Walls certainly aren’t better than than dragons, but there’s nothing quite like playing an arcades deck at a table where no one’s playing interaction. Playing what amounts to about 2 three-mana 8/8’s and 3 two-mana 4/4’s a turn and continuously having a hand full of cards to do it again is a high like no other.
Youre the reason everyone always underestimates my twins werewolves!! Everyone always goes in thinking they arent good and then he kills everyone on turn 5 😭
I agree with Sidar being a much more fair eminence. So much so that I posted that on Reddit and learned real quick that players absolutely hate eminence at ANY level and feel that it’s a severely broken effect that should not be used! I took so much flack for my post, it was nuts!!
Anime Krenko looks like he came right out of the pages of the Berserk manga...
where would you put clerics
Everyone always forgets clerics even though they have a ton of tribal support. Disrespectful. Solid A or B tier depending on the day.
I love my werewolves, but i Need/want more of them maybe with a change to day/night or SOMETHING
Some you ranked them by how strong they are, some others by how cool they are...ok 😂
Humans and merfolks should not have been so low
Putting elves in S and moist elves in C is crazy to me.
"moist elves" is the worst phrase i've ever heard and now it's stuck in my head
Saw that moxfield ad coming for a mile this time 😂
HOW
Yo! Hail Hydras!! Throw a few untappers into a Lucea deck and all of a sudden you're tripling or quadrupling your hydra or x-spells. Throw Doppelgang into the mix and it gets mad!
I love the party mechanic! But sadly I don’t play black so there’s not a good deck I can make of it at the moment unless I just do good stuff of each creature type lol
I'm always tempted to call this 'The eminence scale' since getting a good eminence commander for that type usually means they're gonna be A or S tier.
Knights didn't do so hot though, and Giants aren't even on here :p
@@NitpickingNerds While I wouldn't put Knights in the level of Dragons or Vampires, I think you're really under-valuing Sidar: Just because of Sidar eminence ability they're at the top of 'Humans with jobs' even above Wizards and most people who have been on the wrong side of a really well put together Sidar deck that isn't put down immediately would likely agree.
Besides I just think Eminence as an ability no matter how weak is overpowered: its an anthem that you don't pay for or have to do anything to get and it's extremely resistant to removal: it's almost like playing a companion (An equally busted mechanic) basically going 'Yep you guys go ahead and play with 100 cards, I'm playing with 101 cards and get that extra card to be one of the best and I don't even have to draw or tutor for it'
Just fundamentally unfair.
I have Sidar. I never play Cavalry Charge because playing knights sucks. The turns suck. The power is there, they are strong enough. But some of them make bats, some make soldiers, some make humans, they just aren't synergistic enough and the cards are disparate enough in interaction that you spend so much longer durdling every turn to line up your interactions.
This list hurts my soul. I can respect people's opinions, but that Merfolk placement gets me in the feels lol.
Me and my sliver deck listening to this
“yesss leave me alone for 2 turns, I dare you” *laughs manically”
My group kills me first immediately any time I play my slivers or they loose
Wizards top of C?! Are you kidding me?! Get those above dinosaurs, whatever you do!
I've played against a really nasty hydra deck - he had all the mana doubling and tripling enchantments and stuff to ramp them into play and then he started dropping 30 mana X spells - felt *really* good to counterspell lol but he did get pretty overwhelming and take the game
Humans in D tier!! Wow lol humans are pretty good. At least B, prob A!
Dude, zombies over wizards…. This is insanity
My only (and favorite) tribal deck is Monk tribal with The Archimandrite as my commander, and it’s not very good but it’s super fun.
I think Halflings are a cool tribe. I like how tied to food they are, and despite there not being very many Halflings the tribe is pretty strong and has a unique identity.
Changeling Tribal is a lot better if you're going with Changeling Amass Army Tribal, so I would rank Changelings a bit higher because of that.
some other creature types I think deserve a mention for one reason or another would be Bear, Scarecrow, Elemental, Ninja, Dwarf, Sphinx, Snake, Assassin, and squirrels
Lastly I want to mention Wraiths as an example of a creature type with basically 0 support but is carried by a good commander, in this case it's Lord of the Nazgûl. For context there are a total of 12 wraiths in all of Magic but despite that it's still decently popular.
I remember when 25$ got you free shipping with Card Kingdom, and NM of bulk cards were 25 cents. The good times 😢
yall did hydras, dragons, and myr dirty
Zombies top of b is ridiculous. Elves and zombies are arguably the same in power, goblins are right there too. In many cases it's a toss up of who gets the combo pieces first.
I'm wondering where was samurai
The first fan to win on game knights did so with a rat deck. Coincidence? I think not!
😂 do turkeys shrink when they make that sound too?
my faeries 😢 they are 100% S-Tier for fun!! little mischievious evasive cute flying things ❤
Wild. Zombies not in S when you build them to any power level. They have the most versatility and scaling.
Wrong and right. Best combo for zombies is better then with diregraf caption.
My spelling might be off fyi
Gravecrawler, headless rider, necroduality, phyraxian Alter./ Carrion Feeder, rooftop storm. Go super wide
I know it takes alot for that yet once you see It. Magical
I am a rogue fan and fiery rogues are amazing!!!!! So my vote is b or c. LoL
I think it's so cute when you two agree on the rating
the hydra disrespect Q_Q
Don't sleep on Arahbo, giving a 1-drop +3/+3 on turn 1-2 is pretty great.
I don’t even play hydras, but my buddy has a Lucea deck and they def aren’t bad what
Woof... my zaxara Hydra and umbris horror decks being my strongest and most favorite to play being put in poop teir..😅 definitely would not complain about getting more support for them though....
I would say phyrexians should be higher because infect/poison. If played right they are a huge danger on the field
If you guys started adding EDH gameplay, I feel that would skyrocket this channel even further. I’d love that!
Rat decks go back forever and a day in 60 card casual magic. Pestilence rats, Lab rats, Razertooth rats, crypt rats (the real pestilence rats). You really could come up with 20-30 cards worth of rats and bang out a 60 card deck. But there wasnt a commander till kamigawa.
The Myr nation will remember this 🙁
Oh boy I cant wait to see where my favorite creature type Hydras rank :)
Where are the Samurai deck??? They have a good Commander Isshin two heavens as one and there are good mechanic with the other Samurai`s
Zombies are A tier with Varina lich queen being the funnest
"Humans are like if you play dnd and make an accountant." IM DEAD
I love my dimir feires deck
Zhulodok on turn 3 is hard to deal with 😂
Edit: Horrors can end 2 players at turn 5 😂
Something there is that does not love a wall....
~Omnath scoffs~
My tribe gettin no love 💔
Okay so I dont think theyre particularly good (in fact i think theyre quite bad), but since I have two decks built around em i have to say my favorite tribe is Dogs. Absolutely not deep enough, and there are only 2 feasible commanders to run, but c'mon, puppies!
Zaxara would like to know your location....
I have a miirym changeling deck, thought it was pretty creative 😢😅
You guys are playing my Hydra deck when we meet up
me in the process of making a hydra deck sigh
We didn’t mean it I promise
Mate, keep making that deck You won't regret it! (Although imo, Lucea is better than Zaxara and I wouldn't necessarily go mono green)
Pirates like pumping themselves?😳
Artifact creatures.
