Orion is my favorite followed by Mystic Timbers. I then have a pretty large gap before Diamondback. I think it's interesting how different people can rank the coasters at Kings Island.
I love seeing everyone’s different mindsets and opinions on coasters! I’ve ridden Orion twice so far and although I love it, Diamond back is still my #1 favorite as I love the airtime on it and it holds a special place in my heart. Diamondback was a HUGE accomplishment for me when I first started getting into roller coasters, and it’s just really special to me. 🥰
IMO Invertigo is the most underrated. It's a bit on the smaller side yes, but it compensates for that with its short lines. I don't think I've ever had to wait more than 30 or 40 minutes.
@@XscreamThrills I agree, but I still always ride Banshee, it might be the coaster with the most varied ride experience ever, some days it is extremely forceful and then sometimes it feels like the track is made of rocks.
RIP Vortex. it was my favorite. And back in the good ol' days, Racer had a foward facing train and a backward facing train! I was very disappointed when they changed it to have two forward facing trains.
Good list. Finally glad to see someone put Orion at the top where it belongs. Row 4 and back on the right side is best. By the way, Invertigo, which was opened as Face Off, is intended to ride across from each other so you "face off" from one another....it's a shame they have lost this. I always ask the people we ride with if they want to sit across from each other so they can see each other. Most people say yes.
@Jose V. bruh I went yesterday in it in the back and middle and it was so rough on my head I had such a bad headache. Then I went in front and it was miles better
I wish they could resolve the roughness issues for Banshee. In the front row its smooth and my favorite invert (I have also ridden Montu and Raptor). But yea, back riw is almost unbearablr
Great video once again! Love KI so much. My list (favorite, not "best") 1. The Beast 2. Orion 3. Diamondback 4. Banshee 5. Mystic Timbers 6. The Bat 7. Vortex would be 7 if it was still standing 7. Adventure Express 8. Backlot Stunt Coaster 9. Racer 10. Flight of Fear 11. Invertigo 12. Woodstock's Express/Beastie 13. Flying Ace Aerial Chase
I like how you've added where your favorite place to ride each coaster is. You should start sometime of database where you put both the pro's and con's on front and back, your suggestion, and let users vote whether they prefer front or back
Yeah The Bat is so hard to find that's why me and my family hardly ever ride it but you should've seen the line on May 5 last year (it was really crowded that day you should've seen The Racer) (also it's one of my favorites)
It sucks that we couldnt keep the Vortex or Firehawk. They would help so much with spacing out the park on top of these new rides. Now the lines at Orion, Banshee, Diamondback will feel longer then they already were
I'm surprised by the people saying Banshee is rough. It was one of the smoothest out of the 100 coasters I've been on, rode it three times. Certainly smoother than The Bat.
Epic video mang. My list is... 1. Diamondback 2. Orion 3. Banshee 4. The Beast 5. Mystic Timbers (still epic, don't get me wrong) 6. Flight of Fear 7. Invertigo 8. Backlot Stunt Coaster 9. The Bat 10. Adventure Express 11. Flying Ace Aerial Chase 12. Woodstock Express 13. Great Pumpkin Coaster 14. Racer
Racer is very low, in the front it’s in my top 8 at the park... also I love bat but dang higher than banshee is very unpopular, but I love to see it! Nothing is fun if everybody thinks the same, great video!
1. Diamondback 2. Mystic Timber’s 3. Orion 4. Beast 5. Banshee Love your list by the way. There is no wrong answer. Always a matter of opinion. People have different tastes about what they like in a ride. I’m always interested to see those differences and similarities when watching these videos. That airtime in the back row on Diamondback always takes the cake for me. Then MT is the wooden airtime machine. Do agree that the first drop on Orion is 2nd to none though. It’s crazy how different DB and Orion are from each other, yet both are excellent rides. Great video my man! Ride On!
Yes I sure am a B&am fanboy! I live in Ohio so it’s a blessing because I got 1 of every major B&M type (or previously had) aside from a Flyer so I can experience a lot of B&M goodness in my state
I never grey out on beast but I feel like I just got done with football practice. It used to be even rougher. They have added trims at the beginning of the ride. Also the best night ride at the park. No lights. A popular UA-camr Tim Tracker once said after a back seat night ride “I can now taste colors”.
I haven't ridden Orion or Mystic Timbers yet so for now my favorite coaster there is The Beast followed by Banshee, The Bat, Diamondback, Firehawk (R.I.P.), Flight of Fear, Adventure Express, Backlot Stunt Coaster, The Racer, Vortex (R.I.P.) and Invertigo.
I like this list. I might put Racer a little higher because I love these old PTC wooden coasters, racer is a solid coaster with some pretty strong sustained Airtime.
My top 10 10. Invertigo 9. Backlot Stunt Coaster 8. The Bat 7. Flight of Fear 6. Banshee 5. Diamondback 4. Beast 3. Orion 2. Mystic Timbers 1. *The Great Pumpkin Coaster*
FUN FACT: Woodstock Express originally opened as Beastie and had a tunnel on its first drop sadly they removed the tunnel at the end of the 2005 season. Opened as the Fairly Odd Coaster in 2006. The tunnel made it much better felt faster especially at night!
@@MrClean-real Do actual research sir when it was Originally built it was to go along side the beast hence the name The Beastie, Then it was changed to fairly odd coaster when they had the Nickelodeon phase, then cedar fair came in and changed it yet again.
@@KB.84 Woodstock Express opened in 1972 as the Scooby Doo. The Beast wasn’t constructed until 1979. You are partially correct in that it was called the Beastie at one point, but that wasn’t until after the beast opened
Just rode Diamondback, as well as everything else at KI last week. I did not notice the rattle. Perhaps this was fixed? It was so smooth, and there is so much airtime, it pushed it above Orion for me. What an incredible ride. That said, The Beast in the dark will remain my #1. There is nothing else like it.
It depends what train you get. I can't remember the color, possibly green? I was there recently, rode it six times and two of those times were incredibly rough. But when it's smooth, it's fantastic
Going to kings island for the first time this year with my class! What rides should I prioritize (Personally, I love going fast but not so much upside down, I have never gone on a roller coaster that doesnt have a floor at the bottum (Where you can kick your legs) and I dont care much about outdoor or indoor. What ride is the best for me?
We were there recently, and I genuinely loved every coaster and rode everything at least twice (besides flying aerial chase). But these are my rankings: Woodstock Express Invertigo Racer Adventure Express Flight of Fear Banshee Bat Backlot Stunt Coaster Beast Mystic Timbers Diamondback Orion
surprised to see backlot so low, it’s a short but yet very thrilling ride. diamondback is one on my favorites along with orion, happy to see them in the top 3.
So you said your first experience had a rattle because of the train you sat in? What train was that, you know, just so that I can stay away from that train when I ride this?
Invertigo looks different in this video than it was when I went several years ago. I wonder how they fixed it all up, when I rode it I got so much headbanging it was painful. Wasnt it called Face Off when it first opened?
My top 10: 1. Diamondback 2. Mystic timbers 3. Orion 4. The beast 5. The bat 6. Flight of fear 7. Banshee 8. Invertigo 9. Backlot stunt coaster 10. The racer (My home park)
@@Spidermonkey260 I understand but in my opinion it’s my favorite coaster in the park. It’s truly insane that the lineup is so stacked that you can put any coaster wherever in your list.
@@tyrone975 yeah, ki is stacked with great coasters. It's such a shame that roughness is a turnoff for me, because I got one smooth ride during haunt and it was insane.
My top three are flight of fear, Orion, and banshee. The reason diamond back isn’t up there is because with Orion, diamond back just seems like a smaller slower version of orion
@@matthewgrogg6375 I agree, man. But, if Orion was in most other major amusement parks it would be the best coaster in the park, but because it's at King Island, it's 3rd or 2nd best for me, at least.
Mystic is still my favorite, although Orion is second. Mystic's pacing is just so good. Adv Express is better than FoF imo, mostly because the ride itself is just more enjoyable. FoF is much rougher this year because of the complete stop in the mid-course causing laterals all the way through the rest of the ride. It's just uncomfortable.
As someone who’s been to the park multiple times, here’s how I’d rank them. 1. Diamondback 2. Orion 3. Banshee 4. The Beast 5. Mystic Timbers 6. Stunt Coaster 7. The Bat 8. Invertigo 9. The Racer 10. Adventure Express 11. Flying Ace 12. Woodstock Express 13. Great Pumpkin Coaster (Can’t rank Flight of Fear as I haven’t been able to ride it yet.)
A few thoughts: I agree with your Top 6, we have the same Top 4. #5 and #6 are just flipped. Mystic Timbers moved up from #4 to #3 in the park for me as I got a night ride in the back and it was awesome! I have Bat at #6. This is super underrated coaster. I have Banshee at #5 due to that rattle. I use to have it higher (#3) but the rattle was bad this past trip Adventure Express is not any good. I would put it at #12. One of the worst endings to any roller coasters. None of Kings Island coasters re in my Top 15. The park has a solid line-up overall.
my ranking! #14: great pumpkin coaster- i didnt get a chance bc im too tall without a child to ride so i had to skip it so… last place #13: flying ace aerial chase- same as a this person said #12: racer. most painful ride in the park. backseat on beast is smoother. OUCH #11: woodstock express- good ride for a kiddie coaster #10: invertigo. i will take time out of my day to skip this ride. #9: adventure express- good, but small and a letdown. #8: the bat- i just found it a little boring. #7: backlot stunt coaster- my favorite ride as a kid! first part plus the launch is SUPER FUN. #6: the beast- rough, but i like the coaster in the middle of the car, where it isnt on the wheels. i also love the two lift hills. #5: flight of fear- fun, not really intense other than launch though :( BUT SUCH GOOD THEMING! #4: banshee- definitely a rattle, but nonetheless still one of the most fun rides at the park. #3: diamondback- it used to be my favorite until i rode orion. now it seems so small😂 #2: mystic timbers- arguably the best theming in the park (along with orion). best wooden coaster that i have ever been on. also i recommend the back on mystic timbers. AMAZINGGG AIRTIME. #1: orion: i rode it twice yesterday and oh my gosh. insane airtime, such high speeds, and it was so smooth. everything you could want from a coaster.
I understand the ranking of these because of the cons about it but, banshee and flight of fear are one of the best. I live by k8ngs island and haven’t been able to ride or on yet but 8m looking forward to it
I just rode Banshee and I swear that was no roughness. I feel like every B&M is smoother than people say.
Yeah I rode it recently and the roughness didn’t bother me.
Flight of Fear is my favorite ride at KI! That take off into the dark is always so exciting and invigorating!
Orion is my favorite followed by Mystic Timbers. I then have a pretty large gap before Diamondback.
I think it's interesting how different people can rank the coasters at Kings Island.
Mystic timber’s is my favorite the airtime on it is so strong
@@blainebasil6577 I love that ride too.
Absolutely it’s easily the best ride at kings island and the night ride on it is incredible
I love seeing everyone’s different mindsets and opinions on coasters! I’ve ridden Orion twice so far and although I love it, Diamond back is still my #1 favorite as I love the airtime on it and it holds a special place in my heart. Diamondback was a HUGE accomplishment for me when I first started getting into roller coasters, and it’s just really special to me. 🥰
@@Sara_Diamondheart haha same, living in mason for most of my life made diamondback the king of kings island
Yes bat is so underrated
I guarantee if Kings Island expanded their park to make The Bat less "out there", The Bat would be so much more popular
I’m gin the car going rn
It really is man great coaster.
You know Bat is starting to get overrated based off of the number of people who call it underrated
I thought it was short and underwhelming
IMO Invertigo is the most underrated. It's a bit on the smaller side yes, but it compensates for that with its short lines. I don't think I've ever had to wait more than 30 or 40 minutes.
You're the king of unpopular opinions lol. First Firechaser Express, now Bat over Banshee?
I like to see it tho!
Everyone has their own taste. I think the rattle on Banshee really ruins the ride.
@@XscreamThrills Aww that sucks. I'd still take a rattle over headbanging any day, though.
@@XscreamThrills I agree, but I still always ride Banshee, it might be the coaster with the most varied ride experience ever, some days it is extremely forceful and then sometimes it feels like the track is made of rocks.
I LOVE BAT I WAS SO SCARED AT FIRST BUT LOVED IT
I literally just went there while we where at a soccer tournament in Cincinnati. This park is fun.
It is, but Cedar Point is better
RIP Vortex. it was my favorite. And back in the good ol' days, Racer had a foward facing train and a backward facing train! I was very disappointed when they changed it to have two forward facing trains.
Yessss. I loved the vortex too can't believe it's gone 😢 💔 and the backwards racer was my favorite I'm sad they've changed all of that
Good list. Finally glad to see someone put Orion at the top where it belongs. Row 4 and back on the right side is best. By the way, Invertigo, which was opened as Face Off, is intended to ride across from each other so you "face off" from one another....it's a shame they have lost this. I always ask the people we ride with if they want to sit across from each other so they can see each other. Most people say yes.
It’s back now
The banshee has no rattle, and i usually sit in the back
@Jose V. ikr and they fixed up the banshee, well they did some touch ups
@Jose V. i just went on bbn banshee yesterday and it was fine
Yeah, i went to KI last week with some friends and Banshee was super smooth. We got to ride it multiple times and not once did we notice a rattle
@Jose V. bruh I went yesterday in it in the back and middle and it was so rough on my head I had such a bad headache. Then I went in front and it was miles better
Ummm guys Banshee has a serious rattle starting from row 3 on back during in between the elements.
I wish they could resolve the roughness issues for Banshee. In the front row its smooth and my favorite invert (I have also ridden Montu and Raptor). But yea, back riw is almost unbearablr
since when was the rattle on banshee unbearable? the beast is easily running WAY rougher than banshee ever has from my 2020 rides of both
I’ve always ridden in the back and it never seemed rough
Maybe that's why the rattle never bothers me. I only ride Banshee in the front. Though that last inl8ne twist is so much fun in the middle.
What? The Banshee has no roughness, even in the back row. I just rode it in the back row yesterday and it was smooth.
It hasn't ever bothered me
Great video once again! Love KI so much.
My list (favorite, not "best")
1. The Beast
2. Orion
3. Diamondback

@@XscreamThrills no question. First rides at age 7, 1992. I was hooked. Definitely a sentimental favorite, but the night ride is still epic.
Put Mystic Timbers at 1 and move everything else down one place.
this vid is underrated, nice job
Thanks!

Sounds like an interesting idea!
@@XscreamThrills Yes PLEASE do this
Pretty easy back gives you the best forces and thrills and front gives you the best scenic view. For most coasters.
Back row on Orion is amazing.
Yeah The Bat is so hard to find that's why me and my family hardly ever ride it but you should've seen the line on May 5 last year (it was really crowded that day you should've seen The Racer) (also it's one of my favorites)
Really crowded during covid??
It IS a trek back there, but we'll worth it!!

Mystic timbers is my favorite ride at kings island it’s so smooth and full of airtime
Its a great wooden coaster! :)
I haven’t been since 2017, hoping I can get at least one visit in this year!
The longest we waited was maybe 30 min., if even that, not counting the weather delay in the evening, or the 20 min. downtime of Orion.
Madison Williams i have a gut felling you had an ice cream at the park
@@timothywait9457 I haven’t been there in 4 years but 4 years ago i did lol

I mean to get Orion meant to get rid of Firehawk
I found banshee actually smooth if you sit on the inside seats on each row
I'll have to try that next time.
I work at banshee and It is my favorite coaster in the park, with that being said i personally think the outside seats are the best
I'm surprised by the people saying Banshee is rough. It was one of the smoothest out of the 100 coasters I've been on, rode it three times. Certainly smoother than The Bat.
If you sit closer to the back, it starts picking up a nasty rattle
@@XscreamThrills I'll try that next time!

4. The Beast
5. Mystic Timbers (still epic, don't get me wrong)

Robert Ingram A man of culture I see‼️
Respectable top five!

Yes I sure am a B&am fanboy! I live in Ohio so it’s a blessing because I got 1 of every major B&M type (or previously had) aside from a Flyer so I can experience a lot of B&M goodness in my state
Thank you for mentioning in your reviews of coasters where the best seat to sit is!
You're welcome!
I always think about how smooth B&M inverts r but apparently the newest one is pretty rough!😬
banshee isn't rough tho
Depends where u sit I like back to get pulled on the drop but it’s more ruff than front
Just curious: is that helix on the Beast intense enough to make riders grey out? It sure looks hella intense!
I never greyed out, but that doesn't mean others might.
It's not intense for me, just super crazy
Amazing ride, very long and fun especially at night!
I never grey out on beast but I feel like I just got done with football practice. It used to be even rougher. They have added trims at the beginning of the ride. Also the best night ride at the park. No lights. A popular UA-camr Tim Tracker once said after a back seat night ride “I can now taste colors”.
Definitely more laterals than vertical gs. Never grayed out but its definitely intende
I just visited KI for the first time 4 days ago. I need to go back to ride the rest of the coasters
I haven't ridden Orion or Mystic Timbers yet so for now my favorite coaster there is The Beast followed by Banshee, The Bat, Diamondback, Firehawk (R.I.P.), Flight of Fear, Adventure Express, Backlot Stunt Coaster, The Racer, Vortex (R.I.P.) and Invertigo.
8:09 Stunning!
I like this list. I might put Racer a little higher because I love these old PTC wooden coasters, racer is a solid coaster with some pretty strong sustained Airtime.
Ahhh I was gonna do this exact same video as my next one 😂 might have to wait on it now. Also, I can’t believe how low racer is! I loved it.

Great video! Mystic Timbers is my favorite 😄
You're right about flight of fear and tall people. I'm glad I was fortunate to ride it in my teens because I can't get the bar over my knees anymore 😔
went there today, I didn’t ride all of them but all of the main ones! Orion was my fav
I go to kings island all summer long. And I love all! But I am a big fan of big rides so I love Orion!!
That’s cool
I can't wait to get to kings island this year! This will be the first time since 2017!
Have fun!
Racer is always fun to race your family members on to see who will win and choose the next ride
FUN FACT: Woodstock Express originally opened as Beastie and had a tunnel on its first drop sadly they removed the tunnel at the end of the 2005 season. Opened as the Fairly Odd Coaster in 2006. The tunnel made it much better felt faster especially at night!

Ok actually weird question but how much Airtime does Great pumpkin have? Because I know some of those E&F Miller's are better than others.
I don't recall any airtime
Finally someone talks about KI.
So you said your first experience had a rattle because of the train you sat in? What train was that, you know, just so that I can stay away from that train when I ride this?
I don't remember, it was only speculation that the train was the culprit
I ride Banshee all the time, and without a doubt I find the teal train to be the roughest
Invertigo looks different in this video than it was when I went several years ago. I wonder how they fixed it all up, when I rode it I got so much headbanging it was painful. Wasnt it called Face Off when it first opened?

I totally agree with all the rankings on this list.
My top three are flight of fear, Orion, and banshee. The reason diamond back isn’t up there is because with Orion, diamond back just seems like a smaller slower version of orion
Mystic Timbers is the best and smoothest ride in the park imo
Orion’s first drop alone is better than all of mystic timbers combined
Mystic timbers is incredibly smooth for a wooden coaster.
I’d say that the Bat is the second smoothest in the park

Back row on flight of fear is so much better cause of the elements after the mid course brakes 💯😍
We didn’t ride mystic timbers, we thought it was a water ride. Now I wish we rode it. Maybe next year
Mystic is still my favorite, although Orion is second. Mystic's pacing is just so good.
Adv Express is better than FoF imo, mostly because the ride itself is just more enjoyable. FoF is much rougher this year because of the complete stop in the mid-course causing laterals all the way through the rest of the ride. It's just uncomfortable.
Is there a reason that vortex is not on here ( I like it )
Because it's no longer at Kings Island
XscreamThrills, you say a lot of coasters are rough. How is magnum or banshee rough?
Banshee has a rattle, or at least it did the last time I rode it. Magnum isn't really rough as it is janky transitions
My top five:
5: The Shake, Rattle, and Roll
4: Monster
3: The Racer
2: Orion
1: Mystic Timbers
Racer was my first roller coaster
Adventure express was my favorite as a kid
I love the banshee diamondback, and flight of fear
What train on Diamondback has the most notable rattle?
The green train
The orange train
Or the red train
Not sure
The Beast is by far the best ride, unbeatable at night I don’t care how much it beats you up these days.
This might be controversial but Mystic Timbers is my favorite :)
Honestly the while park is underrated, it's my childhood park. I loved this video, except q few things but yea lol :)
I liked the top gun roller coaster which I think is now bat because that day I’m the wait was short!
Beast has to be top 3, riding it at night is unmatched
Hahaha, back row racer, hahaha! Tried that this year because people talk about the airtime on it and it just jackhammers me way to hard.
I want to ride banshee it looks fun
What’s your issue with rattle
Like on diamondback there is basically no rattle
There are a couple spots with a very noticeable rattle
Dude. Banshee is amazing.
As someone who’s been to the park multiple times, here’s how I’d rank them.
1. Diamondback
2. Orion
3. Banshee
4. The Beast
5. Mystic Timbers
6. Stunt Coaster
7. The Bat
8. Invertigo
9. The Racer
10. Adventure Express
11. Flying Ace
12. Woodstock Express
13. Great Pumpkin Coaster
(Can’t rank Flight of Fear as I haven’t been able to ride it yet.)
Need to get on FOF. First time I went on it I thought it was breaking and I was going to get decapitated.
I thought the beast was going to be boring. Ended up being my favorite ride there.
It's gotten so much better once they refurbished it
I am so short that I hardly noticed the rattle on banshee
A few thoughts:
I agree with your Top 6, we have the same Top 4. #5 and #6 are just flipped.
Mystic Timbers moved up from #4 to #3 in the park for me as I got a night ride in the back and it was awesome!
I have Bat at #6. This is super underrated coaster.
I have Banshee at #5 due to that rattle. I use to have it higher (#3) but the rattle was bad this past trip
Adventure Express is not any good. I would put it at #12. One of the worst endings to any roller coasters.
None of Kings Island coasters re in my Top 15. The park has a solid line-up overall.
I don’t know how your favorite row on Racer is the back. I always get stapled in the back and it hurts like heck.
IM THERE!!!!
my ranking!
#14: great pumpkin coaster- i didnt get a chance bc im too tall without a child to ride so i had to skip it so… last place
#13: flying ace aerial chase- same as a this person said
#12: racer. most painful ride in the park. backseat on beast is smoother. OUCH
#11: woodstock express- good ride for a kiddie coaster
#10: invertigo. i will take time out of my day to skip this ride.
#9: adventure express- good, but small and a letdown.
#8: the bat- i just found it a little boring.
#7: backlot stunt coaster- my favorite ride as a kid! first part plus the launch is SUPER FUN.
#6: the beast- rough, but i like the coaster in the middle of the car, where it isnt on the wheels. i also love the two lift hills.
#5: flight of fear- fun, not really intense other than launch though :( BUT SUCH GOOD THEMING!
#4: banshee- definitely a rattle, but nonetheless still one of the most fun rides at the park.
#3: diamondback- it used to be my favorite until i rode orion. now it seems so small😂
#2: mystic timbers- arguably the best theming in the park (along with orion). best wooden coaster that i have ever been on. also i recommend the back on mystic timbers. AMAZINGGG AIRTIME.
#1: orion: i rode it twice yesterday and oh my gosh. insane airtime, such high speeds, and it was so smooth. everything you could want from a coaster.
I understand the ranking of these because of the cons about it but, banshee and flight of fear are one of the best. I live by k8ngs island and haven’t been able to ride or on yet but 8m looking forward to it
8m look8ng forward to go8ng also 8n the summer
@@coleschaefer4390 8 am go8ing th8s saturday. No harm ment by th8s comment.
Imagine the beast get a retrack and the beast is butter smooth
