Sabertooth vs Raptor: Who Would Win?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 дек 2023
- This is the first of a new series I'm calling "The Anachro-Lab", an animated series depicting fights between species who normally were separated by millions of years. This pilot episode took two years to produce! The next episode is already underway and will hopefully take a bit less time to create.

As someone who played with both character models I can say that smilodon plays smoother but utahraptor had a much higher skill ceiling
I dont know about that, i see alot of new players playing the Utahraptor. the Smiledon does have the advantage for the for the higher bite damage and i feel takes more macro to use compared to the utahrapter, as your claw attacks arent that good for slash attacks.
it's weird - i see both y'all's points. A *ton* of utahraptor noobies just played dead until you got on top of them, then they just spammed kick hoping to land crit - it's here I can see henrik's point. But awe-inspiring utahraptor gameplay comes from those players who just had an innate connection with their characters, and it's because of that their fighting styles are so much more dynamic and aggressive, ultimately giving utahraptor the edge over pure skill possibilities.
@@henriklund4288 They were removed for balancing and world building reasons many, many updates ago. What server are you talking about lol
in teams it wasn’t balanced at all to be honest, Utah would win.
@@PurplesttCoffee fans opened a server for us to play with these.
A tierzoo death battle series is exactly what the world needed
Exactly what I wanted to write!😂❤
Hopefully it ups the content quantity. I love this man so much
I mean there's Goji Center's death battle but it's mostly with fiction version of Dinos (like Ark or Jurassic Park) but they did a scientific battle between the Rex and Spino and with a Mammoth (but not the wooly one and in a different video)
Amen
@@victorhernandez5013Yeah Goji did a fight between a T. rex and a Paleoloxodon. Paleo won, but it was a close fight.
i absolutely LOVE this animation style! it's a perfect blend of realistic proportions and colours while still having a geometric charm with the more stylized models and simple lighting. it's incredibly pleasing to the eye and i never expected something of this nature from the channel, but i am all here for it! it looks amazing!!
I played a game called Cell to Singularity a few yra before the lockdown, it brought me back to that with the animation style
Aaaahhhhh yesssssSIRRR
Yeah, it's simple to render and it looks amazing.
Very happy to discover this new show on the channel.
I like his animation style
Straight outta animal planet
I love the 1:35-2:15 segment and the fact that the animation actually captures the difference between dinosaurian and mammalian vision stabilization while moving.

This is an AWESOME turn for the channel! And they don't even always have to be death matches, they could be races to loot or securing an area. Team death matches would be a treat too!
That’s actually a great idea, there’s so many objectives that could be the focus. Objective defense of any sort, surviving another predator, or any of them that you mentioned.
Yeah, we gotta get the Dire Wolves Team or American Lion Pride up in here.
This is a great idea
This video inspired the idea of “Velociraptor Vs Timberwolf” they’re seemingly the same thing. But millions of years apart
goated comment
I didn't realize that there was room for this channel to make such a huge leap in quality... being able to actually make the scenario you want to show is going to be incredible for the future of this style of content. Incredible work
i saw the models, i saw the animation, but it wasn't until they started fighting that it hit me "oh, he ACTUALLY just did that"
now, just like before, tierzoo has tapped into a niche noone has before
I got very excited when they released the new texture pack and character models.
Yeah this is cool!
you might say his work has climbed to a new tier of quality
I hope he keeps using real life clips, though. They are funny
I love the reference to Animal Planet's "The Most Extreme!" I would binge watch that show as a kid! Thanks for the little nostalgia trip :)
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY!!! So glad someone else caught it. Was such a great show
My brother and I would drop everything to watch The Most Extreme as a kid, thanks for showing we're not alone.
I felt I was a kid again when watching this video. I loved it
I was just about to say this 🥹 when animal planet was about animals lol only the ogs will remember
The reference to the old green countdown series is so nostalgic to me i love this so much. And the Animation is incredible
The animation team did a fantastic job! And congrats on finally being able to release the pilot
released? these are outdated and removed from the servers long time ago. they were on pre-alpha versions.
This is crazy high production value! The models look great, the animation is fluid, and the sound design is awesome. The moment where Smilodon misses a neck bite and the bass sting hits is perfection. This is insanely good.
Also love how it's a call back to the old Animal Kingdom show 'THE MOST EXTREME' they were well known for this aesthetic & even did comparisons like this sometimes. Was obsessed as a kid
Seriously- my biggest takeaway was how good and immersive the audio was
This is so cool
This was BRILLIANTLY animated!
They need to make this a game.
Imagine " Prehistoric Combat"
Watch the players pit a housecat against a 0.6m ancient firefly
Never going to happen
It’s called Outside
Path of Titans modded ig
Look up DinoBlade
I've been watching from the very beginning of tierzoo, I knew someday that this format would be big one day and it has. The difference between the production value from the past to now is amazing, keep it up!
The coolest part is watching him go from starting to learn animation to this it’s pretty inspiring
The combination of 'The Most Extreme' facts and 'Deadliest Warrior' fights is so nostalgic. Cannot wait to see more episodes.
I'm more reminded of Animal Face-Off from Discovery Channel, which bears a similar format to this video.
That and Jurassic Fight Club.
I miss Deadliest Warrior. The geek in the first season made the show so interesting, but they kicked him out for the Navy Seal guy who was a complete joke and made the show go downhill.
Deadliest warrior great show!! Who wants to see a tier list of all the different human warriors throughout history?
@@AgsmaJustAgsma The black and green segments with the floating zeroes and ones is a visual reference to Most Extreme.
That utahraptor straight up SHANKED the smiledon at the end🔪🔪
very cool! I'm glad there's a breakdown of the many ways the fight could go rather than just going through the one narrative and leaving it at that. it was also really neat to see the storyboards/sketches afterward. I hope that'll stay for future videos as well.
the animation on this is crazy good
Fr
yeah, whats with that budget?
I've always said character animation was much more important than realistic textures to make a CG character believable, and I'd say this is proof of that
In this case, the models and textures can be described as having a deliberate art style, which contends well with ultra realism, AND ages better too.
@@curts7801 It's also a smart choice for something that is violent, but also fictional. Don't want to give the impression that real animals are suffering.
Very true
Factssss
The devs have done an ace job with the graphical updates and the movement based physics engine here - top work! This season is off to a flying start!
This was absolutely amazing and stunning and beautifully explained!!! I cannot even describe my joy right now. I look forward to more of this content!!!
As an animator myself, Ive got to give massive credit to your animation crew --- theyve done an insane job with styling these characters right and capturing their minor quirks and characteristics. Ive seen hollywood do far worse.
Props all-round -- Super keen to see more of these styles of videos!
Agreed, I was not expecting such amazing animation.
NO WAY IT'S AN ANIMATION!??
Exactly, you can see the references and the use of weight is incredibly well executed. By far better than the lion king 2019
Brilliant animation I’m excited to see the future of this series!
Stylisation is brilliant
This is ingame footage wym
Since my pc is terrible I usually use this graphical setting
This takes me back to those classic animal planet versus episodes, and I really hope to see this series thrive for a while. I've always been a huge fan of TierZoo and seeing this new video format is nothing but awesome. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the effort and energy you put into the videos!
Love how he nailed the vibe of the most extreme!
maaaaannnn I remember those😭 Nat Geo would do something like that too but actual wild life
Nebula subscriber here. I love the risk you’ve taken trying out a new format. And all the investment you put in it.
Personally, I love your work for the fun, gamification of concepts in evolution and ecology, and analysis of the strategy behind different play styles… I mean adaptations.
There are a lot of “animal fights imagined” content, and I don’t think this format is where your enthusiasm and approach shines.
I love your “let’s play outside” playtests. I think they draw on your strengths as a creator and find them much more interesting and entertaining than these head-to-head fights.
I love everything about this honestly, the animated battle then detailed explanation is very entertaining; aswell as the stylization of the 3D models is sick
I adore the stylistic callback to THE MOST EXTREME. If you're taking suggestions, consider Quetzalcoatlus vs something tanky at the cusp of its theoretical carry limit, like arthropleura. It would be interesting to speculate if a giraffe-sized Pteranodon could break something's armor with its sheer size, or possibly have the intelligence to pick it up high and drop it.
Yesssss! Only other person I've seen mention the most extreme!
This was an awesome throwback lol.
There we go, I was looking for the name
Growing up watching Animal Planet, The green matrix models and numbers are a vibe I'll never forget
The most extreme😂😂😂 everyday in highschool
Omg that's such a call back!
Can we talk about the caution, threat displays, and feints the predators use on each other? Whatever anyone else has to say about the abandonment of the "Outside" ARG format, the low-res modeling, or whatever, I insist that the behavior and tactics in the encounter, and the evaluation in the voiceover, are deeply convincing and well-executed! The character of the animals' movements, the pulsating of the herbivore's olfactory tunnel thing, the pacing of the video, and the reasoned post-fight analysis are all spot-on and beautiful things to see... Congratulations, and best of wishes for the new series!
This is an absolute blast from the past, and I love the inspiration you've taken for this series!
Unfortunately the name of the show has been lost to my memory, your videos always felt like a way to fill that niche of biology facts presented in an entertaining way, and this is an incredible next step. I can't wait to see the next episode and please take as much time as you and your team need!
I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this. I look forward to seeing which of these prehistoric animals you pit against one another next. Additionally, just so you are aware for your next fight, Dakotaraptor was not contemporary with Utahraptor, but with Tyrannosaurus rex. Beyond this, there is evidence Smilodon could bite into bone; a Glyptotherium skull with puncture marks matching Smilodon canines shows the cat could kill armored prey if it was careful, but likewise, they also have been confirmed to have done this to their own kind in fights as skulls and other bones show.
Honestly. Massive props to the animator(s). Those were some smooth ass animations from start to finish. A supremely well done job.
I mean, they were using 3d models. not that hard to make it be incredibly smooth. How the animals moved though, yeah, that was amazing.
Incredibly nuanced depictions based on minute observation of living animal movements and reactions... and super extra bonus for the comedy double-takes in the wireframe segment!
That animation was so fluid.
The models for Utahraptor and Smilodon are also beautiful.
Make more of these.
Now THIS is a great video! I clicked on it expecting the normal shoddily done video filled with wrong information, poor graphics and bad AI. Thanks for the pleasant surprise, I loved it!
ooooooooooooooooo You got Wobbly in on this!!!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE!
surprised your in here!
The 3D animation coupled with your amazing narration makes this video one of my favorites all time! I want to thank you deeply for all the energy, time and efforts that you have put into this Anachro-Lab video series
It's easier to watch than prior ones.
It’s pretty safe to say that the 2 years of work everyone put into this was worth it. Outstanding video with amazing quality! Keep it up tierzoo!
Wow its crazy that it took em this long
It's already outdated though, I would tell him to stop touching paleontology with a 10 foot pole.
@@fishyfishyfishy500akabs8 ikr, that scene with the raptor taking down the sauropod looked dubious
We are one step closer to outside being a real game
6 minutes and 57 seconds did not take 2 years. If this video was actually in the works for 2 years, that's embarrassing.
Yo this is the sickest fight animation ive ever seen on youtube. When the raptor dodged the attack on its neck I literally gasped
This is easily one of my favourite videos on RUclips now! Thank you for making it, and please please make more!
As someone who loved watching The Most Extreme as a kid on Animal Planet, I appreciate all the effort you went through to capture the aesthetic perfectly. The only thing missing was the music used in the show.
I was thinking the same thing! I'm glad that someone's creating a sort of spiritual successor to the series.
This show and weird true and freaky were my childhood
I was hoping someone would mention it as i legit forgot the name of it but it feels like a fever dream seeing it now
This feels like animal planets Animal Face-off. They only did a single season in 2004, but it was good
@@lavalasher Oh yeah I also remember watching a bit of that too! Tierzoo did a great homage for both series. I also vaguely remember another show that I believe I watched on Discovery that's like Animal Face-off but involved robot recreations of certain animals to have them fight each other? I distinctly remember it being a robot polar bear vs a robot shark but I may be misremembering.
I love how the Anachro-Lab has the same background as the cgi sections of "The Most Extreme." I love that series. I love how much thought and research you put into the outcome, and the animation on the animals is great. I can't wait to see more episodes.
So glad you liked it! Thanks!
Especially the fact that Utah could dodge bc 2 legs while smiledon couldn't
I thought the same thing! I absolutely loved that series growing up, I'm was so happy to see Tierzoo incorporate it
I miss that show.
@@TierZoo I've been subbed for a while, and I've really enjoyed seeing your channel progress. Good job. Thank you for showing people how awesome learning can actually be. If you pick a field that actually piques your curiosity and has some value behind it, entire careers can coexist with the childlike excitement of looking at dinosaurs and bugs. God bless you.
I really appreciate the fact that you've credited everyone involved with this. There's so many RUclipsrs who get loads of help and act like they're the only reason they're successful. Just one of the many reasons I continue to stay subscribed to this channel!
Polar bear vs Siberian tiger, perfect for this type of animation. One of the best vs. questions out there imo
Are you insane? The polar bear would win easy diff
Yeah, A grizzly va a Siberian tiger would be much fairer
@@blacktiger0103 Not really. 900 pound Grizzly still slams the Tiger.
@@amanbirbthe4th967 I completely agree, but the sheer number of day to day people that disagree is troubling
grizzlies on average is 400-600. they are nowhere near 900 most of the times. tigers are around the same weight
@@Rhedosaurus
This is where the Smilodon said “it’s smilin time” and then smiled over everyone.
Agreed. A true smile moment
:)
🅱️ravo Vince
Just like morbius morbed everyone…
@@Raziel354
Because Smile Dog never truly left our subconscious.
This feels like "Monster Bug Wars" but actually well researched and with better thought out matchups. Hope this performs as well as it deserves!
As for new matchups, I think matching up two herbivorous animals well known for their huge claws would be interesting. That being Megatherium vs Therizinosaurus.
Took the comment right out of my mouth.
The miss matches and lies in that series were brutal
i love chicken sounds while bugs groom their feelers, wtf are you talking about scrub
This video is not well researched at all. Utahraptor wasn't jumping on animals mindlessly cutting tgem
@@julianozaur444
Raptors are one of, if not the most intelligent dinosaurs during its time. Given that Utahraptors are more solitary creatures, it just mindlessly cutting its prey would lead to its death far quicker than normal.
Im amazed how far this Channel has come. The animation looks great and puts the already amazing content to the next level. Im hyped for 2024 on TierZoo
Coming back to this channel after months without being recommended and… holy fuck… what a way to stay relevant, good job!
you know it’s a good century when TierZoo uploads.
Fr
Millennium*
You must have a really boring life if RUclips uploads are the only things that get you excited
@@JBrotsis1you realize this is a joke about tierzoo’s inconsistent upload schedule… right?
@@Polygonfella1662 *aeon
Insane production value and incredible animation. One can tell a lot of effort was put into this. I would love to see more interactions
could straight up just be a tv show at this point ngl
Loving the different video format!!! Not a ranking of the meta but instead an analisis with a bit of speculation of match-ups.
Plz keep making more of this :D
The animation work in this is excellent. The visuals of Utah's hunting style clicked with me for the first time seeing how the team depicted it here. Somehow it never occurred to me how quickly Utah would eviscerate it's marks. The stylized models kept things appealing, but the motion felt smooth, authetic, and well choreographed. Cant sing the praises of this enough.
as a kid who grew up watching “The Most Extreme” and reading animal matchups books at my school’s book fair
this was sincerely such a treat to watch; im so looking forward for more videos like this
Hello fellow most extreme watcher
I've been looking for "The Most Extreme" but it looks like it's nowhere to be seen... It was absolutely fun to me and I want to share it but I can't find it
I've seen clips on RUclips but yeah I have run into same issue
THE STORYBOARDS AT THE END ARE SO CUTE!! They have so much expression and the 3d modeling was awesome! Smooth movements heavy sfx and an amazing concept! I think any soft of team defence from a pair of species or just a single defending from an uncommon one could be so cool to see!
This is basically the tier zoo version of goji center's monster faceoff series and I love it
That nostalgic sound track at end from science class years of not hearing that, that’s just awesome
Such a great modern homage to classic Animal Planet shows like "The Most Extreme". This gave me nostalgia. I hope you do more. Nice stylized models and the setup and fight feel plausible and not overly exaggerated.
Yes! Brought me back too. Glad I’m not alone in the nostalgia!
Same. I freaked out a bit when I saw the green grid
Came here to say this! It gives me old school Animal Planet vibes and I love that. So much nostalgia!!
The sound design is crisp and feels good to listen to, and the animation is just pure eye candy, overall amazing video!👍
Mmh. Thanks for pointing out the sound design. I have a bad habit of not noticing the sound design at all, when it's really really good!
As always. This guy always puts out some of the coolest stuff
the music is from Loop Hero :)
fr
Love this one! Such a cool break down and the affects are so fun 🤩
This is incredible. Your narration lends itself perfectly to this more naturalistic style of animal examination, and while I'd never suggest you abandon your channel's namesake tier lists and style, this is a nice change of pace and an incredible execution of the premise.
Holy shit, two years to produce!? This is an insanely cool project, I love it
Man, this is giving me some MAJOR 2000s Animal Planet vibes with it reminding me of both The Most Extreme and Animal Face-Off! 🤩
Amazing work TierZoo, and can’t wait for more!! ❤️
Yoooo sameeee
I was about to say the same! It's like the revival of my childhood right here xD
The nostalgia
Polar bear vs walrus man the fucking nostalgia
Now those two show names are something I haven’t heard in a long time
HAHAHAH excelent video!!!! well made, the polygonal look is badass because retain the accuracy in anatomy shapes. The analisys was well made bro, very good job on this hipothetical fight!!!! I always ask me a lot who cames victorious between this two predators, and I still asking for other fighting results like Barinasuchus vs Megistotherium, T rex vs Giganotosaurus, Torvosaurus vs Saurophaganax, Daeodon vs Short faced bear and more!!!! Thanks for this and for the music at the end, this sounds like Eyewitness show on The Discovery Channel in 90´s when I was a kid!
I know I'm way too late to this video, but I must say the concept is amazing and the execution was even better than what I expected. Hope we see more of these in the future!
Sadly I don’t think these videos will hit your normal view count, but please don’t stop making them. The series from this would be amazing and WILL blow up. Great job on the animation from your team.
Give it time, eventually videos that are well made will age overtime. Trust.
The textures were, understandably, quite low-res here. A higher quality of animation could attract larger audience. The problem is that this would require more up-front cost. As it is, it's not going to attract many more people that would watch tierzoo anyway, I think.
i actually like low poly look better. realisim will just make it generic
@@jakistam1000
Its almost at a million views right now. Itll be fine
It'd be fun if he eventually turns these into a tournament by pitching the winners against each other.
i think another major thing is that smilodon might not even expect its opponent to have powerful hind claws like that, while i imagine utahraptor could easily see smilodon's fangs and was already familiar with that fighting style
coming across a new opponent leaves you open for surprises, and im pretty sure that's another disadvantage smilodon had
Nearly all animals have thrashing legs that cats know to avoid... You never see a cat learning on top of an animal belly to belly... They would be on its back away from the legs.
@@lafunk1978 but that is exactly what happened in this video?
@@fghsgh but I was just saying that this video didn't seem very accurate.
@@lafunk1978 I mean a death match in nature is unrealistic anyway, one of them would have backed off. Predators don't do reckless death brawls. Also it might have been the only attack option in a open fight if you have to pin down your opponent for a solid strike.
I'd like to see the Smilodon replaced with a Shortfaced Bear and see if the bear's larger size and bulk would make up for the drop in mobility/stealth and reduced fang size (although greater bite force).
We need more of this, I enjoyed the whole thing from start to end .absolutely fantastic, Amazing Job! and cant wait to see more in the future :-0
Now this is epic! I've always loved dromeosaurids since I can remember, so this episode was a real treat
Man, the choreography with the animation is incredibly good for entertainment AND education! The same can be said for the sound design and it was really cool to see the storyboards!
Absolutely love low poly art styles, looks so beautiful and unique, while also being way easier to manage and animate over standard models.
Should look into Cell To Singularity (not sponsor btw)
I will say, Having made both high and low poly models, It actually isn't really easier to manage because there is a _lot_ that goes into making low poly topology which deforms the way you want it to. You have to really localize things and have specific topology which deforms well. In high poly modeling, Topology is extremely important, But you also don't really need to individually worry about the effect of each individual polygon on your deformations. I would liken it to drawing vs pixel art. Neither one is really easier or harder than the other. They're just different skillsets which overlap in the fundamentals.
This was an awesome video. I would love to see highly debated one: a grizzly bear vs a silverback gorilla
Wow... i cannot imagine how much work went into this. It was great and i want to see more! Been following you for ages and this new kind of video is perfect.
I hope we get more duel style videos with this animation team, I can imagine great things from them
Instantly getting top 10 most extreme vibes from the beginning and I love it
Yes!!! Bro I remember watching that as a child back when Animals Planet was in it's prime
@@GreyLeoYeah before they decided to axe all the good shows for dramas and stuff that have an animal in there for less than 5 minutes to be put on the channel.
I forgot about that show and would LOVE TierZoo rebooting the consept.
@@archellothewolf2083 I mean that is essentially TierZoo’s whole channel in a Nutshell.
Dude, the video is incredible, the animation doesn't even need to be said, it's awesome and next time do Allosaurus vs African elephant pls
The narration is also incredible
allosaurus was simply too small to take on an African Elephant, a more fair fight would be allosaurus's big brother: giganotosaurus vs African elephant
I loved this animation style, please keep this up! it’s tremendous!!!
3:58 I think this particular Smilodon player made the critical mistake at this exact point. By not ensuring that the hind limbs of the Utah Raptor were fully subdued, the Smilodon left itself open to counterattack, which when done with that sickle claw spelled doom for the poor Smilodon.
Still, an excellent breakdown of the pros and cons of either of the players, and I loved this.
The Smilodon had more to fight for: lost prey to another predator, another predator in its territory, etc. This wouldve been a short fight. Real life predators dont risk injury without reward. The Smilodon is the only predator with any real reason to fight. In all likelyhood the Utahraptor wouldve ran as soon as it saw the Smilodon.
@@tonygoodwinjr9293 I think it might have hesitated a bit becouse of curiosity, just enaugh to hear Smilodon's roar, shit itself and then run away. Remember dinosaurs didn't have vocal chords, nor a syrinx, so Smilodon would have been a lot louder and more vocally intimidating.
@@tonygoodwinjr9293 uh, we literally dont knwo the complete ecosystem that any dinosaur lived in, in fact we may never know. Only bones with perefect conditions can be fossilied, wich only happend more often in certain exovation sites, for them to be survive tens of millions to even hundreds of millions of years.
For all we know there were plenty predators around Utharaptor just as big as itself or even bigger, considering that bigger mammalian predators exist than the Smilodon.
Incredible idea for a series. I love not only the fact that it suits your channel insanely well, but you also state a winner and bring arguments as on why they would have the edge. I've seen many series like these that are afraid of picking a side end let the viewer decide. More please!
I love this style of videos! The animation callbacks to the most extreme is making me feel some type of way. Please do more
Polar bear vs giant ground sloth would be neat to see.
Two of the greatest apex predators of their times.
well, the giant sloths were not apex predators, omnivores maybe, but PREDATORS? nah. Also, depends of the species, but most of them would take the life out of a polar bear in a second
Giant ground sloths dwarf polar bears don’t they?
@nicolaszamudio8699 they were comparable in size. Sloths had longer rear legs but polar bears had slightly longer bodies. It'd actually probably come down to the ground sloth winning because they have a longer reach than polar bears do and their claws were better at pierce damage than the polar bears which was better at slash damage, rendering the thick fur shield buff utterly useless on the polar bear
@@nicolaszamudio8699 depends of the species. Megatherium would blast a polar bear out of existence in a second
@@siats142didn’t they have razors sharp claws and an extra 2 feet PLUS 400lbs on a polar bear?
Thank you for using the green display from "The Most Extreme," TierZoo. Seeing that gave me some good nostalgic vibes because TME was one of my favorite Animal Planet shows growing up. I hope you'll be able to use it more and keep this series going!
Also, pitting a therizinosaur against a giraffe in the outro? My man, that's just 100% one-sided lol.
*Edit:* If I had to throw in a nomination or two, I'd recommend pitting a woolly mammoth against an African elephant, or maybe polar bear vs. a cave bear? Hell, you might as well try throwing in some mythological animals/cryptids for fun!
Dang, the fight choreography was so good! All the animations looked like they were straight out of a nature documentary, but the cinematography made the fight feel engaging. The Cat noticing the raptor, the bluffing, the opportunistic grapple using its superior height by the raptor, the raptor evasion of the cat first neck bite attack, and and the desperate counterattack by the raptor to save its life were all high points.
Such good work!
I really love the reference to The Most Extreme with the green background of numbers flying by! ❤
Suggestions for future VS videos:
Elephant/Mammoth vs T-rex/Triceratops
Rhino vs Allosaurus/Carnotaurus
Giraffe vs Therizinosaurus
Wolf vs velociraptor
Big Cat vs Gorgonops
Utahraptor vs Terror bird
Orca vs Deinosuchus/Sacrosuchus
Dimetrodon vs Crocodile/Komodo dragon
Basilocetus vs Tylosaurus
And that's all I got for now.
The visual team here did such a crazy amazing job!! So did the sound team wow
And of course well written & narrarated as always. This was such a fun video style!
He learned how to animate for this series we dont appreciate him much
It's cool that you're releasing these outside of curiosity stream! I love the models and animation. it also reminds me of Xtreme Animals with the holographic black and green parts when explaining the creatures with the 1's and 0's. Brings some nostalgia while synergizing amazingly with the new and somewhat unfamiliar.
In the first 30 frames of the distinct green reference grid... I was right back to childhood watching Xtreme Animals too. A perfect homage!
This fascinates me to no end. I'm so glad I found this channel!
This is by far one of the coolest videos I've ever seen. Awesome work and I can't wait for more. Honestly would love to see an aquatic fight, especially considering that sharks and alligators/crocodiles have been around for so long. Maybe even something with a megalodon? Don't know, just an idea!
This is literally so sick. Been a longtime follower now and everything just keeps getting better and better. So glad the quality has not been sacrificed as you've gotten bigger and bigger. I would absolutely die to see a modern day great white shark versus a saltwater crocodile! Thanks for everything you do TZ ❤️🔥
Which do you think would win between those two?
As much as I love salt water crocodiles I don't think there's much of a chance, they're roughly the same length but the shark is like 6 feet wide and could probably bite the Croc In half like hippos do
I love Crocs, but this fight would pretty much need to take place in the Shark’s territory and doing so would give it a large edge I reckon. I’m giving it to the Shark 7/10 times. The Croc would really need to get lucky with its bites and strike first as its armour probably won’t do much against the Shark’s bite. Aiming for its fins is step one, but so would be avoiding the Shark 😅
What illness was it, literally?
yeah the croc doesn't stand much of a chance
death roll is off the table since it'd have to take place completely submerged
the croc's armor doesn't really do anything to stop the great white, meanwhile i imagine the great white is large enough to trade bites with the croc and come out victorious
cause while the croc does have a really strong bite, it's teeth aren't really long enough
I loved how this was realistic, educational, and fun to watch. The way the creatures are animated and interact with each other seems so organic and plausible.
This looks amazing! Your work is the best and you always find a way to go to the next level. Keep up the baller work.
Really well made video. The story board and animation were super fun to watch!
your videos are becoming ever more incredible over time, you're killing it! insane production value and extremely good quality content
I actually missed all the old-school meme sounds. If he stopped making the memeier videos I'd be a bit sad, but if he made both, I enjoy these too.
@@weeveferrelaine6973 its better when he started it as a joke rather than actually trying to be more toward educational. because the format isn't really good for that.
MEGALODON VS MOSASAURUS!!!!
its been in my mind ever since i was a kid, and i want tk know who would win
This is awesome, I remember seeing work in progress clips from older videos, and got super excited! Keep these up, these kinds of videos would've been a dream come true for kid me!
Please make T-Rex 🦖 vs mammoth 🦣
that would be the quickest battle ever lol
Tyrannosaur’s bite force makes it overpowered against any animal
Tyrannosaurus will tear down the Mammoth's tusk 🤔
This is exactly the kind of low-poly work that I've been trying to learn and master for myself, and my god is it hard to get right. Please, not only would I love to see more of these, but please work with the same animator and modeller for future instalments. This work is so high quality.
Edit: I will say, that due to possessing the avian respiratory system, most theropods, Utahraptor included, would likely have been capable of extreme feats of endurance, due to the constant flow of oxygenated blood, and slower buildup of lactic acid.
Also, not to nitpick, but Dakotaraptor and Utahraptor didn't coexist, and the animals displayed were not Dakotaraptor.
Do ye know what they were?
@@knockoutnorko7500 Not entirely sure, but given the short arms and very long legs my best guess is that they are some variety of Troodontid.
Edit: Possibly Geminiraptor, which is known from the same formation.
Always cool to see people bring back older builds from the files to compare them. Great video!
This was awesome! I’ve been excited for this series since it was first teased ages ago, and it was a delight to see it appear on my feed!!
This is the kind of stuff I used to love watching on OG Discovery Channel and Animal Planet. Great work. ❤
Yo. This is next level content man. I never would’ve guessed you would be able to make something like this happen. Super awesome, I’m so stoked about how much your channel has grown over the years.
jup. it's a shame the vid's content is BS
@@hazardeur Eh, it depends on the smilodon species and raptor species.
@@FishDaGamer I mean, the Raptor was pretty definitively identified as Utahraptor. Thought it is true there are differences between various species of Smilodon like Populator, Fatalis or Gracilis. The weight given would imply to me that Tierzoo went with Populator.
@@gokbay3057 im saying if they just said "Smilodon vs Raptor", it could go anyway with no specifications
2 years well spent, this is amazing!! Truly top tier content every single time. TierZoo just doesn't disappoint 🤩
EPIC kudos to everyone who worked on this, y'all did a fantastic job 🙌
I hope you keep this style of content up, this is amazing
