    Fun Fact: The Rhino's armor is so effective, that there's an outdated meta from the human playerbase of crafting their own armor from the loot of defeated Rhinos. This tactic was especially common in the Han faction until more easily obtainable harvestable drops were discovered.

      Fun Fact: The Rhino's armour is so effective, it has survived a myriad of metas and patches. Not to mention that they don't really have any predators. As much as I love TZ content, this one felt half baked like the cheetah one. He didn't have all the basic facts (Rhinos can actually see pretty well), and the final rank felt biased when compared to the match up spread shown earlier. The video felt rushed in general. I'd rather quality over quantity TZ, if you happen to read this.

      I think the giant panda, cheetah and rhino suffer the most from the misinformation though. Almost every claim about them being low-tier can be debunked pretty easily, and has even been done by actual zoologists.

    I feel like the griefing done by human players in the poachers clan should have been mentioned in this video. Without that, putting rhinos in D tier is unwarrented.
    Rhinos being vulnerable to intimidation is not nearly enough of a weakness to justify their placement, as being scared off does little to negatively impact their playthrough, as they are herbivores. In fact, it prevents them from taking even more unnecessary risks than they already do.

    I’m a little mixed on this one. On one hand, I agree completely that rhino weaknesses are easily exploitable, and that friendly fire is a huge issue with their strategy. However, having a one sided fight against lions, and holding their own against elephants, hippos, and crocodiles has to be worth something.
    If the human player base didn’t grief them so hard, maybe rhinos could have a more dominant spot in the meta, but the human player base loves being toxic for the sake of it, while also getting more premium currency out of it.

    • @checker297

      imo it should be even lower, the fact it has extremely low intelligence means it will always be competing for food and its young are extremely vulnerable even if its extremely hard to kill an adult. It also means it cant effectively group up as a team. This isnt helped by the fact it reproduces slowly. It seems like a build which is optimised around either making it to be either an alpha male or bust, or female and accept massive childbirth risk for life. Just is not ever going to be viable, similar to how pandas are dying out because they just dont wanna bang.

    • @breloommaster12
      @breloommaster12 Год назад +19

      The rhino's bad eyesight and low intelligence often offsets the advantages that its tanky build would have otherwise brought:
      - You're so bulky that you should be able to win fights and control territory right? Well too bad, you're so blind that you fail to recognize your surroundings to the point where you attack trees and rocks, or you lose resolve too easily in otherwise favourable interactions and get chased off.
      - You're so tanky that you should have little trouble with escort missions right? Nope, your poor eyesight and intelligence means you cannot party up with other players to ease your burden, it means you cannot effectively control a defensive zone around yourself, and worst of all, it means you are so easily baited away from the escort or even get baited into teamkilling it yourself.

      You're really only judging combat when you're using OoC hacks.

Between grazing, constantly managing your sensory debuffs and chat aggroing you, and dealing with everything including humans? Rhinos aren't even mid tier, and that's without including the lack of a rear attack option.

      Kinda wish this one was better researched though. The argument on bulk makes no sense, for instance. The bulk of modern rhino's still keeps them save from predators, so its still useful. Not to mention the short-faced bear and woolly rhino didn't even overlap. Plus, he mentioned the whole thing about eyesight. But rhino's having bad eyes was already debunked in 2008.

But the bulk isn't really that useful because of their already tough and thick skin. It still isn't as useless as he made it seem but you get the idea. The short faced bear and Woolley rhino indeed never crossed paths with each other you are 100% correct on that one.

While they can certainly serve as a lookout, I've heard claims that oxpecker players tend to prioritize eating engorged ticks (i.e. ticks that have already done as much damage as possible to their hosts) in order to maximize the experience they gain from each tick they eat. I've even heard some claims that oxpecker players will peck at open wounds on their "perches," slowing the rate at which they recover from said wounds.

      The issue is, some of the content mentioned in this video are proven to be untrue or flat out misinformation
      Examples:
      - Rhinos are not as blind as assumed, they have an average of 200m range of vision and are on par with cat vision, while being better than a rabbit's. 200m vision range is also alot better than a majority of humans today (which wear spectacles).
      - Low intelligence is not proven at all, and the rhino has been doing fine for millions of years charging at things to make sure they don't get near it. Predators distracting animals to get at their babies is a common strategy used against elephants, wildebeest, deer, antelopes, etc.
      - Rhinos are not "exceptionally suited" to cold climates, the wooly rhino is the same size as an average white rhino and it did not encounter any short-faced bears. This can be easily googled or read from Wikipedia, but TZ still got it wrong.
      - The Ice Age was also not more dangerous than modern day, most of the Ice Age animals are an extension of modern Africa's animals but with more biodiversity.
      - Rhinos didn't evolve into Paraceratherium, Paraceratherium comes from a way earlier diverging branch called Rhinocerotoidea. Early ancestors of Paraceratherium resemble horses superficially more than resembling today's rhinos.
      This is not a good outlook when you have a large viewerbase and can easily affect scicomm, when information easily found on Wikipedia is also gotten wrong.

    Whist I agree that they are a bit lower on the tier list just 2 quick things and that we’re worth mentioning. Rhinos have an excellent sense of both hearing and smell, with evidence to suggest that can can distinguish between others of there own kind and other predator species. While not enough to set off bad eyesight and low intelligence I do believe it mitigates that disadvantage somewhat. This along with the fact that there only bad matchup is with the largest land animal in the game and humans makes me believe rhinos at least deserve high C tier.

    This is an awesome presentation! Humor often serves a VERY SERIOUS PURPOSE. It allows the presenter to extensively cover an in-depth educational topic, while still holding the interest of the audience.

    Guys, please, support the official petition for TierZoo to make a tier list of parasite insects! Ticks, mentioned in this video, are absolutely fascinating, it's a whole shadow meta that influences more conventional, "sizable" builds immensely!

    Glad you mentioned the armoured skin. It's effective enough to be a prized shield making material throughout India and East Africa.
    Would you believe, by the way, that Paleoloxodon, a prehistoric elephant, may have outweighed Paraceratherium?
    As ever, fun video, great content.

    Rhinos are definitely a force to be reckoned with in the African and Asian servers! 🦏 Their armor is next level, making them nearly untouchable in hard mode. Sure, they've got a few counters like humans and elephants, but honestly, who doesn't? I'm leaning more towards a solid "B" tier for these armored tanks. 🛡💪 Also, kudos to TierZoo for making biology feel like a thrilling RPG adventure! 🌿🎮 Keep the educational fun coming! 🌟

    Rhinos are a great example of how it's just as important to pick your debuff as your buffs
