Roundstart Species tier list

Based on how good I think they are conceptually, not on ballance or the type of people that play them.

what makes lizards so high, theyre just an animal like moths

[Notgonnabreaktherule]

i agree with it except i think ethereal should be ahead of plasmaman
mainly since about 70% of plasmamen i met were complete shitters

[massa]

i love them all but i find ethereals to be visually jarring sometimes and i find plasmeme names to be... lacking in expressability? fartium brapium cumium whateverium it's still some kind of material and a random ass number

Lizard people are classic sci-fi, they fit into the setting the most.

But for a less opinion-based take, there is a difference. Lizards people are more like reptilian humanoids, which feel distinct and alien.
Moth people, on the other hand, are based on a real and specific animal species. They aren't just LIKE moths, they ARE moths. It makes them less believable to me.

Yeah, I agree with that. If I was counting the quality of the player I would also probably bump moth down a peg, and send felinids to the shadow realm.

Not to say that all moths and plasmamen are bad, there are definitely some good players, but I would say that the average quality is worse.

I think conceptually and visually ethereals are higher then plasme n for me, for two major reasons:

Aesthetically ethereals have an infinitely higher number of options. Energy people who can act as literal conduits is also more interesting to me than on-fire-skeleton-man. The naming conventions are also more diverse. I’m mainlining a lightbulb right now so yes I am heavily biased.

I agree with your analysis of moths vs lizardmen, but I firmly believe that plasmen belong in B tier despite being a classic.

Pretty accurate tiers. Can’t say I’d change anything

[Super Aggro Crag]

i put moths lower just based on personal preference moths seem to be super inconsistent and i can't tell the difference between them except like, swanni the hair moth.

Moth mad.

what makes lizards so high, theyre just an animal like moths

Lizards are classic in a way the others aren't just from how long they existed in code but inaccessible to normal players

They also have a bit more fluff development in terms of culture, biology (and relevant mechanics like dietary needs and temperature response), etc.

[InfiniteGalaxies]

moth lower, because they have a tendency to hug anyone, even if they are a murderbone antag and are basically valid

as a plasmeme enthusiast this seems fair

moths are inherently evil.

[Farquaar]

moths are inherently evil.

[cacogen]

moths are inherently evil.

yeah that seems correct

[mindstormy]

D is not low enough for Felinids
