Level Tier list
im just gonna start you know what a tier list is. and this is just MY
OPINION!!
so if you disagree with any of them, tell me where you place them, or your tier list of levels!

16: Rising Tide
I. Hate. This. level. its way to long and boring with you collecting food then just camping the entrance of the nest, nothing good about expect the challenge mode, but Queen of the Hill has the same one and is better in every way, this level is just repetitive and boring and needing to replay it for achievements is so annoying, so yeah. Bottom Spot.

15: Drive them back
Its, fine I guess. its way better than rising tide but just, eh. because tier 5 had 3 levels instead of 2, one of them was gonna be forgettable, and this is the one. Its really just 5.1 again and is just, ok.

14: Challenge 3
One word. Annoying. Its less forgettable than Drive them back because its really freaking hard. even on easy its difficult mainly because of the tier 3 army ants, I get having tier 3 ants on hard and higher but easy? Its WAY to hard for the third challenge, the final one is easier even on the hardest difficulty!

13: Challenge 2
Its challenge 1, but more annoying, thats it.

12: A Bridge to Far
Yeah I know that alot of people are gonna say "Skill issue" but listen to me: This level is repetitive. Your suppose to have Bridges to other spots but saying how little time between
water rising makes it always cut way to close, if there was even just a extra minute between this level would be way better, yeah I may just be slow but this game is hard ok.

11: Challenge 1
Yeah I have nothing to say, it does nothing good or bad.

10: New Home
The first level! its a good tutorial to the game but also WAY to hard unless your playing on easy for the first time, I was new to RTS games and I had to play tier 1 and 2 on easy before full release when I got good, overall the levels and game are hard (Freeplay has alot of deathloops) but overall this is a good starting level!

9: Subjeragion
I do not know how to say or spell this level, also I like the mechanic. Thats it.

8: Queen of the Hill
Its 2.1 but better!!1!
But this level is great, the night protection part is fun and really makes you have fast reaction, yeah the raids are pushovers on easy and medium but dang they are hard on anything else. Good level, but suffers the same thing as 2.1, its so long that replaying it is not that fun later on.

7: The Harvest
The leafcutter levels are super fun, but this is really freaking hard, I like it, but if OOFing the other queen was the goal it would be alot better

6: Last Mound Standing
Ok I hate this level, but I love the mechanics of the termites so yeah.

5: Challenge 4
SPOILERS!!!! This is a great level, Scientist 2 finally takes his truly madman phase here and the actual levels hybrids could ranking of its own, the worst one is the Whip Mantis/Praying Spider because of the mantis one, the Spider one is fine but the amount of health the Mantis has is mad. same this the damage, the other two are ok though, I love the design of the Hermit Scorpions shell, and I still wanna see the tarantula. Hard mode is kinda easy, extreme is mad hard though, and the clever litte ants achievement feels impossible.

4: 5.1
I DONT KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT.
This level was just exiting due to full release, it towers over the other 2 levels in fun and difficulty. every enemy is fund to fight, but termites are way to powerful, (also am I the only one who learned scorpions were spiders from this level?)

3: Cold Blood
Fire ants intro, amazing. The other ants are annoying same with everything in this level but I gotta love it because of how hard it is.

2: Challenge 5
SPOILERS1!!!!!!111!!!!! Hardest choice ever, between 4.2 and this, but this ones story this amazing, the design is amazing, everything, i'm not a fan of the ending because of like, yeah, him being mutated is shocking and like, what!?, i'm still confused. Cause like after the game is like "Yippe! You did it!!" after a guy FREAKING LOST HIS SOUL makes me a bit mad, like Scientist 2 using you to try to become basically god is great, but if we learned that from the start of the level than the motives would put the stakes up way higher, and, still we are just suppose to be like "Cool I beat the game" after that is wild!
The actual level is amazing, the Upmost Chaos of it is so good and the music goes hard. and then the alarm turns, the building freaking BLOWS UP, the rain, thunder, lighting, the hundreds of bugs thrown at us is all to the end where the biggest twist happens. Amazing level. My biggest issue (kind with the game) is how much lag I got. I have a expensive gaming pc and it was running at 2 frames per year, I had to lower the settings multiple times ruining the non-stop part of it, Yeah I was playing on the hardest difficulty and had 300 ants, more because of Fire Ants, but the main problem was the medics revived them so I had 600 Ants, my Pc fans so fast, and the game was laggy, and there is no way to turn down models from PC to n64 models, I fixed it with lowering the settings so it still looked good but played well too. yeah, its really laggy


1: Front Lines
Amazing, top 10, its fun, short but now too short nor to long, perfect goal, not to hard but not to easy, and never repetitive. I love this level, trying to push them back as early as possible is a real challenge but still fun and not annoying to fail, and its not where it has any real way to force it to be long, it has a achievement to beat it quick, but if you aren't experienced it takes longer. If anything. This level is a master piece

So yeah thats my tier list! tell me yours in the comments!
