Those discs suck. B tier is generous 😂

@@JohnMako3vich What disc golf universe are you in??? 😂 No one that can throw with a moderately high arm speed would say any of those suck.
I usually see the vision on these tier lists, but some serious shade is being thrown at like all of the staple new fairway molds. Athena in B, Passion in A, and cap rap in B should all move up one tier

Innova IT was basically supposed to be a Leopard4. Rated 76-21 was originally designed as an 85-21 (re: 18mm rim) but turned out to be too flippy for 8s, and recategorizing it as 76-21 makes it look better on paper.
I got a ledge stone cicada after I lost my Z one and it’s amazing! Great plastic and feel in the hand and it’s a dead straight bomber for me. So good for hitting gaps and won’t turn and burn Definitely A or S tier!
I use the Binx as a forehand only approach disc and I absolutely love it. Lost my 1st one and ordered 2 more immediately.
Ascend disc is actually stable for me and fades when thrown flat on a flat surface. I throw max 270 on flat surface.
The Bear/Stag combo is so good! Once I was bagging a couple of Bears, it wasn't too long before Stags pushed the Craves out of my bag. The Ice Orbit Bears are great, but I love the Tournament Orbit ones; very pretty and beat in to money.
If the Feedback being made overseas bothers you, just know that Cale Leiviska stated the Falcor mold has made it's way stateside. So it wouldn't be outlandish to think the Feedback could follow.
The Proto Athena’s are more stable but some of the newer runs are pretty straight to under-stable
I don’t think I could live without my Captain’s Raptor.
lol so the votum and the grackle are the same mold…. Prodigy’s new plastics are manufactured in china but not by yikun
Ascend done dirty, it was actually has some stability for a -3 turn disc and doesn't burn over for me but gets a gentle turn.
I wonder if the remix troll would end up in B since you put the same disc in two other tiers...
Soda and Jackalope are my two favorites. Waiting for Tone on the Soda.
My fairways are Stalker, TL3, Dynasty and my favorite the Gateway Spear.
Rim widths and (listed speeds): Jackalope 1.9 (8 Speed) Corum 1.8 (7 speed) Grackle 1.9 (7 speed) Tasmania Devil 2.0 (9 speed) Feedback 2.0 (9 speed) FD 1.7 ( 7 speed) Ascend 1.7 (6 speed) Soda 1.8 (7 speed
Have you tried the Loft Silicon? I have one in that purple plastic and omg it’s my new approach disc. Try one @Swanky Disc golf ⛳️
Cicada is awesome. I love it. Great hyzer flip disc for me.
Swanky, Could throw over water, and Dog toy written out just hits different

Don’t sleep on the Mint Freetail, great understable driver
A little sad none of the Lone Star Fairways made the list. Frio, Brazos, Wrangler?
Lat64 Explorer is a 7 5 0 2 that has a true flight number....unless you throw forehand. It turns and fades more understable than the numbers. Maybe that's on me though. Lol! Good review video.
I think the grackle and votum are the same mold, no?
Old school discmania FD is probably very similar to the Innova Dark Rebel Fairway disc.
I've heard hand feel complaints for the Passion so many times in videos, but when I picked one up in my local store, it felt amazing! So far, it seems like a longer crave, a bit less stable than my Hokom Crave. My Star Valkyrie goes farther but has more low speed fade.
You guys need to get your hands on an AGL Money Tree. Disc is sooooo good.
I feel like I have all my fairway slots covered with the classics: Firebird, Teebird, River, and Maul.
Lone Star disc Tex is amazing
That Captions Raptor B tier placement is 🧢🧢🧢 it deserves A tier if not S tier. It's reliable and consistently very overstable no matter what plastic you get it in here are the firebird depending on what type of plastic you get you get different overstability so I have to disagree with that Captions Raptor placement.

This is why you can't trust 850 rated player's opinions. It's purely for entertainment purposes.
AGL Money Tree (9,6,-2,1) needs to be on this list.
Not terrible. I think the yikun plastic is fine but obviously every disc and experience has variance so I’d have the feedback in a probably. Cicada belongs in S. That disc in esp is god tier
Oracle is an incredible disc! Preferably in the alchemy blend
The grackles I’ve thrown are all overstable as heck! Maybe I’ll try another and see if I got a OS run or something
You guys do no research before your videos? Missing many discsflight numbers. Lost of discs in the description would also be helpful; 2:29 cannot find the "gracko" at any retailer. Not sure if no one has stock or if it's amerispeak. Flight numbers and disc list needed.
I think what might make these videos better is talking about each disc beforehand and placing them as an average of your three individual rankings. Just seems kind of randomly biased based on one person’s experience and not a fair tier list.
I got so scared right off the bat, but BIG HUNT nailed it. Everyone should try out a Jackalope in each plastic. It fills every slot from and Eagle to a Teebird. Grab a MINT on the way out.
Jakalope for the win!
The mental gymnastics to put brave in front of the fd
Prodigy Feedback made by Yikun. I find it interesting that you can get a signature disk for 15-16 dollars rather than your average 24 dollars. Discmania active line is also made by Yikun.
Hey, where’s the Temu Star Bat? 😂
I throw about 270 max flat and the jackalope is stable and fades for me .

Depends on your spin rate as well. A local guy throws it on flat at 57mph at 800 rpm and burns it over. I can throw it about 60-65 at 1300rpm and it's very stable and holds the line on hyzer release. Anymore speed and it starts to burn over. That being said, the guy throws it around 300ft of power and it burns. I throw it and it can reach about 400ft before it starts to require a higher launch angle or significantly more nose-up or else it burns.
Maybe its just the courses in my area or maybe im just bad but ive never really felt a need for the super crazy overstable discs like the firebird or cap rap. To me those are for the people who throw hard enough to burn over thunderbirds and discs similar to that. Which definitely is not me. There could also be a difference since im left handed, there's not a whole ton of holes that go insanely to the right. Like they exist but arent common or standard.

Sometimes you have lines where you need to throw a flex FH or flex BH and need to have your disc fight out at a certain distance to proceed toward the pin. Sometimes you need a very overstable air or skip shot around a dogleg left/right. If you don't have a ton of wooded or diverse holes in your area, you probably don't need them.
Internet, help me out! I'm looking for a stable to ever so slight understabel fairway for me. For me Cicada, Passion, s-line fds, are all to understable. Best one I found so far is a lucid MF Escape and would want one more tic stabel. I throw escape to 380ish on open field. 360 on cobtrolled line. Thanks!

Glo Passions (if you can get your hands on one of the blurple ones) are money for that slot. I love Passions just because of the huge amount of plastic options thru Ledgestone and Resistance. I also really like Votum in that slot, in Aura plastic beats into a hyzerflip machine or in Glow plastic stays pretty stable. For a classic option, colour glow Teebird3 is a great choice.
Reid, how could you bring up a Stag and not throw a mention for your boiiiii????
Bear is my go-to fairway. I would argue it’s the best fairway out there.
Whyyy would you do this right before the ozone dropped😭
Didn't see the dream weaver by joker or the Lotus
What about my innova it
Crazy that you're using innova classics as comparison but NOT including them in best of (eagle, firebird, teebird)
Where’s the Gecko? 🤔👀
FD1 is S tier...it's the best new mold from new discmania
Mint discs Diamondback
This list comes out the same day the Ozone from Trash Panda does
