How would you sort the Doom 2 monsters?

[Griffonki]

As in who is low tier, mid tier, high tier?

[Sneezy McGlassFace]

S tier - wolf ss, sergeant, spectre, and spider mastermind

A tier - Archvile and arachnotron

B tier - baron of hell

C tier - caco demon, cyberdemon

D tier - demon (pinkie)

E tier - n/a

F tier and bellow - everyone else

Wolfies are SS tier.

[Doomy__Doom]

SMM & Cyber are high tier, Lost Souls are low tier, everyone else is mid.

 

Arachnotrons could arguably be low tier without metallic parts, but they wouldn't be deserving a "-tron" suffix in that case.

Zombiemen and shotgunners are mid tier?

[G19Doom]

Doom:

 

Low tier: former humans, imp, pink demon/spectre, lost soul

 

Mid tier: Cacodemon, Baron of Hell

 

High tier: Cyberdemon, Spider Mastermind

 

Doom II (above stays the same):

 

Low tier: SS Guard

 

Mid tier: Hell Knight, Arachnotron, Pain Elemental, Mancubus, Revenant, Arch-Vile

 

High tier: Icon of Sin

[Professor Hastig]

Low tier: all former humans except the chaingunner, imp, demon, spectre, lost soul

Mid tier: Cacodemon, Hell Knight

High tier: Baron of Hell, Mancubus, Arachnotron

Boss tier: Cyberdemon, Spider Mastermind

Special tier: Revenant, Chaingunner, Pain Elemental, Arch Vile

 

I intentionally rate these 4 differently because just going by their health is not enough. What they share is a disproportionately strong attack that requires special care when using them.

[Zulk RS]

Low Tier (low health; very common): All zombies, Imps, Demons, Specters, Lost Souls

Mid Tier (Medium-high health; moderately common;): Hell Knights, Barons, Mancubus, Arachnotron, Revenant, Cacodemon

Boss Tier(Medium-high health; uncommon; may have some special attack/ ability that makes them high priority):

Cyber Demon, Spider Mastermind, Archvile, Pain Elemental

[Knor964]

 

Low Tier: Former Human, Imp, Lost Soul, Demo, Spectre & Wolfenstein SS
Mid Tier: Cacodemon, Arachnotron, Hell knight, Mancubus, Former Sergeant & Pain Elemental

High Tier: Baron of Hell, Revenant, Heavy weapons dude, Arch vile, Cyber demon and Spider mastermind

[DynamiteKaitorn]

Going by how difficult I think the enemies are:

 

NIGHTMARE! - Former Commando (AKA Chaingunner) - Archvile - Cyberdemon - BARRELS

Ultra Violence! - Baron of Hell - Revenant - Spider Mastermind - Icon Of Sin

Hurt me plenty! - Former Sergeant - Awachnotwon UwU - Hell Knight - Mancubus

Hey! Not too rough! - Spectre - Cacodemon

I'm too young to die! - Former Human - Imp - Pinky Demon - Lost Soul - Pain (in the arse) Elemental - SS (if they count) - Commander Keen

Missed 3 enemies

Looking through all the lists posted so far, it seems the threat level of Commander Keen is off the chart, hence not appearing anywhere.
