Hmm.

Fuzzrocious Rat Tail - tried and true, best Rat I've ever used. I've owned a few of them too.

SS/BS Polygrace - I don't even. Big box of amazing. Countless sounds. And, fuck yes I'm gigging with it.

Boss FZ-2 - I like superfuzzes, but this one just gives so much more output than the other ones I've tried that it sounds like my amp is simultaneously melting and exploding.

FHFX ILFFUZZ - It's honestly hard for me to pin down what exactly I like about this pedal the most. But, let's just say, I've never been dissapointed when I turned it on. Very...fuzzy.

Dwarfcraft THEGREATDESTROYARRRR - It's like, the most chainsaw fuzz ever. And, then, if I move any of the knobs, it opens up a portal to a fucking demonzone.

Devi Ever Shoe Gazer - The pinnacle of Devi fuzzes for me. And, now that I play guitar, I find myself missing this one pretty hard these days.

A big muff. - I love them, but I don't really have a preference on muffs. I've owned five. Right now, I'm digging this V6 I just got, but they all just kinda sound like...muffs. Am I insane?

Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler - It's just so big sounding without having a huge mid scoop. And, the blend is neat (never thought I'd say that). AND SUCH OUTPUT.

SS/BS Fuck OD - Okay, fuck you, it counts. Turn up all the knobs all the way. Boom, one of my favorite fuzz tones.

Creepy Fingers Foxx Tone Machine - The first fuzz I ever got. The only "octave up" fuzz I really liked. I played countless shows with just that pedal. And, I miss it.

Damnit, yeah I totally forgot about Surrender Dorothy. It made me take a step back and look at how I was playing guitar and looping. One of the first pedals to do that

Ahhh jeebz...

SSBS - 4545 - like, come on. Crackling and horrifying and heavy and I HAVE 2 (one more on the way)
SSBS - TAFM - the OG run had the craziest feedback, new ones are like a Swiss Army knife of fuzz.
Mountainking - Megalith - speaker warping heavy-as-balls. Moar heavy switch. Shit :joy:
Fairfield - Unpleasant Surprise - another jack of fuzz; thin and tinny or bass destruction in tee-tines package
Devi/ MK - SMBH - probably the best no nonsense bass laden fuzz. One of the thickest sounds I've heard.
Super fuzz - Audio Monk Fuzzpotion, old PCB design, SSBS Superpuzzle (WANT, haven't tried), whatever - super fuzz is some tits. Cool interplay with guitar volume and tone controls
Muffs - Bluebeard, Supercollider, BAT Pharaoh, whatever. Sludge it up and break your face.
Iron Ether - Oxide - it's whack, yo. Gawjusssssssss and morphy. And dem heaviez = CHECK.
Iron Ether - FrantaBit - so it's a SSR, screw off. It's intensely versatile and the digital-ish fuzz you can get out of it is like a laser party. For your tits.
DOD Death Metal Distortion - CRINGE - roll your volume back, tone off and BAM the sludges ye be wading in. Awesome fuzzzz toan.

These are ones I've had the most time with. Shit like the MK Heavy Machine/ Magnetar which I've had little time with or haven't even tried would probably be on here. I like my bass. And I like it to be heavy.
