    5) That "could've won" moment with the double golden mushroom and getting hit by your own green shell on a misclick is so painful to watch but I can't help myself to chuckle too...

    15:47 while I don't own the DLC, it's clear that they have a much lower quality than the regular ones, as there's not much variety in the detailing and textures.
    They reuse textures a lot and the track also seems to be way wider for some reason? Making you feel smaller than in original, and which has a better sense of scale.
    I have played the DLC via online however.

    I feel like that last race may exemplify how the lower speed of the combo can have a psychological advantage when frontrunning. Cuz everyone expects a frontrunner to be moving pretty quickly, combine that with the lower traction resulting in some wider turn radiuses and you just have a recipe for people to get trailed while drifting behind you.

    I understand your sentiment with “bad can be hype” but I personally look at it from the other angle. Someone’s favorite kart is the Tri-Speeder. Or the P-Wing. Or they really like Monster tires. And sure, they can use those parts, but at quite the disadvantage then they’d normally have. I’m of the opinion that every part should be good so that people can choose what they want to use, without having to worry about bad stats.

    @tokothegecko Před 10 měsíci +3

    Would you say that Lemmy/Baby Rosalina are the worst characters in general? Like, if you could use them with any other combo, would they still be the worst characters, or would that go to a heavier character?

    • @Shortcat321
      @Shortcat321  Před 10 měsíci +3

      That's an interesting question. I think that Lemmy on biddybuggy is useable but highly lacking in weight, and so slow that he cant make comebacks. But he can frontrun.
      Bowser on a fast combo has a little more trouble frontrunning, but can definitely bag and make comebacks with the speed, which is a viable opening strategy on many tracks.
      It's just my guess, but I think Lemmy is worse than bowser overall. Bowser biddy > Lemmy biddy, and then Bowser steel driver > Lemmy steel driver.

  • @TheFrozenMonkeyKing
    @TheFrozenMonkeyKing Před 10 měsíci +2

    I've been wondering for a while, how do you anticipate the shocks?

    • @Shortcat321
      @Shortcat321  Před 10 měsíci +3

      Luck, mostly. Also, the longer you wait, the more likely a shock comes. The most important time to dodge is starting on lap 3. I held my items on sunset wilds because they don't serve me much benefit until the start of lap 3 where the shortcuts are, so I used it there. On sweet sweet canyon, I used my star after the cannon since shocking someone in a cannon is pointless, and then if I didn't dodge, I'd just hope my next item extends my invincibility. On bone dry dunes, that was pure luck and I was not expecting it.
      If your opponents are skilled, you also want to watch for how many people are in a star/bullet. If too many people will dodge, the shock holder will wait. If nobody will dodge, you can activate your invincibility to be the only person dodging, and the shock holder may think it's a good time to use it. If your opponents are not that skilled, I promise you the shock is almost completely random haha

    Your last course got me wondering... Is there any map where you should be more aggressive? Or does it not matter?

    • @Shortcat321
      @Shortcat321  Před 10 měsíci +11

      In general defensive play is better. When you hit someone, you pass 1 person. But when someone hits you, usually 3+ people pass you. And being in 1st place is so valuable because you stay away from the vortex of spam items.
      I don't think there is any track where you should consistently be aggressive. But there are good aggressive plays to look out for. For example, backing a bomb on a narrow path or around a blind corner. Throwing a red shell right before a double item box. Putting a banana in a narrow shortcut like the end of cloudtop cruise.
