    This was a very rough tournament

      Indeed it was. At least you got in the top 10 and Justin got in the top 20, which is more than I can say for Alex and me.

      I already covered this in my big timestamp comment, so I'm just going to take this opportunity to say two things.
      1. Get well ASAP.
      2. If we had been in the same lobby, I might have done something I would never otherwise do. If the lead course of the Cherry Cup was an option and you're one of my opponents, we do have a score or two to settle by racing there. Maybe we'll get that opportunity in the 150cc tournament. Just don't expect me to ever stop hating that specific course.

    This. Was. Pain. It's almost like Alex went AWOL and got Nagato to host the stream in his place. Welp... On to my commentary.
    0:29
    I expect 150cc to be more competitive, but I doubt anything will top this tournament's insanity without also being 200cc.
    1:01
    You're joining my lobby. We got what we wanted in the pre-tournament chat. 😄
    2:17
    Alex was a menace tonight, which only adds credibility to my opening statements.
    2:24
    If it makes you feel better, my "Australian Rat" build fell off on that exact turn all 3 laps this race.
    3:11
    I had a podium while you were spectating, and we end up 8 and 9 here.
    5:03
    I said it in commentary on Alex's stream (in the post-stream comments). I'm saying it here.
    Oh no! We suck! A COM Bowser Jr. beat us!
    5:52
    Alex went "fire fire, light the fire" on both of us, but ended up eventually hitting himself instead.
    7:01
    This race at Paris ended up being the best one for both of us, as my only better finish than the 4th seen here (at least that I remember) was the 3rd I achieved through sheer item luck while you were spectating.
    Also, because of the fact I was one race ahead, I got shuffled out of your room after this race.
    8:45
    That was a great race between you and zelda, which unfortunately for you went in her favor.
    If I had to guess how she finished ahead of you, it's because you didn't try "fire fire, light the fire" when you had a Fire Flower in hand on the final straightaway.
    9:04
    Since I had no Animal Crossing races in this tournament, we're still in different lobbies.
    9:28
    Looks like, aside from the glider (I was using Paraglider, as I went full "Australian Rat"), Matthew and I used the same build. It even looks like he and I both used Azure Roller tires, but I can't tell with 100% certainty what his tires are as of yet.
    12:17 and 12:59
    *M O R T I S* 🪦
    14:34
    I don't know. What I do know is, the one time Shroom Ridge came up for me, I chose Sky Garden instead.
    15:23
    Oh good. We're in the same lobby again. Sadly, it only lasts for this one race, as this is #8 for you, which means you're getting shuffled out again as soon as it ends.
    As for "focus", you act as if I'm using Tour Guide when the fact is I went "Australian Rat", courtesy of Hakos Baelz. 🐀
    16:52
    What was *THAT* air? 👀
    17:53
    Even with my focus, I still finish 9th. That's my lack of skill on 200cc on full display.
    Oh, and this also bears commentary. Oh no! A COM Morton beat us! We suck again!
    20:02
    All right. Who chose violence?
    In tomorrow's 150cc tournament, I may be tempted to go with Fuwawa or Mococo (probably Mococo to build Mini-Turbos better) if Baby Park is available.
    (in FuwaMoco's synced gremlin twin voice while they were playing Typing of the Dead) Extreme violence.
    21:26
    I'm guessing we're still in different lobbies, since you didn't make a "Tour Guide" crack aimed at me this time. 😆
    23:19
    Nice win. This is definitely your best race of the tournament. 👏
    I still say Paris is better for the two of us combined since we were 2nd and 4th in the same race.
    Oh, and nice cringe 4 seconds later (which Matthew timestamped already). Only Father Boo and Pauline remain unaffected by Justin cringe in that driver stat class, and Pauline didn't even start racing until Wave 6. 🤣
    24:02
    *M O R T I S* 🪦
    24:24
    Nice save.
    Hey. If I call out the *M O R T I S* when you fall off, I gotta give credit where it's due as well. Right?
    24:56
    Oh wow. Three Shy Guys, and one of them was a COM. I didn't expect that in a room where players were using Shy Guy as their driver.
    25:05
    To the Mall, boys!
    27:19
    Jugem in Biddybuggy with Monster tires?!? 👀
    Even if that's a COM build, it's still something I don't remember seeing before.
    28:14
    More "fire fire, light the fire". A song lyric that has since become a Hololive Advent meme is making its presence felt all over this tournament, and it's probably the best part about the tournament if your races at Paris (the first one there) and Madrid are taken out of the equation.
    29:27
    Goriya's favorite course. Even more so than Hyrule Circuit. GRUMBLE, GRUMBLE... 🍖
    31:45
    For a moment, I thought we were in the same lobby again because I remembered playing at Big Blue today. Then I remembered I *DIDN'T* play at Big Blue in this tournament, which means my Big Blue race was in the morning while watching Okayu (also from Hololive) and trying to join in her tournament.
    36:55
    But Justin. This is *ROSALINA'S* Ice World, and you're playing as Rosalina. You really should have seen this coming.
    39:13
    Since I had been spectating the previous race, I was hoping we'd be in the same lobby this time, but then you got shuffled out and I was left with Waffles for my final 4 races, with NEON getting added to the equation for my final 3 races. With the tournament I was already having, getting two offensive-minded players to close out my tournament was *NOT* my idea of fun.
    44:42
    What the beep is Jugem thinking with this drop point? *SUS!* 👀
    45:36
    With NEON getting into your lobby here, my 24 races have clearly been completed, as he was in my 24th race. It probably goes without saying, but I'm seriously considering retiring from 200cc after my tournament. As I said at the end of my commentary on a post-stream comment for Alex, there's only one reason I can think of for continuing to play 200cc, and it's not even remotely close to being family-friendly. Let's just say the M at the end of a certain 4-letter acronym is involved.
    45:56
    If I heard you correctly, it sounds like you're contemplating the exact same thing I just mentioned in commentary on the previous timestamp.
    46:37
    I picked this one earlier in the tournament, but Shigeru didn't send me here. In my defense, the alternatives were Yoshi Circuit (where I had already played, and where Shigeru ended up sending me when I picked Melody Motorway) and Koopa City, both of which are nightmarish when it comes to virtually every turn. Had this been before Wave 5, I'd have gone Random with that selection, but you already know why I can't go Random anymore.
    47:09
    I was sneezing through this part of the race the first time I watched. I guess my nose could sense the bull, as my "I, Robot" "allergy" kicked in here.
    50:32
    Actually, you held on for 19th. Meanwhile, Alex and I were both unable to crack the top 20. I told Alex that he had some questionable plays while I just suck at 200cc and that's why neither he nor I made the top 20.
    I wouldn't be surprised if you're at least in the top 15 in the 150cc tournament, but it will take a miracle for me to get back in the top 20. After the things Alex was doing in this tournament, I have a special build waiting for him in the 150cc tournament. I would have gone with From Indonesia with Love in retaliation, but he might be expecting that, so I'm thinking Pipe Frame, Wood tires, and Parafoil glider this time around. Regardless, the plan of Shy Guy on Master Cycle with Cushion tires and Peach Parasol glider is being shelved until 2024. Or I could bring it back on one of your weekend streams. Alex (along with several other players, none of whom I can remember with any degree of certainty) must pay for this tournament.

      It started off painful. No question. There's not much I can point out as exclusively my fault either, having a huge issue with lag (which seems to be a lot worse since Wave 6 dropped and I'm not the only one who has said this). Savage tournament.
      0:29 It will be more competitive. There's reason to expect the number of participants will almost double. 150cc can be extremely chaotic. I just hope the griefers stay on the sidelines where they belong.
      1:01 Let's go Remy!
      2:17 Trailed, bumped... You name it. Alex really was a menace!
      2:24 That one really wasn't my fault... lol
      3:11 If only we knew what was to come...
      5:03 Knowing that I lost to a bot makes it sting more than normal.
      5:52 YOU ARE NOT FIRING ME ALEX. BETTER YET, FIRE YOURSELF LOL
      7:01 2 & 4! Can't argue with those results.
      8:45 There was no way I was going to be able to hit her, so I didn't bother trying. Spamming fire may have thrown me off my line and cause me to fall off the track. Just another example of getting useless items that can't help me period. (now that I think about it, I didn't pull many red shells at all throughout the tournament). Ultimately I lost because of my lack of Mini Turbo. If you didn't know, your Mini Turbo stat also determines how much boost you get off of trick jumps. That's what did me in.
      9:04 And one of the better races. Must've felt good to see Resetti get starred lol
      9:28 Shy Guy Biddybuggy is Matthew's main. Probably nothing will get him off that thing.
      12:17 & 12:59 Don't remind me... Its especially disappointing because I made it through ok on lap 1.
      14:34 "It was at this moment he knew... He f*cked up." LOL
      15:23 Actually my lobby shuffling was out of whack because I bailed on lobbies to avoid Ice Ice Outpost (twice) and DK Summit. Considering how the tournament was trending, I was not going to play on tracks that would be a guaranteed 8th place or worse. And I couldn't resist making the joke. I know how much you like those wigglers lol
      16:52 I don't know what made Rosalina go so fast and get so much air. That was insane
      17:53 Morton beat us, and he got 3rd!? WTF. LOL
      20:02 I don't remember who picked it, but I placed higher here than I would've on DK Summit (alluding to the ditching lobbies I mentioned prior). The one time I will take this track.
      21:26 Nope. lol, didn't even think of it. I was in focus mode for this one.
      23:19 It was my best by far. You can actually tell I was the one who practiced this track compared to my opponents.
      And I'm not going to apologize for the cringe. I was so happy with that win. Also, unlike Link, I said it with a straight face. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!? LOL I think Father Boo and Pauline are safe from the cringe. lol
      24:02 I thought I was DONE after this fall.
      24:24 That was a close one wasn't it? I'm amazed I kept Rosalina on the track.
      24:56 That can happen in tournaments like this.
      25:05 ROCK ON! WE'RE GOING TO THE MALL! TO THE MALL BOIS!
      27:19 I figured you would've seen a bot use something like that by now...
      28:14 At least I was invincible for this one lol
      29:27 GRUMBLE GRUMBLE. I was grumbling after the game gave me absolutely no help with my items until it was way too late.
      31:45 Lost your mind, perhaps? lol
      36:55 I don't care! It was the worst track on the board and I didn't want it lol (of course Waffles gets what he wants)
      39:13 At this point my lobby shuffling was going to stabalize after bailing on DK Summit earlier. Speaking of NEON, did he even pop up in lobbies against Jeff or Tiffany at all? He seems to shuffle a lot. Hmmm... What the heck. Here I am getting beaten up by both.
      44:42 Not even remotely fair. The race is rigged! RIGGED!
      45:36 200cc causes a lot of stress when you don't play it often.
      45:56 I just don't want to put in the effort to learn everything on 200cc. The nuances of 150cc are tough enough. I don't want any more on my plate.
      46:37 It wasn't my pick. I believe I went with Sydney, a track you know, I don't suck at. NEON picked Melody Motorway.
      47:09 I am done talking about this race. I was furious with how this one ended.
      50:32 I was expecting to drop and have the score required be 202+ to place. Somehow that didn't happen. I hope we don't see 200cc again for a while.
      I'm bringing a very angry Daisy with me for 150cc. It has been a long time since I've used her in these tournaments, and she was banned in 3 of the last tournaments I played. And since Alex was a savage, he better watch out for me this time as well. Oh, and btw, players like Speedydave and Mario Fan are ALSO on my list dare they cross my path, as both irritated me throughout the tournament. I'm with you on this one Remy. Alex, and several others, WILL PAY FOR THEIR SINS.
      WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE, ALL THAT WILL BE LEFT ARE THEIR BATTERED CARCASES. REST. IN. PEACE!
      Alright, let me get out of Undertaker mode. Thanks for the commentary as usual. lol

      Since I know we both just want to put this tournament behind us ASAP, the only follow-up commentary I have this time is about the specific build I'm planning on bringing to tonight's 150cc tournament. You may have noticed I didn't mention a driver. That's because the driver for "From Indonesia with Love" is carried over to the new build I mentioned, which is one of the ways I intend to make Alex pay when you factor in that *Father Boo* drives From Indonesia with Love. 👻😆👑
      The full build I'm planning on using tonight came from yet another Hololive talent, Ririka. I got a lot of fun ideas the day I saw 12 Hololive talents (13, if you count Fuwawa and Mococo separately) get together for Mario Kart about a week and a half ago. 😄
      While I'm on that topic, there was a great moment on Bae's perspective at Koopa Cape (I had to watch Bae's VOD because I was watching FuwaMoco when it was live, and I couldn't hear Bae on FuwaMoco's perspective during this part).
      Bae: "Come on, give me Bullet Bill."
      FuwaMoco: **runs over Bae with a Bullet**
      Bae: **gasps** "Not like that."
      Enjoy.
