  • Toad is often portrayed as a pretty weak and kinda USELESS character, but he definitely has his moments throughout the series where he proves himself.
    Today, we’re looking at Toad’s character in every mainline mario game and ranking him from worthless to elite.

    0:21 The toads that got turned into item blocks give you items, before Peach turns them back to normal. Besides the Toads don’t taunt you. They thank you for saving them before telling you that the princess you’re looking for isn’t around.

      Those Toads technically use the Toadsworth model since they’re too small to actually see and there is no regular Toad model in the game. I think they still count though since they’re obviously meant to represent normal Toads.
      Toads also appear in various minigames, like the slingshot ones where they run back and forth, and the gambling ones where a waiter Toad is serving drinks.

    ...Uh huh.
    The first game, the toads you find in the castles are prisoners. Just because they're a prisoner doesn't mean they know where Peach is. Not to mention without Toads you wouldn't have item blocks. And the prisoners are just telling you that the Princess isn't there. Rather than, y'know, you having to search the castle top to bottom for her before finding out she isn't there. I wouldn't say they're worthless. They're definitely more useful in other games, but not useless. If you disagree... try doing a playthrough of SMB without using any power-ups and get back to me. Second game, same as the first, without Toad you wouldn't have items and would have to waste time searching the castle dungeons for a princess that isn't there.
    Super Mario Bros 2, yeah, elite. He's just as capable as Mario, Luigi, and Peach, being able to take on and beat every stage.
    Mario 3, yeah, pretty helpful sounds about right. Yes, he does make you play games or only give you one of three items... but he also has the warp whistles, and he does at least GIVE you items and chances at the games without charging you anything.
    I was going to argue 'Elite' for Super Mario 64 because they have power stars, but then again, they only have a few between all the Toads in the castle. They are at least very helpful, especially for first time players, with their hints and whatnot.
    "Even royal guards who don't do their job need a break" ...You do know not all Toads are royal guards, right?
    Ah yes, two Toad guards can definitely take on Bowser's battleship if they put their mind to it, clearly. You'd be cowering if Bowser rocked up to the castle in an airship too, buddy. Also, why does Captain Toad go in elite for Galaxy when he is mostly a bumbling idiot who needs to get rescued quite often, or simply stays behind with the ship while his crew does the more dangerous stuff? Although, more nit-picking... but crystals aren't ice.
    ...So let me get this straight. Red Toad in NSMB Wii runs mushroom houses were he gives you items for free... but because of a completely optional side mission, you're saying he's useless. Ok.
    Again, crystals aren't ice.
    I'd say the New Super Mario Bros 2 ones are at least borderline elite, since they straight up let you pick your power-up, as opposed to SMB3 where you have to pick a random one out of three or play matching games or roulette games.
    "Spawned a slew of yukcy fan-art" I can't believe Jeremy is uncultured.
    I'd argue Toad isn't quite as useful as Mario in Super 3D World because of his low jump... but he is playable. Being more useful than Mario, though? No. Strength isn't an issue in 3D World, so all Toad has is speed and a low jump. In a game where jumping is a pretty big thing. As for painting Captain Toad as even more capable... he can't even JUMP. I fail to see how that makes him seem 'more capable'. And also needs you to rescue him which you've docked Toads points for in the past. It's not the most useful Toad has been, since if you count Captain Toad being unable to do anything but walk... it'd be a pretty low 'elite' at most in my book.#
    ...HIs 'brig-ard'? Not how you pronunce that, my dude.
