Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled BEST SHORTCUTS | TOP 5 CTR BEST SHORTCUTS | Use Them Or Else!

[@TheViperian]

Shortcuts are chosen based on difficulty, reliability & advantage. WHICH ARE YOU FAVORITE SHORTCUTS? 😄 P.S. Do you like the little bonus after #2? :P

[@freds2150]

I think Blizzard Bluff should be first place.

[@noniboy9802]

I realized that party when I hit the seals and missed the shortcut

[@ilickkeyboards8353]

The cactus hologram cut on electron avenue

[@HibernatingBears]

Love this tip video. It helps because of the following: 1. You've shown side-by-side, the difference in time it makes by taking the shortcut vs not. 2. Cutting your video short enough to show just 5 tips at a time so we can go practice 5. If you'd shown all shortcuts in a single video, it would've been overwhelming. If I may suggest: if you could show the comparison like you did @3:34, but for all tricks, that would really help us (newbies like myself) visualize to the full extent of how much of a difference it makes.

[@godlesshp6188]

Papu's Piramide is not so difficult. No need timing and sacred fire neither. At the same time, Electronic Avenue one is more difficult than you think. I agree with Polar Pass shortcut, which is the hardest in the game after second shortcut in Blizzard Bluff. You need Sacred/Blue fire and perfect timing. Honorable mention to the Hot Sky Airways Shortcut, the one at the end of the lap. I'm ad advanced player (but no pro player), i can beat Oxide in time trial, but Hot Sky Airways Shortcut Is the only one I've never taken perfectly.

[@SeddieWeddie]

You actually don’t need blue fire for the polar pass jump

[@TheViperian]

Yea, very strict timing required lol

[@freds2150]

@@TheViperian I thought it was frame-perfect till I pulled it of

[@Wolflight21]

@@freds2150 a boost right before the jump seals the deal for acceleration, speed should be able to do it easily

[@keris3920]

You also don't need sacred fire for the blizzard bluff lake jump

[@ctrdexter9369]

... that's right you don't need blue flame. I did a 2:05 on this track taking this on lap 1 also without blue flame. Check out my dev time video

[@madeline_from_celeste_real]

My list (I suck at ctr and this is my opinion not yours) 5. Sewer Speedway 4. Electron Avenue (I am bad at the turning.) 3. Blizzard Bluff (becomes easy after a little practice.) 2. Polar Pass. 1. Dragon Mines. Screw this shortcut. Honorable Mentions. (6-8) 6. Crash Cove. Really... 7. Mystery Caves. 8. Hot Air Skyway. This is ranked on only difficulty btw. Peace =)

[@yourlocalcashregister1123]

Ever since I had to get the Beenox crate in Sewer Speedway I've been getting better at the shortcut and have been using it more often

[@snailgirl6]

*gasp* New intro!!! Thanks for the tips vids; I just beat (that cheater) Oxide for the first time last night!!! Sewer Speedway: I tend to be afraid to try this one, but I'm starting to take other shortcuts to build my driving confidence.... Out of Time: I've found these on my own!!! Still learning how to do the second one constantly though... Blizzard Bluff: The fence is evil.... Polar Pass: This one (even the regular one) is GAMECHANGING!!! I'm trying to cut the corner bit by bit.... Hyper Spaceway: I've seen that bit of road down there on my own!!! I guess it is supposed to be kind of hidden?

[@TheViperian]

Nice! Oxide now has a new opponent in town 😂 new intro took some time to make Haha. Yea some shortcuts are hidden, if u found it yourself, u are one observant person!

[@AshoreNevermore]

I was consistently getting over the fence shortcut for a little while. I think there's a hidden "ramp" in the snow that makes your jump higher, because I've gone way over the fence before. But... I can't find it anymore. All the other shortcuts aren't too bad.

[@freds2150]

It's behind the middle of the fence there is a hidden ramp

[@vivianzl2983]

Love your new intro! Looks cool😁

[@StigmaLotus]

Definitely agree with Blizzard’s fence jump. Funny though, I’ve yet to see the average player land the river jump in 3 laps.

[@ahmednada4077]

The best short cut is in spyro circuit It doesn't need any blue of sacred fire It is very easy.

[@ittupelkele9918]

Blizzard bluff jump shortcut can actually be done without sacred fire but you need a lot of reserves to do it

[@TheViperian]

Reserves don't affect your speed though, dont think that's how it works? Do you have a clip of someone doing it without sacred fire?

[@ittupelkele9918]

@@TheViperian Well then you need a PERFECT drift to do it but I am pretty sure you get a little bit of speed from reserves but I am not sure though, but it is possible

[@Vulcanfaux]

Yeah I've only dont that fence hop once... it's too risky to attempt if you are not good at it. Blue fire also makes that hyper space way shortcut safer. Running out of blue fire mid air is not an issue cuz you will still make it. Running out of sacred fire mid air on the same short cut is scary. High chance of you failing it.

[@TroboTicTac]

I wish mirror mode was in online matchmaking so it has more of a purpose and online can get mixed up and will be more skill because it's not just muscle memory

[@TheViperian]

Yea, extra variety online would be great!

[@dws18]

bro how do you only have 620 subscribers tho I think you deserve way more thanks to all of these tips and tricks your helping all of us newbies and even some of us veterans out with like seriously your doing a grate job man keep up to good work and keep these tips and tricks coming! 👍

[@TheViperian]

thank you dws!! I'm gaining subs at a decent rate now, I should be able to hit 1k subs soon :D I try my best to make the best & informative CTR video, im so glad you enjoyed them

[@demonbrother4147]

And now look at him 1.2K subs in the space of a month

[@SonicSmashBro]

The Sewer Speedway shortcut is mainly difficult due to a physics difference compared to the original. Speed does NOT factor into your Jump Height in this version.

[@TheViperian]

Yeap, mastering the strict timing is key

[@SonicSmashBro]

@@TheViperian In the original, the thing I mentioned earlier gave it leniency, making it super consistent. With that not being here, you now HAVE to hit the trick jump.

[@Loveilis]

"Watch til the end" Me: Immediately skips all the self ad and subscribe recommendations

[@faizmag1602]

I would like to correct something you said about polar pass. Blue fire is not actually required (but the shortcut is extremely difficult without it) You can actually make the full shortcut you showed in spot number 2 with yellow fire

[@TheViperian]

yeap someone already told me in the comment section. Timing is very tight too without blue fire, so may as well go for blue fire hahaha

[@elsenorpato1485]

And how do you know that in hyper skiway the shortcut is an shortcut and not the normal way?

[@Legend-rl7nx]

I think hyper spaceway's shortrcut is easy, meaby cuz i've played crash nitro kart before nitro fueled 2 years

[@TheViperian]

it was hard for me because i didn't play CNK before, so it was really new to me 😂

[@yeah3032]

Blue Fire is not required to get the polar pass shortcut.

[@klein8424]

Where is Toxic Burger? Those deserve to be here

[@TheViperian]

this is an old video before it came out

[@SNC2319]

INconsistency, It’s INconsistency.

[@TheViperian]

Oh no that's a typo 😂 thanks for pointing this out

[@SNC2319]

Not a problem.

[@o1aa3hjuqe]

For number 3 u don't need sacred fire you just need yellow fire

[@Fab_1o]

Dragon Mines binary I think is the hardest

[@TheViperian]

That one could be a pain too!

[@godlesshp6188]

Absolutely. But Dragon Mines shortcut can be taken in a failed way, in a good way, in a great way and in a perfect way. Blizzard Bluff second shortcut is literally an all in move: or you take it, or you're fucked. But yes, honorable mention to this shortcut.

[@anthoblast4678]

I have done the blizzard bluff shortcut without sacred flame but it was hard

[@bruinzpvp8734]

That "only blue shortcut in polar pass" you can do it without blue fire lol

[@TimothyCobain]

6:25 Is that the bear from Crash Bash? 🤔

[@freds2150]

5:16 you don't require blue fire it is possible to do the faster shortcut without blue fire as shown in the WR

[@TheViperian]

Yeah now I only know, my bad. Timing super strict tho :O

Is it bad i can do sewer speed way but not electron avenue shortcut

[@TheViperian]

Nahh, Sewer speedway becomes easy once you got the hang of the timing so you're cool!

[@sarasfabulousworld]

No worried if you cant do electron Avenue then practice in time trial

yeap i believe you. This is an old video, will be uploading a new one.

[@DS---jx4mw]

The Viperian yayayayayay

[@BradleyCoopertest]

I can’t u-Turn or airbrake because I can’t play with D-pad

[@TheViperian]

Is it uncomfortable for you? To get the most advantage, Dpad is kind of a must to use for air braking

[@BradleyCoopertest]

TheViperian Yes, very uncomfortable. And it is weird because I have been a gamer for 30+ years. And in the nintendo days there weren’t any analogue sticks. But I can’t get used to it. I can not defeat a single oxyde time. So I can not become any good at this game if I keep using analogue? It’s a Shame cuz I love the game. I am mad at myself that I can’t get the hang of it. I am not a noob gamer. Held world records in Rayman, rayman legends, many racing games, was the second best FIFA player on xbox for two years in a row. Yet here I get completely owned!! Just like in shooters. When you are my age (39) your reflexes or getting slower so 15 years ago my kill/death ratio would be 3.0 in shooters, now it is 0.3. 😅 I really hope you can give me some good pointers or tips. Maybe to learn u-turn with analogue or is this also impossible. My and my son and friend have subbed because we like that you take the time to help CTR noobs. Best wishes for 2020!

[@TheViperian]

@@BradleyCoopertest thanks for sharing this! I love helping people if I can, glad to know my message for out to the community 😄 Dont worry, u can still win without airbraking. All u need to know is how to maintain your boost (blue fire, sacred fire) and shortcuts. That's really all u need for oxide ghost

[@TheViperian]

@@BradleyCoopertest also, it's not impossible to airbrake with analog. It's just much harder. Try to precisely pull your stick to the bottom right or left accurate

[@raharaha4961]

Sewer speedway is very hard for me

[@gamerguy425]

I absolutely can not STAND the fence shortcut in OoT (or NN to a lesser extent), it's not the most inconsistent in the game but it is by far one of the most punishing if you miss. that patch of grass should 100% be removed, you've already dropped like 3 places and lost all speed if you miss it, it doesn't need insult to injury. I avoid it like the plague even though I can get it like 60% of the time, that nightmarish 40% is never worth it. it is enough to make me hate the map and drop out of the lobby usually. Blizzard bluff (just the jump I didn't even know about the fence) and Prehistoric Playground's first are the absolute worst in terms of inconsistency/difficulty though. I've attempted them full on blue flame, a turbocharger AND an Aku-aku and still missed, and then one time I made the former without even boosting. makes zero sense. Twilight tour's is probably the least worth it, I swear I do better without since it leaves you at a horrible angle.

[@TheViperian]

Yeah some shortcuts are just useless and not worth it lol. Another example would be Nina's Nightmare very first shortcut at the start line. It doesnt feel like a shortcut but an alternate path

[@gamerguy425]

@@TheViperian I don't think I've seen a single person use that besides CTR challenge, you have to risk jumping a fence for virtually nothing, the unboosted jump probably ends up breaking even if not being slower the main path! Any that go through rough terrain like Mystery caves, Roo's Tubes, or Coco's Park are only worth it with a lot of speed, beginners would probably do more harm than good.

[@oumarounsangounjikam5301]

I love you

[@Boggyb25]

The fence on out of time is too hard for me lol Cant make it ffs

[@TheViperian]

If u need a tip, u need drift boosting to make it. Then drive normally and jump

[@the_verTigO]

@@TheViperian It's actually possible without boosting at all if your timing is correct.

[@ezekrijali1054]

It's normal I guess

[@N13TheGeneral]

Literally over a minute before you even start to think about maybe even beginning the video. If you want to plug yourself and add 5+ minutes of fluff to pad out your run time be my guest but its not for me. I watch videos for content not for bullshit. Maybe try plugging yourself at the end? That way people might be able to consume your content and make an informed decision on whether they want to watch more after that fact, not before.

[@TheViperian]

Not sure what the deal is, but thanks for the feedback Fulcrum! Rest assured, all my videos focuses the most on the value i give, and this video is no exception. Perhaps watch it first and let me know what you think? 🙂
