(Big Spoilers) Dr. Robotnik's Ring Racers - Extra Cup [Master Difficulty, S Rank]

(Footage was recorded in version 2.1) The SPB is a threat but also a source of protection in some cases...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Master difficulty is an unlockable difficulty after collecting all 14 emeralds.
On this difficulty, The speed is set at Gear 3 just like Hard Mode but ALL Bots will be MAX Level at the start and they will NOT get easier even upon continuing. On top of that, in Bonus Round, you have NO bumpers and the timer will not refresh above 10 seconds! It's a challenge on how well you can deal with strong bots and your overall mastery of the game.
Also, on this difficulty only, Finishing 1st overall on a GP GUARANTEES a Sealed Star, rather than being within A Rank status after the last race of a GP. Perfect, considering there is 1 unlockable for getting all the emeralds AGAIN... but on Master. Sealed Stars will also be on Gear 3 speed rather than Gear 2!

You are beyond human.

I got in a LOT of practice while I was testing...

[@bladedasher]

Damn, you made that look EASY. The spb win at the end was the icing on the cake

[@JugadorXEI]

Thanks for the video, I picked up on a lot of stuff I should be doing in races myself, looking forward for more!

[@lipucd]

I don't even know how Chu went FLYING at the end of Silvercloud Island but that had me in stitches (but also pain as that really should have been your first place but MAX AI for a reason huh?).

[@Dave15166]

It was HILARIOUS when that happened to me! I wasn’t too worried about not getting 1st because I knew I could run it back on the later rounds as bots aren’t that good on those maps so I just took it in stride.

[@CoffeeFlavoredMilk]

I take it the Chuchu took the huge positioning bump at the start of Hill Top real personally.

[@TopManLoader]

At the 5:15 mark, you drop down significantly fast, before getting a boost of speed upon hitting the ground. I noticed that you've done this a few other times in the footage. How did you drop so fast without E Braking?

[@Dave15166]

It’s an extreme slope downward so I just stop accelerating and let it drop me. The boost of speed comes from landing on slopes that face forwards as well.

[@TopManLoader]

@@Dave15166 Ahh, I see! Thank you very much.

[@kyotanaka920]

What is the fan thing that appears behind you?

Sliptide

[@UncleSciz]

A little bit of wavedashing and a lot of hoping the bots dont engage overdrive. Was this on 2.2?

[@Dave15166]

This and the upcoming SPB, Aqua, and Rocket Cup videos were recorded in 2.1. I got a disclaimer in the description for anytime I post content on an earlier version.

[@Fefe-vp9yk]

How do you make those sharp drifts? I can't get them consistently

[@kramerius2219]

Using a heavier character gives you faster drift charge, also you can hold brake while drifting to make a tighter turn
