In 3DS, sense you could see the itens that your rival gets, I would always stop the car and let everybody pass me. In this game, is a little hard, because you only see the blue shell once it's coming in your direction. But it's still possible, only the window to fool the shell blue is smaller.

​@@bolicobtbh I read this and forgot that you could abbreviate that to Mario Kart, so I thought you were talking about Mortal Kombat... Minor confusion.

This is actually one of the karts I've been using for a while because of how good the acceleration is. Didn't expect to be actually the slowest combo ever. XD

[@Shortcat321]

it also has the highest mini turbo stat, so it's not too bad!

I'm with you on the weight stat thing. On Mkwii the weight stat is even more busted to the point using lightweights are unviable on tracks due to respawns. I bought mk8d just because the lightweights are very usable and I love toad and the baby characters!!!

[@amomentintimedigitaldesign381]

I think villager gap jumped on mushroom gorge

[@jacobesterson]

Unviable is a stretch but sets like Funky Kong + Flame Runner and Daisy + Mach Bike definitely outclass any of the lightweight options.

[@antoine_as]

Univable is exagerrated, I remember I had reached 9999 points with Baby Luigi Bullet Bike and stayed around the 9000s during a long time. But yes, you were ejected pretty far at the slightest impact, and it was even worse in the air.

Acceleration is the only important thing. It’s all about the highest average speed.

[@NekoUrabe]

This video is making me want to play the game again. I’ve never had a specific build in mind just picked things I liked too. This looks like a fun combination to try out!

[@Shortcat321]

Its one of the most fun in my opinion! (Until you get bumped off)

[@EquestrianKatz]

Your commentary is like my constant inner monolouge when playing this game. I love the strategizing of this game, and also having to adapt quickly in some situations. Great video, and I agree, Waluigi's Stadium is the best track the game! ;D

This is my setup while i play (i just used drybones instead because basically the same stats). Its a super fun combo and constantly gliding between placements whenever you get in the zone is just the best feeling. Its a pure skill build that can definitely top the best builds out there if you can play to its advantages

Just found your channel and am loving it so far! If you're looking for a fun acceleration combo to play (at least in my opinion lol), I recommend Bowser Jr., The Duke, Azure Rollers, and the Cloud Glider Been using this build since I started playing MK8D, it's my ol' reliable Looking forward to seeing more of your videos :]

[@NopeGangster69420]

[@coldcoffeegaming2798]

This setup is honestly pretty close to optimal, and is optimal on several tracks. The mini-turbo is much more important in this game than raw speed.

[@absolutezerochill2700]

I've actually used this strat a ton with dy bones in 200cc. Though that was probably years ago and the "meta" has changed a lot. Mostly because that's what Mankalor used.

[@akumaisreal2090]

While that's not my exact build, different body and glider, my stats are exactly the same. I perform pretty well with it, especially the more tight turn focused tracks. If my luck is good and I keep a solid defense and occasional boost I consistently place top 3. It's not an optimal build but for some reason I fell in love with it lol

[@Shortcat321]

Awesome! I also used to main this combo, mainly for the mini turbo stat. Charging them quickly is so fun

[@josephianijosephiani1737]

the 21:45 banana probably is the one you dropped the previous lap ahahah Btw that's my set, I just run the Azure Rollers instead and I really like that combo, feels really good expecially at 200cc

I haven’t watched the video yet, but when I saw the thumbnail and saw you with my go to setup whenever I play, I knew I had to check it out. Curious to see how it compares. I’ve never played competitively, but I always dominate with it at get togethers.

[@65435]

The thing is you have optimal mini turbo but dry bones combo has too but more speed so thats better but yoshi teddy is less mini turbo but sooo much better in speed and you still have much mini turbo

[@Shortcat321]

exactly. the hidden mini turbo stat is pretty busted, tbh i think MT > speed, but only by a little bit. the reason i think this is because the current most popular combo (yoshi tier + teddy buggy) is tied for #1 highest speed + MT sum. and of those best combos, yoshi teddy has the #1 highest MT stat, and lowest speed stat. even if you look at prepatch, so many records were set on waluigi/biddybuggy, which is exactly the same idea. it was tied for #1 highest speed + MT combo you can have, and it had the highest MT / lowest speed out of those combos. walu/wiggler also had very similar stats.

[@65435]

Yeah i mean mt is better than speed imo but still online its literally bad to go in all mini turbo cause much Mini turbo=less weight and you get bumped of very easily with the Yoshi combo you still get bumped pretty hard so i use the Rosa combo i feel like online you can do

[@65435]

Excactly the same as with Yoshi but its a little harder so at least online the rosa combo is better

[@aehfoibyr2931]

In the original Kart the 2 characters with the most speed were Bowser and DK, but they were hard to steer. In Kart 8 the the drift boost concept means that the character/vehicle/tires/parachute are supposed to be used to have the highest "acceleration". If you have highest acceleration and can keep boosting, you are the fastest.

[@xiii-Dex]

This was actually my main for about 4 years. I dragged it up to just over 9k. Eventually I stopped playing as much, and my little brother got too far ahead in rating (around 13k). Between that matchmaking, and my own skills being rusty, I was stuck mid-pack a lot. Which is really rough in this combo, so I started playing heavy(er) characters. This combo is/was not bad at most tracks, you just need to stay out of trouble and have a smooth run. 200cc and twisty courses are your friend, you feel like a god. It's lost some since the stat rebalancing, but before that anything biddybuggy/rollers was at least decent. Even now I'll still play this combo on occasion for fun, especially when I'm matchmaking at my own rating.
