At this point in the mk universe, the pedal is a accessory and the drifts are the accelerator if you know what I meanLOL

I've played for 400 hours and have been hard stuck around 4500 in lounge, I can't believe I didn't know what softdrifting was, great video

[@liquiduser]

For a beginner I don’t understand how to execute all the things being mentioned. What would help if you can show what buttons I’m supposed to press on the controller.

[@vi-yn1ss]

Same... I understand the idea but don't exactly know how to implement them...showing the controller would be really helpful

[@mqgTWO96]

Is it okay if you can make a tutorial that goes more in depth into soft drifting? There's just sometimes I think my finger is in the correct angle it's supposed to be (up right, up left, down right, or down left diagonally) and it still just doesn't work. There's sometimes I can get the soft drift down but other times it just doesn't work. For example, the UMT (ultra mini-turbo) glider on MK8 Rainbow Road with 10 coins laps 2 & 3, I've practiced it for hours and it's a very difficult and precise soft drift. Maybe you can show different examples with different vehicle combos in the game when you're soft drifting and when you're not soft drifting properly with hand cam or a display.

[@jpgiviner]

I like the way you think! Noted!

[@absalon_5]

​@@jpgivinerplease show the inputs for launch trick and stuff, it'd be so helpful for visual learners.

[@userGlitch6555]

I forgot to say, I like the hand cam. I wish you could show all of them. It really would help for me. Thanks for all your help JP

[@jpgiviner]

of course! I can't guarantee a handcam but I know there's a way to connect your controller to your computer as a way of it tracking your inputs, but idk how to do it. will see!

[@mathushans3508]

@@jpgiviner would also love to see the inputs!

[@userGlitch6555]

@@jpgiviner just the picture like you did at the beginning would help.

[@rayes119]

Thank you jp, for getting me interested in competitive mario kart, I had this game for years but just realized how fun it is.

[@userGlitch6555]

Another great video JP. I just learned some things that I didn’t know and I thought I knew it all, 😂. Keep on Givin’er bud, 🏆

[@jpgiviner]

Thanks man!!!

[@hueygamer3295]

This is a great and very useful for intermediates looking to up their gameplay

[@jpgiviner]

100%!!!

[@lmgaming9675]

awesome vid. Should make a whole vid for each of these that goes super in depth! Subbed for more

[@brodaciousmax8025]

I didn't even know about these techniques. Thanks!!

[@absalon_5]

@JPGiviner would you be so kind to show the inputs to the launch trick? Can't seem to grasp the concept you're speaking without visuals.

[@gameboy-gf4pc]

My only complaint about the video is that I hear what you're saying but it's super hard to visualize it. Like I can't imagine how to use the stick correctly and I would appreciate it if you can show a vid of you doing the example with the controller in hand please. It's just really hard for me to follow.

[@sebasangrykart]

I only have ONE PROBLEM with your video... You never told us ur switch friend code

[@kennyp1832]

Can you please explain how the top time trial baby peach/ princess keep speed while drifting through courses. It's like they drift and hop then drift opposite way or something but it always looks like they keep a super high speed through the course. How do they do this to keep the speed lines going by when drifting? Any knowledge would be helpful

[@taranagnew436]

what's the fastest way to charge your mt while drifting?

[@mathushans3508]

Very good video! Thank you!

[@jpgiviner]

Thanks so much!

[@josiah5395]

Could you show us the joy stick and controls on the controller 😊

[@pretzelgod8972]

Everyone knows you need the Sonic racing suit to go fast

[@victini_10]

great video! how do you low trick? i’ve seen it be used in the beginning cut in time trials for ninja hideaway

[@jpgiviner]

Thanks dude! Low tricking is barely ever necessary in this game, but if it comes down to it, trick off the ramp as late as possible

[@susdino]

How to drive fast: press A

[@StickmanMK8DX]

Love these videos!

[@jpgiviner]

thanks man!!!

[@mcyogourt2071]

You could’ve also included fast cannon glider.

[@jpgiviner]

true 😂 i always forget that tech

[@WilliesBoatTours]

Great video

[@Capro10]

Can I delay drift and soft drift st the same time?

[@alexherreria3362]

Yes! That’s the best way.

[@alexanderrana3363]

For motion tricking do I have to set the bind for that action.

[@mommyof3_908]

So what buttons do you press to trick?!

[@mommyof3_908]

@@Sidecar2024 lol I finally figured it out! 🤣 Can't believe I went that long without doing tricks. They are essential to winning smh. Thanks!

[@Boge42]

The drifting boost in this game is why I dislike it over earlier Mario Kart games.

[@sledgen.]

Just press the A button. Simple. Ik it’s not that simple but still

[@AlphaOmega503]

pro tip, just get the thunder bolt. BAM, your faster than everyone else, lol.

[@jpgiviner]

simply

[@keithgales6916]

What about the flame hopping? I was told it's no longer a thing but it looks like you have it down.

[@danimalsk8r2]

I think what you're seeing is counter-hopping! It's slightly different, its purpose is to realign yourself to have better lineups for shortcuts/drifts

[@BiscuitTime420]

hey someone who makes mk8 content regularly still! cool :))

[@jpgiviner]

you know the vibes!

[@RaidentIsCool-Aid111]

2:24 I can spam ZL insted of shaking my controller and for me I can click buttons fast! Just wanted to let you know👌

[@gamechatwithsteve6064]

alright, im missing something here.. 1. is delayed drifting the fastest way to get the max drift speed? 2. when i do delay drift i only get the yellow flame quicker IF i hold the one direction i chose to drift. i have to turn the other way during the drift so im not offroad because offroad areas stop my drift completely. how do i get the max speed during turns?? 3. were you doing this with the FUCKING joycons and their drifting issues or using a pro controller? i feel utterly humiliated losing to my sister who has a tiny brain, doesnt know anything.

[@KingMJAH]

I wonder if you can motion glide with the toy con ?

[@KingMJAH]

@@Sidecar2024 is it any easier? Do you still have to pause ? Can you do all three at once ?

[@krawczak9182]

I literally kill all of my friends at this game every race. These tricks literally show how many people could kill me at this game

[@tobi2840]

Isn't spindrifting a thing too in mk8dx or is it only in mkwii

[@jpgiviner]

It is not worth going for at all in this game

[@oppa.24]

spindrifting is a thing in mk8dx but its mutch less important

[@EpicStays]

This video confused me more than helped me. I barely see a difference in what you're showing. Maybe this is too high level for beginners?

[@Ricky-1]

My brother in christ it's mario kart why the big words

[@gerardmorton8517]

Press the A button not the B button!

[@rusty7104]

cool

[@reubenhandel210]

Hold the A button

[@kennyp1832]

Or can you explain how not to delay drift please!

[@Allplussomeminus]

Go on 200cc

[@ApemanMonkey]

I don't understand your explanation of soft drifting. You show a clip saying soft drifting is faster than hard drifting, but the clip seems to show a ghost that's hard drifting very tight around a corner and is actually being much faster than the soft drifter?

[@garethcook3606]

This video doesn't awful job of actually show you how to do it. Pass

[@gaelminville]

@JPGiviner. I have been playing hundreds of hours. I did not understand A SINGLE TRICK you just gave. I watched the video 2x already. Show me the buttons on screen while you do it live. It is very frustrating.

[@jado67]

No, to drive fast play 200cc

[@fish-y536]

ma mans so stupid, just select 200cc and youll go so much faster!!!!!

[@jpgiviner]

LMFAO
