38:49 the coincidental timing of the mushroom being there is insane

[@SirThilliomAnimations]

I had no idea that was possible!

[@rockinggamerdude]

I didn’t know it was possible for a while until recently. I’ve played the game since Wii U

[@Chonki66]

He is just out of our league

[@Trancymind]

The force is strong on this one. Waaaaaah! -Mario

[@darioguerrero2580]

That timing was incredible!!

[@albertpaints]

38:48, the odds of the mushroom being there, along with the timing when the blue shell strikes is phenomenal. Amazing play by Kevo!

[@spiderbattler]

@@marcus4907are you not surprised about the mushroom being there

[@imwinningthisone7613]

It's luck

[@boonieuni]

Oh I just absolutely adore the amount of effort the guy at 1:13 has put into splatoon 3, 48 years worth of hours is no joke! What a superfan, he should get a medal.

[@baaott]

His name is jaymoji and it’s not 48 years lol

[@boonieuni]

@@baaott Do the math lol

[@baaott]

I meant that he couldn’t be playing for 48 years in total, so he probably just mispronounced the number, either way he still has a lot of hours

[@baaott]

So chill out mathematician 🤓☝️

[@boonieuni]

@@baaott 1st off it's a joke lol, obviously he mispronounced it, or just said the wrong number. And 2nd, why are you getting so angy?

[@Bananna_man]

The fact this a legit sport with commentators is amazing

[@TamarinPamarin]

I have always thought that it would be cool to have kind of competitive mode in Mario Kart excluding power ups like blue shell, bullet. Anyhow it is interesting to see how they handle the blue shell.

[@buttfaceloser]

I'd like to see a competitive road warrior style of mario kart where you can outfit your kart by strapping different characters to your kart as shields/weapons. The ultimate would be to have Donkey Kong's minions throwing explosive barrels at everyone.

[@theinsfrijonds]

I did that with friends for Mario kart double dash. They decided after a few races that they didn’t wanna do that anymore because I just kept winning. I played way more Mario kart than they ever did.

[@EmpereurTom]

@@buttfaceloserNo Item Rainbow Road Yoshi Only

[@mopanda81]

could just be time trial mode/3 mushrooms per person

[@adamalam1670]

Kevo was straight up phenomenal, definitely deserved that W.

[@KXC42069]

considering the pure luck at 38:49 AND 47:32 Kevo got padded for sure

[@flameeeMK]

​@Chris J 1. He still had to time the mushroom hit perfectly 2. Even if he didn't get the bridge and everyone else did, he had mushrooms, so he would've won anyway by taking the sand cut

[@kevincastillo868]

The only thing missing is more tvs for the audience. Just sitting there watching one screen?

[@nokkbryce8255]

It was amazing that Kevo dodge that blue shell with a mushroom that was dropped by a leaf pile. That was amazing! 38:48

[@rockinggamerdude]

1:27 the one, and only boat man. Failboat.

[@spiderbattler]

My name is purple shep

[@papyrio]

For a sec I thought the new course trailer dropped Edit: some woman stole my comment.

Nope, it's just Nintendo making sure that their latest Mario Kart software update worked.

[@manoaloe15]

This championship is how unique they are 😊

[@gameaddict6969]

Let's have a moment of silence for the player Downin. Also some great clutch moves here. Never knew you could mushroom away from the blue shell!

[@datdownin]

Even when you know the lines to take, it's really all about not getting hit in the end. It definitely tanked my performance after the sixth race.

[@gameaddict6969]

No worries Downin, you preformed great! See you next year!

[@datdownin]

Thanks,@@gameaddict6969! I don't know if Nintendo is going to run another at the same venue next year but I do know that they will be having a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe World Championship at Japan sometime in the future.

[@games-bnb]

great, looking forward to the experience

[@macwelch8599]

Makes me excited about the movie

[@ELDEsports]

I need to learn what equipment they used to stream this event!

[@gootuber546]

0:22 if you like her jacket it is the the takaroka windcrusher from splatoon

[@lookatme69]

To the guy at the beginning claiming to have played over 423,000 hours of splatoon, that means you had to have played for 48 years straight without stopping so nice try.

[@sapphirebulletbill]

Basically a dice rolling championship

[@goog8971]

it’s why it’s so fun tbh

[@user-xr4vg6vl2z]

actshually there a lot of shkill becaushe you have to use the mushcrooms to avoid blue turtle shelsh

Not really, all depends on how smart you are with items and all not making mistakes in driving. With a pinch of luck here and there

I wish I could play something like this. I’m good at this game but not a professional. My 9 year old cousin always beat me at video games but if you take him out of the equation, I can say I’m second best in the family for Mario themed games.
