Little thing about coins, they actually protect you from boos, or rather your better item. A Boo will always steal your coin first before the item behind it, so it's always a good idea to hang onto it until you get to the next item box

I feel like the boo is underrated here. The whole invisible thing is great in the middle of the pack, as that's where the most chaos is. Just having a moment to breathe is powerful. Also it's the best item to dodge the lightning with as good players will check the minimap to see who is in a star or bullet bill and will wait until they end to actually use it, but the minimap won't show you someone in a boo. Also the stealing is still nice. Yeah stealing a star or bullet is rare but it's REALLY powerful when you do, as not only are you giving yourself that item, but someone who might have made a big play with it now can't. Plus even if you steal a banana from first? Well you might have just gotten first hit with a red shell.

I would argue that Piranha goes over Golden Mushroom. Neither item gives you behind defense, but will offensively punish your attackers who pass you. Additionally, the dread of having an essential item by these two arent the same. No matter what I do with the golden, I'm forced to use it for 8 seconds, while I can burn through the Plant a bit quicker.

Blue shell is extremely useful. It causes the gap between first -4th place to narrow. That makes them all fight more, bringing 5-you closer. It also makes the race longer giving you more time to catch up. A blue shell makes a huge difference. Solid pick

As someone who plays this game competetivly there are a few things on this list that I disagree with. 1. Bomb. I would honestly put this in clutch af tier. If you pull this in first it can be really useful for creating space between you and the rest of the pack especially on certain tracks. 2. Green shell: I’d say it’s a not terrible item. There are definitely better items on the list that deserve a spot in solid pull more than the green shell. 3. Triple bananas: I would put this one in solid pull. It offers great defense and is just solid all around. Yes it may lack protection but what I do is just drop it behind me so that way the red breaks on the banana. 4. Piranha plant: I would put this one in solid pull. It can carve through the pack, if someone has triples ahead of you or is trailing this item is great for getting rid of them. And when you press the attack button it will actually give you a brief speed boost each time you use it. 5. Boo: the boo is a pretty decent item. You can use it to be invincible which can come in really clutch. Having one also means that no one else can steal it. By far the best item to have in first for this reason. And also if you use a boo in first it will always give you a mushroom because there is nobody ahead of you. And back to the invincibility it lasts for 10 seconds which is longer than the star and the boo also can steal something useful. 6. Crazy 8: now this could definitely be a clutch af tier but in my opinion it’s just not good. You cannot use it strategically, you can get your star stolen, and the bomb it comes with can blow yourself up. 7. Golden mushroom. This item I feel is often underrated. It provides a speed boost equivalent to a normal mushroom but it can be very useful to either just get away or make up some really good ground against the rest of the pack. And there are also certain situations where goldens are better than stars for certain shortcuts that are just big. 8. Coin. I’d put this item in big terrible. It goes at the bottom of the tier but it’s definitely not useless. Using it gives you 2 extra coins and if you have 10 then you get a 7% speed boost which is essential if your in first and are trying to get away from the pack. It also protects your 2nd item from being stolen by a boo. Let’s say you have protection or a horn in the 2nd slot. You don’t want it getting stolen. And lastly if you have a coin your garunteed to get an item next set. 8. Don’t get me wrong triple reds are great but sometimes you would rather have them for defense over offense. For that reason I’d put them in clutch af tier and the red shell at the top of solid pull. Other than that everything else I can agree with.

I actually disagree with the star being elite ONLY because you can still have your remaining item, if you have any, stolen by Boo. It's not complete in invincibility whereas in the regular Mario games, you can actually kill the Boo with the Star. I agree with everything else however, the star is more of a Clutch AF for me personally as well as the Golden Mushroom.

By the way you forgot two things to mention about the boomerang flower. It's able to go through defenses and destroy multiple shells and bananas unlike the red and green shell. This gives you the opportunity to take out other racers much more effectively than the shells. Also if you throw it and have another item in your slot, it will come back in the second slot which can be also good if you have good items in there. For me it's a solid item 👍
