Troy is a mutant with secret mario kart superpowers that lets him nail shortcuts right away. Scientists should study him before he reaches 30K VR

[@cartermc4141]

Jperm?

[@LiamDeege]

@Shortcat321 I mean, Troy has been a long time veteran of MKWii and MK8, mostly MKWii, but still, he is but a god at this game and likely always will be. I agree with how scientists should examine his skills before hitting 30K lol.

[@pokemonroyale948]

But you're gonna be the one win the race to 30k vr before Troy, rod and hydreix

[@cartermc4141]

Jperm??

[@Rattersons]

19:51 shortcat’s stunned silence then the “what the hell” is so funny 💀💀

[@pineapplegamer6986]

Fr it was surprising to here him say that even though that’s barely a swear he’s just that family friendly 😂

[@saltysalmoling8055]

25:05 Shortcat: This guy is so talented! Thwomp: EEERRN-URRRNN

[@culhacol]

Dude is like: Not if I have anything to say about it

[@MayroSMM]

This is one of my favourite videos from you recently! Would love to see a part 2!

[@GamerThatExists]

[@Awwad02]

Would like to see you guys do some videos together again soon. 👍🏾

[@DittoGTI]

Hello Mayro

[@ddiiaannaa25]

Yeah and we need a Mushroom Gorge Gap jump

[@elboz3460]

Shortcat saying purrrrrfect is just so goooood 3:37

[@LiamDeege]

I just watched the first Captain America from 2011 a few days ago and I liked it a lot, especially as Hugo Weaving is in it and he’s one of my favorite actors as of late.

[@DittoGTI]

​@@Shortcat321Shortcat!

[@Minecraft_Steve_]

@@LiamDeege winter soldier is a really great movie too. Excellent fight choreography, great emotional beats, and a pretty cool setup for the rest of the series

[@LiamDeege]

This feels crazy when Troy used to be the one teaching his friends like Justin, Sam, Colton, Matt, etc. the shortcuts for the shortcut challenge videos Troy used to make all those years ago, now Shortcat is teaching Troy the hardstuff in MK8.

[@Unknown_user_6]

The OG days. The best days. I’ll always have RTCT and the shortcut challenges in my heart… now he’s not doing it for fun, he’s doing it as his literal job. Time goes too fast man:(

[@LiamDeege]

@@Unknown_user_6 Same, I grew up watching the shortcut challenges, his old custom track streams and RTCT all those years ago back in late 2012/early 2013 which was when I first started watching him. I was only 7 years old at the time and I just turned 19 a few days back.

[@Unknown_user_6]

@@LiamDeege that is absolutely crazy. I started watching around 2015 but I was always going through his channel I feel I’ve actually watched all his videos despite only discovering him in 2015. The nostalgia…

[@LiamDeege]

@@Unknown_user_6 I’ve known him ever since my brother first introduced me to RTCT 11 years ago and I’ve been a fan of him on and off ever since.

[@Unknown_user_6]

@@LiamDeege yes- I’ve actually been on and off as well. But it’s actually impossible to stay away from him forever

[@Unknown_user_6]

This is the content we needed. Both two legends teaching their friends their respective games. Two of the most enjoyable,likeable funny people on YT. Thanks Troy and Shortcat.

[@AshleyDease]

Y’all have a chemistry of sorts that would be cool to see more of. For sure more collabs should happen but I’d even say I’d listen to a podcast of you two talking about Mariokart, Nintendo, and gaming in general.

[@heinricha]

I agree

[@sediew]

25:19 I think it’s the MKWii experience! Troy learns really fast!

[@NickMario1]

Yeah!

[@jukezy46]

Props to Troy for giving recognition to smaller creators such as Jperm.

[@orangez8710]

shortcat cant even catch a break on another channel 💀

[@RemyMS]

Troy has some serious competition now 😮

[@LiamDeege]

He always has.

[@toadsworld]

More like Shortcat has some serious competition!!

[@bunkeboy1724]

My two favorite Mario Kart KZbinrs coming together to make this banger

[@zachdamenti4387]

0:35 It’s technically considered “Shortcut time with Shortcat!” Music to my ears!

[@LiamDeege]

Good one Zach!

[@EthanMallonee]

Troy just downloaded the shortcuts like Neo with Kung Fu

[@rosswinchester4367]

I’m so happy you collabed with Shortcat! He’s recently become my favorite Mariokart 8 creator!

[@AnnoyedMountain-on3lv]

Troy needs to start bagging if he wants to learn from shortcat Also this vid got uploaded the same time as shortcats collab with you BEST 30 SECONDS EVER

[@vicdagreat4027]

25:04 "This guy is so talented!" *Proceeds to get absolutely demolished by the thwomp*

[@Barak925]

20:02 me when I see my final exam knowing well I didn’t study

[@nxlevelmusic9895]

This is how the top mk leaderboard players drive. Players like Frozen, L1am, Haupi and EmilP. These guys all had world records on certain tracks. Troy is gonna be wild :D

[@miniya]

the best crossover!!! i also started to try a lot of the more difficult shortcuts after i found shortcats channel. helped me a lot to do better in worldwides!!

[@declanmcsherry9368]

So excited for this collab! Been waiting for the day since I found shortcats channel

[@katocollette]

these two collab video's have been an amazing experience to watch, thank you guys for making my day

[@CptAbril]

I love seeing this kind of stuff and trying to do it myself, its so satisfying when u finally get them even if not perfectly made

[@TheSafeFellaOfficial]

Thank you Troy I literally just made a grilled cheese 😮‍💨 I have my snacks and I seen you uploaded ❤️

[@user-kn2ov4sk3f]

shortcat should make merch PURRR-FECT

[@Hallootje]

Thanks for listening

[@Vissing]

This was such a helpful video, with the mt -> jump before off-road. Can’t wait to try it out later

[@pinkyoshi_]

So much to learn from this! Thank you Troy and Shortcat! 👏🏻

[@joefisher3950]

I’m learning so much from this pairing. Great help from both of you. I’ve learned a ton from both of you! (That invisible tech SMH)

20:02 SHORTCAT CUSSED I JUST CLIPED THAT

Has he ever said it? Did he say it on his channel?

[@Xris10BUL]

@@IconicIan29 he has on his jperm channel i think

[@IconicIan29]

@Xris10BUL I don’t think JPerm and Shortcat are the same person although they are similar in like everything

[@Xris10BUL]

[@B-ray1802]

That ending montage was beautiful

[@webbowser8834]

I love that shortcut montage at the end of the vid. Was really well put together.

[@THeDoMeTB]

i love this community... we all got into mk as this anger-inducing childrens party game and may end up with people like these two guys, working together, teaching eachother and hyping eachother up. basically a 180 degree turn

[@mattb6522]

This was the most wholesome Mario Kart video I've seen. Like an older brother teaching a younger brother how to play a game! 😄 Shortcat gave a really good tutorial and Troy really picked these shortcuts up quick! I actually didn't know a few of these shortcuts, so I have to try these out. Granted online is a totally different story as you have to contend with getting bashed by items while properly performing these!

[@celestial3052]

I love this content! It is helpful because shortcat teaches repeatedly and in detail. I want to see this content more!

[@dooza]

Very nice video, would love to watch some more. Learned a lot and I have been playing both TT and Online for a long time.

[@jethrothorne4801]

Great vid! Keep the cuts coming!

[@haydenschaff8179]

I loved this! I’m generally good at the game, but don’t know much of the tech like this. What an amazing learning opportunity! More please! I’m subbing to both channels.

[@Dareianrc36]

This collab was one of my favorites. Shortcat is one of the youtubers I watch almost everyday. You two have easily the best comfy content to watch with my wife when we're just hanging out at night.

[@zachdamenti4387]

29:32-31:45 YES!!!! The Mario Kart Wii credits theme has finally returned to replay all hard shortcuts successfully made! Arguably the best Mario Kart credits theme in the history of the Nintendo franchise! LET’S GO!!!!

[@DanielOfDuty]

It was at this moment that Zach knew he f'cked up!!!!!!

[@Ieafff]

amazing video! love the collab of you and shortcut

[@zonto22]

Thanks for including the highlight reel at the end!

[@PeachyFanboy]

You used Peach in the video, respect

[@Killager24]

W

[@OtisCluck]

I mean, she’s basically a reskin of the filthy lizard, so I don’t respect anyone who plays her, using the meta combo required zero skill

[@Togenium.Z]

You say this now but when its competitive(lounge tier fg+, clan wars, its kinda required to use it since youre likely to get targeted by others when using a different combo. @OtisCluck

[@glugging]

@@OtisCluck zero skill? driving with all combos takes basicaly the same ammoiuunt of skill, if not more for meta combo bc u have to do lots of tec with ur high miniterbo and kinda low speed

[@user-bv1hh3ix4y]

I leaned so much man thanks!

[@semihdemir6104]

Didn't know the mute city ramp was offroad. I always released too late thinking it was better

[@davidwilson2916]

That outro compilation was clean. Really took me back in time.

[@zachdamenti4387]

This is a certified Shortcat Reunion classic!

[@Shortcat321]

Yessss I've always wanted to be certified

This is a cool video idea I have to say, I just turned 19 two days ago and this made my day seeing a video like this Troy.

[@Kurt0789]

Love to see a Troy and shortcat collab 🔥🔥

[@Barak925]

1:33 average ageing of Troy’s statements

[@ismaeelbaig1762]

I love how this video went from learning shortcuts to shortcat and Twd just complimenting each other for 30 minutes straight.

[@boogaming9744]

Love the Mario kart Wii credits music at the end ❤️❤️ Reminds me of all the time I spent on 100%-ing my save file when I was 8 (oh god I remember mirror mode, CPUs where so hard to beat !)

[@Limitless_Realm]

Hey TWD98, Nice to see you again its been a while for me!

[@Tristoniasmaximus]

This is the best mario kart video collaboration I have ever seen

[@shadowwarriorshockwave3281]

This is the crossover we wanted and needed a legend in Wii and a legend in 8 Meet up!!

[@girlmaya6818]

It's been over 6 years since you last put out a MKDS video. It'd be cool to see a MKDS worldwides video

[@trixxer872]

Would love to see a part 2. Especially the donut planes 3 shortcut would be aweseome to see

[@Kingboo0690]

25:10 shortcat: ur so talented Meanwhile troy: [gets squished by thwomp]

[@Fruitman1997]

I'm by no means an expert at some of these courses, but I've been finally able to get my barely over 2 min record on Wario Stadium, down to 1min 57, just by mastering these time saves. These are great!

[@ThatOldMan2112]

This was great. I was a little surprised that on Piranha Plant Cove y'all didn't go for the full shortcut on the second one, where there is a miniturbo trick off the ledge, landing on top of the wall and going into a drift, then going over the top of all the rock and landing much further around the corner with a UMT.

[@rryumi]

The ultimate crossover holy it finally happened

[@thespeedytornado6233]

the dragon drift way gap jump shortcut is a must learn

[@Geesus1215]

More of those videos, both were awesome

[@Cirphlyx]

more collabs please. y'all two have such good energy

[@christophermilewski3885]

Definitely need a part two

[@r-channelgaming]

25:07 This guy is so talented! Thwomp: *smashes*

[@TWD98]

I didn’t exactly try to dodge it lol

[@sediew]

Ojhhhh the ending compilation felt sooo nostalgic with the song!

[@sediew]

31:47 lol

[@OrbitalStr]

yesss now with this and the rod-gyrodos colab i will be able to master every shortcut!

[@MrCalCal87]

If Nintendo made an education system, Shortcat and Troy would be the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe teachers.

[@troybradoo4916]

This collab is so hype

[@gamkht]

Came from Shortcat's video, this was an awesome collab!!

[@Psychomaniac14]

the collab we didn't know we needed

i like how shortcat says purrrfect to insinuate that he is indeed a cat

If we have more TWD and Shortcat collab videos in the future I will be so happy

now i have a need to try some myself D: I need to incorporate the Wii Rainbow Road half pipe tech

Mushroom gorge gap cut over the fence should be in part 2

Nice Co-op ❤

[@VoskoWTF]

I LOVE THE CHEMESTRY BETWEEN YOU TOO

You know Troy is absolutely filthy at the game when his own FIRST ATTEMPT is the one that looks the cleanest and gets put in the montage at 29:54.

[@aloftoft8403]

You guys should do a follow up competing as a team in each game great stuff

I never knew the rainbow road one that’s crazy you have to release A for it

Troy has such a high skill ceiling! Incredible.

[@austinpierstorff5182]

collab of the century

[@Jwayspillz]

I gotta practice these shortcuts.

[@Qortexgd]

I dont know if you've done this yet, but you should do a shortcut challenge video with shortcat, kinda like how you would do shortcut challenges back in the day

[@nouche]

This is all nice and useful in time trials… but which ones are worth going for in races? Taking other players and items into consideration! The possibility of getting red shelled, or struck by lightning…

[@Shortcat321]

All of these are worth it if you can do them consistently! There are shortcuts in this game that are not worth going for online (cheese land has a few) but I only taught Troy the useful ones

[@MikeyLORR]

Can't wait to see Troy learn the MKDS Waluigi Pinball glitch!

[@OtisCluck]

You gotta show Troy the Dragon Driftway gap jump

[@garcher42]

I love when they cut to Troy on Peach Gardens he's doing the Troy strat

[@winstonbrown4246]

for the tram shortcut, if you hit the blue toad on the side he will instantly turn and correct you to the right way

[@winstonbrown4246]

it might be a bit slower buts its easier for me

[@BzumzumakaBuzbuzBen]

we all love the MKWii credits theme for the reason it's perfect

[@sediew]

I really like the idea of teaching each other your main MK game strats

[@nonmagicalwitch]

I think 200cc shortcuts for the next video would be so cool to see
