The Daytripper | Mario Kart Riibalanced

[@RyderMK]

4:37 I can’t believe we live in a timeline where the Wild Wing can be dominant and actually a good vehicle. Honestly props to the team and Arc.

I never thought that my favorite kart would one day be the best in the game... :0

[@cookieoggie5309]

Same!

[@itstherealmario81]

This kart has been my main ever since I downloaded the mod, and i love it to death

[@rossduncan9516]

Eyyy I got mentioned :D Anyways, to add to your point at 5:39 onwards: Daytripper doesn't need to snake particularly often since most of the long straightaways in the game give players more than enough opportunity to charge an SMT on a turn beforehand (rDS, rBC and MC all come to mind), thereby allowing it to cruise through a good ~60% of the straight. This can be extended by powersliding right as the boost is about to end though; it should be enough to get you to the next turn. I'd argue that it isn't really the speed or the miniturbo that makes the Daytripper so broken on its own (the Cheep Charger is identical in both stats iirc). Rather, it's this frontrunning ability *in tandem with* excellent midpack prowess, meaning it can take a beating and power through the pack even it does fall behind. Good acceleration and handling are such a unique trait for a Mini-Turbo vehicle in Riibalanced and I love the idea of a "safety net" for such an archetype, but there's a reason why the Shooting Star, the Cheep Charger and the Quacker are so much more balanced; they're all punished severely for losing their rhythm whereas the Daytripper just gets a slap on the wrist. All that is to say... Daytripper is too good for snaking I guess lmao

[@campbellblock3061]

Daytripper does have 5 frames more mt than cheep charger, and it's the significantly higher turning speed, acceleration, and weight that make it better for mid pack playing.

I don't know much about how to design racing games in general so these videos have been pretty insightful.

[@bruhmaxxer]

The lack of item visibility is a bigger problem than you'd think, if I am being honest

[@bb010g]

If you're cutting a 5.1 release, could you also release a variant with original (or HD original) HUD icon textures? The flat shaded icons are the worst part of Riibalanced to me.

[@DoodleZfps]

not seeing the single shell inside of the kart is kinda insane ngl

[@azuremk__3101]

The amount of work you and everyone else puts into this game is insane! Before you announced your future plans for your channel I didn't even know there was a competitive Mario Strikers, but I'm definitely checking it out once Battle League releases. Thanks for really being such a big part of one of my favourite gaming communities for so long! I'm sure you will have just as big of an impact on a new addition to my list of favourite gaming communities ( I really like Mario and football so it should be a perfect match for me) Keep up the great work!

[@veryblocky]

I do like the idea of rebalanced, but I feel like the very stylised icons will hold it back from being more widely used.

[@PrincessLadyRain]

Honestly Daytripper is my favorite kart in the entire game so I'm glad to see it's actually good here. ❤️️❤️️

[@campbellblock3061]

3:25 Mini turbo speed doesn't grant you any offroad benefits on rsl. The offroad multiplier still takes effect with the vehicle's mt speed and you lose the same proportion of speed as without.

[@Arcintel]

Yeah that's what I meant. You should know this by now camp lol

[@KR_Kosmik]

I'm glad to be able to watch this video when it was intended to be watched!

[@CyberCat3O]

I started playing mkwii a few weeks ago so its really funny that you're retiring just as i got here lol

[@cookieoggie5309]

Yes! My favorite kart!

@arcintel, Hello. I made an iso patch today and I need to change the gameid to put this iso on the same hd as the original iso rmce01. Which gameid should I use? Or can I choose any one?

[@modernkiwi6447]

I am for sure going to play this once I graduate High School

wonder if well get 1 of these for my fave kart baby booster (; as alyways another gud vid arc

[@theonezenitram]

Can you make it so the thundercloud gives you a shell hitting effect rather than make you small? I feel like making the timer longer just delays the problem rather than alleviate it.

[@OneMindReezy]

It’s a thundercloud that shocks you with *lightning*

[@theonezenitram]

I try to use this mod but it doesn't work. Can u help me

[@billegghead1473]

So is the Flame Runner just garbage now or what?

[@modernkiwi6447]

The Flame Runner was untouched. Arc wanted it to be the gold standard for how this mod was going to be balanced

[@billegghead1473]

@@modernkiwi6447 so then I assume that it’s still pretty viable Online?
