Shortcat Teaches the HARDEST Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Shortcuts

[@Shortcat321]

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?

[@AintNoJohn]

Minecraft Steve

[@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 😂

[@Goat_boi]

most legit wth i've ever heard

[@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

[@elboz3460]

Shortcat saying purrrrrfect is just so goooood 3:37

[@MayroSMM]

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

Mayro

[@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

[@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.

[@AbsoluteLunatic123]

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]

@@AbsoluteLunatic123 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.

[@AbsoluteLunatic123]

@@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]

@@AbsoluteLunatic123 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.

[@AbsoluteLunatic123]

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

[@AbsoluteLunatic123]

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.

[@AintNoJohn]

@@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

[@cosmicjellyf1sh]

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.

[@sus_in_a_bottle]

I agree

[@sediew]

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

[@NickMario1]

Yeah!

[@vicdagreat4027]

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

[@Ethan_Buchanan]

When he said grab some popcorn, I looked down at the time, then went and actually made some popcorn to eat.

[@zachdamenti4387]

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

[@LiamDeege]

Good one Zach!

[@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

[@rosswinchester4367]

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

[@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

[@Barak925]

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

[@katocollette]

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

[@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

[@ProductorMus1c]

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

[@declanmcsherry9368]

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

[@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

[@jukezy46]

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

[@orangez8710]

shortcat cant even catch a break on another channel 💀

[@Biryani2op]

We dont we just call him Dylan

[@IconicMills1234]

I don’t get why people are why people are calling him that we don’t even know if it’s actually him and I think shortcat doesn’t want to talk about it he doesn’t reply to any of them so like let him be stop bringing it up..

[@webbowser8834]

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

[@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.

[@TheOneTrueNothing]

26:10 one thing Shortcat hasn't mentioned that i've found is you sometimes need to hold down over the gap, I've had quite a few attempts while learning this where I do everything right as far as I can tell but then don't get enough air, clip the track, and fall under

[@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!!!!!!

[@notme4415]

2 videos with the same idea from my 2 favorite mario kart creators on my birthday is absolutley legendary! :)

[@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!

[@Canal_do_Lontra]

Its really fun to learn shortcuts together with troy, pls make a part 2 of learning shorcuts, this was a very nice video :D

[@B-ray1802]

That ending montage was beautiful

[@rryumi]

The ultimate crossover holy it finally happened

[@TheSafeFellaOfficial]

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

29:31 hey give me a warning before you do a compilation to the MKW end credits theme, I wasn't prepared for the goosebumps

[@Lukiedepuky]

Thanks for listening

[@zachdamenti4387]

This is a certified Shortcat Reunion classic!

[@Shortcat321]

Yessss I've always wanted to be certified

[@EthanMallonee]

Troy just downloaded the shortcuts like Neo with Kung Fu

[@jadenrott3950]

both of these guys are elite. never played mk8 but love shortcat. played a lot of mkwii and love troy. the vids from both channels are both S+ tier. literally could not get any better.

[@ItumelengMlambo-ff6wh]

If this gets 10k like Troy has to do a 400cc cup in mk8d with Shortcat,Rod and Mayro

[@noahrice3362]

I saw the thumbnail, and I instantly thought back to the wave of adrenaline and excitement that my sister and I had when we discovered the that bouncing off the trolley was possible. We could not believe it - though I can't for the life of me remember which of the two of us pulled it off (despite the fact that it was of the Wario trolley being very clear to me) - we haven't been able to replicate it either. Now I might be able too... What a video!

[@ismaeelbaig1762]

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

[@Happiness20150]

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

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)

[@h3r01cviii5]

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

[@zonto22]

Thanks for including the highlight reel at the end!

[@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.

[@LiamDeege]

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.

[@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.

[@Kingbee642]

25:06 "this guy is so lalended!" **proceeds to get flattened by a thwomp**

[@TWD98]

Hey I already the shortcut and this wasn’t a race 🤷

After that Mushroom Stadium one, I'm wondering if this will feature any of the Smart Steering toggle shortcuts.

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

[@jethrothorne4801]

Great vid! Keep the cuts coming!

[@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

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

You used Peach in the video, respect

[@Killager24]

[@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

[@cyb3r._.]

he's too good, stop him before he beats all the world records (nobody tell him you should hop on the cannon gliders instead of tricking at 26:24, don't see 26:56 for what you should do)

[@haroldjimenez677]

@Shortcat great content. Really fun! Can you make a video with the most common fails when taking shortcuts and how to fix them?

[@shyers__]

I'm so proud of myself for finding the shortcut on Rainbow Road Wii by myself, its so satisfying!

[@shadowwarriorshockwave3281]

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

[@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

[@trixxer872]

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