  At this point, I’m convinced no combo can be bad enough to overwrite Shortcat’s pure skill

  Has anybody noticed how for the first 6 races Shortcat has either gotten 1st or 11th? That's the duality of Mario Kart for ya

  Unpopular opinion, i think the best stat in the game is the "getting hit by random green shells" stat, you wanna have that at the minimum. after that, it's all ok

  Shortcat's rivalry with C kind of feels like that scene from Avengers Endgame where Wanda tells Thanos he took everything from her and he's like "I don't even know who you are".

  There are actually a bunch of cool and unique combos you can see at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQYHBu2Aw8c&amp;t=540">9:00</a>. The Green Inkling Girl with Standard ATV and Leaf Tires is especially drippy, and gets the speed boost for colour coordination!

  That second squeaky clean race was so smooth

  Honestly I really enjoy seeing the juxtaposition of how acceleration is great for 1st place and speed is great for last. It sort of shows why the meta combos currently are yoshi+1-2 classes of heavier characters paired with high acceleration/mini turbo karts.<br><br>Also it&apos;s honestly impressive how even without shortcuts the mushrooms seem exponentially better because they&apos;re on such a high speed combo.

  Shortcat’s Coconut Mall ending snipes are always crazy <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQYHBu2Aw8c&amp;t=1120">18:40</a>
