The MOST Important Stat in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

the mini-turbo stat is the best stat in mk8dx. mini turbos are what you get at the end of a drift (also called a drift boost). there are 3 levels: blue (mini turbo), orange (super mini turbo), and purple (ultra mini turbo).

As a MKDD player, snaking is in my veins

Additionally, with 10 coins. The slowest combo goes faster than the fastest with 0 coins.

so that's why my little sister's baby rosalina + buggybud + roller always managed to keep up with me despite having no speed

MK8DX:Snaking

MKDS:"Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power"

I feel like if something is this important they should have it on the main screen

MKDS players after hearing snaking: God mode time

[gotchamatcha]

weird that its hidden seeing as its so important, and it was a stat shown in other mk games such as wii

We all know that coolness is the actual most important factor

I wish they would show us the mini turbo stat

Acceleration is still very important, as that lets you recover from getting hit in real races

Ah yes, we've come this far and the strategy for being fast in DS is now the case for Deluxe.

for people who dont know: snaking is drifting left and right in short distances like a snake moving slowly on the ground, usually to charge mini turbo in mario cart or getting drift points in other games

wish shy guy had a better mini turbo he’s adorable 🥲

Listen dude, I have no idea how you popped up but the way you explain things makes my day and brings me such a good sense of nostalgia. I feel like I’m talking with my cousin when we were little figuring out strategies to smoke every guest out of the water, you’re great, keep doing your thing

[GanondorfKingofEvil]

Honestly I've always prioritized decent handling and traction over stupid speed levels. Extreme speed can make certain tracks frustrating to race on as making turns can be tough.

Finally, a video that disproves the whole “heavier characters are better because they’re faster” mentality way too many Mario Kart players wrongly have. Glad to see I was right all along.

I remember playing MKDS while snaking with my boy Drybone with his tank kart.

Love how Tanooki Mario has a better mini-turbo stat than normal Mario

Video Ideas:
But what ACTUALLY charges the mini-turbo? Distance? Time? Is it dependent on the angle?
Mini-Turbo charge stages compared (purple vs orange vs blue)
what is inside drift and which vehicles use it?
