I don’t even like Daisy’s character but your opinions of her tracks are enough to get you a life sentence

[splaturials]

Dumb rules we all know royal raceway is peaches track

[joshdavenport]

For Bowser, you forgot to talk about Neo Bowser City

[SplatKid]

Daisy got robbed. Daisy's Cruiser is a top 5 track at least.

Shoutout to my favorite Mario character, Cheese, who would totally finish 1st with an average rank of 1st with their S+++ tier track, Cheese Land.

Only real issue I have with this is when you call a track not fun to play. Like Shy Guy Falls. You called the end clunky and the shortcut not even fun. That’s a skill issue. If you learn how to do it, it becomes crazy fun. Same for a few other courses you mentioned.

Honestly, I think Royal Raceway should count as a Peach course. Its Japanese name is _literally_ "Peach Circuit", for crying out loud! Likewise, I'm not sure if Piranha Plant Pipeline should or shouldn't count as a Piranha Plant course, since its Japanese name is "(Warp) Pipe Canyon", making it as much of a Piranha Plant course as Mushroom Bridge, Mushroom City, Shroom Ridge and Mushroom Gorge being Toad courses. If it does count, then should other courses count which have character names in different languages? Would Ice Ice Outpost count as a Toad course because its Dutch name is "Toads Poolbasis" (Toad's Polar Base)?

It's also kinda odd that the Tour versions of certain courses, most notably the GBA courses Cheep Cheep Island and Yoshi Desert, and maybe Luigi Circuit too, aren't being mentioned at all. Considering that literally every single course in the Booster Course Pass is revamped from their Tour incarnation, I feel like had these two in particular been added to MK8, they honestly wouldn't have changed a lot from how they appear in Tour... and while Tour does a good job in modernizing these GBA courses with added elevation and assets, it also kind of has the tendency to simplify their course maps with less narrow or less tight curves (Sky Garden being the most obvious example).

This is the most cursed Tier List I’ve ever seen

I'm sick and tired of people saying that a track with little to no shortcuts makes track worse. It's the same argument as people saying hallways are bad in Sonic games. If ykyk.

First of, the linearity is there for a reason. It fits with the tracks theme. Daisy Cruiser is a cruise ship. It doesn't make sense to have shortcuts in such an enclosed space. Same for Waluigi Pinball, pinball machines are not open in any way shape or form. It's literally a box.

Secondly, shortcuts are not what make tracks fun to drive, it's the layout. Obviously shortcuts help the track, but it's not necessary to be good. Usually a track with less shortcuts are harder to drive optimally, but beginners can take it wide. This conpensates for the absence of shortcuts, as you can still save time and get ahead by driving well, it's just not as immediately gratifying as a shortcut. In fact you even said that you like shortcuts that take time to master, and aren't immediately obvious. Guess what? Driving optimally on linear tracks are the exact equivalent!

TL;DR: Skill issue, and that's what it's meant to be. Great video btw. Love the organisation here. 👍🏾

"I know people like how it's essentially the eight in the logo of the game"
That's not what makes the track cool
What makes it cool is that it's a mobius strip, making it everyone's favorite use of the anti-grav in eight

No way in hell half the main cast got beaten by a fish

[Dyswhoric]

*inhales deeply* I WILL NOT TOLERATE DAISY SLANDER.

[pokebbs]

You have an "interesting" opinion

[AlexPies]

10:54 how does Daisy Cruiser have an abundance of shortcuts? I genuinely can only think of one that's in the underwater section

[RSYDMNTP]

I honestly feel like Luigi Circuit and Daisy Cruiser's best version is in the original Double Dash. I get that you haven't played Double Dash yet but I feel like they're the most fun in that version as it feels perfect for Double Dash's gameplay and controls and I feel like you're kind of missing out on why most people find those tracks fun. Of course, I do respect on your takes on those tracks but just throwing it out that you might think differently of those tracks once you've played their original version, or not but that's okay, I get that as well

Btw, GCN Luigi Circuit is a retro track in Mario Kart DS along with SNES Mario Circuit 1 which you both thought never returned in another Mario Kart
