It has been exactly one year since you posted your first Mario Kart video. Congrats Man!🎉🎉 Here’s to another year of great Mario Kart Videos.

Yes it's finally happening, I am actively working on the pro guide!! (That's why there have not been as many videos lately)
I figured that a shortcut guide is probably just as important as the pro guide for anyone who wants to win more online. Leave a comment if you have questions!

My dad wonders how I keep beating him at Mario kart, so Ima just start to tell him that I've been studying a very small domesticated tiger

Shortcat is living proof that size doesn't matter 😎

Remeber guys, If you suck at MK8DX a childrens party game also rated for LITERAL 3 YEARS OLDS. Shortcats and his handy Shortcats are here for us

Dude, if I could give this video multiple likes, I would. There have been only 2 tracks that I have struggled getting shroomless cuts down on: Yoshi's circut and mute city. After this video specifically calls out releasing the mini turbo early on mute city (much earlier than I ever was), I can now do both mute city and yoshi's circut! Thank you so much for this and all your other very helpful videos. It means a lot!

I like how we have some context and thoughts behind how doing the shortcuts. This video helped a lot

no one could have predicted the consequences of your shorts coming up on my feed a couple weeks back… single-handedly rekindled my love for mario kart and you’re the reason i’m genuinely considering buying myself a switch (i use my sister’s rn) like???

[amirPenton]

The effort that went into this is evident and honestly it’s the perfect format for this type of video. The extra details on each shortcut are super appreciated, and I love how you show it first/talk about it generally before getting into specifics. The amount of detail was just perfect, I have no questions after watching this.

I already know these shortcuts, but you explain it like a teacher and I love it.

[PaperMarioBros]

I love this channel so much… You are definitely one of my favorite Youtubers now!

[brianfagergren]

Video idea: you’re not allowed to do shortcuts in online races

[Mikko]

Shortcat, you need to make a video about ranking all 96 tracks in mariokart from worst to best, I would really enjoy seeing that!

[bigboytrashy]

i love seeing your videos shortcat. i’ve grown so much as a player since i’ve started watching you and im so thankful to you!! never stop uploading

[rebronjames]

Hey, shortcat! There are a couple more shortcuts that are of the same calliber as these that could be cool too include!
The shroomless grass cut for dYC is pretty similar to the cut in rMC and saves a good amount of time.
The beginning shroomless cut on rRRy is feels sick to land if you can do it consistently -- charge a SMT around the second right turn release into a hop over the grass and then trick on the boost panel.
And then -- this one is a little more technical -- right after gap cut on Mount Wario you can start a left drift off the first ramp in the cave and charge an UMT while taking a crazy tight line.
Those are some of my favorites that weren't included here, so thought i would mention them

[ricardol.]

Thank you Shortcat for your content <3

[LbeansW]

I’ve been subscribed to you for a few weeks now and just watching a little over a dozen of your vids has helped me improved in Mario Kart! Thank you so much for being so helpful ❤

[bitcringeyinnit]

Thanks Shortcat, I've already been applying what I've seen from your videos but this in depth tutorial will be very helpful for me!

[WindStreak_]

Discovering the DK Summit Gap Jump back on the Wii instantly made it my favourite track, even though I ended up only being able to do the first half of it. Thanks for sharing all of these huge shortcuts!

[Conqueror_Seme]

At the end of a near-17 min video, I wasn't expecting to get hype at the very end! "..1 mushroom blah blah... OR! YOU GO TO THE RIGHT..." Shortcat is bestcat
