Hey very big thanks for putting one of my ghosts in this video at #32! This video does a exceptional job at showing the hardest staff ghosts in the pack and may help other people in the future who struggle against these ghosts and good job on getting all 250 gold stars!
Ty! Nice to know many will find use in this. And absolutely, your pinewood ghost has left me with a blister on my finger that isn’t seeming to go away lol, very deserving of its spot on the list
Can definitely agree with alot of the top tracks mentioned in here, despite "only" having 215 gold stars myself as of right now and haven't tried all of them yet. With the constant new track updates lately I'm struggling to keep up. Great video! Very entertaining and high quality.
oh yeah, the updates are so annoying when trying to go for 250, at least council are focusing more on not having insane ghosts in the game now lol. glad you found the video entertaining and good luck with the rest of your journey to 250!
@@Etterbeer they were definitely both tough but not absolutely insane, wolf would be #31 and DS Wario would be #22. From what i've heard, council are laying off adding more top 10 ghosts into the game lol
Test this video honestly proves how hard you work and your determination too provide amazing content, which you of course fulfilled, as someone who has no patience to beat ghosts I still loved being around when you managed to beat hard ghosts. -Luck charm PS - who is that NOTTHENAVY guy he seems cool
ty navy! it was great to have you there joining call on the exact attempt i would beat it, probably couldnt have done a lot of those ghosts without your luck :p. and ye idk who that guy is, seems like a weirdo tbh
24:08 i remember getting the zipper turn down pretty well as a kid back in the WFC days, pretty much the only advanced strat i knew lol. I wasn't 100% consistent, but I was consistent enough to where i would try it every time, even in regular races, esp since i was bad at the track otherwise.
amazing video, watched the whole thing and really enjoyed it. been going for some golds these past two months and i'm only at 76 rn, this vid is inspiring as heck lol
Great video, and I'm honestly surprised that I saw my Waluigi's Motocross ghost on here at all, especially over tracks like Big Express City or Lost Fortress (latter of the two left me with injuries in the following couple days after I obtained the gold star). WM was never really a track I've spent a serious amount of time on, and I don't consider myself to be a top level player either, so I honestly never believed that people would have trouble with my ghost. Even before the track got updated, I had an even faster time of a 1:58.3xx which had more optimized lines, but I was told to nerf it due to several people expressing their concerns for the ghosts' difficulty relative to how the track plays. For the rest of the video, I can agree with pretty much most of the spots on your list, and it was even nice to know about some new strats that I didn't know existed since I haven't played this game seriously in roughly two years.
Oh damn, I definitely still stand by your WM ghost being a tough one, I did have pace quickly but remaining consistent on that track is a nightmare lol, if it wasn’t for your wheelie turn on lap 2, god knows how long it would’ve taken me lol
Seeing this late, but great video. I have been waiting for someone to make another one since Lucas' is very outdated. Very accurate and well made, nice job.
Amazing video Test! Last summer I achieved 250 gold stars, but lost it due to the updates since then. Thanks for the insights, and hopefully this helps me get back there :)
on magnetic sanctuary, the rail doesn't save even close to 1s, I'd say .5 at most. So you just have to be around 1s faster entering lap 3 and ur good to go around it and not deal with the fire pillars
this list is crazy to me in hindsight knowing that probably at least half of these ghosts had to be significantly nerfed from their original state (some by multiple seconds) lol
@@testsubject1666 yeah it's very funny to me but it would have been really bad if we let a lot of them through in hindsight lol. as some examples off the top of my head: Dragon Burial Grounds was nerfed by 1s after a hotfix update Desert Fort was nerfed by ~0.4s iirc (might be wrong but the time's on chadsoft) Honeybee Hideout was slightly nerfed after the update (hard to tell by how much since the track was a bit faster i think) Melting Magma Melee was nerfed by over 1.3s New Moon Manor was nerfed by 0.9s Volcanic Valley was nerfed but i forget by how much Wuhu Island was nerfed by ~0.8s we still have to do a lot of nerfing ghosts since everyone keeps trying to submit top 3 times in ctgp lol
@@carp4006 desert fort and new moon seem alright being that much faster, perhaps even dbg but maybe im crazy. the fact wuhu was nerfed by 0.8 is insane to me, that wouldve been close to impossible
When I first did 250 almost 3 years ago, undiscovered offlimit was one of the hardest ones for me. Idk why, I just kept hitting the koopa. Took me at least 3-4 hours.
Great video dude, you also have a really nice voice. I personally find DBG a lot harder than you ranked it. My hardest is Honeybee Hideout and that took me 7-8 hours while DBG has already taken me 10+ hours and I haven't been on pace into the shroomless L2 once, quite far from it. It's awkward to play imo and the halfpipes with the following ramp are just a chore to get right, maybe I'm just doing something wrong tho.
thanks, your compliments mean alot! and yeah idk, i personally had very little trouble with dbg, maybe cuz ive just always been better at tech tracks but im not sure, youll definitely get it soon!
Hey, thanks!! I’m not gonna be updating this video, definitely not anytime soon anyway since I stopped playing the game over a year ago now. If you’re looking for an updated version then I’d highly recommend Jayde’s top 30 video!
I find the Suzuka Circuit ghost rather easy, although I can fully admit it's due to familiarity with its layout from seeing real-life races on it, as well as driving it in simulators. It does not translate well to MKWii physics, though. (Not to mention how unrealistic the height difference is, there is barely any on the custom track.)
That would probably be much harder than the hardest because of how so many ghosts are 1st tries, would be hard to differentiate between the difficulty in a lot of ghosts
I’ve actually beaten new moon manor hardest ghost I’ve ever done by so much took me ten days cause I’m bad at the game but Yh shit is tough. Edit I’ve beaten desert mushroom ruins only took 2 hours I’m improving shocked to see it so high on this list
@@testsubject1666 you asked for my wrong opinions and though I don’t dare to touch half of these and have only beaten cheeseland and new moon I can say that as someone who has tted garden of dreams and glimmer express trains for around 5 hours wasnt counting those are not as hard as new moon manor i never completed a glimmer lap in 5 hours since no one told me how to do certain strats but if I was taught he strats that ghost shouldn’t take long it’s 1 million times slower than new moon and the track isn’t much harder also never had a split on pace to beat garden of dreams ehem zero consistency but I’m within .9 of it and getting within 1.5 seconds of it took thirty minutes while on new moon it took like 6 hours just to be within 2 seconds they are around the same speed tbh one track is just harder imo also the reason I can’t get a split on pace in garden of dreams is I have gotten way worse at the game over time I did have a few short time periods where I was decent at the game tho when I hit 9k vr I somehow was also good at tts when I beat new moon and when I beat celestial ruins and a ton of other 6 rated ghosts
Yeah very tough ghost for sure, for the moon jump I recommend hopping off at an angle so you don’t overshoot it & hop right as the colour of the road changes!

Update I have beaten both superstar dystopia and wolf castlegrounds a couple months ago during december but not pipe underworld which right now Im working on something else
Definetly i would put rainbow road higher up, it is hard, but you should just learn kmj, its relatively easy even if you only do kmj and not jak/ps, still really good video i agree with the rest
Yeah, Kart moon jump definitely would’ve made RR easier, probably in the same way that teracy strat would’ve made CoD easier, but I’m bad at the moon jump as it is and not very good with a kart at all lol, probably would’ve been just as hard for me on kart as on bike
This proves how outdated my ancient video on this is, good to see someone else covering it. Very entertaining keep it up 👍

Honeybee Hideout was slightly nerfed after the update (hard to tell by how much since the track was a bit faster i think)
Melting Magma Melee was nerfed by over 1.3s
New Moon Manor was nerfed by 0.9s
Volcanic Valley was nerfed but i forget by how much
Wuhu Island was nerfed by ~0.8s

First off Amazing Video, Second Are you going to Update this video because of all of the new harder ghosts?
Hey, thanks!! I’m not gonna be updating this video, definitely not anytime soon anyway since I stopped playing the game over a year ago now. If you’re looking for an updated version then I’d highly recommend Jayde’s top 30 video!
Brilliant video... How do even decide with all of those? gg on 250! might make my own one of these lists 🤔
ty! I actually ranked them as i went along so by the time i got 250, i already had my top 50 lol
Extremely well done video.
What do you think of Daisy's Palace? For me that ghost was really tough.
I think I rated it a 5/10, the track can be a bit weird to get used to but the ghost using bullet bike makes it easier to outspeed
@@testsubject1666 same because I beaten that one very easily
Only one day after upload and CTGP Staff already decide to make this video outdated... that DS Wario Stadium ghost got hands
That ghost getting into CTGP is one reason I wanted this video out before the update lol, that one’s gonna be a grind
I made it into the video, TWICE!
The sheet is not available anymore :((

what is the "BKT" you always mention after the staff time?
Best Known Time, basically the World Record :)
@@testsubject1666 I already thought its "Best X time" but I didn't figure the K out, thanks anyways

i used to play gd (i was a massive bash lol) but the last time i played it was a few years ago, i intend to pick it up again at some point
@@testsubject1666 That's cool, GD is one of those games that you tend to drop though, but you often find the urge to pick it back up again.

Just wondering why is pinewood path listed as a 3/10 on your spreadsheet when it's in the top 50 in this vid? Also, phenomenal video!
oh, i think i forgot to update it lol, it should also be an 8 on there but the old version was a 3 cuz of the respawn. and ty, means alot!
sunset forest is a really hard ghost for me and really underatted
the shroom cut on sunset is definitely quite tough and it caused me to have a bit of trouble with ghost for sure
yeah very tech heavy track
You should do the top 50 easy expert staff ghosts
That would probably be much harder than the hardest because of how so many ghosts are 1st tries, would be hard to differentiate between the difficulty in a lot of ghosts
I see
Awsome video!
ty! :)
Kinda sucks how your number two spot has been cheesed due to the newly discovered respawn cut, but oh well. Overall though, great video!
Yeah kinda sucks, same happened for cheese land too :/. But ty!
