@Shortcat321 I mean, Troy has been a long time veteran of MKWii and MK8, mostly MKWii, but still, he is but a god at this game and likely always will be. I agree with how scientists should examine his skills before hitting 30K lol.
This feels crazy when Troy used to be the one teaching his friends like Justin, Sam, Colton, Matt, etc. the shortcuts for the shortcut challenge videos Troy used to make all those years ago, now Shortcat is teaching Troy the hardstuff in MK8.
The OG days. The best days. I’ll always have RTCT and the shortcut challenges in my heart… now he’s not doing it for fun, he’s doing it as his literal job. Time goes too fast man:(
@@AbsoluteLunatic123 Same, I grew up watching the shortcut challenges, his old custom track streams and RTCT all those years ago back in late 2012/early 2013 which was when I first started watching him. I was only 7 years old at the time and I just turned 19 a few days back.
@@LiamDeege that is absolutely crazy. I started watching around 2015 but I was always going through his channel I feel I’ve actually watched all his videos despite only discovering him in 2015. The nostalgia…
This is the content we needed. Both two legends teaching their friends their respective games. Two of the most enjoyable,likeable funny people on YT. Thanks Troy and Shortcat.
Y’all have a chemistry of sorts that would be cool to see more of. For sure more collabs should happen but I’d even say I’d listen to a podcast of you two talking about Mariokart, Nintendo, and gaming in general.
I just watched the first Captain America from 2011 a few days ago and I liked it a lot, especially as Hugo Weaving is in it and he’s one of my favorite actors as of late.
@@LiamDeege winter soldier is a really great movie too. Excellent fight choreography, great emotional beats, and a pretty cool setup for the rest of the series
Practicing rock jump on DK mountain Me: Several hours in and madness prevails. Peachette's face has left a permanent mark on the stone Troy: Nails it second try
i love this community... we all got into mk as this anger-inducing childrens party game and may end up with people like these two guys, working together, teaching eachother and hyping eachother up. basically a 180 degree turn
26:10 one thing Shortcat hasn't mentioned that i've found is you sometimes need to hold down over the gap, I've had quite a few attempts while learning this where I do everything right as far as I can tell but then don't get enough air, clip the track, and fall under
This is how the top mk leaderboard players drive. Players like Frozen, L1am, Haupi and EmilP. These guys all had world records on certain tracks. Troy is gonna be wild :D
Troy needs to start bagging if he wants to learn from shortcat Also this vid got uploaded the same time as shortcats collab with you BEST 30 SECONDS EVER
This collab was one of my favorites. Shortcat is one of the youtubers I watch almost everyday. You two have easily the best comfy content to watch with my wife when we're just hanging out at night.
I loved this! I’m generally good at the game, but don’t know much of the tech like this. What an amazing learning opportunity! More please! I’m subbing to both channels.
This was the most wholesome Mario Kart video I've seen. Like an older brother teaching a younger brother how to play a game! 😄 Shortcat gave a really good tutorial and Troy really picked these shortcuts up quick! I actually didn't know a few of these shortcuts, so I have to try these out. Granted online is a totally different story as you have to contend with getting bashed by items while properly performing these!
I don’t get why people are why people are calling him that we don’t even know if it’s actually him and I think shortcat doesn’t want to talk about it he doesn’t reply to any of them so like let him be stop bringing it up..
@legoparkour727 yea but even if they are maybe he doesn’t want to talk abt it? if he still hasn’t told anyone has no one else thought of he doesn’t feel comfortable to say it? a lot of people think they are the same person anyways it’s just never been confirmed by him so why are we still bring it up imo..
29:32-31:45 YES!!!! The Mario Kart Wii credits theme has finally returned to replay all hard shortcuts successfully made! Arguably the best Mario Kart credits theme in the history of the Nintendo franchise! LET’S GO!!!!
I saw the thumbnail, and I instantly thought back to the wave of adrenaline and excitement that my sister and I had when we discovered the that bouncing off the trolley was possible. We could not believe it - though I can't for the life of me remember which of the two of us pulled it off (despite the fact that it was of the Wario trolley being very clear to me) - we haven't been able to replicate it either. Now I might be able too... What a video!
both of these guys are elite. never played mk8 but love shortcat. played a lot of mkwii and love troy. the vids from both channels are both S+ tier. literally could not get any better.
This was great. I was a little surprised that on Piranha Plant Cove y'all didn't go for the full shortcut on the second one, where there is a miniturbo trick off the ledge, landing on top of the wall and going into a drift, then going over the top of all the rock and landing much further around the corner with a UMT.
he's too good, stop him before he beats all the world records (nobody tell him you should hop on the cannon gliders instead of tricking at 26:24, don't see 26:56 for what you should do)
You say this now but when its competitive(lounge tier fg+, clan wars, its kinda required to use it since youre likely to get targeted by others when using a different combo. @OtisCluck
@@OtisCluck zero skill? driving with all combos takes basicaly the same ammoiuunt of skill, if not more for meta combo bc u have to do lots of tec with ur high miniterbo and kinda low speed
Love the Mario kart Wii credits music at the end ❤️❤️ Reminds me of all the time I spent on 100%-ing my save file when I was 8 (oh god I remember mirror mode, CPUs where so hard to beat !)
I'm by no means an expert at some of these courses, but I've been finally able to get my barely over 2 min record on Wario Stadium, down to 1min 57, just by mastering these time saves. These are great!
On the Tram Bounce, I tried to hit it on time trials against my friend just for fun. I was the only one who hit the Tram Bounce and I won the whole fun game day we had.
I dont know if you've done this yet, but you should do a shortcut challenge video with shortcat, kinda like how you would do shortcut challenges back in the day
Troy is a mutant with secret mario kart superpowers that lets him nail shortcuts right away. Scientists should study him before he reaches 30K VR
Jperm?

Dude is like: Not if I have anything to say about it
Shortcat saying purrrrrfect is just so goooood 3:37
19:51 shortcat’s stunned silence then the “what the hell” is so funny 💀💀
Fr it was surprising to here him say that even though that’s barely a swear he’s just that family friendly 😂

This is one of my favourite videos from you recently! Would love to see a part 2!
Mayro
Would like to see you guys do some videos together again soon. 👍🏾
Hello Mayro
Yeah and we need a Mushroom Gorge Gap jump

When he said grab some popcorn, I looked down at the time, then went and actually made some popcorn to eat.
I’m so happy you collabed with Shortcat! He’s recently become my favorite Mariokart 8 creator!
Troy has some serious competition now 😮
He always has.
More like Shortcat has some serious competition!!
Nah shortcat is just better
My two favorite Mario Kart TH-camrs coming together to make this banger
0:35 It’s technically considered “Shortcut time with Shortcat!” Music to my ears!
Good one Zach!
i love this community... we all got into mk as this anger-inducing childrens party game and may end up with people like these two guys, working together, teaching eachother and hyping eachother up. basically a 180 degree turn
these two collab video's have been an amazing experience to watch, thank you guys for making my day

So excited for this collab! Been waiting for the day since I found shortcats channel
Troy needs to start bagging if he wants to learn from shortcat
Also this vid got uploaded the same time as shortcats collab with you
BEST 30 SECONDS EVER
20:02 me when I see my final exam knowing well I didn’t study
This collab was one of my favorites. Shortcat is one of the youtubers I watch almost everyday. You two have easily the best comfy content to watch with my wife when we're just hanging out at night.
I love seeing this kind of stuff and trying to do it myself, its so satisfying when u finally get them even if not perfectly made
Shortcat: “This guy is so talented!!!”
Troy: *gets thwomped*
I loved this! I’m generally good at the game, but don’t know much of the tech like this. What an amazing learning opportunity! More please! I’m subbing to both channels.
Its really fun to learn shortcuts together with troy, pls make a part 2 of learning shorcuts, this was a very nice video :D
I love that shortcut montage at the end of the vid. Was really well put together.

Props to Troy for giving recognition to smaller creators such as Jperm.
shortcat cant even catch a break on another channel 💀
We dont we just call him Dylan
I don’t get why people are why people are calling him that we don’t even know if it’s actually him and I think shortcat doesn’t want to talk about it he doesn’t reply to any of them so like let him be stop bringing it up..
@@IconicMills1234they both play Mariokart and both have their own website both are Canadian and sound the same pretty clear that it is the same person

That ending montage was beautiful
The fun of letting go of a in drift, play somic and sega all-stars racing for more ;) (the first one, duh, it's superior)
29:32-31:45 YES!!!! The Mario Kart Wii credits theme has finally returned to replay all hard shortcuts successfully made! Arguably the best Mario Kart credits theme in the history of the Nintendo franchise! LET’S GO!!!!
It was at this moment that Zach knew he f'cked up!!!!!!
29:31 hey give me a warning before you do a compilation to the MKW end credits theme, I wasn't prepared for the goosebumps
2 videos with the same idea from my 2 favorite mario kart creators on my birthday is absolutley legendary! :)
The ultimate crossover holy it finally happened
I love how this video went from learning shortcuts to shortcat and Twd just complimenting each other for 30 minutes straight.
I saw the thumbnail, and I instantly thought back to the wave of adrenaline and excitement that my sister and I had when we discovered the that bouncing off the trolley was possible. We could not believe it - though I can't for the life of me remember which of the two of us pulled it off (despite the fact that it was of the Wario trolley being very clear to me) - we haven't been able to replicate it either. Now I might be able too... What a video!
Thank you Troy I literally just made a grilled cheese 😮💨 I have my snacks and I seen you uploaded ❤️
Troy just downloaded the shortcuts like Neo with Kung Fu
It's been over 6 years since you last put out a MKDS video. It'd be cool to see a MKDS worldwides video
shortcat should make merch
PURRR-FECT
both of these guys are elite. never played mk8 but love shortcat. played a lot of mkwii and love troy. the vids from both channels are both S+ tier. literally could not get any better.
I’m learning so much from this pairing. Great help from both of you. I’ve learned a ton from both of you! (That invisible tech SMH)
This is a certified Shortcat Reunion classic!
Yessss I've always wanted to be certified
20:02 SHORTCAT CUSSED I JUST CLIPED THAT
hell isn't a cuss
Has he ever said it? Did he say it on his channel?
@@YTIconicIan29 he has on his jperm channel i think
@Xris10BUL I don’t think JPerm and Shortcat are the same person although they are similar in like everything
@@YTIconicIan29 i mean when does coincidence become reality? there lives are too similar to not be the same person
This was such a helpful video, with the mt -> jump before off-road. Can’t wait to try it out later
i like how shortcat says purrrfect to insinuate that he is indeed a cat
If Nintendo made an education system, Shortcat and Troy would be the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe teachers.
I love this content!
It is helpful because shortcat teaches repeatedly and in detail.
I want to see this content more!
Thanks for including the highlight reel at the end!

This is the crossover we wanted and needed a legend in Wii and a legend in 8 Meet up!!
I knew shortcats voice sounded familiar but then I realized he teached me the rubiks cube
This is the best mario kart video collaboration I have ever seen
Love to see a Troy and shortcat collab 🔥🔥
1:33 average ageing of Troy’s statements
No wayyyy we got that collab
If this gets 10k like Troy has to do a 400cc cup in mk8d with Shortcat,Rod and Mayro
You used Peach in the video, respect
W
I mean, she’s basically a reskin of the filthy lizard, so I don’t respect anyone who plays her, using the meta combo required zero skill
You say this now but when its competitive(lounge tier fg+, clan wars, its kinda required to use it since youre likely to get targeted by others when using a different combo. @OtisCluck
@@OtisCluck zero skill? driving with all combos takes basicaly the same ammoiuunt of skill, if not more for meta combo bc u have to do lots of tec with ur high miniterbo and kinda low speed
Very nice video, would love to watch some more. Learned a lot and I have been playing both TT and Online for a long time.
This is a cool video idea I have to say, I just turned 19 two days ago and this made my day seeing a video like this Troy.
So much to learn from this! Thank you Troy and Shortcat! 👏🏻
If we have more TWD and Shortcat collab videos in the future I will be so happy
25:10 shortcat: ur so talented
Meanwhile troy: [gets squished by thwomp]
I really like the idea of teaching each other your main MK game strats
the collab we didn't know we needed
I'm so proud of myself for finding the shortcut on Rainbow Road Wii by myself, its so satisfying!
Short cat is so supportive and kind in this 😂
more collabs please. y'all two have such good energy
Thanks for listening
Great vid! Keep the cuts coming!
Love the Mario kart Wii credits music at the end ❤️❤️ Reminds me of all the time I spent on 100%-ing my save file when I was 8 (oh god I remember mirror mode, CPUs where so hard to beat !)
25:07 This guy is so talented!
Thwomp: *smashes*
I didn’t exactly try to dodge it lol
Didn't know the mute city ramp was offroad. I always released too late thinking it was better
This collab is so hype
the dragon drift way gap jump shortcut is a must learn
25:06 "this guy is so lalended!" **proceeds to get flattened by a thwomp**
Hey I already the shortcut and this wasn’t a race 🤷
I'm by no means an expert at some of these courses, but I've been finally able to get my barely over 2 min record on Wario Stadium, down to 1min 57, just by mastering these time saves. These are great!
Hey TWD98, Nice to see you again its been a while for me!
On the Tram Bounce, I tried to hit it on time trials against my friend just for fun. I was the only one who hit the Tram Bounce and I won the whole fun game day we had.
Came from Shortcat's video, this was an awesome collab!!
Would love to see a part 2. Especially the donut planes 3 shortcut would be aweseome to see
I've done the Tram Bounce so many times lol, it's actually kinda easy for me
@Shortcat great content. Really fun! Can you make a video with the most common fails when taking shortcuts and how to fix them?
Ojhhhh the ending compilation felt sooo nostalgic with the song!
31:47 lol
Wait until Troy finds out about the shroom shortcut on Piranha Plant Cove that saves over a second but is the hardest in the game
Close enough, welcome back 10 level shortcut challenge
Mushroom gorge gap cut over the fence should be in part 2
for the tram shortcut, if you hit the blue toad on the side he will instantly turn and correct you to the right way
it might be a bit slower buts its easier for me
we all love the MKWii credits theme for the reason it's perfect
I dont know if you've done this yet, but you should do a shortcut challenge video with shortcat, kinda like how you would do shortcut challenges back in the day
I've accidentally done that second wii rainbow road shortcut a couple times
i didnt even know it was faster
You guys should do a follow up competing as a team in each game great stuff
Just now I realized ShortCat is a word pun with shortcut
yesss now with this and the rod-gyrodos colab i will be able to master every shortcut!
amazing video! love the collab of you and shortcut
