- how important is the traction stat? this determines how much you slip on slippery road like mud, ice, snow, water, and dirt.

Shortcat these are my favourite videos could you please do the rest of the maximum and minimum stat combos as you haven’t done lowest mini turbo or lowest/highest weight

Hey I appreciated playing with you! Was fun to match your combo :)
PS boo lake was indeed my fault. Did not feel confident going low route
could it be the real liam???
Yo it's the real deal
Very well played there @Liam,
Just out of curiosity, did you know what he was playing for and also to go for 1-2?😂
@@peterrainer3723yeah I figured it was traction. A couple races before I was on the same combo but with Ancient Tires. And top 2 is the only way to end!
What a legend
I just love how Shortcat is always able to find a perfect rivalry or companionship with a random online person.
You mean J Perm
Those given to me by fate are the most important

i went back to the beginning of the video to see if he said it like that

Wait just a minute
traction, a stat that has a minimal use on not a lot of tracks: not hidden stat
mini turbo, a stat that is used constantly, used by the most important mechanic in the game (drifting), used everywhere all the time, the most important stat in the game: hidden stat
Honestly, I think the Traction stat would be more useful if it affected your off-road speed. It still wouldn't be an amazing stat if that was the case, but it would at least be usable on most tracks instead of nearly useless.
Before this video, I was certain that it did.
I think Mario kart 7 had an off road stat.
@@drrobocar6459 it did, and Red Monster was the best tire for it.
@@heinrichdubloon3139 Yeah, you could drift with them in the off-road
In wii they had offroad though!
For anyone confused, it's called grip in the UK version
Sup, can loc come in your crib?
thanks mate
oi lad my combo rather grippy today innit
Ye bruv it's truly spiffin' mate innit
Wagwan piff ting whats ya bbm pin?
The friendship formed between Liam and Vertically Challenged Domestic Feline over the course of the video, and them getting top 2 with a suboptimal combo is truly beautiful.
Slippery roads also effect your Top Speed, which is determined by Traction. 0.75 Traction would result in a *-2%* or *-3%* Top Speed reduction (depending on the category of slippery road). 5.75 Traction would result in a *-0%* or *-1%* Top Speed reduction.
Every point (0.25) of Traction reduces the slowdown by *0.1%*
While you can adapt to the slipping part of Traction, you have no control over the slowdown effect. Blooper Ink is also effected by Traction, so it might do something (even though it’s still little) even on courses without slippery road.
You'll have to be a giga nerd to notice a 3% speed decrease 🤓
@@wile123456 clearly you've never played Dead By Daylight
@@TheRealMycanthrope I'm sorry for your loss...
Oh that's actually huge, i didn't know about the speed thing. For anyone wondering, 6-7% is the difference between the slowest combo (1 speed) and fastest combo (20 speed), and also the difference between 0 coins and 10 coins.
In other words, about 2 or 3 points of traction is the same as 1 point of speed (on slippery road), which is huge!
I'm learning so much today. Loving this.
Shortcat and Liam are the True Traction Team! Yeah, I've never worried too much about the traction stat in this game. It does seem very situational in your average online race. I mean, I could see it coming in handy for like Time Trials, though.
Finally bowser junior getting the recognition he deserves
Agreed
Indeed
Yes
He actually has the same Mini turbo as Yoshi’s class
nintendo really thinks this is a more important stat than mini-turbo
Out of all your "max x stat" videos, I think this one felt the most hopeless to begin with, like it didn't matter AT ALL. It was nice to see the narrative of you and Liam making the push for top two at the end. I literally clapped when you pulled it off
It's because the traction stat doesn't have any visual difference for us viewers, it just looks like he's playing a ugly combo. But for him who's actually playing the game, he can feel the diference
18:49 Omega props on Liam, who went wide on the last turns so you could get to top 3. Didn't work as expected, but Liam is now your bro 4(th) life!
The companionship between shortcat and liam has to be the most awesome thing ever. there should be more videos with liam
I honestly love your natural cadence and commentary, if you live streamed I would watch every one
Literally never played Mario Kart, but these videos are getting me really interested.
Me too
You should definitely play Mario kart. It takes some practice, but if you get good, you can usually beat your friends in parties
@@teabown02if your even semi good online you’ll absolutely destroy friends at parties. It’s honestly not even fun for me because it’s too easy to win
Bowser does not have to worry about paternety test, peach has good traction
I guess Traction Alleles are Recessive
Shortcat getting 3rd on Waluigi stadium continues to prove that he has plot armor on the track
Shortcat is my new favorite TH-camr. Over Christmas, I played tons of Mario kart with my siblings and wanted to get better. I found shortcat and find him informative and super entertaining. thanks shortcat!
Because shortcat is life, shortcat is god, shortcat is the answer
His videos are the reason I'm back on the track
@@PaulMenden5659I’m actually so much better now
"Does Bowser need to do a paternity test? Should he be worried?" I LAUGHED SO HARD😭
"Mom can we have offroad stat?"
"We have offroad stat at home."
The offroad stat at home:
it’s crazy to see how much influence short cat has. i’ve been here since like 4 or 5 digit subs and it’s so cool to see him randomly racing with a fan almost every video
That bowser at around 6:15 using the worst traction is defiantly a paid actor
My dad ahhhhh😫
Being a Bowser Jr. enjoyer ever since Smash 4, this video with its incredible tale of friendship and brotherhood between you and Liam made my day, what a great ending too
I learn so much about this game through watching these themed videos, thank you shortcat:)
I was bored today and decided to recreate the Shortcat Mii. When playing, I forgot to change back to my Mii and appeared as Shortcat in the lobby. I went on a massive roll, winning a bunch of races, and surpassed 8000 VR, so thanks for the good luck, Shortcat Mii:)
Watching your videos has gotten me back into Mario Kart again and I really enjoy it.
Thanks for the great content and also for the educational videos, Shortcat! :)
Thanks so much shortcat
I don’t know if this is from when I asked you but there’s enough max traction combos I think you could have also choose but you choose the one I suggested. Thanks either way. The ending was satisfactory.
I like how informative this is.
Not really into competitive MK (just too hectic for my liking), so I don't know much background, so it's quite nice to get these informations in an entertaining way.
It hurts my eyes when I see max traction but the bar isn't full
Thanks for that Nintendo
Really nice edit using the replay to see whats going on with Liam on Rosalinas Ice World :)
And nice Top 2 finish 😁
I love how you always get these super awesome people in your lobbies lol
pretty new to the channel and have been binge watching these videos and this is the first upload since i subbed and it might be my favourite ‼️ the liam friendship was amazing
Brilliant video shortcat. Will definitely use this combo after I get home lots of love and support from the uk❤
Shortcat I appreciate all the effort you put into your videos and you have taught me so much about Mariokart, Thank You! Best TH-camr ever!
I literally felt like cheering when you got top 2! 🥳😂 W duo!! 💪 Also the Liam cam was awesome!
Great video. I love these videos. Keep it up man
I discovered your channel a few days ago because I needed some help getting less terrible at Mario Kart, and even though I'm still terrible I am loving these rivalries and whole storylines that just come out of nowhere! This one was particularly wholesome, Liam was amazing!
Dude, you are great. Absolutely love watching your videos. You seem like you genuinely enjoy playing which makes the viewing of the videos so much more enjoyable.
The Liam Cam is an amazing addition! Adds a lot to the video🙏
Always a treat to see shortcat upload! 😊
Liam is a real homie! I got hyped when there was a top 2 at the end
Love your videos keep up the good work :D
I have been waiting for the Traction episode. Let's go!
I would not be shocked if Shortcat found a way to get himself into MarioKart X as a custom character at this point...
Guess we will need to wait
Just came back from a vacation, checked my phone and saw a shortcat upload. LET'S GO! 🤩
Dint know you haved a mario kart Channel 😮
Daang, actually a well made video
Hi shortcat!! Love your content!! Also, will you be doing a separate video about minimum traction??
Day 2 of asking Shortcat to try and win with smart steering
Looking forward to pro guide!
i think if next mario kart does the whole pick your stats thing again, every stat should have a use not only for something gimmicky like "better drift turning on slippery road" but also something that applies on most tracks like "lower deceleration on offroad" or "better drift turning in general". while i'm at it, would be cool if they separated mini turbo speed, length, and charge time across like.. speed stat, miniturbo stat, and idk traction stat i guess.
Hello brother I recently sub ❤and would like to say thank you for understanding bit more in mario kart 8 deluxe. Now I am so much happy to see you pick my boi Bowser jr ❤️
Another entertaining and informative video. Thanks shortcat.
We need a full video with the Shortcat Mii once time for the OG subscribers 😸
I remember this channel having just around 5k subs when your videos kept being suggested to me lol
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS U GOT ME BACK TO PLAYING MARIO KART MAN
This was a great Idea
I mean lets get rid of the most useless stat. brilliant
I'm playing at 2k vr and the moment and I saw a shortfish! Fun video as always 👍 just wanted to let u know they're more short animals haha
This is what I’ve been waiting for. LET’S GOOOO!!!!
This video was very entertaining and awesome.
your vids make my day better
Video idea: use combos in loading screens
How do you get different loading screens
@@AidenEllersick ok
Traction also slightly affects how fast you go on these "slippery roads". Where on sand/ice, 1 traction stat gives you 97-98% speed, 20(max) traction gives you 99-100% speed. Not much difference but it is still cool. Also if you didnt want the bounce, Ancient Tires have the same traction stat
Thanks for finally making this vid
I've wanted this for so long!!😅😅
I have been waiting for this.
the liam cam was an absolutely hilarious addition, what a great way to up the stakes!
My kids love watching your vids shortcat! We play mk8 all together. My son who is 6 is named Liam too, so he especially loved this video! Cheers from Texas!
the "MY DAD!" part cracked me up tbh
love your content btw, I told u about how JPG could beat u in a race ;)
best day of my life when u responded AND UR WINNING STREAK ENDED
Very informative thank you
Your way of talking reminds me of carykh, i love it
We need so more full videos there so entertaining!!
Shortcat: when I say something you can usually trust me
Shortcat almost every episode: nice I’m getting a speed bonus since I’m playing Mario on Mario’s circuit
I don’t think you guys understand how happy I get when shortcat posts 😂❤
Are you Johnathan Permutation? :)
YOU MADE MY WEEKEND
finally someone else used this besides me, its always fun to use, Ive used this one so much that im pretty good with it even on tracks it has no use on
Ive been waiting for this one
The teamwork racing with Liam was so wholesome :3
Great video shortcat! I like the bowser jr combo ✨
P.S. i think you put "max invincibility" instead of traction in the description
I just saw a „Shortfox“ from the Netherlands today while playing! Maybe you’ll play against them some day haha. The Shortanimal family is growing
Da king is back baby he neva miss
Shortcat, we NEED the advanced guide ASAP!!! (♥️ loving the content)
Finally maximum and minimum traction! Now you played the combos all 5 worst/best stats!
I don’t know why this took me so many videos to notice but you’re Canadian?? I feel so represented rn as a Canadian myself. Which province if you don’t mind sharing?
Love the videos btw, learning how to play better every video!
Nice video!
Traction is very helpful for shortcuts where it's about getting through rough road
nice vids j perm! I'm all for you making different types of vids. good luck!
4:27 It would seem traction is a recessive gene in bowser’s family
Biology reference
Two guys that dont know eachother helping them out is something that i love when it happens on the internet
The fact that he does this kind challange and the combo actually has balanced stats
Glad to see my boy Bowser jr. being repped in one of these videos
Great video
The Liam cam was an amazing addition.
Favorite youtuber and I barely play this game
Oh hey a shortcat video. Nice 👍
This is actually one of my favorite kart combos lol I can't explain it, it just feels good to control and I love the look of it. Second favorite is Shy Guy/Streetle/Sponge Wheels
this guy has singularly gotten me back into mario kart, dont know how, he's just got that power
Are you ever planning on playing other games on your channel? I love the mariokart content but I think other games would be just as fun to watch.
The callback to the max invincibility episode was hilarious
Hey shortcat big fan and a question does it even matter to get the whole golden combo? Cus its dogwater for online races.
