- Using drifts and charging mini turbos (drift boosts) is the most important technique in mario kart. How bad is no drifting? Everything else is allowed (including smart steering).
How to get Better at Mario Kart: • FULL Beginner Guide | ...
I try bagging, frontrunning, and 200cc!
Combos used:
Wario, (Mercedes-Benz) GLA Car, GLA Tires, Wario Wing
Waluigi, Gold Kart, Slim Tires, Wario Wing
I cannot believe he would LIE to us at the end. My heart is now torn apart upon watching this vid. 10/10 would stay tuned for more.
I almost did leave too😂
I thought it would be bad to end without beating the challenge, so I simply rewrote.history 🤫
History is writen by the victors, but in this case….
That ending was hilarious
FUCK
I love that there's always lore behind these challenges
the expanded shortcat universe
@@depalodorI'm so invested in the shortcat world lore at this point
@@soup3ppee World building is insanely potent that's for sure
Wario's tires survived a shortcat video!
Lore?
I've done this a bit before, but I do it in high handling combos, and you can even get some mini turbos if you turn really hard for a while
I think I got 1 mini turbo in this haha.
I actually did try some higher handling but my results were not any better, as I predicted. I'm mainly using items to catch up and smart steering is great while using a speed item, so handling wasn't that important.
If I had beaten the challenge with smart steering right away, I might have done no smart steering. In that case I'd go for high handling
@@Shortcat321 I commented before I saw that you switched to a high handling combo! You should try doing it with more mini turbo as well, will will get one on most turns. Still, probably no front-running lmao
shortcat are you j perm yes or no?
I think high Handling Combos actually make it harder to build a Mini Turbo because the car takes longer to Autodrift where as something with terrible Handling will enter Drift quicker. Not to mention higher Handling means your Car will turn more Sharply when Drifting and we all know Sharp turns are kinda rare.
I'm considering running TTs for several Combos on one track.
@@hugomallory875 he is lol
Well, his wheels may be pristine, but the rest of the car is definitely a dented up mess for all the trees he's hitting.
babe wake up shortcat just uploaded
Lets go 😄
Unironically so hype when he uploads
I’m awake 💕
I'm so happy 😊
Thanks for notifying me babe ❤
I love how you did a story set-up. "Wario doesn't want to ruin his new tires." 😂
i remember when i played mario kart wii i didnt know how to drift and only learnt after i stopped playing the game, so as a kid i spent hours and hours trying to get gold in all grand prixs without drifting, took forever but i did end up pulling it off
*laughs in mkwii automatic drift*
@@Shortcat321 true lol
I did the same smh
That one friend who comes over to play some Mario kart always does this
Are they good tho 👀
Tbf it’s because it’s just on by default and the game doesn’t even tell you. Super annoying I have to teach my parents how to turn it off every single time
Yup thats me, i came over just once and never come back
Smart Steering could honestly be it's own challenge.
Seriously, I drive so bad with smart steering lol
disgusting pfp
9:20 smart steering oo oo oo
It's good for really new players since it mostly keeps you on the track and moving but you basically can't do shortcuts and it will get real finicky with where it'll let you go
i would 100% watch that hahaha
Not gona lie, the end got me
Also that win with Wario It was all luck in your favor
Good video as always shortcat!
4:03 The one time the boo saved your life!! 😱😱😱
0:10 [asmr] wario texting while driving and drives off a cliff
It's always a good day when Shortcat uploads!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
real
NPC
@@LavaCreeperPeoplewho taught you that insult? You didn’t come up with it yourself, did you? …there’s a word for that…
Its also a good day when this overused sentence isn't used
shortcat videos are absolute bangers
This made me realize how important drifting is. Great job shortcat
If you can’t drift, smart steering seems objectively better than having it off because the main downside of smart steering is losing out on ultra mini turbos
not being able to take shortcuts its a downside if you're bagging
In this challenge, smart steering is almost always good. It's bad sometimes as I showed. I was going to ban smart steering if I won with it quickly, to up the challenge more.
You know it's a good video when the muscle memory kicks in not even 10 seconds in.
“I didn’t get mushrooms in so long that my dopamine just crashed” -shortcat
Ok shortcat I mean like the shorts made me cry tears of joy a little but I got so happy from this long video that now my whole house is filled up with my tears. I guess thank you for making me happy.
I'm crying for how happy you must be
@@Shortcat321Thank you, it means a lot.
This challenge is crazy!!! I can’t believe you won (even with hop haha)! Great video as always Shortcat
When I saw ‘NO DRIFTING’, I thought of just steering, like driving normally. When I saw you hopping to make the turns easier, I felt that you weren’t doing this challenge at 100%. I’m glad you changed that almost halfway through the video!
(I don’t drift in races when I play Mario Kart with beginners 😆)
This video hurts to watch
0:41
Wario: *doesn’t drift so he doesn’t ruin his brand new car*
Also Wario: *drives underwater*
Everybody knows that just cleans the engine
this is how my mum plays because it’s too hard for her to remember to drift
i remember when I didn’t really watch mario kart youtubers and actually just didn’t know drifting existed. me and my friends just turned and flew of the track every 5 seconds. nostalgia
Hello Shortcat, it's been 2 months, I started watching you when you had 1k subs. And now you have 113k subs. You have gained alot of subscribes within the 2 months
This is one of the "challenges" i ipose on myself when I play with the family.
They get a choice of 3
No Items
No Drifting (which includes no hopping)
1 Lap head start
No items is the easiest to deal with, 1 lap head start just means I get a bullet and instantly catch up, no drifting is 100% the hardest thing, I go from easily winning to sometimes coming 5th
Yeah I did No Drifting with my friends and still Won. I intentionally slowed down as well and trust me, I'm not even that great at MK8D.
I'm not trying to put down my Friends, but just felt like sharing that.
I didn’t realise I did this challenge the whole time without knowing when I first played :D
I only started to drift when I watched you
10:58 That shell dodge was within about 2 frames or so between stars. That's impressive, and we should be talking about that more.
It’s so weird seeing yourself in a Shortcat video. I can remember the Waluigi driving weird. Can’t believe I lost though…
This reminds me of playing Mario Kart DS with my DS’s broken L/R buttons! Despite that, I defeated my friends so consistently they started copying my driftless turns :3
Yo what hahahahah
love how you always try and do different and unique combos, even on top of ridiculous challenges like this, lol. keeps the content fresh : ) good work short hop
Awesome video as always + new video idea: playing with the smallest combo in the game! (When’s the next loung video coming out…it was so entertaining…SUNSHINE AIRPORT!)
Thanks for the idea! Next lounge video is soon!
☀️ ✈️
Shortcat using my baby sister's meta build of smart steering + no drift. You just need to also do auto-accelerate now.
I love how you do this to challenge yourself meanwhile there are so many casual players just Living Like This
Love the videos! You should make a video where you only use smart steering as it's a really funny mechanic
Wondering if being able to get a mini turbo by steering normally for a long time is neat or just useless. Maybe both.
Also the smart steering save at 9:18 was sick!
Unfortunately it's pretty useless, even in this challenge 😂
Bro hit the gear shift
It's useless but very satisfying especially when using Motion Controls. Maybe Nintendo will give it a more competitive edge in the next installment because quite frankly it reminds me of MKDD where you go straight into a drift instead of hopping.
"drifting is the most important mechanic in the game"
Accelerating: am I a joke to you?
That shock at the end was Devastating to watch, nice video!
Shortcat: *does a challenge video*
Also Shortcat: *Beats the challenge in under 3 tries*
“He doesn’t want to get his tires dirty”
Proceeds to go off road
The duality of Shortcat videos, a cool fun challenge he’ll enjoy or something beyond dreadful
i just started school and now all of your uploads time perfectly with my lunch period so im not bored while i eat
Me; a Mario Kart noob who somehow went 10 years of playing Mario Kart without ever gaining the capability to properly drift:
The return of the King lets go ! 😄
No drifting? You’re a mad man Shortcat.😂 next try it with no tricking!
9 year old me playing SMK Wii:
That ending made me laugh so hard! 🤣
@Shortcat - Got a cart for you (or anyone interested really) to try if you've never:
- kart version: Dry Bowser w/ Tanooki Kart, GLA Tires, and Paper Glider
- bike version: Dry Bowser w/ Master Cycle Zero, GLA Tires, and Paper Glider
It's a faster vehicle with still-high acceleration and mini-turbo, plus amazing traction.
Also have this one if you've never tried it either. Similar idea; fast but without stat weaknesses:
- also this one: Dry Bowser w/ Sports Coupe, GLA Tires, and Paper Glider
This one is to dominate on anti-gravity tracks, as opposed to tracks with off-road/icy bits.
when i got mario kart 7, i didnt know anything about the game and i straight up did not know about drifting until i got mk8, and i somehow got all the 100cc cups with 3 stars
"The grip run is better than the drift run" - Nakazato
I kid you not, back when i was new to Mario Kart, i didn't knew you could drift. So literally every single one of my races was like this. I still managed to win a lot, though.
that second race was absolute chaos
12:06 bro did a front flip 😂👍🏻
Technically if you turn your vehicle with the right amount of speed, acceleration and force and how tightly you turn you can get a mini turbo boost like when you go to drift
Shorcut has so much confidence beating bots and acting like he didnt actually finish last place. Its just what Nintendo's skilled developers intnended. It fools kids and small minded youtubers everytime and keeps them playing
This feels like an extremely obvious rage bait comment
Or maybe it's extremely ironic
the absolute roller coaster of emotions during ribbon road!!!
Shortcat being so good he had to make the challenge harder
I imagined it would be done by racing 200cc + braking + turning, but then again you'd lose lots of speed that way huh. You'd complete this challenge some day 😌
Shortcat's rages are really cute :3
Smart steering mushrooms is like when that Nascar driver used the wall to speed up as much as possible without losing speed on the turn
"Hmm, I don't want to ruin my new car and tires so I think I will not drift. But driving in the water is okay" Wario 2023
people who know you can get a mini turbo without drifting here
? How???
the lore for these challenges are so funny🤣
Just watching shortcat’s amazing skill inspires me to one day be a pro at Mariokart
Bro it is just like me when i play this game… I suck so much at it I don’t know how to use drifts and mini-turbos. I go in the walls so much. The difference is you really know the game, at a point when you can make comebacks almost everytime. I would love play like you this game
I was doing that exact same challenge, 200cc and no drift is insane XD
The fact that you thought hopping made that easy is crazy lmao bro I can’t even race with drifting letting alone if I tried to hop through the track
When I was a kid, I had an old DS lite that used to belong to my older brother. It was kinda banged up and the L and R buttons did not work. I learned to play without drifting at all, and I still use X to use items to this day. But yeah, when I was doing 150cc and mirror mode, it was a real struggle without drifting.
No drift? Takes me back In Super Circuit, when I had no Idea drift was a thing, and mysteriously, hopping would reposition my turning straight xD
This is how I used to play the wii game back when I knew nothing
When I first played mario kart, I didn't know about drifting, so it looks a lot like what you did.
Dude you crushed MY dreams with that ending and I don't even go here 😭
Shortcat's channel is growing faster than a bullet bill
I feel like any challenge is possible with bagging, the real challenge is winning without bagging!
When I was young on the original Mario kart 8 this is how I played
Try and win a game while only looking at the mini map.
sick idea, although idk how that would work lol
@@StalinkTz exactly, that's why it would be a hard, worthy challenge.
I feel like the only game where this would be relatively easy would be MKDS lmao
@@djroscurro9859and 7
And super Mario kart
next video:
"no drifting, waiting 2 minutes, playing on a 144p screen, no controller just telling a 3 year old what to do instead of driving myself against competitive players on 200ms ping"
We had a group in the 3DS & Wii U age called Formula Karting, which was basically just this! It was a whole different meta.
sounds fun, was it mainly sacrificing all mini turbo for speed and low weight?
@@elliot.1 kinda, and also keeping the handling high.
mini turbo is useful tho, because you can still generate them with enough turning and the correct lines, so you can incorporate that into the build.
@@elliot.1I personally liked driving with high acceleration and speed, to actually drive it like a formula car
so many of these challenges seem to be "how good is bagging" xD
Shortcat Back At Again With Another Mario Kart Video!😎😎😎
I used to do this when I was really little and I didn’t know drifting or hopping or tricking was a thing
Challenge for you shortcat: Beat as many dlc track nintendo ghosts as you can, Shroomless :)
The ending got me lol
Alternate title: Playing Mario Kart like my dad.
Next up: No Drift, No Hop, No Smart Steering, No Handling
fun fact actually when this game came out 10 years ago, I was 8 years old and couldn't figure out how to drift, so this is just how I played all the time
Yo I don’t even have a switch or play mario kart, but these vids are so enjoyable for some reason. Thanks, Shortcat.
That's what everyone I play locally with asks themselves
I discovered that chanel not so long ago, and I already almost watched everything
I hope you’ll get the fame you deserve
I remember how I used to play MKDS without drifting cause the DSi had the worst trigger buttons. It surprisingly worked out pretty well. 4:05 oh my god that's such a luck streak haha!
I find it very interesting that there isn’t a manual and automatic mode in this game. I guess the reason is probably that smart steering exists
"my dopamine just crashed OH" -shortcat 2023
People trying to win normally
Shortcat:
Best intro ive ever seen
This must have been the hardest challenge you have done.
It went from easiest to hardest
GCN Dino Dino Jungle was playing with Funky Kong and Honey Queen on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, it going to released in 2024 next year.
As a former smart steering user, you need to enter shortcuts at the right spot
When you said "I need a bullet" you made me remember of the "I need more boolet" guy 😭
He had the mad hops
