Shortcat I have a lot to thank you for! Because of your content I got into Mk8d at my university gaming center and proceeded to win a SWITCH for myself from a mk8 tournament! Thank you for teaching me and thousands of other people the game 😊
When shortcat burned out at the start of Rainbow Road, I immediately got the most hilarious cut to a commercial timing EVER. Best part? IT WAS A RACING COMMERCIAL ABOUT NOT GIVING UP ON YOUR DREAMS.
Meanwhile I got a Ritz cracker ad in the same spot. Apparently TH-cam doesn’t have much confidence in my ability to achieve my dreams and thinks I should stick to snacking
i felt like i was completely done with mario kart until i found your channel and i grew a developed interest in mario kart 8 again. ultimately i returned deeper to my roots to mario kart wii, but i definitely respect mario kart 8 as a game thanks to you, and i don’t think i would have inevitably rediscovered my mario kart wii passion if it wasn’t for your content
It’s so cool how fully fleshed out and technical every Mario kart game is that each one still has its following years after it came out. I guess that’s just a testament to how great each one is. Does that mean I’ll be playing on homebrewed Mario kart 8 deluxe servers in the year 2040?
@@burrito_slayer4516 Oh 100% he was targeting Shortcat. The amount of times he trailed him or popped a star when it didn't make sense and ended up hitting him was too often to be accidental.
The peachette who unnecessarily redded you immediately on Rosalina’s ice world got 9th. Knowing 3k mmr players though they will never learn from their mistakes
I can't believe this fraud of a Mario Kart youtuber didn't get 1st on Hyrule Circuit, his best track. I think we should all collectively unsubscribe from Shortcat in protest of this horrific performance. Who's with me?
Hey Shortcat, you probably won’t see this but your videos have genuinely brought a smile to my face. I don’t know how you do it but you gave me genuine joy and I thank you for it.
@@ARCADE_PROTOTYPEeh it’s alright, I see this more as a reminder of how I felt, so when I randomly come back to this video in 3-5 years, I’ll remember myself then
Compared to your videos like a year ago you can really see how much better you have become at this game. Even though that is the case, your old videos are still as good as the new ones 🔥
13:39, 13:47, 13:53 That Birdo, Platinum, was lagging out HARD. Popped in and out of existence like they were testing Shortcat's object permanence. Edit: I forgot Platinum was Shortercat! Yeah, totally just fiddlin' with their internet connection to test your lag reaction hahaha
That 3DS Rainbow Road sell was a Greek tragedy, seeing you keep trying and trying to come back only for the same Magikoopa to keep hitting you with shells was devastating
i used to play competitive a lot a few years ago but dropped the game because i got busy. thanks to you, im getting back into the grind and working my way back up to my previous glory (at the expense of my senior year thesis!!!)
I played Mario kart at a friends house once and lost but it got me into your videos and going back and playing a few weeks later I won almost every time and your videos are also amazing
15:19 I relate to this so much! It’s where I’ve been at with solving Rubik’s cubes for a long time. I’m really knowledgeable because I’ve always had an interested in learning techniques etc., but in actual solves I just hesitate or make silly mistakes because I haven’t put in enough hours actually solving (which is crazy to say considering how many hours I HAVE put in). I can still pretty consistently average 17-18s but I know I can do better if I eliminate silly mistakes like turning back and forth etc. Just seems relevant to what you’re talking about in terms of skill here :)
Okay, so I'm going to say my peace here and never make any comments like that again cuz i hate when i got misunderstood by people. We all love the content that ShortCat brings in his videos, very fun and well edited, that's a fact. The coolest thing about ShortCat is that he seems to have the most fun playing, at least out of all the MK8 content creators I watch. Even though he tries to play well and improve (being try hard sometimes), he laughs a lot and comments on all the things that are happening. You just love to see it. Here's what i think... I've been following your content for a while and I feel you're insecure about competitive events, perhaps for fear of being judged by performance and etc... I speak only for myself when i say this but you just having fun while playing Mario Kart is what makes it so good and unpredictable. Plays that happen in your series for 30k VR can easily happen in lounge events with the current MMR you have. I wish you all the best and especially that you let go of this weight that seems to make you do all thoses mistakes you pointed out. Every competitive event must be played to win, obviously. But what's the point if you don't have fun or bring fun to your audience? As a PLAYER, i get it, you wanna win, of course. Not saying that you could play poorly and thats ok. What im saying is that i feel you nervous and messing up things that you dont normaly do in VR ROOMs, and i think it is because you care to much and keeps thinks that SO MUCH DIFFERENT, but is not... Try to see those lounge events more as a simple 25k Worldwide room.. Im just saying all of these cuz i know you like to win, and i think in order to win you have to play more loose Anyway, love you
Hey Shortcat! I finally got around to playing Mario kart because of you and I’m currently grinding out all the triple stars in every cup before I move on to doing some online stuff. Thanks for making you great content and I’ve been having a blast :3
yay new shortcat upload! also thank you for the motivation, me and my friends decided to go for top 10 on yoshi circuit and currently have been at it for a month and our fastest time is 1 46.067
the vicious circle: →gets a mid to front spot →gets trailed a lot at the beginning of the next race and got a back spot →gets a better spot next race →repeats for the rest of the video
My dad is getting into mk8dx online and he watches your shorts to help him :) he is actually getting pretty good. oh yeah, he also laughs when you say "thanks nintendo"
Hi ShortCat ! Love ur videos ! My favourite ones are the 1v1 and in general the videos with a lot of jokes like on the short animal chain or so. Continue on this way ur the best !
Shortcat you're the best :3 My fav commentary and gameplay on yt fr, tysm for posting stuff!!

firefox + ublock origin. thank me later
I got an ad about driving cars for the first time xd
How ironic
That green shell snipe at the end of the 1st race was clean
fr thats what im saying
They call him snipecat the short sniper

I wasn’t even playing and that Kamek was driving me nuts 😂
I feel like he was targeting shortcat tbh
@@burrito_slayer4516 Oh 100% he was targeting Shortcat. The amount of times he trailed him or popped a star when it didn't make sense and ended up hitting him was too often to be accidental.
I had that with Lakitu online. Like I was doing really good and was like winning 4 races in a row, but then this Lakitu was like nah Ima target him.
7:17 rare footage of shortcat hitting the cloud
I was on cloud 9
He finally learned how to play Mario Kart 8.
They grow up so fast 🥲
So so fast
17:27 “Hanks Nintendo” 😂😂😂
Heavily underrated joke fr

Well the ones who learn won't be 3k anymore!

nah sometimes it's just bad luck. Like getting hit by everything in a race 3 laps straight.

Gotta spread the hate! /jk
WHO THE HELL ASKED YOU?
This is what happens when you play off meta
They teamed up against me
Shortcat: Hey I'm back let's have some fun!
Kamek: 🙂↔️
Hey Shortcat, you probably won’t see this but your videos have genuinely brought a smile to my face. I don’t know how you do it but you gave me genuine joy and I thank you for it.

Hope he sees this!
Let’s give the guy some likes so short at can see him 😊

BRO THE SNIPE AT 2:16 ❤
WASTED
The achievement icon on yoshis island made me realize they should add achievements to unlock things in this game 👍
They sorta kinda do with the gold set, but yeah I wouldn't mind more unlockables.
Shortcat your positive attitude is truly impressive. The main reason I watch your channel is to try to learn to be as chill as you.
13:39, 13:47, 13:53 That Birdo, Platinum, was lagging out HARD. Popped in and out of existence like they were testing Shortcat's object permanence.
Edit: I forgot Platinum was Shortercat! Yeah, totally just fiddlin' with their internet connection to test your lag reaction hahaha
7:40 i got flashbacks to when you said "rosalina has a huge hole"
What? When I need to hear that with my own ears
I can't unhear it and I'm bot hearing anything
@@die_buzzies It was a YT short
“hanks got last place let’s go” is so real
That green shell snipe at the first race was a mario kart CPU level snipe, poor guy, was gonna get 2nd and got clipped 😭
The drop to 6th physically hurt me
that snipe at 2:16 was insane
The amount of bumps in warios gold mine is wild. Guessing this room was pretty evenly matched because the pack was always thick
5:01 Shortcat loses on Hyrule 4K UHD, colorized
22:22 Bro almost let the demons out 💀 thanks nintendo
Most Candian way of crashing out
There's no way that Kamek wasn't doing all that fuckery with Shortcat on purpose just because it saw it was him. Hate that people man
This truly is a competitive Mario kart 8 deluxe 9 moment
Hanks (the Kamek) was out for BLOOD, wowzers.
Shortcut when you’re done with your epic competitive streak you should try max water speed!
joined lounge after watching you and ive average 11th place with 50 points...
greatest mario kart experience of my life
Shortcat, you drove strait into that lightning.
you cant spell straight you cannot be talking bro
unless you're not from an english speaking country
I think even that blue shell at the end was Hanks, that Kamek was just destroying you this whole event.
That Kamek player is trying to make a Tanooki skin rug out of you!
That 3DS Rainbow Road sell was a Greek tragedy, seeing you keep trying and trying to come back only for the same Magikoopa to keep hitting you with shells was devastating
I think we need an hour of silent competitive Mario kart, it’ll be perfect
The victory at 24:10 was so satisfying my heart was racing bru
skill issue🔥🔥🔥
7:21 the achivement 😂
I also laughed at that
I like thag shortcat has officially become an internet subculture microcelebrity
i just realized that tanoky mario says YEEHAW! i didnt know he was a cowboy
Thank you for uploading i've ran out of your videos to watch and now i have 1 more to add to the looping playlist
i used to play competitive a lot a few years ago but dropped the game because i got busy. thanks to you, im getting back into the grind and working my way back up to my previous glory (at the expense of my senior year thesis!!!)
11:06 throwing for content??? in this economy???
I miss the cubing stuff.
11:09 got an ad right here. Probably the funniest timed ad I have seen in a while
I played Mario kart at a friends house once and lost but it got me into your videos and going back and playing a few weeks later I won almost every time and your videos are also amazing

Me to my friends: I watched competitive skill issue 8 deluxe.

I love when u try and talk about the cute combos too, it's so funny.

→gets a mid to front spot
→gets trailed a lot at the beginning of the next race and got a back spot
→gets a better spot next race
→repeats for the rest of the video

Can't wait to see Shortcat become a master competitive Mario Kart player. Go Shortcat!!!!!!
Bruh the add at 11:06 is so well timed im dying
This was funny, i love your competitive vids! especially with teammates but none is def good too!! :)
I like how you incorporate the chat messages
Shortcat always gets the most insane moments in Mario Kart!!!
23:16 “If I can get at least triple mushrooms here” (Proceeds to get quadruple mushrooms)
please make so much more of these. They are entertaining
The amount of hit u recieved triggered me so hard even if I’m not playing
