The Wario Bike is the default bike on the third row, and that makes it an acceleration and handling vehicle (with each stat being 50/80 or higher), with its kart counterpart being the Offroader (which should have kept its Japanese name Survival Buggy but that's another rant) and its medium and lightweight counterparts being the Sugarscoot and Bit Bike respectively. Unusually for such a vehicle, it actually has the highest weight of all bikes in the game. Its weight also lends it an average speed stat (an average stat being 35/80 or higher, but lower than 50/80), rather than a poor one such as the Bit Bike, Sugarscoot, and their kart counterparts. That being said, the Wario Bike still has the lowest base top speed (that is, top speed without a wheelie) out of all large vehicles in the game, and it's actually lower than the Magikruiser's, which could spell trouble. Instead, the Wario Bike's only weak stat (that is, 34/80 and under) is drift. As far as palette swaps go, Bowser and Dry Bowser have their handlebars positioned lower, and Rosalina's has shorter exhaust pipes. The Magikruiser boasts the best offroad stat in the game (67/80), which anyone who regularly watches MKW channels should already know by now. But offroad is its only stat above 49 (actually above 48 as no vehicles have any stat of exactly 49 oddly enough). Its poorest stats are weight (being a small vehicle) and drift (which regular viewers should also already know). All its other stats fall in that 35-48 range. The Magikruiser is the only vehicle in the game where Toad gets to have a palette swap with red as the main color, as Baby Mario usually has the color reserved for him but this time has the classic Kamek blue.
@@Sean-qg3gg there are a couple people who always trash me in the comment section (one I always end up replying to because he makes me laug) but seeing a message of someone wanting me in these is heartwarming so I thank you for the kind words.
14:24 the nostalgia, anyone else miss the good old days with shortcut challenges with Connor, Colton, and Justin? Makes me kind of sad thinking that was over 10 years ago, I hope one day they come on the channel again, even if they are all moved on with their lives
Same, I've been rewatching some of them, like the gameshow challenges, the 4 player challenge between Troy, Justin, Colton and Connor, and many others he did 10 years ago. Some of them are unlisted now, but I still watch them since they're not that hard to find.
@@lemonkey-gd Justin Gameshow shortcut #3 and Alina vs Gameshow are the only ones I think, but he also unlisted his old custom track streams from 2012 and 2013, I made a playlist to preserve them for those who wanna see the old days again.
@@ElementalDomino2007 They still aren't good. Troy should help him out with the vehicle draft with recommendations at this point because having Troy win by so much every time is not the best content.
It's so messed up that Wario Bike is an F Tier vehicle in every aspect except at the theoretical top level of play in which case it's literally the best vehicle in the game. ;-;
P.S. Can someone explain to me why episode one is not being counted by Troy. I am sure Nick would appreciate not counting that first episode, but I am still counting it.
Eventhough I feel bad for Nick I really enjoy how investigative you guys are with the game. Everyone here knows that you both are great at the game and no matter what combo or placing you can always give it your all and play cracked. Learning new stuff about the vehicles and seeing great gameplay is what I am here for and you never fail to deliver on those fronts!
My recommendation is that the team that loses the first cup gets to pick the next four races, then the other team gets to pick the last four. This removes some of the randomness from track selection and also should make the matches closer and more entertaining to watch.
It would definitely be interesting to see what Wario Bike Supersliding would be like on an inside drifting Wario Bike. Unfortunately, the fact that it's inside drift also means it can't superhop which is like the bread and butter of ODBs at TAS levels of execution :(
@@mkwpatsfan Installing Homebrew on an Unmodded Wii isn't really a complicated process, and once you have that, it's straightforward enough to rip your game's ISO from your disc. Once you have that, you can TAS the game all you want through Dolphin Emulator.
The end result of this war was Magikruiser 506 - 367 Wario Bike. OUCH But what's really interesting, is that this proved the importance of the stats Troy and Nick commented on. Races really are made and broken by top speed, drift, and miniturbo (in that order).
This video is so funny because before i played online i used to main the Wario Bike. Then i switched to the Twinkle star and now obviously i main the Bowser Bike. But like, this video was fun.
i was bored so i decided to predict the next vehicles of flounderfest. i wonder how many of these i'll get right lol (skipped to 11 because the first 10 vehicles have already been picked) 11. TWD selects Wild Wing 12. NME selects Mini Beast 13. TWD selects Jet Bubble 14. NME selects Flame Flyer 15. TWD selects Piranha Prowler 16. NME selects Honey Coupe 17. TWD selects Sprinter 18.

TWD selects Daytripper 32. NME selects Sugarscoot 33. TWD selects Quacker 34. NME selects Cheep Charger 35. TWD selects Bit Bike 36. NME selects Booster Seat
Magikruiser supremacy is real. Of all the bikes that I see magikruiser is my favorite during the gps because it is always so hype between shock dodges and fun shortcuts
Isn’t the Wario Bike the one that can clip into the ground in TAS? Obviously this isn’t TAS but maybe the Wario Bike’s properties have it interact weirdly with certain parts of the track, like maybe with DS Bowser’s Castle it had something to do with the corner Nick took? This is just a guess, I’m mainly an 8DX player and have no clue how Wii works half the time
Lucky for you, I have the insider knowledge >:D The wall that Nick hit in that clip is an extension of the wall lining the perimeter of the track which doesn't end at the points where the road passes over it. This means that the wall on the side of the track also connects to the bottom of the entire slope change. The implication of this is that vehicles have a chance of crashing into this wall while driving along the track normally provided that the vehicle's hitboxes are large enough and low enough to collide with it. In this case, Nick was using the Wario Bike which has considerably large hitboxes and was drifting far to the right, resulting in the vehicle's body hitboxes dipping even lower due to the vehicle's roll. This along with some quantized movement shenanigans (which Nick had no real control over) was enough for the bike to barely collide with the wall. Really just a perfect storm of unfortunate coincidences combined with a track detail which really shouldn't be present in the first place.
@@Lanval_de_Lai The existence of Wario Bike Supersliding is definitely Nintendo's fault, yeah, but the wall collision Nick had at the end of DS Bowser Castle wouldn't have happened if the CT were built just slightly better.

Nick really decided to carry forward TKMemer's legacy on the maple treeway race
And I welcome him into the lag club with open arms
Wow, that MT race referenced two 2011 videos at once. Great stuff.

It's so messed up that Wario Bike is an F Tier vehicle in every aspect except at the theoretical top level of play in which case it's literally the best vehicle in the game. ;-;
This really wasn't a terrible pick. I dunno how he overlooked jet bubble though.
"The goal is to stop the top 6" that should say enough about how bad the Wario Bike is 😹
14:25 - No words, other than *nice*
I genuinely never realized how bad the wario bike was until we did that bonus gp😭. Ggs tho still a fun war👍
Standard bikes seem slept on, but with the 6 vehicle episode coming up, my guess is we see those all then!
its 4am for me am i cooked troy
bro is cooked
You are 100% cooked, 1000% cooked, you're overcooked😭
Troy ain’t gonna reply 😭
2am for me haha. hi from Australia
Go to sleep
Nick out here drafting a punter in the second round lol. Still fun to see, but yeah I would have loved to see Magi vs Jet Bubble instead.
Nick is the Atlanta Falcons of drafting.
Falcons stray on a TWD vid is crazy, leave us alone 💔
51:25 Funky Kong Dancing at its finest! LET’S GO!!!!
sooo true
Troy leads 4/7 - 1/7 in five episodes. Will Nick's comeback start in episode 6 of FlounderFes7!? Find out now. At least Nick will not be clean swept.
P.S. Can someone explain to me why episode one is not being counted by Troy. I am sure Nick would appreciate not counting that first episode, but I am still counting it.
@@elikramer9234I think it doesn’t count because it was an exhibition episode. They were just playing for fun and not actually competing. :)
@@elikramer9234 It was a for fun match
14:24 so satisfying
20:21 I love how your speaking lines up with the track
You thought the Maple Treeway race would be a "bam shock dodge" repeat but it actually was a LagMaster Troy Repeat
I like that the teams are more balanced! Troy’s team always had more competitive players. What is with people disconnecting on Nick’s team though lol
The TKS conspiracy curse lore continues on, lol
Of course the first track of the experiment GP was lakeside park lmao.
nick was the main man for red team :nick on sherbet USE THE SHOCK HELP A BROTHER OUT meanwhile troy: were just chillin in top 2 😎 lol
I usually root for Nick's team in these videos but today Troy is on my favorite vehicle, I'll be happy with either result I guess!
Treeway really came with the LagMaster Troy callback
14:26 🔥🔥🔥
This is just like F1, it does not matter if you are a better driver than your rivals, if you vehicle is not good, there is no way you are winning
I am honestly so glad u are blue team. Every time u show a clip of nick, I think "why is he in risk of getting eliminated ?" xD
big fan of the switch yall did for the end. consider that science segment for future episodes!
also +1 for another week of funky Kong dancing!

What if you guys started swapping combos for the last 2 GPs? Might keep it a lot more fair and interesting !
Well but than it's a clan war, not a vehicle war.
10:51 Disconnections or not, the Red Team must realize…they are DOOMED!!!!
@20:50 I swear whoever made that N64 rainbow road did it better then Mario Kart 8 deluxe's N64 rainbow road
18:47 we feel your pain nick

Troy is always such a good sport
Magiccrusier was my favorite mario kart wii, felt unstoppable online and against my friends
Bro Troy was lowkey pissed at the whole DS Bowser Castle thing.
8:50 WAS THAT A TEEN BEACH MOVIE REFERENCE (the song Cruisin' for a Bruisin')
This video is so funny because before i played online i used to main the Wario Bike. Then i switched to the Twinkle star and now obviously i main the Bowser Bike. But like, this video was fun.
Cool idea: hide placement counter. Hide map. Knockout tourment with bonusses
Watching Flounderfest instead of studying for my exam tomorrow, hopefully it’s worth it

IT'S MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT FROM TROY! a nearly hour long flounderfest!!
Happy past birthday!
47:37 Troy and Nick wishing each other the best of luck on the final race in the final GP when the Blue Team had already dissected the Red Team…lol!
what's your favorite cart combo? me personally i enjoy the diddy kong on the dolphin dasher.
my favorite kart combo is mario wild wing
I always main waluigi on the wario bike. Even in online.
Not that there aren't better alternatives, but the wario bike is just that cool imo.
I like the GBA battle theme at the beginning.
I wonder if next week is gonna be Standard Kart vs Standard Bike since Troy mentioned "6 vehicles instead of 2".
14:25
Nick with the Bam! Lag Dodge
Ive been repping the Baby Luigi Magikruiser for awhile now.
At least Nick didn't lose nearly as hard as you did!
This is like the Lakers Vs the Nuggets
please someone, help me out, where can i find that fire DK Jungle music. Its way more swingy than the other versions.

Wario Bikers getting SPANKED in this installment.
I'm gonna take a guess the next one will be the three classes combined of both Standard Kart and Standard Bike
THE GHOST OF TKS MEMER IS HAUNTING NICK THIS CLAN WAR.
And now I haunt your comment ooohhhhhhhh
I'd be down for Wario Bike vs Quacker though.
This js actually the 1st time ive ever seen Nick rage its rare
HypSpeedYt accidentially stayed with Magikruiser on the one where you guys swapped vehicles
Love this series!
The Drift of the Magi!
Is the surprise next week that each teammember uses a different standard vehicle (lightweight, medium, heavy; standard kart, standard bike)?
to be fair to nick's team, he was the one who put them on inside drift wario bike in the first place 😭
The best part of Monday is hereeeeee
I did do a tier list of mario kart items, and of course, blooper and coin just had to go in F tier.
Troy, in clan wars there's usually a bagger. Why no baggers in this team VS races?
Good video like always Troy
MK Wii is the Melee of Mario Kart, so unbalanced my god
Thanks for picking bad vehicle to make it an interesting video Troy 👍👍👍😀😀😀
Magikruiser is the GOAT
I miss the face cam
This is a certified Clan War classic!
It was at this moment that Zach knew he f'cked up!!!!!!
Is Nick going to pick piranha prowler next time?
Hi Troy! Hi Nick!
Great encore!
Bad day to be a Wario bike
Nmeade better step up next episode haha.
does anyone know what the best controllers are to use for mario kart wii?, let me know please
wario bike would be better with outside drift tbh
Does anyone know how to fix “could not initialize network”
Is participation in these just from people in your discord server?
Nicks choices are questionable so far lmao I feel like picking a vehicle that is faster than magi would be the obvious choice
MAJIKRUISER MONDAYYYYY
