I actually love these videos. I don’t play mkwii often but I love following the scene off these videos. You have my full attention for 30 minutes every upload.
lets go new frozen content, I love watching you guys play, id love a series where you climb from unranked to GM in mogi while explaining tips on how to get better, that would be hard, if mogi lounge is dead, any other ranked battles would be super fun to watch, congrats on the win guys, yall are goated, loved watching the synergy!
great video, always love seeing games done at a high level. Would love to see either a voiceover breakdown or just hear your comms behind picking strategies
hey frozen your videos are great keep it up. also i would greatly recommend making a video that explains your thought process during races or explained strategies used by your team. i think it would be great for the newer audience you are building. regardless keep up the videos, i'm glad your channel has been doing so well recently, you deserve it.
Can you make a video where you explain how it's works the team race, the way the team is organized and strategy? These videos are really entertaining but sometimes I can't really understand what's happening
Love the video! Just a pep peeve, next time could you not spoil the results for a tournament, I love the suspense of not knowing whether you guys win or not, anyway loved the video and looking forwards to more and congrats!
Considering you started the video by saying you want competetive mario kart wii to hit mainstream, it would be helpful if you would include some info in, say, the description Common questions to answer would probably be for example something like: Why is there 2 people going backwards every race? How does the point distribution work? What are the rules? What is the "Jx. pick" followed by a set of numbers at the start of every race? How does the contest progress / how is the winner ultimately decided?
As a long time Mario Kart Wii fan, I’ll do my best to answer, long but informative (to my best knowledge) 1. Each team has a “bagger” (someone who purposely goes backwards) in an attempt to get the “Lightning” (shock) item. The Lightning is the most powerful item in the game. If your teammates can get “dodge” items (Mega Mushroom, Star, Bullet), then they can dodge this powerful item by not getting small and going slower. In Mario Kart Wii, items have limits. There can only be 1 person holding a Shock at a time, 1 person holding a Bullet at a time, 2 people holding a Mega at a time, 3 people holding a Star at a time, etc etc. This means, the bagger holding the shock can dictate the race, and allows the teammates to be at ease that they don’t get shocked at a bad time. You can only get certain items in certain positions. In 10 player rooms, you can only get the Lightning in 9th or 10th. In 9th, it’s a 7.5% chance to get, in 10th a 20% chance. That’s why the baggers compete to literally be last. Some items only become obtainable after 30 seconds into the race, and once used cannot be gotten for another 30 seconds. 2. All races give the same amount of points based on position. If you get 1st place, you get 15 points, 2nd 12, 3rd 10, 4th 8, 5th 6, 6th 4, 7th 3, 8th 2, 9th 1, 10th 0. At the end of each race, the points are added amongst teammates. After the first race of this vid, adding the points, Xi had 15+12+10+3+1=41 points. Jx had 8+6+4+2+0=20 points. So the -21 shown on screen means Jx is down 21 points. Those points carry over into the next race on and on until the end. Whoever team has more total points wins 3. Honestly, there’s prob some crazy obscure rules out there I don’t know. I believe the “bagger” of a team is not allowed to negatively impact the main racers of the other team (by bumping into them or stealing a box, I’m not too sure). The penalty is minus some points 4. “Jx Pick” means the team Jx picked the current track being played. The numbers below are the positions Jx members are starting the race in 5. In this vid, a “match” seems to be 12 total races. Whichever team has more cumulative points after all 12 races wins the “match”. Best of 5 (first to win 3 “matches”) wins the tournament.
hey i keep coming back to this video cause there's so much to unpack, but I have a quetsion, at 25:35, the bagger on XI bumped into you which killed your momentum and cause you to get mario karted a little bit, what is the protocol in that scenario? Does the other team lose points? Did you opt to not do anything about it since you guys were already up? I'd love to hear your thoughts, or if anyone else has insight regarding this, thanks!
shock can only be pulled in bottom two spots (much more likely in last) and its such a game changing item that its worth sacrificing one racer to try to get it
notice how they say activate shock or keep it shockless almost every lap 3. whether u and ur team dodge the shock can be the difference between top 4 and bottom 4
I don't really understand it either but earlier in the race someone said "i greened them" like 3 times in a row. Probably greened 3 people and secured top positions. Just a guess but thats what makes sense to me. (i was hella confused half this video so don't take my word)
Yeah, I think Bo's right! Look at Daisy in the minimap from 15:55. You'll see three funky kongs getting hit while Mura takes first. Would've taken out Frozen out of the mud shortcut too if he had wanted xD
there is on dolphin emulator, but im pretty sure you still need a wii beforehand to play online if youre on pc. you can still play on dolphin without a wii, but you just wont be able to play online
@@FluxRevived ah i see, didnt know you meant ctgp in specific. though, unless youre also looking to play cts, you can still play with people on ctgp while youre on dolphin, since its all on the same servers (wiimmfi). you just wont be able to play on ctgp itself. (dont know if you already know that though)
If I wanted to do competitive mkw do I need a wii or can I use dolphin emulator? Also, are you able to hook a wii up to a gaming monitor or is a CRT necessary?
it was to prevent XI lower spots from chaining lower spot boxes (i.e. Quinn chained 4th place box instead of 6th place box). This means that mura and jeff could hold their top 2 better since XI couldn't get good enough items to break into top 2
yeah, I think they were particularly afraid of letting XI pull the blue shell because Jx had top 2, and holding even one of the top 2 positions would be enough for a win on the entire event.
i wish this video was more accessible for people that doesn't play mario kart wii. i've no clue what the points mean and why u are using that strats what you do.
Well the points atleast as far as I’m aware comes from the game giving each racer points for specific placements. So 1st place gets 15 points 2nd gets like 12 etc. So the higher placings each team has together = more points. So after the first race they were down 21 points cuz the other team placed better. And as far as the strays used, most of it revolves around what items you get in the mystery boxes. The boxes give you a random item out of an assorted pool of items based on your placings so really good items such as the star, bullet, shock etc. Will only appear in the bottom few placings and the top placings will only really see bananas, shells, and occasionally mushrooms. If you’ve never played Mario kart it’s definitely not the most intuitive game to understand what’s going on but basically every time they slow down when they’re ahead or make a odd looking maneuver is essentially to play around what items they know the enemy team has.
LMAOOO the absolute defeat in his voice when he said "I got chomped" 💀
before anyone asks, it’s at 28:32
fr i was about to comment that he was literally like "bro how the hell did that just happen"
Can I just say, it’s so fucking amazing your team only dropped ONE series the WHOLE TOURNAMENT. Gg!
9:45 that red block for your buddy was nice!
25:22 THAT WAS DISGUSTING, WELL PLAYED
I had no idea you could do that
The cannon dodge in DK parkway was the stuff of legends

The realignment to do cut on lap 3 first race DK Mountain is what puts some players in a level above all. I’m nowhere near that lmao
Just discovered this channel, love it
great video, always love seeing games done at a high level. Would love to see either a voiceover breakdown or just hear your comms behind picking strategies
Its cool to see this video is out right now but the the final stream of this tournament was like 1 month ago. Pretty funny ❤
Really glad that your channel is growing. The content is great!
This is prime MKW content🔥🔥
Watching competitive mkw never gets old
7:55 dodge is crazy

I LOVE YOU FROZEN
11:25 how did that happen to the thomp? Is that a glitch or intended?
1:40 where did this air come from lol
can you make a video explaining the concepts and strats? I know all the items, but why do two people go backward at the start of the race
shock can only be pulled in bottom two spots (much more likely in last) and its such a game changing item that its worth sacrificing one racer to try to get it
notice how they say activate shock or keep it shockless almost every lap 3. whether u and ur team dodge the shock can be the difference between top 4 and bottom 4
Ahhh the title gave it away lol I wanted to see what happened at the end
Do any of yall understand why some of the players the first round went backwards and then sat in the same spot for the rest of the game?
What happened at 23:24? Did they lose 5 points for something?
At 11:05, how come two racers drive backwards?
What did Mura do at 16:30 that was the best
I don't really understand it either but earlier in the race someone said "i greened them" like 3 times in a row. Probably greened 3 people and secured top positions. Just a guess but thats what makes sense to me. (i was hella confused half this video so don't take my word)
