Getting a piranha pot in the first item box of the race should be illegal.

Or a Boomerang.

Or Triple Red Shells

Piranha Pot can't really defend your back, and can't be aimed. It just says that nobody can go past you for ten seconds.

Still a hilariously broken item. Like everything else in this series lol.

Mostly just in that it gives anyone behind you the Gandalf

Because bro

You shall not pass

Like I said though, it's this series. I love it, I hate it, it's Mario Kart. Being a pessimistic person, I just tend to end up looking at the negative side of things more, which is why it may seem I'm always complaining. :L

Such bullshit on Shy Guy Falls. We lapped some poor fellow (a friend of someone?) and at the very end he was mashing around, obstructing my path while eventually someone took the shroomspot and won. Earlier he dropped down out of nowhere like fucking Batman on Rainbow Road when I was pretty much alone in the lead and scared the hell out of me.

Filing a protest. Hopefully he'll be fined accordingly.

Oh, don't worry. It was a genuine question.
I never felt it was broken in any way. It's like comparing it with triple red shells. You can pass a person with those items under your own risk. It may sound OP because it gives you small boosts while attacking other racers but the damage is so minimal I really never paid attention lol.

Are games hosted P2P? Was dominating a lobby on the final lap when I got an ingame communication error. Thought the host might have ragequit.


Went from 1300VR to like 1700 in one sitting. Pub matches are easy as fuck.
