    I like your idea for the thundercloud but I like the way the shock is now but that isn’t what I want to comment on. I think that the super leaf and the piranha plant, aside from the tc, are the worst items and it mainly boils down to how the super leaf always lasts just barely too long to chain it and the piranha plant for similar reasons as well as how it does not allow you to use your other item. I can’t count the number of times I have been screwed over by the piranha plant because of it being ahead of a star leading to me getting shocked or being ahead of a mushroom not allowing to take a shortcut at the end. And I also feel it has the same issues being not easy to chain it

  • @halt1931
    @halt1931 Год назад

    for fake item boxes, I think people overlook the fact that the hitbox is bigger than a banana's is, and it does a lot more damage than the banana too (it doesn't just make you spin out). if you're trying to make it rely on people seeing it as a real item box, then it isn't great, but if you use it to block off part of the track, its actually better than the banana - especially because it not colliding with things like shells is a downside defensively, but it also means that if someone's about to run into it, they can't throw a shell forward to break it and save themselves

    I'll be honest. I have a few gripes with this. Mostly that you think that an item that only screws over one guy in first place, only really benefiting the person in second place when it typically appears in the middle and last places is fine because "life no fair", while an item that screws over everyone and is only for people who are near or at dead last so they can catch up plenty, especially since the effect lasts longer for people closer to first place, is the worst. Also I've hopped at the right time with the POW block and I swear to god that there's no way to avoid it.

    • @hankyhall

    Blue shell, lightning, (and the blooper to an extent) are necessary evils.

      I think that having a mega mushroom after getting hit by the lighting of the thunder cloud is too op. Especially in tracks with a lot of off road because the racer with the thunder cloud can just stay in the off road for at least 30 seconds and without anyone being able to hit that racer.

Your proposals on fixing it are very interesting and creative, but personally I think they should leave it just the way it is if they bring it back. Maybe be more careful about its distribution, like only show up in the middle of the pack where racers are more likely clustered together.

    The blooper ice physics is actually a real thing that was created in ctpg-7 which is a mod for mario kart 7. It even works online and it’s a huge improvement for the blooper item that actually can screw over players more effectively.
    Another idea for the TC could be that it sometimes shrinks the player and other times it won’t. Sometimes once it runs out the cloud just disappears without shocking the player. It would be a random chance. So it makes the item an even more suspenseful game of hot potato and a gamble. It’s a simple fix that would make it more interesting.
