Hey everyone sorry about the microphone this time. I had a recent issue that i fixed, but didnt notice it happening in this video. I will be buying a new microphone! (Probably wouldnt have happened if i chose yoshi)
@Shortcat321 Now that in this video you smuggled a piranha plant to first, have you smuggled every item up into first now? Not sure about the blooper, but maybe?😂
The way you'd have to be so far left, just before a sharp turn is probably what makes it slower. On top of that, boost panels don't save that much time in this game. Plus, the current strategy allows you to face left as you land, which sets up perfectly for the next turn. I think if not for the sharp left turn, the boost panel strategy would have potential!
I love shortcat competitive Mario kart videos. Such an engaging and amicable commentator competing in matches that have more stake to them makes for An amazing product
Man I love this channel because of the optimism. Not blaming devs or the game or being angry at the game. Just playing and moving forward. Bloody love it.
@@worlds_greatest_detective5198Cut it out, you statue-worshipper. God is the Lord. The idols are silver and gold and stone. They have eyes, but do not see; they have ears, but do not hear; they have mouths, yet there is no breath in them, nor can they speak.
I just wanna say this guy is one of the best RUclipsrs I’ve come across. His editing is hilarious, commentary is funny, he’ll put notes of where he could’ve done better, he’s educational… the whole shabang it’s awesome. Keep up the good work Mr. Cat.
I’ve noticed a bit of a pattern in your commentary - when things don’t go your way, you sometimes say stuff like 'I’m not racing well right now.' In sports psychology, this is what they call being a 'form player,' where your confidence depends on recent results instead of your overall ability. Everyone makes mistakes, and bad luck happens to everyone, especially in Mario Kart! The real key is how you bounce back - the best players see mistakes as lessons and bad luck as just part of the game. When you use positive self-talk and remember how much you've grown as a player, you tend to race even better.
You absolutely love to see it, I was rewatching an older competitive lounge video during work today (my boss is chill with it don't worry) and this is a great way to start my Saturday evening
I've been taking a break from MK8DX, but I've been saving every single one of your vids in a special playlist to binge right before I get back into it. Really looking forward to catching up with your journey my dude ❤
Yo shortcat thank you for keeping the community alive & positive ❤ Lounge had a huge boom since you started playing and it’s super fun having everyone in the same place :)
JPERM IS THIS ACTUALLY YOU?? I stopped cubing a while ago but I watched so many of your videos and then seeing one of your videos pop up on my feed I clicked and immediately recognized your voice. This is proof that content creation isn’t only luck but also skill
on behalf of the fellow free thinkers (I play Toad) can we have some more time trial videos? i'm also trying to get better at the game and you're very entertaining to watch ❤
Ending the Video on that sentence, not even saying goodbye, just the Message itself to end the video. What a Move, it felt like I was watching Cinema; Good way to summarise the video: Let's fucking go
Good video man, keep it up! Recently started liking Mario Kart because of you, seen almost all your videos; I cant play 8 deluxe but I like watch you play.
shortcat!!! thank you for the content I recently switched to gc controller because of you! I've been using pro controller for a little over 2 years now but seeing your video on it really convinced me to switch, and now i use motion glider pretty much every race!! (PS, I Don't actually use the one you use :) Was able to buy a PowerA GC Controller from my grocery store for 28 bucks and it works phenomenally😭) anyway big ups to you as you single handedly brought me back into wanting to learn this game again.
6:30 youre so good at that track, i watch youre vods in random order and your older ones you talk about a long winstreak but im failing to see you lose on this track ever :D
16:58 This is the second most infamous Bullet Bill incident I have ever seen. The only one more infamous was at Koopa Cape, with the victim of that Bill having been asking for one from the item boxes. "Oh my goodness, give me a Bullet Bill." **gets hit by Bullet Bill** "GAH! Not like that."
That was a VERY clean Madrid. Especially for not playing it recently. As for Neo Bowser - it's just one of those tracks.. All the curves and thin roads makes it so hard to avoid getting hit or bumped off
I think the worst thing about the yoshipocalypse is that yoshi is one of if my fave mario characters to play, esp in mk, so i've had to move to my second fave, Kamek, even tho he's not the best
love the vids very much too bad it doesnt come out 1 or 2 per day :) much love keep up awsome work love any type of video you make even if its just normal game without an objective like combos and stuff
Probably not because he probably only made it because of his star. He also was on the offroad afterwards and didn't get slowed because he still had part of the star boost left. So for time trails probably not but for comebacks sure

Should’ve picked Bowser smh

@@ColbyBearYTgood idea!
I don't care about the Mic I care about your vids.
@@Shortcat321 I know you’ve smuggled a shock, bill, star, piranha, each kind of shells and mushrooms, so have you smuggled every item into first now?
6:29 it is impossible to claim that the plot armour is not real.
it takes immense skill to have a whole race without a shock/blue :)
@@Shortcat321LUCK STAT ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
shortcats is actully the main character
It's all about managing your distance to last place to make sure the odds of a shock/blue shell are low. It's called reverse banging 😂
@@nikkopaf7406 banging?!
cant believe diddy kong survived that hellhole that is yoshi kart
no diddy
aint no party like a didd-
those lube bottles helped him to slide through the yoshies
Here comes the P Diddy comments. Diddy Kong is truly in a terrible circumstance rn
@@sahaprocks7751p diddy jokes are immature but i can't resist it 😭
17:46 even with the power of positive thinking, the universe still reminds you of your place in Neo Bowser City
And he calls it annoying
8:02 new world record strat
:D
I wonder if that could ever be viable in a real time trial run
@@Wither-xj5cpyoud have to waste a mushroom probably so not viable but still cool
@@endk.3500 maybe a setup could be found to stay on the track but it'd prob be too hard if it even saves time

(is on Diddy Scooty) 😂

Just waiting for the day where the Shortcat Mii makes his competitive mario kart debut
I've been taking a break from MK8DX, but I've been saving every single one of your vids in a special playlist to binge right before I get back into it. Really looking forward to catching up with your journey my dude ❤
I would never have guessed that shortcat of all people would put this as his title 😭😭😭
some clean driving shortcat! especially on madrid drive where you dialed in and managed to stay in front the whole race 💪
Close enough, welcome back jperm
Yo shortcat thank you for keeping the community alive & positive ❤ Lounge had a huge boom since you started playing and it’s super fun having everyone in the same place :)

You dont know that yet!
I have to say I really love how so many interactions are explained with some editing, just taking every chance to help everyone learn
8:02 DONT LET ALBERTO SEE THIS
HAHAHHAHA XD
My favorite thing about your videos is your positive attitude! It’s so refreshing compared to other high-level, competitive gaming content. ❤
Reject Yoshi, return to Monkey
It'd be really cool to see eye tracking on these competitive races. I wanna know where you're looking!
on behalf of the fellow free thinkers (I play Toad) can we have some more time trial videos? i'm also trying to get better at the game and you're very entertaining to watch ❤
Or like a “how to play” guide for individual tracks?
Yeah the tick tock clock vid was great
I was thinking this same thing, I liked that Tick Tock Clock video too
Curious George domination
I really love your videos. I've been going through a very tough time but everytime you upload I find some inner peace for 30 minutes.
No joke. Shortcat videos are so good i save them for later
tbh I didn't even care about Mario Kart that much but watching you play is so much fun and I started to adore this game more than ever before :)
Yes a new Shortcat upload!! Your vids are always the best and they made me start playing online again. Thanks Shortcat
yoooooo shortcat! keep up the good work! you brought me back to playing competitive mario kart!
That burn + editing on Hyrule Circuit just KILLED me 😂😂😂
Yay more Shortcat! I've been so deprived of Mario Kart content that I actually started watching Gyarados & L1am
Ending the Video on that sentence, not even saying goodbye, just the Message itself to end the video. What a Move, it felt like I was watching Cinema; Good way to summarise the video: Let's fucking go
20:03 was hilarious liked and subbed well done
Shortcat out here collecting coins on "his best track" when everyone else is collecting rupees...
I would have totally uninstalled after that neo bowser city. Cheers to your resilience
7:00 Brown character on a brown map no racism here guys 💀
Is that a real thing? Brown character on brown map being a speed boost? I've heard him talk about white character on a snowy map being good too.
@@MotoDash1100no lol
Not being Yoshi video streak: 6!!!
Truly an impressive performance.
12:30 that dk jungle race wow one of the best races i seen
Good video man, keep it up! Recently started liking Mario Kart because of you, seen almost all your videos; I cant play 8 deluxe but I like watch you play.
"I just need to play well and hope for the best." Immediately gets no item 😂
Diddy Kong is my favorite character and the fact that he has really good stats is incredible. Thanks Nintendo !
Shortcat proves he’s Canadian because as an American I’d be crashing out every single video with some of these clips
I love the competitive content

Shortcat should get an award for most goated mario kart player and the most plot armor.
Love these videos it has earned the spot of video i watch while i eat
Inward drift competitive when
waiting for shortcat to upload is my favourite part of the week ive nearly Binged watched all of your Videos
“I should’ve bagged” is a very normal line I say after a bad race
Diddy Kong has plot armor that Yoshi doesn't have.
This truly is a competitive Mario kart 8 deluxe 8 moment
6:30 youre so good at that track, i watch youre vods in random order and your older ones you talk about a long winstreak but im failing to see you lose on this track ever :D
i love these competitive videos, i hope you do more!
I love that every time you get hit I can hear the Canadian because you complement them
21:39 W learning your lesson there from last lap and using your red to destroy an item that was dangerous
I don't even play Mario Kart anymore but i still enjoy watching ur videos
Im so happy i get to see a FFA in action. Ive heard FFA existed but im happy to see it
Hey you are my favorite mk youtuber and today us my bday so this video is the perfect gift thank you!
16:58
This is the second most infamous Bullet Bill incident I have ever seen. The only one more infamous was at Koopa Cape, with the victim of that Bill having been asking for one from the item boxes.
"Oh my goodness, give me a Bullet Bill."
**gets hit by Bullet Bill**

19:48 This was the most tragic race I’ve ever watched, damn
Mario kart gives, Mario kart takes
Oh, another batch of npc dinosaurs who like riding an overpowered vehicle made of old cloth and looks like a unharmful bear! Amazing!
That Madrid Drive-ing was INCREDIBLE!!!!~
Loved this episode of running super yoshi I mean yoshi I mean yoshi I mean mario kart tournaments
shoutout to that one guy donating like 5 cents on the last vid to request a ffa lol
I love these competitive Mario Kart videos ❤️
Congrats on 100 MK8 videos!
This is truly the Shortcat Competitive Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
20:05 Made me laugh a lot more than it should've xD
"i don't give a shortcat" is something only shortcat would say
I finally found you jperm and it was by accident. Joy has returned in my life after hearing your voice
"If you cant beat 'em, Join 'em."
Shortcat:
8:03 turned into like a vocal suppression of woody woodpecker
ShortCat on Diddy Kong, OH WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY
Whoop whoop a good day Shortcat uploaded! Favorite day of the week 💕💕
24:50 The cleanest race I have ever seen before
Short cat was finally gaming the last 10 minutes of the video
love your competitive videos
Ok but real talk, that was some fantastic driving on waluigi stadium.
aint no race like a diddy kong race
That was a VERY clean Madrid. Especially for not playing it recently. As for Neo Bowser - it's just one of those tracks.. All the curves and thin roads makes it so hard to avoid getting hit or bumped off
I think the worst thing about the yoshipocalypse is that yoshi is one of if my fave mario characters to play, esp in mk, so i've had to move to my second fave, Kamek, even tho he's not the best
I'd watch a long series of these videos.
loving the competitive content!
love the vids very much too bad it doesnt come out 1 or 2 per day :) much love keep up awsome work love any type of video you make even if its just normal game without an objective like combos and stuff
Glad to know I'm not alone saying neo bowser city is my kryptonite
Everybody gangsta until shortcat Joins the lobby 🥶
love the video and wish you recorded more often!
“I picked brown character on a brown track, so I get a speed boost” -Shortcat 2024
This is a certified ShortCat classic!!
Him: what am I doing wrong?
Me: STOP HOLDING ONTO YOUR ITEMS WHEN YOU KNOW A DOUBLE IS COMING UP. USE ITEMS EARLIER.
8:01 Is this a new way to save time?
Probably not because he probably only made it because of his star. He also was on the offroad afterwards and didn't get slowed because he still had part of the star boost left. So for time trails probably not but for comebacks sure
Maybe if you could somehow land back on the road?
@@simonkim8646 I also think that on 200cc it could be possible to get up there shroomless but the speed you need to get that is too much i think
When you are so good you don’t need the best combo to win
I’m impressed you managed to get second using what was essentially a handicap. Definitely probably would have gotten first if you used yoshi
Nothing beats watching short cat on the weekends
