Thanks for making this, Troy! Glad to see the Time Trial side getting some more recognition. Was cool to see all you said about each run :) Also, that Mario Kart Stadium world record is cheated, just so you know haha
@@WulzyHello Wulzy, Popular Geometry dash content creator making content from the hit always updated game Geometry dash. Jokes aside, It’s a nice surprise seeing you here, hope things are going well!)
Cool to see you doing time trials-related content, and I love the way you articulate high-level Mario Kart in a manner which anyone can join. Brilliant Troy!
It takes a lot of inside-drifting, mini-turboing, low-jumping, shortcutting, and perfect top tier character-vehicle combos with pure skill, confidence, unique strategies, and Mario Kart momentum to become the G.O.A.T. of surpassing even the most impossible 200cc time trial world records! Every world record is satisfying to witness for all tracks, especially the most absolutely busted shortcut world record on Rock Rock Mountain!
Being French, Roundabouts feel like such integral parts of the road system, I can think of 10 round abouts in my average size city alone (and there probably more I just didn't think of from the top of my head) Which is why I'm surprised to hear they are so few in the US
17:47 this is my favorite combo ever. I understand is god on this track but it’s so glaringly different from every other commonly used combo for wr runs
11:53 whole new meaning to “New York Minute”. Jeez these World Records are fast. Also I HAD NO CLUE THE STREETLE OPENED ITS WINGS LIKE AN ACTUAL BEETLE THAT’S SO SICK!
So if you want to know some more things : Streetle and landship are very useful or tracks with a lot of water, snow and ice. So that's why on dolphin shoals both ccs sherbet land 200 streetle is used, same for cheep cheep Beach. Slims tires are used for most speed tracks. Also the combo can change depending on the surface i think, some uses blue falcon, gold kart, standard kart, prancer for that reason. The snow land 200 combo is a mix of high mini turbos stats (baby character) with more traction (cushion tires). Cushion are also very useful for rock rock moutain because more air speed. And you can compare varmint with wiggler and teddy buggy, they have pretty much same stats. Babies are only used on tracks where you can chains mts, do snaking. Baby characters can charge mt faster and the boost is way longer. If gliders are too long ( mario kart stadium bowser's castle type of gliders) babies will not be faster. But gliders such as twisted mantion, cheep cheep Beach are not very long so babies are used there. If you do the same video for 150cc World records you will understand my point. Also most of world records uses rollers because better tires on this game but some uses leaf tires because leaf tires have higher speed in antigravity sections. So Wario and dry bowser are used basically for speed tracks or sometimes like peach gardens for higher speed + good mts because biddy buggy. But Waluigi and Roy are used for higher mts than dry bowser and Wario. Bowser and the other heavyweight characters are not used often because their stats are worse. Same for characters like Toad toadette dry bones for lightweight class and characters like mario Luigi peach daisy and the others. Also for most tracks you will see cloud and paper glider over others because better stats. Standard glider, Wario wing and gold glider are basically used for most speed tracks. I hope you understand what i said here. The game is pretty difficult to understand when you play casually because of différents combos etc.
It’s so fun seeing all the variety between the speed run builds. Also, seeing heavy characters squeeze between the track building up purple mini turbos is crazy. Seeing the lighter characters boost through levels with so many mini turbos is also sick. Love these speedruns!
Loving all the MK 8 stuff that's been coming out lately Troy! Looking froward to them as much as the MKWii stuff! Just remember, especially during the holidays to make sure you take some time for yourself and have a good and relaxing time!
33:45 this record is from a guy using a slight top speed hack, it's not super noticeable but that's why he beat the other records by such a large margin even with sloppy gameplay. It hasn't been deleted by Nintendo yet for some reason.
Been appreciating the MK8D content once again!! It’s been really fun to see you learn and improve at this game, both in 150cc and 200cc. I’d also love to see you react to all 96 courses once they’re out!!
1:18:33 trust me when I say this, time trialing to try to get to the world record level or even a decent time is so tough because a large majority of the wr's are held by I think 5 or 6 people, kind of insane
this did not feel like a hundred-minute video - you kept it so engaging throughout! i'm a bit of a mario kart newbie, and hearing your commentary is so helpful, as you articulate your thoughts in an accessible manner. thank you so much for your content, it's been both helpful and enjoyable!
That Mario Kart Stadium WR definitely is an hacked one. The real one is supposed to be a 1:07.271. This one seems to be speedhacked hence the very bad driving
hopping is usually good since it allows for shroomless cuts, and sometimes its at a start of a track that has a shroom at the start because it gets more speed for some reason. i hold twisted mansion 200cc wr and the track has multiple hops because for some reason hopping on the staircases gains time. inside drifting bike is used there because of the glider mostly. if it wasn't for glider there would be a potential for outward but inside drifting bikes work better on almost all turns
My favorite thing about you is that you do not curse and you keep your words clean so that's really nice and it gives me a fresh super mario feeling when i hear that your words have no cursing in it. It's really nice to listen to just playing a game having a good time. 💖
Totally right about MC3. I personally love it because it is a blast to drive on, especially 200cc. Not to mention the music is and always will be amazing.
Something with the Wave 3 150cc world records is that in Berlin Byways, the runner tricks off of the surfboard car, a first for any car track in this game. Also, I think coins make watching almos all these world records more fun. Lap 1 is almost always different from laps 2 and 3.
I didn't know how much hopping can help you redirect your drifting. It can kinda "stall" your direction so you don't hit the wall, which is something I need to do more often
Really happy of u making a time trial video, I enjoy time trialing in this game and pretty funny to see u react to u seeing these weird combos that are viable! Mushroom gorge uses yoshi because its the easiest for fence strats and yoshi having a ton of handling stats
MK8 Time Trials are awesome with how much variety there is in vehicles. Waluigi Wiggler/Biddybuggy w/ Roller is used online because it's good all-around for every situation, but when you're optimizing for only one track, there's a lot to consider since vehicles have 4 different speed stats for ground, flying, water and anti-grav. There's no reason to care about anti-grav speed if the track you're playing has no anti-grav parts for instance, and if you're playing a mostly underwater track like Dolphin Shoals, you want as much water speed as possible. Likewise, tracks with lots of turns like Waluigi Pinball will prioritize mini-turbo, while tracks with few turns like Moo Moo Meadows will prioritize raw speed. I'm sure there are a ton of other factors the top runners consider when choosing their combos that I'm not even aware of. It makes for a really cool meta compared to other Mario Kart games. edit: another thing I just realized is you want a high traction vehicle for slippery courses. Traction is often ignored by most players as it doesn't have a super-strong effect compared to other stats most of the time, but if you're trying to take the tightest lines possible, having good traction helps, hence why the Snow Land WR uses parts that all give a traction bonus.
16:30 i'd argue they actually matter more since speedrunners have to take each stat into consideration and test several combos for each track to see which is best suited for it edit: 32:56 even stuff like the vehicle's hitbox is being considered here, insane
Hey Troy, the dimension warping thing is actually due to the trick boost. You can see that whenever the trick boost happens, it shoots the vehicle super fast to the left.
I'd love to see you react to all the MKWii Kart world records. It's really impressive what has been done with karts and it would be interesting to see you react on how all the strats differ from the bike lines and what the time difference is like!
30:09 Actually, this is a new tech that has been found like three months ago. This allows you for some reason to make your boost when tricking way longer. I'm not an expert on this by I'm pretty sure there are videos about this on UA-cam.
I think the fact that this track 12:22 is one of peoples favorite is because its so simpelistic like we have so many different hard tracks to understand that this one is actually something different what people like. i think thats my favorite track off wave 2 aswell tbh
“alberto and army hold like half the records” alberto and army are top runners in the community. a lot of new records are them beating each other. theres other notable runners like technical, but technical usually runs specific tracks. mostly the rainbow road tracks i honestly think combined alberto and army hold more than half the records
31:46 This is called an "airhop" (pressing R/ZR after releasing a miniturbo after a ramp), it straightens your alignment and gives you a bit of a boost to your forward momentum. Saves .2-.3 here, which I think is more than any other application of that tech! You shoot *so* far forward with it, it's crazy
The fact that Troy doesn’t know all the vehicle frame names honestly hurts my soul. As a kid who played with really all the frames I thought even the Master of Mario Kart would know all the know all the names
38:06 thats called a JenZua glider, the player jenzua found it, you basically get a speed boost by being sideways while gliding (which is faster in mk8dx). recently its also been found to work on merry mountain by alberto
For hopping into cannon gliders, the reason it’s faster is because your glider comes out slightly faster than if you trick because there’s no trick animation
Hey Troy! It's interesting to know from your past DLC gameplay about your passion for travelling. What's your next plan for travelling? Love from Japan (home of Ninja Hideaway!). Keep the streak going!
I'm sure a lot of people know about this already, but I'm posting it here due to TWD talking about 200cc not showing up in Worldwides (9:45). There is a 24/7 200cc Tournament called the "200cc World Cup" by DeltaZ. It practically always has near-full lobbies, and it's only 200cc. The code is: 2697-4546-2827
16:32 In Fact, it does. It just is that the combos are optimized in every stat in these World Records, so it always just is the best possible combo every time, which can be very different from track to track.
It's so cool to see all these tracks optimised, but I didn't really think that I learnt something out of these. There always is something that I didn't know about the track that I could do. The actual track where I learned the most from that I saw the world record of is from MK7, Mario Circuit 2. My favourite track aswell. So it's not really from this video, but I thought it would be a good place to say it nonetheless. The world record on the track is so broken, but so cool at the same time, check it out I would say. This video was entertaining for sure, have fun!
If anyone is confused a UA-camr called bayesic has made time trial guides for most tracks with explanations of the builds and strategies for each track
The coconut mall motion glider part was insane, I thought there was a wall on top of the parking, very surprising to see that this track is still broken more than 15 years later
16:47 i GENUINELY had no idea you could boost there 💀 the only thing i don’t like about the dlc is not knowing any of the shortcuts and being shocked everytime i see one lmao
Awesome video as always! It's so cool to see how interchangeable every kart element is, there's so much diversity in kart, character etc, every character combo seems viable in competitve! Edit: 54:01 I had no idea this strat existed, blew my mind
Tip if you get a purple (ultra) mini turbo before a glider ramp it is faster to not trick, ex. The long turn before the glider at the end of electrodome
The Mario kart stadium record was apparently cheated, and from what I’m seeing it seems it may be an ‘everything is road’ hack? Either way I don’t trust that race. Sorry to damage the learning experience
For custom items for CPUs. Red Team: only gets stars( your team) Blue Team: only gets shocks Both teams can get Boos and Blue Shells to steal stars and shocks It’s actually crazy
I like the sharp editing between tracks, but could you please put the player and race time in text for each record next time you do something like this? I'd like to see you react to all the 150cc World Records! :)

wohoo
Love your MK8DX daily content
Yes
Do you have to buy for every new track group or do you pay once and get all the tracks?
@35:08 - Never say never, since we all thought Nintendo was finished with adding non-DLC content to this game, until just last week...
Things I liked
17:08 didn't realise you could just hop over that section
17:56 forgot that shortcut even existed
20:34 Forgot you could skip that whole section
21:56 that chain chomp was a ghost
32:15 What
45:13 I love how the kart just falls over
46:54 kart floats on water
32:15 was jentzua glider
i believe chain chomps dont work in time trails to prevent them getting triggered by the ghosts and hitting or moving away from the players path, hope this helps!

Legend!
Y’all are thanking this guy? The video has chapters ya know.
What if I wanted to see a specific track?
@@q12aw50 yeah the chapters were put in the video after i posted this
he used the time stamps i put in
They've managed to optimise these tracks so quickly, it's insane
It really is very insane how they just almost immediately optimize these tracks
What's even more interesting is how they figure out the best vehicle combo
We’ve * ❤
cuz they only stay in house and play game and dont touch grass

Thanks for making this, Troy! Glad to see the Time Trial side getting some more recognition. Was cool to see all you said about each run :)

hey tech whats up tech
so thats why i didnt see that one on mk8dx records.

Cool to see you doing time trials-related content, and I love the way you articulate high-level Mario Kart in a manner which anyone can join. Brilliant Troy!
Thank you Abel, appreciate it big time 🙏
It takes a lot of inside-drifting, mini-turboing, low-jumping, shortcutting, and perfect top tier character-vehicle combos with pure skill, confidence, unique strategies, and Mario Kart momentum to become the G.O.A.T. of surpassing even the most impossible 200cc time trial world records! Every world record is satisfying to witness for all tracks, especially the most absolutely busted shortcut world record on Rock Rock Mountain!
14:05 there is a pace lock. Taking the other route is impossible, since the train is in the way
Being French, Roundabouts feel like such integral parts of the road system, I can think of 10 round abouts in my average size city alone (and there probably more I just didn't think of from the top of my head)
Which is why I'm surprised to hear they are so few in the US
It's completely different every city but in SoCal, I've only seen a handful unfortunately
My town has one and it’s kinda infamous around the suberbs
Here in the UK, there's tons. Pretty much everywhere, on every turn
Here in Texas they are everywhere
I live in an average-size town in Spain and my street starts on a roundabout and ends on another XD
17:47 this is my favorite combo ever. I understand is god on this track but it’s so glaringly different from every other commonly used combo for wr runs
32:15 that is called a jenzua glider its a "new" tech that is used when you can vector your glider on a tricking ramp
11:53 whole new meaning to “New York Minute”. Jeez these World Records are fast.
Also I HAD NO CLUE THE STREETLE OPENED ITS WINGS LIKE AN ACTUAL BEETLE THAT’S SO SICK!
So if you want to know some more things :
Streetle and landship are very useful or tracks with a lot of water, snow and ice. So that's why on dolphin shoals both ccs sherbet land 200 streetle is used, same for cheep cheep Beach.
Slims tires are used for most speed tracks. Also the combo can change depending on the surface i think, some uses blue falcon, gold kart, standard kart, prancer for that reason.
The snow land 200 combo is a mix of high mini turbos stats (baby character) with more traction (cushion tires). Cushion are also very useful for rock rock moutain because more air speed. And you can compare varmint with wiggler and teddy buggy, they have pretty much same stats.
Babies are only used on tracks where you can chains mts, do snaking. Baby characters can charge mt faster and the boost is way longer.
If gliders are too long ( mario kart stadium bowser's castle type of gliders) babies will not be faster. But gliders such as twisted mantion, cheep cheep Beach are not very long so babies are used there. If you do the same video for 150cc World records you will understand my point.
Also most of world records uses rollers because better tires on this game but some uses leaf tires because leaf tires have higher speed in antigravity sections.
So Wario and dry bowser are used basically for speed tracks or sometimes like peach gardens for higher speed + good mts because biddy buggy. But Waluigi and Roy are used for higher mts than dry bowser and Wario. Bowser and the other heavyweight characters are not used often because their stats are worse. Same for characters like Toad toadette dry bones for lightweight class and characters like mario Luigi peach daisy and the others.
Also for most tracks you will see cloud and paper glider over others because better stats. Standard glider, Wario wing and gold glider are basically used for most speed tracks.
I hope you understand what i said here. The game is pretty difficult to understand when you play casually because of différents combos etc.
27:44 Maple Treeway is now the longest track in the whole game
Question: How many world records do you have?
Alberto: Yes

edit: 32:56 even stuff like the vehicle's hitbox is being considered here, insane
Hey Troy, the dimension warping thing is actually due to the trick boost. You can see that whenever the trick boost happens, it shoots the vehicle super fast to the left.
18:55 damn that's the second coolest 200cc gorge record! :mewhen:
nah jk that run is crazy, i love how MG turned out in this game
I'd love to see you react to all the MKWii Kart world records. It's really impressive what has been done with karts and it would be interesting to see you react on how all the strats differ from the bike lines and what the time difference is like!
Welcome to MK8D! Where (thankfully) there's no Funky Kong and Flame Runner.
30:09 Actually, this is a new tech that has been found like three months ago. This allows you for some reason to make your boost when tricking way longer. I'm not an expert on this by I'm pretty sure there are videos about this on UA-cam.
I think the fact that this track 12:22 is one of peoples favorite is because its so simpelistic like we have so many different hard tracks to understand that this one is actually something different what people like. i think thats my favorite track off wave 2 aswell tbh
I admire your enthousiasm for this game 😊 you make me wanna play this game more
The mariokart stadium run is cheated lol, the real world record is second ww by army but regardless, this is a great video! Absolutely loved it :)
10:49 Fun fact, I was the top American in 200cc for a few minutes after this track was released. Also the first American to go sub 66 seconds
Things i like lol
33:40 poor Troy, got dooped by the hacker on mks200. The real world record is by Army
41:31 when Troy calls TH200 simple
Crimson slim is the highest handling
33:43 Just in case, this player cheated on this track so this record doesn't count
9:47 I certainly didn't know about the 200cc shorcut here, as you said, I also expected to be a invisible wall or more like an out-of-bounds there
It’s fascinating because even the ghost trial given by Nintendo uses this shortcut
One thing I love about merry mountain is how much the music reminds me of the Mario & sonic at the winter Olympic Games
Nice, I saw the one you did for MKWII, so this is cool!🔥🔥🔥
14:25 I didn't know New York Minute had such a satisfying time trial, I normally hate the track haha. Has anyone heard from Nick btw?
“alberto and army hold like half the records”
alberto and army are top runners in the community. a lot of new records are them beating each other. theres other notable runners like technical, but technical usually runs specific tracks. mostly the rainbow road tracks
i honestly think combined alberto and army hold more than half the records
Woah. These WRs are crazy!
17:08 Sydney Sprint. I did not know you can jump over the stairs with the pink Yoshi and green Toad that early. Nice. 👍🏼
1:34:26 I had NO IDEA you could change your driving settings DURING A RACE. What?! I'm mind blown. Flabbergasted.
The edit of fuhhh when you hadnt connected the screen made me proper laugh mate. Love that the channel is doing really well too.
Fun fact he recorded this the day before he uploaded it, meaning he rec on Dec 12 and posted on Dec 13, and Dec 12 is my birthday :)
Records were insane fr!
14:15 Carts go zoom zoom fast fast
I haven’t really seen many records, would definitely watch more reactions/commentary for other Mario Kart records
that purple on new york minute like whattttttttttt
much love troy! been watching for a long time :)
32:17 I like Troy just looks so offended by this slide. “How dare they warp dimensions while I’M watching.”
nice for the mk8dx tt scene to get some recocntion, cool vid man
It's funny how the Baby Daisy uses the wall at 14:44 for making the left turn
31:46 This is called an "airhop" (pressing R/ZR after releasing a miniturbo after a ramp), it straightens your alignment and gives you a bit of a boost to your forward momentum. Saves .2-.3 here, which I think is more than any other application of that tech! You shoot *so* far forward with it, it's crazy
30:21 me when I let it rip as loud as I can
32:15 that yellow yoshi just consumed and warped wario into alternate dimention lol
Its like a super mario 64 painting lol
Bah Bah, Bah, Bah Bah, Bah
Bro missed yellow yoshi so much that he wanted to take a quick visit bro 💀💀💀💀💀
The fact that Troy doesn’t know all the vehicle frame names honestly hurts my soul. As a kid who played with really all the frames I thought even the Master of Mario Kart would know all the know all the names
I know Mario Kart Wii's vehicle names! Sorry I hurt your soul!
@@TWD98 it’s fine. I forgive you
17:43 I think they use that combo for the same reason we use magic cruiser in N64 Sherbet land
uhhhh, you mean 64 Sherbet?
@@jc___underscore___ yes. thank you
@@not_ike the funny thing is you put GBA, which is between the two Mario Karts with a Sherbet Land
What makes me feel like a pro for road circuit is that I’m only 1 second off the world record.
It took me a week to get that 😂
Nice, well done :)
@@falk9417 ty
38:06 thats called a JenZua glider, the player jenzua found it, you basically get a speed boost by being sideways while gliding (which is faster in mk8dx). recently its also been found to work on merry mountain by alberto
The ad placement before the shortcut at the end of Ninja Hideaway was outrageous 😂
For hopping into cannon gliders, the reason it’s faster is because your glider comes out slightly faster than if you trick because there’s no trick animation
Seeing the blue falcon used surprised me alot but i think it's so cool! It's always been one of my favorite ones in the game
Hey Troy!
It's interesting to know from your past DLC gameplay about your passion for travelling. What's your next plan for travelling?
Love from Japan (home of Ninja Hideaway!). Keep the streak going!
I'm sure a lot of people know about this already, but I'm posting it here due to TWD talking about 200cc not showing up in Worldwides (9:45).
There is a 24/7 200cc Tournament called the "200cc World Cup" by DeltaZ. It practically always has near-full lobbies, and it's only 200cc.
The code is: 2697-4546-2827
16:32 In Fact, it does. It just is that the combos are optimized in every stat in these World Records, so it always just is the best possible combo every time, which can be very different from track to track.
It's so cool to see all these tracks optimised, but I didn't really think that I learnt something out of these. There always is something that I didn't know about the track that I could do.
The actual track where I learned the most from that I saw the world record of is from MK7, Mario Circuit 2. My favourite track aswell. So it's not really from this video, but I thought it would be a good place to say it nonetheless. The world record on the track is so broken, but so cool at the same time, check it out I would say.
This video was entertaining for sure, have fun!
If anyone is confused a UA-camr called bayesic has made time trial guides for most tracks with explanations of the builds and strategies for each track
Although most of them are made before the stat changes
The coconut mall motion glider part was insane, I thought there was a wall on top of the parking, very surprising to see that this track is still broken more than 15 years later
16:47 i GENUINELY had no idea you could boost there 💀 the only thing i don’t like about the dlc is not knowing any of the shortcuts and being shocked everytime i see one lmao
Well, that's the best part of new tracks, discovering it's secrets with time :)
Awesome video as always! It's so cool to see how interchangeable every kart element is, there's so much diversity in kart, character etc, every character combo seems viable in competitve!
Edit: 54:01 I had no idea this strat existed, blew my mind
troy, australia isnt in europe
5:21 motion gliding is kind of a bug, that's why you can't just use the 2nd controlstick
Tip if you get a purple (ultra) mini turbo before a glider ramp it is faster to not trick, ex. The long turn before the glider at the end of electrodome
Alberto and army are probably 2 of the most people you see popping up in time trials in either first or second place
Mario kart wii has so much more freedom
Amazing video! Love your videos!
I yust cant believe this i fink im bad at mk8 now LOL i also lerned a few things here.
33:54 I never new about that shroomless cut. Very neat to learn!
The Mario kart stadium record was apparently cheated, and from what I’m seeing it seems it may be an ‘everything is road’ hack? Either way I don’t trust that race. Sorry to damage the learning experience
@@arachnidz7750 it’s a speed hack
For custom items for CPUs.
Red Team: only gets stars( your team)
Blue Team: only gets shocks
Both teams can get Boos and Blue Shells to steal stars and shocks
It’s actually crazy
Please make one for 150 CC! love these kinds of videos
The variety of karts is surprising
8:32 That's interesting since Cloudtop Cruise is Sky Garden in Japanese
I play 150cc so it would be great to see you watch those too!
I like the sharp editing between tracks, but could you please put the player and race time in text for each record next time you do something like this? I'd like to see you react to all the 150cc World Records! :)
@35:08 - Never say never, since we all thought Nintendo was finished with adding non-DLC content to this game, until just last week...
