Blud switched to driving the meta for the Top 5 to show he wasn’t fucking about. The RightLads_8DX waffle session was well worth the wait, solid vid lad 🙌🏻
fun because i consider maple treeway as "nobody can hate maple treeway" seeing how i always see it in top tier in tier lists (i mean, i also do have it as one of my top 8, with one of the best music in the series), though i can respect people who don't like treeway i also personally don't really adore koopa cape, even in wii (though to be fair, wii has a stacked new track lineup), it's an alright track in wii that didn't fare as well in its 7 and 8dx incarnations; as well as moonview in 8dx (though i love it in wii and hoped for it in 8dx, it's nowhere near the best traffic course in 8dx, it was my monkey's paw)
Respectable rankings and opinions about the tracks, one of the best ranking vids I've seen but some of my favourite tracks in low tiers but still some good opinions on some tracks!
My biggest issue with the city tracks is that with the exception of bangkok rush they are all either American European or from east asia. I would have died to see a track based around rio or cairo or delhi

This a great ranking video. Unlike many other people, you point little details and strategic shortcuts that I never knew about in all my years of playing MK8.
Must say i WTFed when i saw how low you put WiiBow, but critiquing for not being hard enough, extremely based imo i respect that. Also love you put toilet at #1, i love how different peoples top 5 list as compared to other mk games where pretty much everyone agrees on what the best maps are, just comes to show how many amazing tracks there are in this game. Also you need to GIT GUD AT BONE DRY DUNES A TIER TRACK GOAL GOAL GOAL GOAL SUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Great Ranking, I can agree of Wii RR being ease-ified in 8DX, but Madrid, Squeaky, and Singapore are my favorite tracks in this game, their so good and exciting to play when they get picked online.
Gee, hyping up Toad Circuit (or something like that). Where have I heard that joke before? But hey at least you ranked Tick Tick Clock in 2nd place. I seriously loved its redesign.
You have to keep in mind: these BCP tracks were first made for Tour, a game that plays differently from 8DX. Regarding your critique of Sunset Wilds, I just don't agree with the idea of it being 'lazily made' simply because it was shortened. It's a conscious design choice for redesigning a track over 20 years old at this point. As for the visuals, while not great, are certainly a step above the Wave 1 tracks. Compare it to something like Choco Mountain or Shroom Ridge. See what I mean?
if they can improve bc3 to the extent that they did, i don't see why they can't do the same with sunset wilds especially considering the fact that it's probably the much more popular track too
@@l1ammk Not every track needs to have a huge revamp, regardless of fan favourite status. A few flat and simple courses are a welcomed break from the more ambitious ones. As for Sunset Wilds, there's really not a whole lot you could do with it. The most you could do is restore the sunset gimmick and add the Swoops from the Tour version, but even that wouldn't do that much. Sunset Wilds doesn't exactly have the same potential for a remake as, say, Sky Garden or Ribbon Road.
Personally I like Rosalina's Iceworld's ring of death. Mostly because I tend to frontrun on that stage. And I tend to get a lot of Bombombs while in first. Also its just a really fun turn.
Late comment but the oil fields in Los Angeles are actually pretty iconic in cinema. Lots of great scenes from classic movies use the LA oil fields as the setting and so I actually thought it was cool to see Nintendo include them in LA Laps
Very good tier list! The best I've seen in my opinion. I was also surprised how much I agreed on many parts, especially on the worst, best and tour tracks. Personally, my top 3 best tracks are: 1. DK Summit 2. Madrid Drive 3. DK Mountain And my 3 worst: 94. Excitebike Arena 95. N64 Rainbow Road 96. Toad's Turnpike
I actually bought the booster pass after coming across this video! 3DS rainbow road, ninja hideaway, yoshi's island, dk mountain, and amsterdam drift were my favorite new ones i played and most of those are probably in my top 10 courses now (i'd hafta think about it) great video with some really unique and different rankings!
I’m really happy that wild woods made it to B tier , and the Wii U was a bloody great console! I played it for 9 years before I started playing switch properly
Baby Park really hasn't been the same since Double Dash. The original track had only a small bump in the middle rather than full on guard rails, which allowed items to cross over to the other side of the course, and Double Dash had special items like the big banana and Bowser shell, which blended amazingly with this open middle. Removing special items and adding a guard rail in the middle completely gutted the course back in DS, and giving it anti-gravity in 8 didn't really fix it. It's just a boring oval with nothing really special about it now. The Double Dash version is peak. The rest of this video is just insane though. Some of these rankings are completely baffling. Also, the uptalk is really irritating. Sounds like every sentence is a question.
I'm surprised that you didn't bring up the WORST part about n64 Yoshi Valley is the removal of the the mystery placement gimmick. The thing that made path selection so fun in the original is that you didn't know which one was best, revealing who you overtake or who overtakes you mid race destroys the entire gimmick
Blud switched to driving the meta for the Top 5 to show he wasn’t fucking about. The RightLads_8DX waffle session was well worth the wait, solid vid lad 🙌🏻
Well, I will respect all your wrong opinions.
There's no wrong opinion. If your opinion another man's opinion thats not an opinion.
I’ve never been more offended that toad circuit is above Electrodrome
The toad ballons saves it!!!
Electrodome is ass
6:17 green shell jumpscare
It’s been almost 10 years since 8 came out, and here I am just learning there are coins on the far side of the windmill in moo moo meadows
Same 😂
35:40 preach. Maple isn't objectively a bad track by any means but the constant praise that people give it make it way harder to appreciate
idk why other peoples opinions affects your opinion but eh
@@blazecanon754 I just don't like the track in general lol. But you bring up a good point. We should think for ourselves what is good and what isn't
Comparing it to mkw i feel like maple is way less played on 8dx
fun because i consider maple treeway as "nobody can hate maple treeway" seeing how i always see it in top tier in tier lists (i mean, i also do have it as one of my top 8, with one of the best music in the series), though i can respect people who don't like treeway
i also personally don't really adore koopa cape, even in wii (though to be fair, wii has a stacked new track lineup), it's an alright track in wii that didn't fare as well in its 7 and 8dx incarnations; as well as moonview in 8dx (though i love it in wii and hoped for it in 8dx, it's nowhere near the best traffic course in 8dx, it was my monkey's paw)
Because 8/Tour ruined it
The piranha plant jungle theme from 3D world playing over riverside park was a super nice touch.
i have watched 3 mins 30 seconds and i now must hate you liam sunset is goated
think i'll be redeemed a good bit from my ninja opinion
@@l1ammk you are forgiven
I think next time pout out the main gimmick of the track (The sun goes down causing the track from sunset to night by the time you are in third lap)
Only Liam can get me to watch a 2 hour video of mk course rankings and be entertained by it. (PK here btw)
Respectable rankings and opinions about the tracks, one of the best ranking vids I've seen but some of my favourite tracks in low tiers but still some good opinions on some tracks!
can't believe this is only the second 96 track ranking video i've seen from a competitive player, first being Awoken
I love how Awoken opened her Toad Circuit segment at "Is this high enough for you L1am?" when she literally ranked it higher than you LOL
still wasn't high enough tbh only I get special privileges to criticise GOAT circuit
lol fair enough
My biggest issue with the city tracks is that with the exception of bangkok rush they are all either American European or from east asia. I would have died to see a track based around rio or cairo or delhi
Bangkok rush is also from East Asia. Unless you’re counting Southeast Asia differently in which case so is Singapore speedway
Sydney Sprint.

This a great ranking video. Unlike many other people, you point little details and strategic shortcuts that I never knew about in all my years of playing MK8.
Mushroom gorge and Waluigi Stadium are the best and Toads Turdpile easily the worst
toads turdpile had me coughing in my room at 12 am
At least toad is a good character
I think I’m the only one who likes Toad’s Turnpike
@@MoKaProductions27yes
Nice to see Madrid Drive get the respect it deserves!

love this video.. think I watched it 3 times now!! Great video bro!!
I RANKED TOAD CIRCUIT HIGHER THAN YOU AND YOU SAID IT WASNT GOOD ENOUGH
Squeaky Clean Sprint also has the BEST music in the game.
You just roasted my 3 favorite tracks 😂
1. Royal Raceway
2. Yoshi Valley
3. Choco Mountain
who up wonkin they willy rn
How did you know
Fun fact. The guys on DK jungle after the bouncepad are called “tiki goons”
Gee, hyping up Toad Circuit (or something like that). Where have I heard that joke before? But hey at least you ranked Tick Tick Clock in 2nd place. I seriously loved its redesign.
yeah as a person from la i got no clue why they stuck the oil fields on la laps… they had so many better options for parts of la lmao.
1:11:01 Actually, I think the turrets outside are shooting the rocks that appear shortly before finishing a lap (I could be mistaken though)
this is such a fire video, thanks for this one mate
This might be one of the weirdest rankings I have ever seen.

It was really Nice to see the ranking of a competitive player !
28:09 If Mario Kart wanted you to feel like you're driving around London, they'd force you to play it on 1cc
LA Laps at 83 hurts :((
probably one of my favourites. nice list lots of mutual agreements and disagreements but pretty good list
Personally I like Rosalina's Iceworld's ring of death. Mostly because I tend to frontrun on that stage. And I tend to get a lot of Bombombs while in first.
Also its just a really fun turn.
Late comment but the oil fields in Los Angeles are actually pretty iconic in cinema. Lots of great scenes from classic movies use the LA oil fields as the setting and so I actually thought it was cool to see Nintendo include them in LA Laps
19:34 I'm with you!! I grew up with MK7 and didn't mind it there and don't mind it now (even if the grass looks like playdough 🤣)
Very good tier list! The best I've seen in my opinion. I was also surprised how much I agreed on many parts, especially on the worst, best and tour tracks.
Personally, my top 3 best tracks are:
1. DK Summit
2. Madrid Drive
3. DK Mountain
And my 3 worst:
94. Excitebike Arena
95. N64 Rainbow Road
96. Toad's Turnpike
So basically you find a lot of tracks boring and you hate multiple shortcuts
"the switch is nintendo's best selling console" the nintendo ds "am i a joke to you"
This was is probably the best ranking video I’ve ever seen, peak vid L1am
Cheese Land is the worst!
Not because of it’s design but because i am just to moronic to ever play it in a kind of good way…
1:56:52 my dumbass didnt even know you can trick off that thing LOL
nice someone qualified to rank the tracks
Bro: “I like tracks that give an abundance of ways to go about it!”
Also bro: “puts yoshi valley in last place”
Because all the other paths are literally just "lose the race".
I would say the main drawbacks of sunshine airport are the useless cut before the glider and the hard time coming back, extremely favors frontrun
Bro might like yoshi valley
finaly someone who sais the trueth about n64rainbow road
I actually bought the booster pass after coming across this video! 3DS rainbow road, ninja hideaway, yoshi's island, dk mountain, and amsterdam drift were my favorite new ones i played and most of those are probably in my top 10 courses now (i'd hafta think about it) great video with some really unique and different rankings!
Do not let him cook in F teir 🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
All I wanted was Airship Fortress hopefully we get it in the next game
I’m really happy that wild woods made it to B tier , and the Wii U was a bloody great console! I played it for 9 years before I started playing switch properly
I never knew there were coins around the windmill in Moo Moo Meadows until now!
Should... should i be taking the right path on cloudtop cruise?
My fave is probs melody motorway and worst donut plains cuz it’s well PLAIN
My man put N64 Rainbow Road below Toad’s Circuit for shame! XD
As a French competitive player, putting Bones Dry Dunes in 76th makes my hurt breaking...
??
0:23 seconds in, I wonder what will be third behind Big Blue and Waluigi Pinball.
Edit: at nr 49. DAMNIT!
Excitebike arena is the goat
Putting an N64 track at #64 is a fun
“Green shells are not that scary”
Me: 6:17
Madrid drive at 12!?
As a Culé it pains me to say I absolutely love Madrid drive, but I guess we are at least represented as the Yoshi’s 🤣
Rainbow Road 8 is my favorite rainbow, but yeah you were spot on, it's unfortunate.
They added the oil fields to Los Angeles to mock the hippies
Baby Park really hasn't been the same since Double Dash.

Excitebike isn’t last L list!
(questionable opinions aside good video!)
yo what's the soundtrack for when you were talking about Rainbow Road 8?
wedgehurst - pokemon sword and shield
i respect people who have unique takes
Squeaky Clean Enjoyer 👑
I see you everywhere 😂
Queen's ranking Baby Park at 94 and Ibuki does not agree with this
17:06 Blud started playing MK8U 💀
“Perfect super bounce” as he shows a clip of missing a super bounce
Hey I was on lakitu Mercedes give me a break LOOOL
At 14:45 what the hell happened to that bulletbill?!?
That bullet's on Lap 2
the alternate path on warios gold mine is slower on both games btw.
Moonview Highway is the best track in the game and I will personally die on that hill!
Clearly, we have different opinions. I enjoy every track you mentioned before choco mountain.
best ranking video ever.
I never thought I would see a list I agree and completely disagree with at the same time
Never thought id see such a banger
kinda disapointed that he thinks Yoshi valley is bader then Exitebike or other Ovals
Huh why Twisted mansion so high?
i just think its pretty neat
toilet soundtrack gets me so pumped
They did sunset wilds dirty man 🫲😫🫱
Toad circuit is actually well underrated i wont lie
Ranking Yoshi Circuit so low without mentioning item bagging, no way.
Bro just putting all the bagging tracks in f tier 💀
grinch posting starts at 13:07
YOSHI VALLEY IN LAST PLACE? That’s insane, it’s one of my favourites. However I do think it’s now too easy and prefer the N64 version
Great list!
Highest caliber of mk vids 🐐
Squeaky Clean Sprint and the worst, Toad Circuit
for me warios gold mine is great because it was the first mk track i ever played
*Wario’s Mid Mine
My beloved alpine pass 😭
I like the idea and design and stuff on squeaky clean sprint, but the sewerage section just always fucks my race
How about ranking every character next?
20:46 just noticed….
WHY ARE YOU PLAYING AS PGP
my glorious king Singapore Speedway better be S
I clicked away as soon as I saw Yoshi valley at the bottom.
