  • In today's installment of Mario Kart, but with a TWIST, I will be forcing myself to use the objectively worst combo in the game! This combo features Bowser on the Badwagon with the Metal Tires and Gold glider, which leads to the worst stat spread in the game, with it only having good weight and speed. Will I be able to survive on this combo or will I drown? Find out in this exciting episode!

    Dude the way you drove between the statue and the hammer at the end of the second twisted mansion race is insane, i didnt even know that was possible and is such a narrow fit with how fat bowser is 😭 great vid as always bud :D ❤

    For those wondering what the worst combo for inward is, that would be Bowser, Master cycle, Hot Monsters, Gold glider

    • @Gecko-
      @Gecko-  Рік тому

      That sounds fairly accurate, but I think I'd run metals over monsters due to the mt reduction they provide

  • @nintenmario100
    @nintenmario100 Рік тому

    0:27 And weight as well as a bit in invincibility. I can agree that it is one of the worst combos in MK8DX. This combo has max speed, max weight, lowest acceleration, and the lowest mini turbo all in one.

    • @Gecko-
      @Gecko-  Рік тому

      The downsides outweigh the few positives it has by a massive degree, making this a pain to use and a pain to be good with.

    • @nintenmario100
      @nintenmario100 Рік тому

      Agree, the opposite to this combo would be the slowest combo, baby Rosalina, biddybuggy, rollers, and Cloud Glider. Lowest speed, lowest weight, max mini turbo and max acceleration. In my opinion, the combo in this video is the worst in 200cc. Also, you should've used the Standard ATV because it has slightly less invincibility, making it worse than badwagon.

  • @ciberkid22

    A kart so bad, an ultra mini turbo is like a super, super like a mini, and mini is replaced with the hidden micro turbo, exclusive to this kart

      Piranha prowler has acceleration, this combo has none of them (I ironically think piranha prowler would be perfectly fine in this game).

  • @LycopokySlimesy
    @LycopokySlimesy Рік тому +1

    Hey Gecko, can you use Luigi GLA tires teddy buggy and paper glider? JPGiviner thinks it is the best combo in the game, because it has same speed as Waluigi wild wiggler but has a +1 miniturbo comparing to Waluigi Wild wiggler

    • @Gecko-
      @Gecko-  Рік тому

      I'll eventually showcase the combo, but the combo (in my opinion) is not the actual best combo in the game. While it does have decent speed, the inkstriker mt completely outclasses it in relevancy.

  • @codyksp
    @codyksp Рік тому

    I think the Standard ATV and Gold Tires are worse as they both have 0.25 less invincibility. Also the Super Glider is likely worse than Gold Glider.
    There's an argument to be made for Slick Tires being worse, but they have good AG speed which kind of makes up for the other issues.

    • @Gecko-
      @Gecko-  Рік тому

      That is entirely fair, but my logic was that this combo doesn't use the popular atv builds that most competitive players like to use. While it's invincibility may be slightly better, its terrible acceleration makes the .25 difference not too relevant.

      It is still extremely bad on 150, but it is absolutely unplayable on 200. ATV might be worse stats wise, but this combo just feels worse due to being a kart instead of having ATV physics.
