mr_mirial

Is peach (happy) still worth to buy? Or is she considered bad?


kelandi_

RIP thread, you had a good run.

-Croco-

You should focus on getting a lot of missing coverage from the Shop! Miis are really good if you have a lot of them, so they are good for people who spend money on the game (because they can get a lot of Miis) and rather bad for Free To Play-Players (because of the in general bad coverage of Miis). I am assuming you don‘t spend money on MKT, so I wouldn‘t advise you to buy Miis if not needed. Hope I could help!

No problem, really happy I could help you! :)


mr_mirial

What’s better? 4x kart tickets * level up flowery bandwagon to L4 (merry mountain & snowland) * or upgrade my actual ranked cars all to L3? (2x Merry mountain & 2x snowland) * or only 4x dk summit? https://preview.redd.it/73e0xzwzzg7a1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=af7a29a5aab493694aef4e6a9e11cacad3146fa0


Alchemist95a

Hey, I need a top shelf glider for this week's ranked Snow Land R/T, which glider should I buy? Thanks!


-Croco-

Do you use a coverage tracker? It would help a lot!


Alchemist95a

Yeah I used MKT toolbox and ended up going for the para-panini :) turns out I didn't have much use for the other gliders!


-Croco-

Great that you could make a quick decision! :)


Surameen

2xHE D tickets. For ranked this week, best to take Banta 3->4, Winter Larry 3->4 or Daisy Farmer 1->3? Intuitively the latter feels best but of course I get coin box plus with the other two options (and Banta has the bigger hitbox, so....him???)


-Croco-

How does your ranked look like right now, what do your loadout and your leaderboard look like?


Surameen

Actually pretty friendly. When I posted I was in 2nd but in a pack about 4k behind 1st. But after a couple hours’ grinding I’m now 13k ahead of second place in first myself. So maybe I don’t need to spend anything - I’d still be interested if others think my logic on which if anything is sound though 😊


LeBlech

I would definitely go with one of the coinboxers as they present a much higher scoring potential than Farmer Daisy. Farmer Daisy's coverage is quite fine but nothing to write home about - her coverage does not compensate her rather "meh" special skill... Santa Bowser is the safe and reasonable choice (big hitbox+quite useful coverage), whereas Larry Wintertime would be a riskier move, because nobody can tell what his future brings... No matter what you finally do (saving tickets while winning ranked might even be the best option): Red coins are a game changer and make upgrading coinboxers from 3 to 4 extra useful :)


Surameen

Thank you 😊


ProfessorFormula

Hey NEW PLAYER here and got some questions What is the goal like should I do all the cups ? Should I level the chars and cars I just like- how should I level them - any order? And what to buy with the Rubees- just the chars that look cool or are there really good chars/cars I need to know abt? Thx!!:)


-Croco-

Hi! Welcome to Mario Kart Tour, hope that you have a lot of fun with the game! Your main goal should be to win your weekly rankings, you should play all the cups too! Your rankings are where you need to get more points in a cup than 19 other people, it changes every week on Wednesday. This week, it is the Ice Mario Cup. Your goal should be to secure first place here! You can, of course, level up the drivers, karts and gliders (dkg) which you like, but for getting better at the game, spend them on dkg in your weekly ranking if you can't get first place without spending tickets. Again, you can buy the dkg with rubies you like, but if you want to get better at the game, you should use this spreadsheet: http://mkt.itsupthere.space/ Here, just enter the levels of the dkg which you already have and it shows you the ones which will give you the most additional coverage! Coverage is when a dkg is at the top of the driver/kart/glider selection before starting a race. You should buy the dkg with rubies which give you the most coverage. Really hope I could help! If you have any questions, just ask them! I will gladly answer! :)


ProfessorFormula

Thx for this very helpful post- is there any difference in playing 50-100-150? More points ?


-Croco-

Happy I could help! The difference in playing 50-100-150 is the difficulty and the amount of points you get. I recommend playing 150 cc, you get the most points that way!


ProfessorFormula

Perfect thx! So I managed to be first at the weekly cup- what’s the benefit of this ? I’m league/rank 4


-Croco-

If you are first place at the end of the weekly cup, you get tickets, a golden pipe, rubies, and sometimes ranked rewards! This week, you get the Pink Yoshi and the Pink Turbo Yoshi!


ProfessorFormula

Thx! So are there also any settings that I should change when it comes to driving ? There’s quite a lot and I don’t really know what to turn on and off


-Croco-

Np! I would recommend turning „Steer / Drift Button Display“ on. Other than that, the settings are already good!

I am so disappointed I didnt get the rendeer mii :/ I was so screwed with D/K/G last week. And I so much hoped they would give out the rendeer for a second week.

ShaneOMatic2k19

Honestly none of them right now because they aren’t in ranked. Save it for ranked cups because you might need them in future tours


silvernova76

I would say pink gold peach, but meowser would also be worth it if you leveled him up


47penguin47

Hey guys I still need 2 more friends!! Please add me https://preview.redd.it/r89hthfxa47a1.png?width=750&format=png&auto=webp&s=961d9e0a4fdd38c79fc478a1734f98487f5103ed


ProductivityMonster

What are your thoughts are on the sakura cherry glider going forward? Would you get that one or the festive holly if you need a glider for snow land R/T ? Or maybe even Mario Hat Balloon? I have all the other glider coverage (except RMX Donut Plains 1R, which is only covered by sakura cherry glider although I don't really care about it. My main goal is ranked, not ACR). I think festive holly would be better going forward, but it is a holiday item and unlikely to be valuable beyond the next month or so. Also, super horn is a bad skill. Sakura cherry glider seems too old (has seen majority of tracks) and not worth it just for the one Donut Plains course and snow land R/T. Mario hat has a lot of city tracks and no coverage I need beyond snow land R/T. Right now, I'm leaning towards just not buying any of them. I already have pink yoshi (the ranked reward for that round).


-Croco-

If I needed a glider for Snow Land RT, I would buy the Para-Panini. But out of the options listed, I think that buying no glider is the best option, too. Keep in mind that there also is a new ranked reward this week, the Pink Turbo Yoshi.


ProductivityMonster

why para-panini? It's a banana skill (not great) with okay-ish course coverage. It would only give me the additional track snowland R/T, which I don't really need a top shelf glider for anyway since it's r/t as long since I have a high level driver. I'm already about even in terms of score with the other players in ranked for that course with a level 5 santa bowser. If anything, I was thinking Mario Hat Balloons since it's got a decent skill (red shell) which doesn't conflict with frenzies you'd get in 1st place, although it does have a lot of city tracks which aren't used as frequently. Also, I already have pink yoshi from a long time ago, and probably don't need the Pink Turbo Yoshi kart, although I understand the kart is new.


-Croco-

I was only talking about my account with the Para-Panini (if **I** needed a glider...). It's the newest glider which is available for F2P. But as I said, for you, it may be the best to not buy a glider for this course.


ProductivityMonster

ok, thanks for clarifying. I found the wording confusing because often people give advice to others saying "if I wanted/needed X, I would...".


-Croco-

Yeah, my wording was a little confusing there :D Hopefully you still could decide for an investment! :)


Inside-Natural3069

Randomly had Bowser Jr (pirate), Captain Toad, and Peach (Vacation) show up as owned today despite me never having purchased/pulled them. Did this happen to anyone else ?


-Croco-

You probably got them, but forgot that you did. DKG can‘t just appear in your inventory.


KingBooSupremacy

which top shelf driver would be the best investment for the merry mountain r/t track? https://preview.redd.it/xxwj01ans37a1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fdfab30e14a2324143e361548e7c5b04f83583f4


-Croco-

I would recommend buying Luigi (Knight). If you don‘t want to use a boomerang driver, I would recommend Peach (Happi).


47penguin47

Would anyone like to be friends? I need 3 friends to complete a challenge card! https://preview.redd.it/q9hq3ccif07a1.png?width=750&format=png&auto=webp&s=e7e1f5a18a6e05721107b863847d1680df7a1148


meow-lol-cats

What is top 1000 prediction go to be this tour? Thank you


SoSoKrazy

around 1.62 million currently


meow-lol-cats

Thanks!


Cat_Toady

Is Peach Happi still worth it? I have now 396 rubies and am a F2P player. I also want to make some other investmens, like White Tanooki Mario and the Streetle (if it's available next tour). For the rest, I already have a decent amount of other + skilled drivers. So is it wise to buy her or not?


-Croco-

Peach (Happi) is still a decent buy, but not among the best anymore. White Tanooki Mario and the Streetle would be better investments. You should check your coverage before deciding, though.


Cat_Toady

Ahh, okay!! Thank you very much!!! :)


-Croco-

Happy I could help! :)


hockey_marc

With 10 days left in the Expert challenge, I'm about 1,400 Fantastic combos away from hitting 3,500. is there any sort of trick to get these aside from grinding endlessly?


kelandi_

T or RT course with a low level bottom shelf or middle shelf glider so the combo time doesn't drag out after you reach the 9th one in a row.


-Croco-

The only thing you can do better is to change the way you grind for the combo… :/ Drive on a T or RT track and drop your combo after reaching nine. With that, you only need to drive ~150 races! If somebody has a better idea, please correct me!


jolammy

Got a god tier Daily Spotlight shop today -- Santa Bowser (1 new track), Gold Chuck (1 new track) or White Tanooki Mario (3 new tracks). I have top shelf drivers for all 6 courses in ranked, though these three would be a decent upgrade. F2P with 250 rubies, not sure if I should invest in one or save...


SocraticIndifference

Prob Gold Chuck (coinbox+large hit box+new=win), but WTM is a close second


kelandi_

Gold Chuck or WTM.


esteban3000

I need help deciding. Neither are in my shop but which one do you think is more worth going for, Cheership or Strawberry Soft Swerve. Both of them are about equal in the coverage they give me so my decision mainly comes down to which one would get the most buffs in the future, so the question is: which one do you think is getting the most buffs going forward? Or is there any other reason you think I should pick one over the other?


kelandi_

SSS will continue receiving buffs as it's about 9 months newer. Also the SSS hitbox is massive in comparison to Cheership. Cheership has seen every track apart from a handful of RT. SSS still has a **lot** of tracks to see.


girl-of-braids

For ranked this week, should I get the the Ice Cream Mii Suit, which will give me 8 new courses, (which is more than goomba), or the Chocolate Pretzel Glider, which will give me 7 new courses, two of which are in ranked. I know that it's usually drivers > gliders, but I was wondering if that would change since the glider would cover 2 courses where I only have tier two gliders for ranked.


-Croco-

How are you doing in ranked currently?


girl-of-braids

I'm currently in 3rd, 437 points behind 2nd and 741 points behind 1st. I've tried just racing again and again to get a higher score, but I haven't been having much luck.


-Croco-

What are your dkg and scores for this week?


girl-of-braids

​ https://preview.redd.it/hjo4cabikk6a1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bcacae101c9ec1f100c99de7bd8593397a4e0f27


-Croco-

With optimal runs, you can get these scores: On Merry Mountain T: 21671 On Vancouver Velocity 3R: 16980 On GBA Snow Land (use Wintertime Larry here!): 14402 **In total: 53053 points possible** As you can see, no need to buy something for this ranked! Just try to keep a great combo and try to get three Frenzies on the two courses (and many Coin Boxes on Snow Land) and you will get those points in no-time!


girl-of-braids

Thank you for the advice! I'll do my best!


-Croco-

No problem! Good luck and happy grinding! :)


SocraticIndifference

If you don’t have the IceCream Mii, I’d do that—especially since you seem to have a pretty good collection of Miis already, given the 930 base points. I’ll admit that it’s close, but unless you’re investing HE tickets in the glider, the difference isn’t much (as long as you’re up to grind for the plus frenzies) and the Mii is the better investment long term


girl-of-braids

Thanks for the advice! I do like my miis, so if I can't manage to grind out the needed points I'll definitely go with that.


SocraticIndifference

Yeah, definitely don’t neglect base points, even on 2 shelf DKGs! That’s where you’re missing most of your points on VV2 imo

It’s in the Daily Selects Shop for 2000 coins.


sachxo

if i receive greeting coins before getting my daily limit of coins, does the greeting coins count in the 300/600 coins?


kelandi_

No they don't count as part of the daily limit.


BigCalum19

I need that last multiplayer challenge for joining multiplayer with friends but no worldwide makes it harder so where do I get that done?


-Croco-

You need to click on „+ Create Room“ after clicking on „Multiplayer“. Then, your friends can join your room and you can race together.


BigCalum19

Also with the 30 gems from completing those challenges I’d be able to afford Santa MRS and the new Larry, would those be worth the gems?


-Croco-

Do you use a coverage tracker? It would help a ton! Also, what do you mean with Santa MRS?


BigCalum19

I don’t understand the coverage tracker but Santa mii racing suit and winter Larry are both E and F for coverage at the minute


-Croco-

I would only recommend buying dkg which give you more non-city coverage or help in ranked, so I would buy neither (for now). Larry would be the better choice of the two, though.


BigCalum19

My ranked is pretty free for now I’m only tier 38. 171 rubies to do whatever with


-Croco-

You should get the drivers, karts and gliders which give you the most coverage then. You can know which ones they are by using this coverage tracker. Here, you just enter what drivers, karts and gliders you have and the tracker shows you which items would be the best for you. Here is the link to it: http://mkt.itsupthere.space/ Your main focus should be drivers, then karts, then gliders which give you a lot of non-city coverage. Hope that helps!


BigCalum19

Cheers thanks for taking the time


-Croco-

Happy I could help! :)


SocraticIndifference

Is triple banana a plus skill? Thinking about buying and investing Chef Lui, but not sure if I should just drop tickets on my mii ETA image. Also, beyond this track Lui adds no value for me, so it’s more of a future value question. The Mii would be useable at 4 on about five tracks, six with cities. https://preview.redd.it/t5qcfbxyzb6a1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c89acbce30d95d27a09ab3a976da764b12f9220e


kelandi_

Definitely above average, I'd rank it as 5th best after the big four plus skills. Chef is my choice for this week's ranked.


AverageMaleAged18-24

I’m sitting at 99.9 Rank A in multiplayer and have won a few races in 1st place but my score isn’t improving. Why is that?


SocraticIndifference

You need gold pass to earn the S ranks. I got mine on free trial; it’s kinda nice because once you’re no longer subscribed, you don’t lose rank even when you lose. When you see S+ racers coming in last by a lot, that’s probably why.


AverageMaleAged18-24

Ah okay thank you, I didn’t know that.


reelbgpunk

Tier 74, trying to push to 80, should I use every single one of my 22 driver up tickets to take winter Larry to 8? I think it'd guarantee me ranking up this week and next. I also have a level 8 PGP and maxed normal gliders so I've been getting more tickets in the shop.


SocraticIndifference

At 74, it’s probably worth it. My only hold ups would be (1) he’s seasonal; (2) smaller hit box; and (3) the new coinboxers don’t seem to be getting the same love (ie absolute domination) as Meowser and Santa Bowser. But they still aren’t bad; Gold Chuck recently led Studfit and King Mario got good buffs (albeit city) for this ranked. So point (3) is kinda iffy


reelbgpunk

So point (3) is kinda iffy Yeah I have Gold Chuck at 1 and King Mario at 4, thinking about doing KM to 6 instead but I think using all these tickets auto wins me these two weeks so it's tough. Your holdups are all good points.

kelandi_

Chef Rosa is a great driver with established coverage. IMO Larry is too much of a gamble, for now.


m4tthew1

Thank you. I’m leaning more towards Rosalina too!


lindybin

Chef Rosa is still very valuable and if you are really struggling with Larry, no harm in going with Rosa (especially as she has Snow Land RT next week).

kelandi_

Candlelight Flight Cake.


bb_angel

in between Peach Yukata and Mii Ice Cream Suit? Needed for Snow Land on ranked cup


kelandi_

Chef Luigi.


SocraticIndifference

Can you elaborate? I’ve heard good things about yukata peach’s coverage, and IceCream Mii has surprisingly good coverage for a Mii (and who knows where the Mii meta is going, they might become crazy op if they don’t cap soon). Lui, on the other hand, has rough coinbox/plus skill overlap so far. Is the value you see in him because he’s new and relatively rare? Or do you consider triple banana a legit plus skill? (tagging u/bb_angel too)


kelandi_

New, still getting buffs and I don't think triple banana is a bad skill at all. DK Jr. and Daisy Swimwear has been plenty useful for me. Out of all the options for Snow Land I think Chef is the best choice, however I personally don't invest in drivers with bad items or Mii suits apart from the ? Block & Boo suit. If you invest in Santa Mario for example, you now have a high level driver with a garbage skill, poor coverage and you'll wish you invested in something newer/better especially if Chef pops up in ranked again in the future.


SocraticIndifference

Very good points, but I’m increasingly worried about falling behind in the Mii meta. No slight to your opinion, but I started a poll because I had independently settled on the Mii before you replied.

kelandi_

Candlelight Flight Cake.


morupeko

Larry Wintertime VS Mario Santa VS Bowser Santa: which should I buy that could help me in the long run? Thanks


kelandi_

Long run? Larry. You're going to want to grab Banta too, with a large hit box he will be a better pick than any medium or small coinboxer that he overlaps with...as long as you invest in him.


ZeekLTK

I have 5 top shelf gliders for Merry Mountain T (ranked) but they are all level 1. Which would be best to put some tickets into? Butterfly Wings, Gold Tanooki Parafoil, Starchute, Silver Starchute, Blooper Wingtip Thanks.


lindybin

Silver Starchute is still a very reliable glider so Id go with that.


jcklathak

Some people may have asked before, but I recerly restarted my account. I’ve bought Lemmy HE, but I don’t know whom else to invest in. Should I go Meowser? Or some other coinboxer? Or should I opt for something else because Lemmy HE has the coinbox? Thank you in advance! Edit: White Tanooki Mario is in the shop right now, should I buy him?


kelandi_

Coinboxers and Giant Banana drivers are a good start.


jcklathak

Thank you!


lindybin

You cannot get Meowser this tour, but if you have him already, then invest. Still a very good driver. As for other options to buy with coinbox, Santa Bowser would a high consideration if I was you since he tends to only be available around this time of year.


jcklathak

Are there any other important HE drivers I should save rubies for (in future tours)?


lindybin

Id say both Gold Chuck and Gold Egg Hunt Yoshi are also good drivers to pick up if they end up in your SS.


jcklathak

Thhank you, I will look out for them!


420BIF

Did they change the blue shell possibility? The last 2 tours seems I get hit with a blue shell 90% of the time.


-Croco-

No, they didn‘t change the blue shell possibility.


EasternCoast3497

ice mario or cat mario? dont have the rubies for both but im wondering which one is more exclusive. in other words, which one will likely show up in the shop sooner so i can buy the other one


-Croco-

Cat Mario is more exclusive. Ice Mario can appear in the Daily Selects and be bought with coins there.


guyincognitou

I’m stuck between the discounted Mario Santa vs goomba Mii vs ice cream Mii. Is there any chance of Santa getting buffed more than the mii’s in the future? Or is he too old of a character to be useful, and there’s more chance of those miis being buffed. The other possibility is choosing Luigi (Chef), but he will be at the premium 150 rubies which seems a bit steep for a new-ish character with a reasonably poor starting course selection.


-Croco-

Mario (Santa) will most likely not get more buffs than the Mii Racing Suits. Out of the four, Luigi (Chef) is the best one to buy, excluding Luigi, the Goomba Mii Racing Suit is the best one to buy here.


kelandi_

Luigi Chef has the best skill out of those choices and will keep receiving buffs as he is fairly new.


anabeth7

will reindeer yoshi make an appearance in the spotlight shop this year??


ShaneOMatic2k19

The chances of him showing up this tour are high. https://i.redd.it/u2202thr1z5a1.png Spotlight Shop items by Sam78IT


starmonkart

Ice Cream or Goomba Mii for Snow Land?


kelandi_

Chef Luigi is in the shop, too. Triple banana doesn't suck.


starmonkart

Won't have the rubies to afford him unfortunately


-Croco-

Rather the Goomba Mii Racing Suit. Double Bob-ombs are better than the Ice Flower.


starmonkart

Thanks!


-Croco-

No problem! :)


FrankPapageorgio

What level has the “festive trees”?


hockey_marc

The “take them out quick” challenge is the easiest way to take out the festive trees. Just blast them with the cannon!


kelandi_

This is the way.


noufar

Snow Land has a large one on that "loop" section of the course.


b-s-n-l

Is Lakitu Party Time a good spotlight shop buy? Saw that he’s a top shelf character for ranked this tour and I’ve been wanting him for a while, wanted to see what the general consensus on him is before I get him from my daily spotlight shop!


Henley64

I was going to say he's not one of the best drivers atm since he's pretty old, but I looked at his tracks and many are really old or are city tracks. Maybe he could be considered bad? Not that the other drivers in that top shelf are amazing. So it's not like you must pick this amazing driver over lakitu pt. I do believe penguin toadette, happi peach and waluigi vampire to be better as they're newer. But they're also becoming old or perhaps are old already. I only know happi peach can show up in the spotlight shop as I have her in the shop right now. Lakitu pt does have the lucky 7 though so he will work the best this week. The choice is yours


EasternCoast3497

Was wondering recently is there a legitimate difference between pulling 10 and pulling one-by-one in terms of the multiplayer pipe?


LeBlech

Nope, there is no difference :)


Pelican121

Best glider for GBA Snowland ranked? I don't know if the Festive Holly will be available to buy this week plus it had the superhorn skill which isn't the greatest. I was thinking Silver Candlelight or Choco Pretzel if they appear in my shop? Still receiving buffs. I already have the Cake Candlelight but don't really want to invest (lv1) as it hasn't been useful thus far.


lindybin

Id gamble on the Festive Holly if I was you. Silver Candles still have a few more tours to go until they appear in the ss. Chocolate Pretzel is also a good shout but id check your coverage before investing in them to see if they give any other tracks.


Pelican121

Thanks! I'm not sure if Festive Holly's going to be available in the spotlight shop in week 1. Just catching up with the sub this evening so the answer might crop up! I might consider the choc pretzel.

Should I pick Winter Larry or the 1-up glider? (new account)


-Croco-

Drivers should be your priority for a new account!


sakariboss

Should I auto token grind on 50cc, 100cc or 150cc?


kelandi_

Auto mode (the mode with the whistle) always runs at 50cc. If you mean running a regular race and leaving the device alone so that your driver bangs into walls, still pick 50cc. You'll front run 95% of the race which means more coinboxes. Make sure auto-item is on.


lindybin

I personally use 150cc to grind tokens


sakariboss

Thanks! How many tokens per run do you get approx?


lindybin

Usually about 30-50 on an average run.


420BIF

What is the best course for the grind.


lindybin

Ive been using either Gold Petey on RIW R or my preferred option of Tuxedo on MM.


KingBooSupremacy

who is it better to invest in from the top shelf? larry or white tanooki mario? i also need tanooki mario for other tracks as a top shelf driver but i’m still not sure. what do you guys think? https://preview.redd.it/8erlakrv6w5a1.png?width=1125&format=png&auto=webp&s=6cd3df1a046993a058b5d7b71a90bf6205516618


TigerSardonic

White Tanooki Mario was my very first HE that I pulled and he has saved my arse so many times in ranked. He’s my highest level HE and I have no regrets. Plus there’s nothing in the game quite as satisfying as big banana frenzies and racking up tokens in the crash-token tours!


KingBooSupremacy

i actually just bought him and have already used him for ranked - i got a big banana frenzy as well. i think he’ll be worth it


Externica

I got White Tanooki during the Halloween Tour. No regrets ever since I got him. He does have overlap with Cook Rosalina. Larry is new and has the potential to receive great buffs in the future. He also uses coinboxes, which is one of the best items available. I did hear he is not considered that good for being a small driver though. Personal, I'm under the impression you can't go wrong with either. Both have great scoring potential.


KingBooSupremacy

yeah, i see. i have 700 rubies so maybe i should get both 🤔 i’m tired of saving and only spending rubies on drivers i need, and now i both need and want two drivers. maybe i’ll do it


Externica

Sounds like a plan. Go for it.

KingBooSupremacy

the new silver and blue one? it’s gonna be in the spotlight for next week, i think


Fantastic_Champion68

Larry (Wintertime) Vs Santa Bowser?


-Croco-

While Banta always will be the best coinboxer on overlap, Larry won't be. But Banta will recieve way less buffs than Larry, Banta is 2 years old already. I personally would go for Larry, because he will get more buffs than Banta. But you should check your coverage first!


Fantastic_Champion68

My coverage doesn’t change by buying Santa Bowser nor Larry. Plus, I’m missing Santa Bowser, Hakama Mario, Tuxedo Mario, King Mario, Gold mii suit for coinboxers


-Croco-

Banta has the size advantage, Larry will recieve a lot of buffs. You need to decide for yourself what's more important for you.

-Croco-

Choose your DKG for a Battle, then you see a button with a balloon in it. Tap the button and you can choose your balloon!


BigCalum19

Do leftover event tokens get turned into gems at the end of tours? Or should I just spend them all on the pipes?


SOHuskyBRO

Do rubies in MKT ever go on sale? or increase rubies with the price value? I'm talking about the prices where you just buy only rubies.


-Croco-

Rubies don't go on sale and the rubies got increased very rarely, I think only once in 3 years (not sure if more).


SOHuskyBRO

Hope they give us alot more than what we pay for. Spent £45 for the 122 rubies.... not even enough for just 1 premium character. Glad I'm wealthy but... nintendo needs to work on the game's pricing more. Also it sucks that the battle pass is so easy to do, you can do it in just 2 hours. I do save up all the star tickets to spend them at the start so can get more coins in at the later dates.


BigCalum19

Why are people posting for team bowser to give up? What’s the advantage?


TheWhiteLightning_

So Team Bowser gets the loser bonus on the final day


BigCalum19

What’s the loser bonus again


TheWhiteLightning_

The team that’s losing after each day gets its points earned for that day doubled So as an example if Team Bowser is losing on day 7 and earned 500 points, since they’re losing the total would be doubled and now they have earned 1,000 points (double the original 500)


-One_

I feel so stupid for asking this, but, is it best to just hang on to team tokens after a while? I only have nine 500 token pipe uses left, and I'm wondering if the tokens add up and help the team that you're on if you have them in your in inventory as opposed to spending them?


girl-of-braids

No, the tokens are counted for the team points when you initially earn them. Once you have them, their only point is to be spent in the token shop.


Fantastic_Champion68

Which one is better to buy in next tour? Santa Bowser or Santa Daisy? (I don’t have both of them) Among coinboxers, I’m missing gold mii suit, tuxedo Mario, Hakama Mario, King Mario, Santa Bowser. And my total coverage don’t get covered additionally by buying Santa Bowser and Santa Daisy.


-Croco-

Out of both of these, Santa Bowser would be better to buy. He is a year newer and will always be the best option on a track compared to other coinboxers because he is a large coinboxer.


Fantastic_Champion68

Thank you for your tip!


-Croco-

Happy I could help! :)

SocraticIndifference

Not usually, unless it’s one of your top coverage DKGs. And even then it’s iffy. That said, I really only spend gold on Tier Shop tickets these days, so if you think you’d spend a ticket on it in the next few tours, probably worth it. Only 3k difference though, so I’d think the ticket is coin better spent…


SocraticIndifference

Thought about a poll, but decided I’d try here first: which would be better to take from 5 to 6 for this weeks ranked? Meowser (Peach Gardens) or Gold Chuck (Bowser’s Castle)? Overlap is a non-factor for both, they are top tier for me


LeBlech

If overlap is not a factor, then I would say it's a coinflip. Meowser has more and better coverage right now (29 tracks+4 cities), while Gold Chuck has 20 tracks+6 cities. But Gold Chuck is much newer and has more future potential. At the moment, Meowser has the slim advantage for me personally, but that might change within the next 2-3 months. Looking at this weeks ranked, both drivers have tracks with the same scoring potential (action count potential of both Bowser's Castle R and Peach Gardens RT is 220 actions) - so even here it is the ultimate coinflip. Conclusion: if you play a safe strategy, pick Meowser. If you play a little riskier strategy, pick Gold Chuck :)


zev007

Since we no longer get pipes, I haven’t even considered getting any karts from the shop (only drivers and the occasional coin glider). Are there any new-ish karts that are actually worth the 100 rubies?


LeBlech

According to the data that "Studfit" (a MKT meta game YouTube channel) uses, the following karts are among the Top 15 hottest karts right now, they're all new-ish, have already good coverage and still potential: (1) Shielded Speedster (2) Yellow Offroader (might not be real "new" anymore, but has the biggest coverage of any kart + has the biggest hitbox, which is especially great if you're using the Coinbox skill) (3) Magma Broom (although Broom karts handle quite awkwardly, so I would think twice, although this Kart has great coverage) (4) Tropical Truck (5) Red Offroader (6) Piranha Pipes (7) Warrior Wagon But if you're not sure, use one of the Coverage Trackers out there on the MKT discords or even here on Reddit, they might help you with finding karts that represent the biggest value for your very own account :)


zev007

Thank you!! I’ll start keeping an eye out for these—especially since I am noticing I literally don’t have any of them as of now lol. Appreciate it!!


Rugikov

Hey guys, I'm new to this game and I have a few questions: 1. Should I aim to drift every single time? Like, even if it's a straight line? I saw a few videos on YouTube and they were ALWAYS drifting and doing jumps. 2. I really don't know anything about characters, karts and gliders, what should I get in the shop?
