i appreciate the ability to change the footer color back to what it used to be but i genuinely think that green is one of the worst color choices for footer design
lol tfw late replying
a big factor in it unless your playing all cups is RNG and resets based on it, and speed recovery SSMTing with heavy characters and both of the factors in most cases nullifies advantages with luigi over metal or bowser
what i consider to be a glitch shortcut is something that requires respawning in a specific spot or clipping through something to progress much further in the course, rest of the known shortcuts are more of unintentional cuts that don't break the track limits themselves
definite glitches: maka wuhu, wuhu loop, luigis mansion, bowser castle 1, daisy cruiser, maple treeway unintentional shortcuts: koopa city ng wr shroomstrat, rosalinas ice world sc, rainbow road shortcuts, dino dino jungle jump, the list goes on.
bruiser pros: easy to charge ssmts, better offroad bruiser cons: harsh handling, slower in air, heavier kart in general
overall not too much of differences compared to bdash but ppl tend to use it more just due to how nimble bdasher is compared to bruiser in complex tracks like walugi pinball and the handling in general is super important when performing strats like TC wr shroom strat
if 2nd place has reds, and you can't utilise the track you're in to destroy them: use the mushrooms, getting hit is 3-4 seconds easily lost if they don't have reds, utilise them on the best track shortcuts, however if game allows, save 1 mushroom for as long as possible to protect against blue shell, although if none appear by mid lap 3 then you should use it
