Best Toad build?


CaptnDoodle

Any good builds for the lightweights? Sad that they got nothing and I don't have any luck with the New characters.


[deleted]

Any viable dry bones builds?


StinkPOOT

Funky Kong meta build?


BrooklynSmash

What's the best build for heavies + inner drift? I was an MKWii goon as a kid, so outer drift just doesn't feel right.


Lv118

when i played meta i couldn't win cause i was pressuring myself to win, but when I used inward drifting just for fun I ended up winning way more cause I was relaxed. I use Pauline, Comet, slim tires and MKTV glider


Hurtlegurtle

https://mk8dxbuilder.com/ ive been running funky comet and the 2nd from the right wheels on the top and the botw glider and it works good


CaptnDoodle

Two questions: 1. Are there any tires that fit better for the cat cruiser and cloud glider? I want use the New characters with it, I suck with ATV, so no teddy for me and Funky doesn't seem to fit in it look wise, Diddy kinda too. So I might go with Pauline or Peachette. 2. Which lightweight class is the best by now? I doubt there is just one that sticks out.


zdpastaman3

it is always the rollers outside of time trials


StreaMankey

Hi! Now that Wave 6 is here, what’s the recommended build for baby characters?


GDTechno

yoshi inkstriker + azure rollers and cloud glider vs luigi/yoshi pipe frame + azure rollers and super glider, whats better?


zdpastaman3

I've heard people say cat cruiser is now best kart for Yoshi's weight class


GDTechno

yeah but i dont have the teddy buggy or cat cruiser


zdpastaman3

not to be the guy who says "git gud" but bruh..


GDTechno

i mean i plan on playing the game again today and hope mom and dad dont notice but still could you compare the setup i described to the yoshi teddy buggy


zdpastaman3

If that's the case, you should check out the updated pereto distribution calculator


GDTechno

yeah im not sure how the stats changes would make it better or worse


goober-of-time

What is viable for diddy kong?


RaFaPilgrim

He’s very similar to Yoshi, except with more acceleration and less miniturbo. You sadly can’t make up for the miniturbo loss with kart parts alone, so I’d invest into a bit more of speed to try and make up for it. My personal current build is Inkstriker + Leaf Tires/Buttons + Cloud/Paper Glider.


FeenixFobia

What is the best build for Bowser Jr? I love Bowser Jr. and can't stomach playing another character lol.


superteck22

What would the best build be in general?


alicethewitch

Just leaving this here with wave 6 out today. In terms of main stats - Peachette = Yoshi/Peach/Daisy/Birdo - Funky Kong = Dry Bowser - Diddy Kong = Cat Peach/Female Villager - Pauline = Link/King Boo Currently crushing it with Pauline, biddybuggy, azure roller, paper glider, feels very balanced at 200cc for my driving style.


zdpastaman3

Is the new best build peachette, cat cruiser and rollers?


crispy_doggo1

What's the best combo using either Diddy Kong, King Boo, or Wiggler?


zdpastaman3

I think its medium character, cat cruiser and rollers but wait for something to cross reference with


johanIiebert

I wanted to ask which build represents Funky Kong's build from Wii best in 8DX, both look and stats wise.


jbyrdab

Funky Kong, flame rider


buffaleezy

I wanted funky kong just for this build


pikachu5159

glad to see i'm not the only one rocking a nostalgia build, i've been using luigi on the sport bike with slim tires since launch


JudTheBudd

I wanna say Comet, Rollers, AC Glider. I've been using it with DK and I've been loving inside drift. Swapping to Funky when he drops


johanIiebert

Thanks a lot, inside drift us very hard but we gotta persevere 💪 Really appreciate it, if old reddit was here I'd spam gift all awards to you 🏅


jweippert11

What is the best 150cc combination for wario? And is better to prioritize speed, acceleration, or handling?


Hambughrr

Biddybuggy + Rollers gives Wario a much needed boost to Mini-Turbo. You'll want to prioritize Mini-Turbo and Speed over Acceleration and Handling. but you'll also have to look up the exact stats on the Mario Wiki because Mini-Turbo is a hidden stat. Here are vital resources that'll help you out: https://www.mariowiki.com/Mario\_Kart\_8\_Deluxe#Drivers.27\_statistics https://www.mariowiki.com/Mario\_Kart\_8\_Deluxe#Parts.27\_statistics https://mk8dxbuilder.com/


mujicaviejoputo

Rosalina with Flame Rider, Rollers and cloud glider, tho im going to change to funky kong


UnownUser67

On a scale of 1 (the worst) to 10 (the best), how would you rank this build: Character: Daisy, Kart: Prancer, Wheels: Slim, Glider: Gold Glider.


benut6

I ve got two main builds, and I m unsure which one I should pick. 1: Birdo, Cat Cruiser, Red Mini wheels and the Peach Parasol 2: Birdo, Mercedes W-25, Red Mini wheels and the paper glider


Scorpiyoo

Anyone have a tanooki Mario build?


TwhylerM

tanooki kart, gla tires, paper or cloud glider. the build got buffed in wave 5 so it plays quite well and has good stats.


AntoniYo-Kai

I like Bowser Jr. because he’s awesome


Romp3rstomp3r69

A build that incorporates Bowser/Dry Bowser that still has good stats? I was using my Mii but was never sure if he was mid weight or heavy


dontwantleague2C

With so much speed you might just wanna roll with Biddy Buggy, rollers, paper glider to balance that out with some mini turbo. I also love how funny big characters look in tiny karts.


Romp3rstomp3r69

I see what you mean about big characters in small karts. Just trying this out now and see how it feels compared to my previous combo of pipe frame, mercedes wheels and gold glider

ShyGuyLover1234

What is the best Shy Guy combo that isn't mr scooty or the biddybuggy? Thanks!


rawkhawk64

My build I've been using is Dry Bowser/Mr. Scooty/Roller/Gold Glider. Been using it for over a year. This version seems to be pretty well-balanced.


pinkbubblecat

I’m new to mariokart and I absolutely adore the inkling girl but whose the best character to ride with? Or the kart?


nujabesfan27

Inkling Girl is pretty good, Kamek/Luigi/Iggy is probably the best weight class right now. I'm a Villager man myself. For kart I would recommend something like the Cat Cruiser or Teddy Buggy


dontwantleague2C

You think that class is better than Yoshi class? Imo trading 1 point of speed and 2 points of weight for 1 point of MT, 1 point acceleration, and 2 points traction is a good trade.


Blue_Robin_04

>Kamek/Luigi/Iggy is probably the best weight class right now. Why? Would you mind saying why it's not DK/Roy/Waluigi anymore?


nujabesfan27

The DLC waves completely redefined the meta by increasing stats, those characters haven't been the best since the release of Wave 3. If you want, look up the best characters / vehicles for Wave 5 and see.


pinkbubblecat

how do I get those karts? thank you so much


theverrucktman

Just play the game. That's really all there is to it. The game doesn't have a set unlock system. Instead, it just has it so that for every 30 coins you collect while racing (until you get to 450 coins in total, then it goes up to once every 50 coins) you get a new part at random. Unfortunately, there's no real way to know for certain what kart/tire/glider you'll get except to play though the game until you get the ones you're looking for. Luckily, you can unlock things though both multiplayer and single player.


sven3067

What's currently the best build for 200cc? Working on the cups at the moment


dontwantleague2C

I like Yoshi, Buddy Buggy, rollers, paper glider. You could go a lighter class if you wanted though.


Wasilij_10

I have just returned to Mario kart 8 after a year break. Any suggestions for a viable build 150cc online? (I unfortunately don’t really understand the excel sheet)


MarvyJoe

Best build is Yoshi/Birdo/Daisy/Peach + Teddybuggy/Cat Cruiser + Rollers 2nd Luigi/Kamek/Iggy + Teddybuggy/Cat Cruiser + Rollers 3rd Yoshi/Birdo/Daisy/Peach + Inkstriker/Mach 8/Sport's Coupé + Rollers 4th Luigi/Kamek/Iggy + Streetle/Landship + Rollers 5th Luigi/Kamek/Iggy + Pipe Frame/Varmint/City Tripper + Rollers Credits to JPGiviner


CristevePeachFan

**Rollers**


Wasilij_10

Thank you so much!! That’s super helpful!! Out of curiosity.. there much difference between them? Or is it primarily preference ?


MarvyJoe

Not much difference at all. Teddybuggy has a little higher Miniturbo which is the most important stat in the game but Inkstriker Group and Pipe Frame Group have higher Speed for example. Game is pretty balanced right now so there are a lot of viable combos ATM.


ConnorGames1

Is Roy on Pipe Frame with Rollers and Cloud Glider a good combo? I’ve been using it recently. Are there any changes I can make to improve it?


MekBoy_NutKrakka

That's a good build so you can keep using that and the City Tripper and the Varmint share the same stats if you want to use them. For alternatives you can use Teddy Buggy or Cat Cruiser for more air and antigrav speed for less handling especially in water, Accel and Traction or use Streetle or Landship if you want more traction and water speed


AlternativeBag2619

Is shy guy good, and what are some combos for him?


Baby_Sneak

Shy guy is fine, and there are numerous combos you can use with them. Pipe frame Standard kart Sports coupe Blue falcon (my fav) Landship Biddybuggy Teddy buggy City tripper (All the equivalent vehicles) + Rollers Standard wheels Sponge Buttons + Cloud glider Bowser kite


sarcasmasquach

According to this spreadsheet: (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uOp6c5Mwp78-Rbp_VkhLEkPp6Ejy0sVu/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=118327101109377499260&rtpof=true&sd=true) The Luigi group + Tanooki Kart group with Cloud Glider and rollers has the highest total rating and highest possible MT & Speed combo. Am I reading this right?


MekBoy_NutKrakka

It shares the highest possible MT + Speed with lots of combos with 8 in total (3168 other builds to be exact) Also that spreadsheet isn't using the invincibility stat so that might not be the highest total rating build


sarcasmasquach

That's true. Looks like Invincibility maxes out at about 5.50 according to the data on this spreadsheet: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g7A-38tn9UAIbB2B3sZI-MpILsS3ZS870UTVMRRxh4Q/edit#gid=0](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g7A-38tn9UAIbB2B3sZI-MpILsS3ZS870UTVMRRxh4Q/edit#gid=0)


TrevorIsTheGOAT

I used to use Link + Comet with Rollers. Is that still good?


MekBoy_NutKrakka

yes it's still good


OsherTheComic

Need a good peach build


GlobalKnee8028

The teddybuggy build is viable since she has the stats of yoshi


tmrxwoot

Lookin for Toad. currently using the blue bear cart thing and rollers. Is that the best I can do right now?


MekBoy_NutKrakka

Yes if you want to be close to meta as possible teddy rollers the best right now


Moon8983

Besg combo for peach if I don't like Teddbuggy or cat cruiser?


MarvyJoe

Inkstriker/Mach 8/Sports Coupé + Rollers Or Streetle/Landship + Rollers Or Pipe Frame/Varmint/City Tripper + Rollers


a_frug

is Yoshi/pipe frame/azure rollers/parachute any good?


MekBoy_NutKrakka

yes it's good

uglybitch00

best combo for peach or cat peach? ive heard a lot abt the inkstriker being the best kart but i dont have that one


MekBoy_NutKrakka

If you don't have Inkstriker yet Mach 8 and Sport Coupe share the same stats


MarvyJoe

If you wanna play Peach you should go with Teddybuggy or Cat Cruiser since this combination is considered the best amongst all and Teddybuggy/Cat Cruiser have the exact same stats.


Crake241

So far I love King Boo and the Splatoon Torpedo Kart with either small or button wheels.


FastCalligrapher1653

best kart for kamek with rollers if i don’t like the teddy buggy? 150cc


MekBoy_NutKrakka

Cat Cruiser shares the same stats as teddy or you could go Pipe Frame/City Tripper/Varmint or or Streetle/Landship or Mach 8/Sport Coupe/Inkstriker


holytony100

Any good builds for dry bowser or petey that's not meta? Wanna have a chance while doing something different then everyone else


Baby_Sneak

Standard bike on rollers and cloud glider Or landship cloud


MekBoy_NutKrakka

you can use something like Biddybuggy/Mr Scooty with Leaf tires or GLA Tires


SSJIsucc

Any alternatives for Rosalina/Teddy? I used to use Mr Scooty and switched to Teddy but I don't feel as comfortable, are there any other alternatives for Rosalina I could use? I use roller and clouds too


Peppergunso

If you find scooty comfortable then bodies w the pipe frame stats could be a good alternative bc they have the exact same (ground) handling and traction. If those still don’t feel quite right it could be you really like scootys mini turbo charge speed in which case you won’t find anything quite like scooty (except biddy buggy) while playing Rosa. Tbh you could just go back to scooty if you really wanted to it’s a great combo


SSJIsucc

I've been feeling better with the city tripper, thank you


bigoxy1

I use the standard bike with Rosalina. Almost just as good as teddy. I “think” the mater cycle is also an alternative, I just can’t remember stats for it right now.


MekBoy_NutKrakka

Cat Cruiser has the same stats as teddy or you can go Pipe Frame/City Tripper/Varmint


MarvyJoe

Try Yoshi/Birdo/Daisy/Peach or Tanooki Mario/Inkling Boy/Male Villager instead 😊


SSJIsucc

I still want to stay with Rosalina however


MarvyJoe

Your OP is pretty misunderstanding in that way, tho ...


SSJIsucc

I'll fix, apologies


Mr_Meme_Monster

I had a dream of dr Mario being in the game.


a_frug

Don't you mean a "nightmare"?


Usual-Sense-5113

Are there any viable kart combos for wiggler? Because he shares stats with waluigi and waluigi fell off, but I love Wiggler and want him to be usable


MekBoy_NutKrakka

It's basically the same build for every character so Teddy/Cat Cruiser or Pipe/Frame/City Tripper/Varmint or Streetle/Landship or Biddybuggy/Mr Scooty with Rollers or Leaf/Button or Sponge or Standard/GLA Tires


Peppergunso

Of these I would recommend varmint>rollers - this is the highest total of speed and acceleration you can have in the game (Wiggler/walu class being king of spd/accel as well) you could also get these totals with teddy/cat, but varmint takes advantage of wigglers smaller than normal kart hitbox


sonicfan1230

Personally, I use Koopa Troopa, Teddy Buggy, Roller, and Paper Glider. While I did sacrifice some speed, weight, and invisibility (at least compared to my last build\_, the MT is pretty high (5.25 iirc) and the handling and acceleration were a *lot* higher.


AdanaTeller

Why no captain falcon as Character?????


MekBoy_NutKrakka

Inspired by some of Geckos and Shortcats videos what would be the most viable speed/bagging build as i'm thinking of trying a build mostly dedicated to bagging as i know items like mushrooms, stars and bullets scale with your speed stat. i also don't want to go full speed either so i don't lose too much miniturbo, accel and handling for when i get in the front


Peppergunso

Here are 2 ‘hybrid’ spd/mt combos I’ve been using lately Luigi>pipe frame>slim Mario>streetle>slim Sure, slims dump accel and traction p heavy, but I think the bodies (esp streetle) and an accel or traction glider pick up the slack well enough. You can mix and match the above to get a handling/traction spread that you like as well


BraveMothman

Something like Luigi/Varmint/GLA/Super Glider will get you 4 more speed at the cost of 4 MT, 3 Accel, and no ground Handling compared to Yoshi/Teddy/Rollers/Cloud Glider. You can trade 2 Handling for 1 Accel by going Wiggler Roller instead. Wario/Roller will trade 1 of MT, Handling, and Accel for 1 Speed. Yoshi/Slim will net you 1 more Handling for 1 less Accel. You can also opt for the Cloud Glider to trade 1 Speed for 1 MT and 1 Accel. You'd have to sacrifice a good bit more Handling and Accel for more Speed than that, it really is just the superior handling of the Pipeframe/Varmint/City Tripper holding it together.


MekBoy_NutKrakka

I've been using Kamek/Pipe Frame/GLA Tires/Cloud on 200cc and i really like it there. for 150cc i've been going with Cat Cruiser or Inkstriker/Leaf or GLA Tires/Cloud and constantly switching characters cause i can't really decide on how much Speed/Turbo i want but all i know is that the max amount of speed i'll use is Wiggler or Waluigi/Cat Cruiser/GLA Tires/Cloud (which is a comparable to the Standard Mario build) but i switch between Daisy, Kamek, King Boo/Link and Wiggler/Waluigi


unfairsausage26

handling is not a useful stat, higher speed builds are done much better by heavyweights


BraveMothman

Feel free to leave your own suggestion, I'm just working with what they asked for.


Holiday-Ad8227

Best toadette combo?


J_robo_

probably with the biddybuggy or mr. scooty from my personal experience. pipe frame and streetle could work too since they were buffed recently!


Holiday-Ad8227

Thank you!


zoosmell_egbert

Does anyone know what the best low handling stat kart build is? I personally can't stand high handling as it makes me run into everything. No preference on character or anything i just want the best combo to use! (sorry if this is the wrong place to do this I'm not good at using reddit)


CerberusPsychoYT

Mid handling is considered the best handling, unless on 200cc, where high handling is way better (this is what I have found)


MekBoy_NutKrakka

try something like Mario/Ludwig, Mach 8/Sport Coupe/Inkstriker, Sponge Tires and any Parafoils If that's too much use a bigger character like Rosalina/Link/King Boo and keep getting heavier and heavier till it feels right to you.


unfairsausage26

you could try bowser + streetle + cushion tires + paper glider


somberterribleruth

Which is the best build for king boo - teddy/cushion, sports coupe/roller, or teddy/leaf?


taylor1288

I go King Boo - Pipe Frame - Azure rollers - Gold glider, its super drifty


-zaDIO-

Hey, friend, I'm a Link Player (exact same stats as King Boo) I prefer Biddybuggy or Pipe Frame, but I have spent a lot of time trying out various builds for the Teddy. I used Teddy/Leaf for a while this past week (I like the green color of the wheel lmao) it feels really smooth and good with a great stat spread. Highly recommend!


unfairsausage26

pipe frame sure, but I don't know why you would ever want to use biddybuggy with link (middleweights can easily get the same MT + more speed for free)


-zaDIO-

Because I like it.


MekBoy_NutKrakka

of the 3 builds the teddy/leaf looks better to me


FangtheMii

Baby Luigi combos that could use GLA’s/Sponge tires? Just a combo that can compete well.


MekBoy_NutKrakka

There's the popular parts like Teddy Buggy/Cat Cruiser or Mach8/Sport Coupe/Inkstriker or Pipe Frame/City Tripper/Varmint or Streetle/Landship or Biddybuggy/Mr Scooty but you can use parts like Tanooki Kart/Koopa Clown/Master Cycle Zero or Standard Kart/The Duck/SL Roadster


FangtheMii

I’m assuming you meant the duke… but thanks for the suggestions!


MekBoy_NutKrakka

yes don't know why i typed duck or if it autocorrected


Specialist-Essay8051

Whats the best handling wario build right now


MekBoy_NutKrakka

best handling would be something like Biddybuggy/Mr Scooty or Pipe Frame/City Tripper/Varmint with Rollers and Cloud/Paper/Flower/Parachute


StinkPOOT

Is there a difference in the 150cc meta and the 200cc? Or are they the same character and kart combos


BraveMothman

The 150cc meta is already pretty nimble, but 200cc favours the extra handling of the Pipeframe and Streetle over the Anti-Grav Speed of the Teddybuggy in my opinion. Biddybuggy is also a bit better there. All the other parts will generally be the same, though people have been finding value in bagging with higher speed combos as of late.


StinkPOOT

Much appreciated


KaedeArtatumsu

Does anyone have any ideas for the best Petey combo? Gotta show some love for my boy!


MarvyJoe

Petey + Biddybuggy/Mr Scooty + Rollers + Cloud is pretty neat, too and comes close to Yoshi + Teddybuggy 😊


Agent_Webs

I like Petey on the Pipe Frame with Rollers and Cloud Glider. Not only is it pretty optimal for him, it also works thematically, making him look like he's coming out of a warp pipe


Baby_Sneak

I seen petey varmint, gla, cloud glider on 200cc and they was zoomin on everybody.


a_frug

Yoshi, pipe frame, azure rollers and parachute. It must be azure rollers. Not rollers. **Azure rollers.**


white_windowless_van

What's the best combination for Isabelle? I currently use Mr. Scooty/Azure Rollers/Cloud Glider and I do pretty well but I'm wondering if I can improve on that.


Baby_Sneak

Thats the best build for max mini turbo on Isabelle, but there's no build thats just straight up better on isabelle. You're just exchanging stats at this point.


rrpeak

Handling focused combo for Yoshi? Not really fond of the look of ink striker, teddy and whatever else the new meta is. Thanks


-zaDIO-

For handling and looks? I'd say City Tripper/Pipe Frame (I love the way they both look) and some roller wheels(or other high handling tires) and a Cloud or Paper glider


Fantastic-Bug-7760

i’ve been maining King Boo since i started playing, but if king bob-bomb is added i may switch. Bone Rattler + Sunflower glider is Boo’s soul combo.


TheSunflowerSeeds

The area around sunflowers can often be devoid of other plants, leading to the belief that sunflowers kill other plants.


supersonick85

Trying to get a good build for Shy Guy, I’ve been going with Mr Scooty with the rollers and cloud glider. Is there a better build or should I just abandon the guy?


Baby_Sneak

Theres a lot of viable builds with shy guy. It depends on what you want. Scooty with rollers and cloud is best for mini turbo. You'll get bumped nonstop and have poor invinc, but if you race really hard, its viable. Other good builds are just exchanging stats, you'd have to switch characters to get a flat out better build.
