Bumping this and letting it sink into the dust.
I love Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, I'm a god at it, but not a constant 1st place god. I'm so good, the hard cpus can't even reach to my level. And I always pick random on online races, but the only time I don't is when Yoshi Circuit and Cheese Land is available for voting. Those courses are excellent for sandbagging. There are other courses like Dry Dry Desert, Yoshi Valley, Royal Raceway you name it. But alas, i'm only good at the 2 courses I always pick if again they're available to vote.
Anyway, my favorite courses from best to okay are:
1: Cheese Land
2: Neo Bowser City
3: Ribbon Road
4: Super Bell Subway
5: Yoshi Circuit
6: Royal Raceway
7: Dragon Driftway
8: Grumble Volcano
9: Hyrule Circuit
10: Music Park
(I really love DLC Pack #2)
Honorable Mentions: Mario Kart Stadium, Toad Harbor, Electrodrome, Bone-Dry Dunes, Cheep Cheep Beach, DK Jungle, Wario Stadium, Yoshi Valley, Tick-Tock Clock, Excitebike Arena, Wild Woods, Animal Crossing and Big Blue
My 3 favorite characters from overused to underused are:
1: Villager Boy
2: Baby Peach
3: Toadette
These characters you hardly see me play as, but you will if you're lucky:
Daisy
Anti Guy Black Shy Guy
Black Yoshi (It's not what it looks like, I swear!)
King Boo
Dry Bones
Bowser Jr.
Dry Bowser
Lemmy
Inkling Girl (Green)
Inkling Boy (Blue)
Villager Girl
And also, once in a blue moon you'll see me driving as Villager Boy in a Pipe Frame:
If you ever did see me on Mario Kart 8, vm me about this. (I'm called Paperboy01)
