I can't believe Shortcat beat the world record while simply practicing at his worst track! What a talented player, it's like he's 6 years ahead!

This was great. I’d love to see an online match or two at the end of these training sessions just to see the real-time application of the practice. Good stuff!

Tick-Tock Clock is another word for "Speedrun" lol

Liked the new video style! :) a couple things that could be cool to see in the future: 1. A couple online races on the track before you learn them, and then a couple after. It would be really fun to see how much your improvements affect the mode you want to use them in! 2. Idk if this is always an option, but showing the WR on screen or it’s ghost while you’re doing some runs could be cool!

This format gels well with your commentary- plus I love time trial mode! Maybe end with an online race to display what you learned along with your review of your best time? Also you could up the bgm in your unedited best time so it's that much more hype :o

Always looking forward to your videos every week! And getting to see a pro and how they practice on a track they're not good at is such a welcome guide on how to practice gaming imo

I actually really appreciate these videos cause I feel like I’m getting better at the track just by watching lol

Would love to see you learning the new tracks, it would really help us in learning them to while seeing your thought process :)

If you keep up these kinda videos, I’ll watch just so I get tricks for tracks.

I absolutely love time trial content, not many MK8DX KZfaqrs post about their personal time trials so I’d love to see you to make progress on time trials. You’re pretty decent at the track, but I highly recommend you do 3ds Rainbow Road next, it’s such a technical track and lots of fun if you know how to run it perfectly!

This is actually my favourite videos of yours! Love seeing how you broke down the world record and just took elements that would be useful for online.

I love this video! It's nice to see someone breaking down the WR and slowly getting better through practice. I'd love to see more videos along these lines

The satisfaction of the mini turbo sound effects and just watching the overall speed with skill progression on this course makes it more than worth it, definitely perfect. GGs :D

Nice to see you learn, Tick Tock clock is actually my favorite track, so I think it's unfortunate it gets picked so rarely

I appreaciate you showing all the attempted tries to get your shortcuts and tricks etc. I can learn from you and actually feel better about my mistakes as well. Thank you

I really liked this video style! I think it's cool that you're able to practice and get down the WR techniques as quickly as you did. I would absolutely be delighted to see more videos of this format in the future, whether with OG tracks or with wave 5. Whatever you decide, I still love your content :)

I really enjoy watching the training session. Your commentary and editing is great.

I’m so glad I found you, honestly you’re the reason I’ve recently took the time to try and get really good at Mario kart and you’re def my favorite Mario kart channel ever

All your videos are both entertaining and educational (in terms of Mario Kart lol) but this one was specifically really informative and made me want to go practice tracks more myself. I'd love to see you do more time trial practice videos. Hell, even on tracks you're good at because I just feel like I gained a lot more insight on this track from watching you pull this off. Also sorry for not subscribing until I already watched about 30 of your videos lmao but I'm here now so we're good

I would love more videos like this, yes ! Especially looking forward to the R&D for the upcoming tracks

This is my favorite video by you because its so much calmer than all of the other ones, its like a breath of fresh air

I love this type of video, where you go really in depth on a single track

This was so enjoyable to watch. Seeing him slowly improve at a certain track for 20 minutes. Would love to see more content like this

I would love to see more of these videos! It helps to see what it takes to improve on the tracks.

really cool video idea, this with an in application video on the end for other tracks would be really cool. i never feel like learning optimal lines but you make it entertaining

I really liked this kind of vid! I mostly play older Mario Karts, so while I enjoy the worldwides/online race videos I can't get that much from them as a player. This kind of video is you learning the track at the same time that we the viewer are, so I ended up enjoying it a lot more!

This is a really cool format of videos, I'd totally watch more of these.

love this style of video tbh, i'm clueless when it comes to methods for practicing tracks and this helped a lot

Love this kind of video a lot!! Getting tips from a pro is one thing, but seeing that pro practicing and pointing out their own weaknesses is extremely insightful too!

Would absolutely love this type of content! It was really fun to watch.

This helps me learn the tracks and optimizations a lot more easily than the shorts ironically.

Yeah i really like this type of video. Your content got me into time trialling so it's fun to see you go through a similar process, it was a very entertaining video throughout!

Please make more of these practice videos! Resources like this are invaluable for learning and improving MK8DX skills, and it's not everyday the average viewer gets to see the practicing process of a more advanced player.

watching Shortcat practice Tick Tock Clock is extremely calming. I love this type of video. it's really chill and vibe-y

I like these type of videos and would enjoy more since it also helps me see how to do a track

I love this!! I'd love more!! I think though it'd have been great to see you test out the practice when you started being happy with the time and more confident to do a multiplayer match afterwards, sort of to see if it made a difference or something. Regardless really entertaining. And I felt like I was learning with you?! so cool. I could see myself watching these to help breakdown word records strats too because your eye catches quick moves a lot better than I do

Love this style of vid, i would love to see more like this! And I think a cool idea would be to play an online match on the map the video is about both before and after practicing to compare and see how you've improved!

I'd love to see more of this style of video! Keep it up! ❤

I struggle with this track too. This is some really good content for helping me learn about how to practice it. Thanks Shortcat!

Just now discovered this video after starting playing the game this March 2024! I do love these videos. So much learning! You are very good at explaining what you're doing and your thought process (I'm binge watching the whole channel). Please, if you see this, tell me there are more that are not on the playlist, or if you intend to record more of this format.

I really like this format! Also very good for improving my game, so really looking forward for more!

Honestly that was an amazing run there. I'd love to see more !

dude i found your channel like a few weeks ago and you were at around 28.8k subs and now you're at 64k. Just shows how good, how bingeable, how entertaining you are and your content is. Keep it up my boy

Such a captivating and enthralling video. I'd love to see you do more!

This type of video was really interesting and actually helped me learn better strats. This video helped me just as much as your F2L tutorials on J Perm

I love the fact that you share your victories, struggles and everything in between. You have no ego and I like your dry sense of humour.

6:07 I rlly like this. Seeing your process for improving tracks is useful to me as a new player.

i feel like for these style videos a more edited down version as opposed to the online videos would be nice, and then as someone else pointed out it would be super cool to see you use the track online at the end, great video!

Keep up your positive energy, these videos always cheer me up

I just enjoy watching you and I also really enjoy your commentary! I also think it is a nice idea so you don't have to come up with a unique challenge for every video, but just doing what you will do anyway

Good video archetype, I'd love to see you do literally every track like this

Would absolutely love to see more of these kinds of vids. Aaaaand if you're practicing this track I guess that leaves me no excuse, I'll have to get a ghost on this track too now lol.

I really enjoy these practice videos and I would think you should make more!

Definitely like this kind of video. its nice to learn how the track works from someone who is far better than I am, especially since you break it down into such a simple methodology.

I love this style of video and would like to see more of your praticing and learning of tracks as a new mario kart player myself

Only true chads play the Sponge tires 🗿 Also this kind of video is very cool ! I would really like other videos with this concept 😌

Love this new format! I feel like us viewers will be learning of and with you! Also bro literally had a nearly perfect race and called it “pretty bad” 💀

I definitely find these videos fun and interesting! Hope to see more of them in the future

you introduced a new concept and the entire idea in the first 15 seconds and youve got me hooked sir

I'd definitely watch this type of content just because I would also learn more of the tracks just by seeing you do it. Plus, it would be more engaging and easy to learn with than by watching the world record multiple times

I really like this type of videos!!! awesome content

it's good to see you taking a break from cubing and doing something that you like

Your channel is growing fast man. 64k subs already 💯

It's something I like to do to hop in the lab to get more familiar with a track I'm not that good at. I did that with Grumble Volcano because the off road infuriated me, and I wanted to learn that cool jump cut, and now I know how to drive it and I do much better on it.

It’s fun watching these sort of vids. I get entertained and I learn!

Yes please do this as a series. Where you vs. yourself on a track along with the world record. Your insight and game sense is very high, as well as the way you dissect the world record gameplay. And revisiting older runs for optomized online play tips😮‍💨⁉️ chefs kiss. you’re a goat shortcat

My kiddos love your videos. They always pile around to watch them!

Love this kinda video, helps me learn the lines to take too.

YES!!! MORE OF THIS!!! I'm down to watch pretty much anything you upload. I should help me with out too with courses I'm not great at. I finally beat the time trials and go the gold wheels. This one was one that gave me pretty hard time. I cannot hit the clock hand shortcuts to save my life!!!

Great video, watching you play this way not only do you learn the tracks but the viewers learn a lot too

this style of video is fun, would love to see this with more tracks

Great video, educational and entertaining. I would love to see more like this

tick tock kock is literally my top 2 favorite tracks. me and the homie play this once at least once every sesh lol thank you for this 🙏🏾

I liked this vid, also it is great to see you come around on my favorite track

I really like this style of video! I'm super casual at MK8D but I found out about 2 shortcuts that I didn't know existed on this map!

This was enjoyable to watch but I'll admit it was one of the later ones I clicked on in your catalogue. But it was a sleeper hit! Tick-Tock Clock is such an interesting course and I think that helped with the video too. Great video though!

Do more of these for sure, I am bad and much prefer watching time trials to playing them lol Edit: I know it’s a hassle, but the video would really feel complete if you raced it at least once online or with bots. Show how much it’s improved, and where you might want to deviate

i dont even own a switch, your videos got recommended to me like a week ago but i enjoy my stay here, keep going my guy :^)

i love this style!!! pls keep it up (:

Good video as always, only thing missing is the sense of stakes or narrative that is inherent to competitive play. Framing your content around goals or progression (hitting x trick consistently or reducing time with each run) could give the video more stickiness to keep more casual viewers engaged like with your main content

I live watching your videos, they are awesome and you deserve your rapid growth, one day I saw that you had like 60k then the next day 61.6k subs, I’ve been watching you since may, keep it up

I love the video concept. Even as someone who doesn’t even own a switch, any time trial or learning is cool to see.

Great video, would love more content like this for sure!

actually really like this kind of video. I think we all kinda do this anyway too, so its cool to learn from your experience!

I like it a lot, it was like a journey learning along with you and not another fun/meme challenge, this was like serious, and at the end I was cheering for you like if you were my friend next to me doing this

honestly you should do this with more tracks especially the dlc and harder tracks, helps you and DEFINITELY helps us viewers

I think this is a neat video idea! It's a nice change of pace and I love the commentary with it For future videos maybe putting video/player credits when you're showing previous world records I think would be a little useful so I know who's playing (and gives credits to the WR players as well)

Hey Shortcat, love this kind of video style and would love to see more practice vids like this 😸

It does still gain about a frame to time a startup boost on startshroom tracks. Glad I'm not the only one doing a series like this anymore!

this is so helpful, i love your content it has been feeding my mario kart hyper fixation

I bet everybody knows how good shortcat is, but just like everybody the maps that aren’t popular people aren’t good at them so just understand how good of a Mario kart player shortcat is

I was missing these already, and since you dont have much videos posted, I cant resort to that in the mean time I need more of your videos bro 😭

Love the concept of these types of videos. Hopefully more are to come 😊

your videos are really good. I don't know what it is, but I find them extremely entertaining

I love this type of video. So entertaining!

Love the style of vid. Please do more!

This was a super entertaining video, please make more like it!!

please make more of these! this video made me better at ttc haha

I do this sort of thing more than I play online to be honest. Love seeing time trial representation.

This reminds me of Troy's old custom track time trial videos! I'd love to see more
