How thoughtful of Troy to dedicate the very bottom left corner of the screen for NMeade territory.

I was just thinking about how nice it would be to have another video with NMeade, and Troy delivers!

I’ve missed seeing NMeade consistently on the channel on a weekly basis. Hope you’re doing well, my fella!

look at those poor item roulettes, reduced to a shell of their former glory...

Believe me i adore flounderfest but just some feedback: there was somethin special about seeing you two team up, hope to see more!

I love that you guys are still doing some FlounderFest things from time to time. These videos really are highlights of KZfaq.

Call it the Super cut. it's slightly less extreme than ultra, but still better than the standard cut

Instead of baby-ultra, perhaps just B.U shortcut, or Bultra shortcut? Also really loved the competitive you two played - more of that please!!😃

If "baby ultra cut" is too long, I say we just call it the "baby cut". Failing that, call it John.

Great idea to show NMeade's score. Thank you for providing those videos, Troy. Keep going!

I miss this content so much I had a big smile on my face the entire time

I always laugh every time NMeade appears saying “How’s it going” 🤣

This looks very fun! I’m glad you are still playing Mario Kart because it has to be one of the best games ever! 😀

0:15 I almost choked on my chips

I really enjoy when you both work together in competitive 6 team races

0:16 i love that snippet intro

14:20 “how the turns have tabled” 😂💀

Always happy to see Nmeade, the best duo in mario kart Wii!

Empex is always one step ahead of the competition, a truly determined tryhard. 😆

FLOUNDERFEST IS BACK! How I’ve missed this.

This is a certified hood classic

Flounderfest is back WHOOOOOOOP

it's always fun to see you guys go head to head but i want to see you guys team up more!

Shortcut: Saves time. Totally game legal. Does not skip key checkpoints. Ultra shortcut: Cuts a large portion off the track. Deos skip key checkpoints. I propose: Super shortcut: Basically an ultra, but without skipping key checkpoints. À la BC3 and Dry Dry Ruins.

If running blue shells only can't get you first, I'm sure it can get someone else first! Run you on blue shells 2nd to 11th and 12th is golden mushroom to ensure you don't camp in the back, no mods on Nmeade's side. Your goal is to get him to 1st place on every race.

Shell kart wii seems interesting. Also, the Bc3 ultra shall be called the “Mega shortcut”

you've GOTTA keep nick as your nemesis! it's cool to team up every once in a while, but the fans are all about the 1v1s! (at least this fan is)

30:14 ooooooh troy almost said a very bad word

Ok this is actually really cool. I thought the first and second place shells would be op but if you’re in 3rd or below there’s no protection or real way to catch up

32:59: I am thoroughly in Troy - NMeade 2022

Showing the current place of your mate in the corner is an awesome addition. It's always exciting to anticipate the other one to suddenly appear on your screen.

Imagine getting hammered and Blue Shelled left right and center, now that's a reality! :D

this is such an interesting concept and i love this flounderfest thing its just 2 guys having fun lmao

Bring back the competition! So good to see it agaib

Flounderfest was one of Troy’s special events I enjoy watching, and NMeade is awesome and funny.

14:19 " How the turns have tabled " LMAO I'm surprised you didn't notice😅😅😅😅

I absolutely LOVE the way you intro Nicolas now, the snap of *"How's it going"* just slays me 🤣

many of these item challenges require you to either front run or finish in the bottom 3. the first 10-20 seconds of the race will make or break it. here’s an idea that will discourage you from frontrunning but reward you for being in the back. % means the chance you will pull that item: 1st-4th: 50% single banana, 50% single green shell 5th-8th: 40% POW, 40% single mushroom, 20% mega mushroom 9th-12th: 30% bullet, 30% star, 30% golden mushroom, 10% shock try using a slower vehicle than a flame runner, maybe magikruiser, quacker, or another B or C tier vehicle. that way it’s not easy to just front run the whole race despite only pulling single bananas and greens.

NICHOLAS! The blueberry pie legend is back

“The Troy” is the corner shortcut on Delfino Square right before the ending and now the BC3 Cut is called the “Typical NMeade” amazing

That one race at Koopa Cape was totally heart stopping for me my eyes were glued and my heart dropped for whoever won that! Watched the rest of the video GGs Troy! :D

This just made me think about something kinda crazy, what if the only item everyone could get were bananas and multiple bananas, the track would be so trapped

NMeade’s little exclamations and sound effects always get me lmao

I want you to team up to get a win with the Prowler in a worldwide.

Ooh an interesting concept for a video!! I hope you and Nick are doing fabulous! 5:49 lmao it’s nice that you’re putting Nick’s POV in the video for funny moments like that

"How the turns have tables" -Troy 2022

Teammates, but I'd love to see Nick also FlounderHack alongside you.

so happy to see this back

Both are stellar options but I vote for team domination by the two legends

16:01 those three shrooms were floating XD

5:05 this will definitely be content for the shorts

Yessss!!! new flaunderfest episodes! (I always watch both yours and Nick's)

Crazy episode, honestly the level of player skill was very enjoyable this race. Esp. Yeezus with the clean strikes towards troy haha

This is a shell-tified hood classic

I like the competition between you two more tbh, but I also very much enjoyed your team-up competitive video a few weeks ago. Honestly, do what you prefer, because it's all great

The BC3 Ultra Cut could be called the "Expert Cut" because it is harder than the regular shortcut.

Aye I enjoy these so much!! Thank you!

Crazy

21:25 that green shell was like a magnet. Good thing you had the triple reds or that would've been really bad... Edit: Wait he just got blued like 2 seconds before that... nvm some bullshittery is going on. He shouldn't have been able to have any items, much less throw a perfect green while still recovering

The new name for the BC3 Ultra can be BaBy3 ultra.

Hi Troy! I really appreciate having Nick's placement in the bottom left corner. It's great being able to compare your progress so easily!

I love the little nmeade counter lol

Yeezus killed me with the Kanye Mii

20:46 a fib

16:15 another AUUUUUUUGH

Ok.. now I get it,Troy must be joining my games and using this mod.

You should call it the Great cut because its like pokeballs. You go the great ball and the ultra ball. lol

SUPER! SUPER SHORTCUT!

This feels like a literal tank mode: slow with benefits (shells for mines, blues for missiles, and mushrooms for, I guess, downhills), will do damage despite the disadvantage

So good having a little clip of Nmeade’s pov would love to see that more great vid!

You may think that shells only is extremely broken, but when you fall behind it's impossible to get any power items like the bullet and stars

Idea for this mod Place 9-12 shock Place 2-8 POW Block Place 1 Blooper Might be more funny if you could ignore the cooldowns on theese in a way included in a custom lobby

I looooove the videos where you two go against each other!! Really miss watching flounderfest every monday!

It would be cool to see lounge 2v2 style videos where you and Nick are on a team and all 12 players have the same mod activated.

Honestly a W idea, great to see the Flounder Fest back in at least some sense ;)

Great video as always! A fun idea that might be cool would be a mod where one player getting an item box gives every player on the track that item.

Here's horrible idea: 1 lap races where every item for everyone is a blue shell.

Bring flounderfest back full time!!

Another video of you guys playing competitively would be dope!

I always love your videos. Also when i had mkw my brother and me thought it was literally impossible to die in coconut mall but our cousin somehow found a way to do that by accedent and i have a question, the 400cc tournee was that a mod you could get or just something different? im really enjoying that series.

You should try only single, triple, and golden mushrooms, also glad to see nmeade back!

bro keep up the good work your the Mario kart king!!!

Flounderfest Extra!

i love every vid with nick in them!

Troy i have a good idea for you, next time when you do the event again, triple mushroom in 1st, golden mushroom in 2nd, and bullet bill from 3rd till 12th.

Cool vid

Teammates next teammates next!!

On paper it sounded like Troy had this in the bag. But man it’s way harder implemented

Wow Troy must be playing loads of TF2 the way he snipes his way through the entire Video.

Video idea: “every item I get is AUTOMATICALLY SPAMMED??”

Super shortcut might a good name for the bc3 cut.

It shouldn’t give a mushroom in first. That’s kinda OP. It should be a single green when you already have triples.

I think it's more fun to do a mix of teaming and facing each other with Troy doing stupid hacks that may not even help him :) (Nick can stay on vanilla)

The “ultra” cut could be changed to the Lava Cut.

troy u have changed so much you were a part of my child hood ❤️

I think normal item rain but every item box is a shock for all players would be fun. It’d be nonstop shocks and the only way to avoid shocks would be power items on the ground, mostly stars

OOOOOOH

for these item mods, you should try 50/50 mega TC/regular TC

Call the BC3 shortcut the great cut, you know, like in pokemon the ultra ball worse version being the great ball XD

Glad to see nmeade in another video
