Let's Go, I Gotta Give the People What They WANT. [MARIO KART 8 DELUXE] 

About the coins: if you hold a coin, the other slot is guaranteed to give you something else. So if you won't have a double item coming up, don't burn the coin immediately!

Honestly bro, the reason why I, at least, love these videos, is because of how much fun you look like you're having. The competition and hype that is always prevalent are fantastic too. Everything just seeps into the video, making it a lot of fun. Keep them coming bro, I love this stuff!

-our demands were met- Our prayers were answered! More Mario Kart with Ryu!

Ryu: "Get your banana out of my face". Me: "Yep exactly the content I'm suscribe for"

They are indeed the best videos I've ever seen in my life

Im kinda glad they added the coin. It makes the game more stable, like you are not only getting defensive items in 1st place, which is a good thing because then it makes it easier for other people to take 1st place. Just keep the coin when in 1st and you are getting another item 100%

As I mentioned in your previous video, always hold 1 coin therefore no matter what you will get a banana or a shell of some kind. Also keeping the 1 coin in your item slot is good to keep just in case a boo takes your item so it’ll take your coin instead.

That first grumble race was super impressive, not an easy room with multiple 10k+ players, and you stayed in the lead for ages plus made a great comeback

Ah yes, the game that turns your friends into enemies

When I play Mario Kart online, I discovered that acceleration is one of the best traits to have, because of how often you get stopped from enemy items. Fast recovery really can nullify a ton of it.

I need to get in a lobby with this man would make my day entirely

I'm a simple man. I see Ryu playing some Mario kart, I smash that like button.

Regarding powerups in general. The items it gives you is based on how far away you are from 1st place, not your position on the leaderboard but the actual distance between you and first. You can be in second and get a bullet bill if first is far enough away. This can make fighting in the mid pack crazy if first place is really good.

19:09 That was so trippy, I was like "why was Ryu falling of the edge on purpose?"

12:54 the dude in the back with the sunglasses looks like Barb lol

All the previous videos were like a different game. This one, this is the Mario Kart everyone else is playing. In a split second you go from first to near last and good freakin' luck getting back. Surprisingly to me, this was just as fun to watch as when you dominated. I think that's mainly because you didn't stay in last, and because it wasn't me playing.

The amount of coins you get given when in first is unfair and, generally, not what you want... However the other side to this is that there would be no point otherwise. If you are in first and always got an item to block red shells then you would never be out of first place except for blue shells. It makes for great content when you get knocked down to 8th or below and you make the comebacks we saw in this Mario Kart Carnage we saw today. Best one so far. "This is not a drill!" Love your reaction to that stage!

>plays as donkey kong >"GET YER BANANA OUT OF MY FACE!"

Coins are a 40% chance from item blocks in 1st. I like that they add risk for throwing away items, and reward for 2x boxes. But I think they're maybe OP? I mean the coin item gets you 2 coins, for an about 1% speed boost, and I see lots of far runaways in lobbies, sometimes me being that runaway. I'd honestly add a Coin Bag in low spots that gets you to max coins, since being far back sucks because you get hit a lot and have no coins, and higher spots steal track coins.

This video really sums up my time playing Mario Kart. A bunch of bad Luck with coins and getting spanked with shells,Stars and running in bannanas while blind

These videos are the best... the best videos I've ever seen in my entire life. Please, please make more

Recently got Mario Kart 8 Deluxe thanks to Ryu's videos and it Brings back good memories from the Wii! Thank you Ryu

I’ve never played this game, but I love watching you play it. It seems that the coins are just a place holder for someone in 1st place because there’s nothing else they can give you without increasing your less more. It’s be fun to see power ups made for people in first place. Like the piranha plant that bites people coming up behind you or something. The people in the back get a blue shell that’s OP.

@Ryukahr, some advice. 9 out of 10 times, you will get a coin and another item when you pick up a double box when in 1st place. The trick is to look at your coin as a usable item instead of a throw away. Hold on to your coin as long as you can. If you haven't gotten another item and you are about to be hit, use it right before you get hit, so you'll loose 3 coins, but immediately gain 2 back. This helps you accelerate back up to full speed quicker once you finish spinning out than if you use it after you finish spinning out or just don't use it. Additionally, if you have a coin already and are coming up to an item box line that only has singles, or you can not get a double, you are nearly always guarenteed a different item, so don't just use the coin to have no item.

straightup, watching people who are good at Mario Kart play Mario Kart is one of my favorite things on RU-vid. :)

I'm one of those that are loving these MK8 videos. Part of it for me is I can tell he's having a great time, which is awesome to watch, but it's also perversely fun to watch someone get Mario Kart'd. Hate when it happens to me though. Lol.

The blue shell does help the person in the back of the pack who gets it because it has a chance to hit everybody on the way and because it extends the game.

These videos are the best I've ever seen in my entire life, please make more

Mario kart is relentless. I got so mad sometimes droping from first the fully 2 laps and then to last spot in seconds. Seeing happening to ryukar makes my heart at ease haha

Coins are good, I think they are a good item to balance out having a massive lead, as well I like the slight speed boost you get if you gather 10 coins. I think they are a good item in the game and balance things out really well

These mario races can be pretty epic

Ryu's Super Mario Kart 8 videos are the only thing that gives me comfort since Super Mario Bros 35 was discontinued.

17:15 is one of the funniest Ryu faces to me.

I literally binge watched every single ryukart episode on your channels yesterday (including the live streams); Now I need more!

7:00 “SlowBurn went all the way to tenth place! Hahaha!” 10th place is still 2nd place, if you’re counting in binary.

1:30 is pure joy

I find such joy in watching these Mario kart videos, I’m always so invested!

I completely lose myself in these Mario Kart videos. I start them, they end, and I'm like, "how was that 20 minutes?"

feels like if they can program it so 1st place doesn't get speed boost items and (obviously) the blue shell, they could also program it so coins don't come out of the box as often if you have 10 coins already. then again, when getting hit and losing the coins, it can be good to have one in the item slot to help get back up to speed. Good questions...

Dude your face when you get grumble volcano is priceless 👍

When you're in the mood but bae isn't... Bae: 1:57

Ryu! Make sure whenever you have a coin and an empty item slot, that you keep the coin while driving through an itembox! This way you’re guaranteed an actual item, because the game won’t allow you to hold two coins at once.

I cannot explain why I love these. Please keep making them.

An ongoing RyuKart series? Yes.

That guy in the blue shirt was me and I love the comment that ryu said lol it made my day. At 9:45

I challenge you to play on a 200cc tournament (also end in first place at least once). Love mario kart and love your videos!

I feel that the person in first should be getting items to dodge the blue shell as much as the people in the back get the blue shells. Like, in addition to coins and banana peels, the person in first should also be getting boost shrooms and super horns at the same rate as they get coins and banana peels.

18:36 the adult Nintendo title we always wanted

Someone else: Who is the owner of donkey Kong? Me: ryu

1 year later, i still want more of these Ryu.

I subscribed to your ryu channel for the Mario karts so happy to see you do more :) already subscribed to your other channel. Thanks for all the great content across channels!

Your Mario Kart videos, are the ones i have rewatched the most

Never stop uploading mario kart. This should be ur main series imo

IMPORTANT MK INFO FOR RYU: You complain a lot about getting too many COINS. To avoid this, hold on to the coin until the next itembox. The game will NEVER give you a second coin, if you're already holding one. That way you'll never end up getting several coins in a row, to secure your position on first place! Really awesome video!!!! By far my favourite gameplay from you! Together with your older Mario Kart Monday episodes!

This need to be a full continous series of videos!! I love this game

keep these coming please, I can live with one a week, just seeing you have fun times is epic

Played some mario kart again last week because of your videos, and I got grumble volcano not once but TWICE. One of the times even from a random pick

That Blooper was the most effective I've ever seen it be...

I’m waiting for some massive long streams of this! Bring it!

In the words of DASHIE.... "Donkey Kong Bitch-Ass" (insert Dashie face)😂😂😂

Keep doing the MarioKart vids! Love them!

These videos are pretty great. Makes me want to get back into MK Online.

These are my favorite Ryu videos, and maybe my favorite RU-vid videos

I love these videos! They've become my new favorite Ryu videos!!! More please!

You did a little wheelie at 13:38

honestly wasn't into the Mario kart videos then I actually watched one and realized they were hype af

Never use the coin if you're about to collect only one item box because it prevents you from getting another coin. You cant have two coins at the same time

you were racing wasabi tea. that guys a pretty constant streamer on twitch. you beat him some. good job!

Hell yeah, I love these Mario Kart videos

These are one of the best vids I've ever watched in a long time. Thank you Ryu :)

Thank you for giving the people what they want!! My hub and I love watching you play Mario Kart!

The coins are essential for balancing the game. But they do come up a lot when you’re in first.

Still surprises me to hear Ryu cuss. Old school Ryu has returneth!

You get coins in the lead because you play defensively and what you get is also based on what others have at the time. If you use red shells and stuff more offensively, you'll get them more often.

I know this video is kinda old, but man I love your Mario kart content. Hardest I’ve laughed in a long time

This is the best video series I’ve ever seen keep doing them

The star you stole with boo was a star from the dk on the wiggler you can see him holding it before he lost it at 16:37

When you are in first place you only get coins, bananas and green shells.... It is super rare to get anything else while in first place. The items are not as "random" as they should be!

I think a fair compromise with the coin would be to have it only spawn when you don't have 10 coins. That would keep it from being *completely* useless, provide some incentive to be as clean as possible (collect 10 coins, try to avoid getting hit, etc) and still be around to not give 1st place defensive items every time. If 1st place always had a banana peel, green shell or otherwise it'd be that much harder to overtake someone in 1st. That coin you got in 2nd place though is not cool.

These videos are the best. The best videos I've ever seen in my entire life. Please, please, make more.

these are the best videos I've ever seen in my entire life. please, please make more

Seeing you get karted as hard as I get karted felt very gratifying, ngl. Sometimes even the king has a race fighting for 8th place.

Yes!! We need more mario kart! Thanks for this awesome stuff!

Love the Mario Kart vids!!

Love to see u play Mario kart 8 u be killing it love your content everyday your on streaming much love my friend ryu

Exactly what I needed today❤

Yes, these videos are the best videos I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Don’t stop please

I'm literally so hype for these videos. I love mk8d

There should be a thing in this game where once you have the max amount of coins, you can't get it in ANY slot until you lose one.

You know what I want to see, Ryukhar plays....Diddy Kong Racing

Grumble Volcano giveth, Grumble Volcano taketh.

Yoooooo more Mario Kart! Hope you race with viewers one day. Also try battle mode!

Love the Mario Kart content man

I am irrationally happy about these videos, please sustain my joy Ryu

love that Cleveland Browns themed donkey kong hat!

“Wearin the hat dude, wearin the hat” and the shirt

Grumble Volcano at the start? Can't ask anything better yo

Never go for first place at start. You almost never finish with it. I find 2-4 the sweet spot for items to take first

Ryu playing Mario Kart is so enjoyable.

When Ryu gets quiet... You know it's serious! 😂
