Mario vs. Luigi Tour: Will Team Luigi ever have a chance to win?
W1 status: 1st place with room to improve.
Interesting fact; even though Gold Petey is in Team Luigi for the inforgraphic this year and has always been on Team Luigi in the past MvLs; this year Gold Petey is on Team Mario for some reasonMaybe this could relate to what they have planned or a simple mistake, who knows?
>>2056954I wish they would add a Gold Luigi with the same skill as Gold Mario to make token collecting more fair.
Did you get the waluigi set?
>>2061516yes>>2056453Result: 1st place
Buffs for the Night Tour and some interesting stuff about the shop text (or lack thereof) for Pipe Tour and beyond
>>2062514Thanks for the news. I was tracking buffs on the Titan karts (>>2040813), and I am already covered at Lv8 for those buffed Rome tracks. Two of them are in ranked next tour.Rome 2N (ACR): Gold Comet (Lv8/3c), Gold Warrior Wagon (Lv8/3c), + Desert Tiny Titan (Lv8/4c)Rome 2R (W1 ranked): Moo Moo Offroader (Lv8/4c), Spicy Zucchini (Lv8/2c)Rome 2T (W2 ranked): Black B Dasher Mk 2 (Lv8/4c), Dry Bones Dasher (Lv8/3c), Flaming Speeder (Lv8/4c), + Desert Tiny Titan (Lv8/4c)Rome 2R/T (ACR): Hot Pot Hot Rod (Lv8/1c) [Tiny Titan (Lv1/0c) might be better?]
>>2061787W2 status: 1st place so far.>>2043827I am still resisting the temptation to level up Gold Knight Luigi (Lv6/2c) for Luigi Raceway. If I am passed, I think I will try Gold Mario (Lv8/4c) first before spending tickets. Goomba Mii (Lv8/4c) has better base points, but is not high scoring for that track.
>>2056446Luigi can still win
>>2067239Only been playing for a little more than a year, but Team Luigi gets crushed every single time, isn't it?
>>2067927Team Luigi has never won this team rally or even managed to be in the lead for a single day across all the times this team rally has happened, even the pre-loop one in 2022
did you get gold luigi?
>>2070465yes>>2066120Result: 2nd place. I got passed by a lurker in the final hours while I was asleep.
>>2070704Night Tour W1 status: 1st place so far.
>>2074329 >>1983384 (me)Update: I finally got Gold Chuck today, which completes my MKT driver collection.(pic) is the current status all of my coinboxers. I have only 6 karts remaining to collect and 14 gliders, 11 of which are hanafudas.
>>20752356 of the 12 hanafudas are no longer obtainable thanks to the loop; just take note
did you get the fishbone suit?
There’s going to be a 2-hour long maint at the start of Pipe Tour + forced version update; take note
>>2078829yes>>2074329Result: 1st place.>>2078924I am curious about this seemingly major update, and if it has any impact to the game.
>>2079369Note that because of the imminent update; Koopa can’t get any info on it (or the buffs for Pipeline next tour) until the update is actually available to download
Servers appear to be down (or is it just me?)
>>2084464It's online now for me (USA east).
>>2084476Thanks. Clearing the cache did the trick.
>>2079369W2 update: 1st place so far.
I might finally beat the game, anons. It only took me 4 years. Been stuck in upper 90s-tier limbo for a while. I started this tour at tier 97 and had a bunch of tickets saved up, so I just dumped as many as I could into my ranked drivers/karts/gliders.
>>2090225I'm also rooting for cathbel, they pulled a come back and eked out Steve to get that 3rd place slot.
Did you get gold bones?
>>2090225I did it, anons!In other news, steve was able to reclaim 3rd.
>>2090755Yes; good week>>2090777Also grats!
the end is near
Ruby sales will end soon; it’s likely that the game will continue to Anniversary Tour and then EOS after that
EOS after Anniversary Tour confirmed
>no plans for offline versionNo of course, wouldn't want it to get in the way of your 80 dollarino game.
Might as well post it here as well; the full plans from now until EOS EOS happens once Anniversary Tour endsAll purchases have ended You get GP in Pipe and Sunshine Tours if you had it when the maint started at the end of Night Tour Everyone gets GP for free from Vacation Tour until EOS Login bonuses and new event challenge cards added in every tour until EOS to make progression easierPermanent discounts in the spotlight shop and mii shopAfter EOS; you can view past tour stats in the game until 13 January 2027 (less than 4 months later; wtf)ACRs are viewable on the ACR website until September 2027Upcoming MKT Report about the game’s entire history will be released on twitter sometime soonNo offline version; this is it once the Anniversary Tour ends and the game closes, everything becomes lost
>>2090755yes>>2085716Result: 1st place>>2091055It's sad, but it's time. Let's go and spend all those tickets and rubies!>>2075235 (me)>>2078633It would be nice if they made all drivers, karts, and gliders available for purchase before EOS.
>Woke up to email saying my gold pass has been cancelledsad news
>>2091327surely fans will make a offline version right?
>>2091904Agreed; that sounds like a great idea.
>EOS before Pokemon MastersGodspeed.Fuck the annoying ass Mii Suitsand fuck the RNG Multiplayer Mode
is it worth playing before EOS?
>>2090777>Finally get to max tierThe next day>We're shutting down the game>>2090842Thanks
rip tour...
>>2091904it would be awesome if they could, perhaps they can even improve on it. I know Plants Vs Zombies 2 has several improved versions even while it still exists originally, I especially love Replanted for the way it removes the gacha shit while balancing the content and even adding brand new content that fits the game.
>>2092899It's a fantastic game if you already have the shit from the gacha, but if you're considering starting it now it's basically not worth bothering. the game is built heavily around gacha powercreep and it feels bad to be throwing single items out when opponents get triple items with a chance of a jackpot spam. I have been playing this game daily in bed while half asleep in the morning for many years, so I'll miss it, but it takes a long time to get to a place where you actually have enough of the gacha pulls to stop being forced to suck.
I'm going to miss didyougetanon more than the game.I hope Nintendo does something more with the general control scheme in the future but I really doubt it
>>2092899Just for fun. You could play multiplayer. Try to get some S+(+) ranked opponents. Because there's rng involved, you might win and mess up their Kart Pro run. Also, losing to an E ranked player dings your score harder.
Fthis game was special to me for years. it was even part of my gaming connection to family members. I don't have the time to play like I used to, but I still have to get soaring jack and at least I'll have a short chance to do so right before the end.
I’m still looking at my coverage for the tracks in the tour and thinking about investments and future ranked tracks and ACRs before realizing that it doesn’t really matter anymore…
Song to get over the サ終:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVXhyFPDClw>>2092710>plays Mario Kart gacha>complains about RNG
>>2093408ACR never mattered at all from the beginning. :)
We don't even get an offline version? Like cmon man
>>2093166SameCrazy part is I just deleted it like 2 days ago to conserve space but now I gotta redownload it again. I wanna play as much as I can before it's over
>>2093070My watch is ending soon, it seems. It was fun while it lasted. this game became part of my daily routine since the pandemic started in early 2020, around the time they started adding the special pipes, crazy, fun times; grinding every single track for its exp and making my own trackers for coverage, getting my top 1000 badges and my occasional top 100. wish I had the time to at least try going for a top 10 badge earlier in the loops just for completionist sake, but now there's really not a point anymore
Crazy how many of the game’s tracks have already been lost without us even knowing it Back in January I still thought i’d be able to play 3DS Rainbow Road again “next January” but….It’s gone (and the BCP version isn’t exactly the same thing)
>>2091569W1 status: 1st place so far.>>2095785Agreed. I will also miss Ninja Hideaway and Merry Mountain.
>>2096972 (me)Spending my level tickets before EOS:1. Drivers: Pink Mii gives ranked coverage in the Vacation Tour for Peach Circuit R/T. Gold Luigi Knight and Gold Koopa Freerunning join my final list of Lv8 coinboxers (>>2075235) and will have some limited ACR usage.2. Karts: These are just some pretty karts that I always liked and already had at Lv6. Carrot Kart and Cact-X have unlocked tracks this tour. Holiday Speeder is useful for the Sundae Tour along with some upcoming city tracks.3. Gliders: These were gliders that I used a lot as a new player up to Lv6 and got passed by newer gliders. Star-Spangled Gilder unlocks Kalimari 2R this tour. Daisy Glider is useful mainly for the Sundae Tour.I still have enough level tickets to take any Lv1 item to Lv8 for any remaining ACR track gaps. I'm saving cap tickets for a few items that still need to be quad capped for ranked.
Spending advice:Purchase new and level up Miis with rubies in the Mii Shop for the best deal. For non-Mii drivers, karts, and gliders: buying level tickets in Daily Selects is still the best deal.
I feel bad for the people who will win ranked on the 2nd week of the Anniversary Tour and reach Tier 80 and get the Gold Mii suit with less than an hour to enjoy it before EOS.
or anyone on the verge of hitting milestones who lose ranked and just miss hitting themor anyone who ends the game by dropping out of level 99 forever
Items that are last obtainable in the Pipe Tour
The end is near, but for the time being, did you get the wiggler set?
>>2102924yes>>2096972Result: 1st place.
>>2103284W2 status: 1st place so far.
>>2107781 (me)EOS spending: I am playing a LOT of Coin Rush to convert rubies to coins to buy cap and level tickets. There are only 18 items (13 gliders / 5 karts) that I don't have, of which only 6 (2 gliders / 4 karts) are available before EOS (Reference: pic). So 6 * 70 = 420 rubies. Even if I level up a Mii, I can only buy it 3 times from the shop (3 * 70 = 210). So it makes no sense to keep more than 1000 rubies anymore, especially if the game keeps being generous.My last 6 items to buy: Fast Frank (Sunshine, Summer, Anniv.), Paintster (Vacation, Summer), Cheep Snorkel (Vacation), Frosty Bells (Sundae), Piranha Plant Hanafuda (Summer), Soaring Jack (Anniv.). I only missed the Goo Goo Pink to possibly have all the karts. For all the gliders, I missed the Jolly Bells and 10 Hanafudas (includes the 6 permanently unavailable).
Today I finally learned that there is a ramp on the inside track after the starting line in Kalimari Desert. Thanks multiplayer friends.I wonder what else I missed on all the tracks that are already gone.
Last chance of getting the wiggler set, did you get it?
Less than 1 hour until Piranha Plant Pipeline disappears forever…
Pipeline is dead; rip
>>2112001yes>>2107781result: 1st place
Interesting, the mkt collection dev confirms there's an actual offline version of the game made by fans in the works
>>2112317W1 status: 1st place so far; tough competition.
Did you get the yellow yoshi set?
>>2123917yes>>2116712Result: 1st place. Fighting off dragons.
>>2124208W2 status: 1st place so far. Should be an easy week.3 coinbox frenzies + single coinboxes on Daisy Circuit T for the 75k run.
EOS level+cap ticket / ruby spending:1. Fast Frank: just collecting karts (>>2107793(me))2. Rosa Swimwear: Lv8/3c -> Lv8/4c; Rosa Swim has a lot of top shelf tracks this tour and is featured next tour. I'm a Rosa fan and trying to quad at least the 3cap Rosas before EOS. Chef and Fire remain. I'm holding back in case I need to quad any more Miis or coinboxers (>>2075235) for ranked. Karts and gliders are already Lv8/4c covered for ranked until EOS.3. Dry Bones Dasher: This is a great small agile kart for Battle Course 1, which has 2 more tours after this one. Lv8/3c->4c.4. Armored Rider: An old favorite kart for me, sitting at Lv6/2c forever. Needed Lv8 ACR coverage for Sydney Sprint T.5. Dragon Wings: Needed Lv8 ACR coverage for Lakeside Park R. Lv6/1c -> Lv8/1c.
did you get gold koopa?
>>2131563yes>>2128003Result: 1st place.
>S-Rank achievedNeat. I had been wondering: Are S+1, S+2,... the consecutive ranks?
>>2132168Yes, it goes all the way up to S+9.The S+n ranks were originally available to paid Gold Pass users only, but starting today all players have free Gold Pass.
>>2131771W1 status: 1st place so far.
>>2135166 (me)Strong ACR start, but I know I'll never get Top 100 before EOS. Skill issue = I can't manual drift.Top 1000 is good enough. Top 100 requires over 2.6 million; my max is 2.4m, typical is 2.25m.
EOS spending:1. Rosa Chef Lv8/3c->Lv8/4c: Lots of ACR tracks this tour (Paris 2N, Paris 2R/T) and two ranked tracks next week, though both are blocked by Miis. She might be better than my shell Miis for Squeaky Clean Sprint R.2. Dry Bowser Mii Lv1/1c->Lv8/1c: Lv8 HE ACR coverage for Athens Dash 2R. I can't believe I did this, but there's no reason to save level tickets anymore.3. Paintster (new): collecting karts. This tour is also the last chance to get Cheep Snorkel.4. Gold Warrior Wagon Lv8/3c->Lv8/4c: ACR 8/4 coverage for Athens Dash R.5. Sweet Ride Lv8/2c->Lv8/4c: An old favorite kart that overlaps a lot with Rosa Chef. ACR 8/4 coverage for Bangkok Rush T.This tour is my first where all tracks have Lv8/4c gliders, so it's nice to finally be saving glider cap tickets.
Did you get the green birdo set?
>>2138588yes>>2135166Result: 1st place.
>Tour Challenges 2: Driver with a ribbon uses a bomb.OK, usually there is an obvious choice in ranked. Daisy Swimwear on Squeaky Clean Sprint R?>Multiple runs. Bananas, shells, coins. Anything but a bomb.Red Birdo on Peach Circuit R/T?>Multiple runs. Bananas, shells, coins, eggs. NOPE!Red Birdo on Bangkok 2R/T?>NOPE! HAHAHAHA!FUCK I HATE THIS GAME. SO READY FOR IT TO END!
I'm sad anons. I don't want it to end. MKT got me through the covid lockdowns. It's been my go-to when I have to wait and have time to kill. I even play when I don't have time to kill and could be doing other things. I promise I'll spend more money in the shop if they don't eos it. I guess I'm now in the bargaining stage...
>>2138743>Daisy Swimwear on Squeaky Clean Sprint R?Yeah, my Daisy Swimwear is higher level than the 2 Mii options I have, so I'm just going to max her out even though I probably won't use her again.
>>2138743 (me)Rosalina Chef on Mushroom Bridge R/T (Pauline Cup) wins the prize.Thanks for the level up? (>>2136251)Never noticed the ribbon on her belt before.I had to look up in the wiki who has ribbons:https://www.mariowiki.com/List_of_drivers_in_Mario_Kart_Tour
mario
>>2138736W2 status: 1st place so far.>>2139252Same. I'm hoping Nintendo revisits the MKT concept in a few years after MKW fades away.
>>2141426wahoo
Did you get blockhead?
>>2147427yes>>2142882Result: 1st place.
>>2139252Why would anyone be sad about this ending?We're finally going to be set free.
This might be the highest ACR rank I’ve gotten so far…. Shame it’s so near to the end
>>2147640W1 status: 1st place so far, but when the Top 100 player wakes up I am dead.
>>2150407I will also be glad to be free of the daily MKT grind!I have shifted to Wordle for a quick daily endorphin fix.Like MKT, it's free with badges and fun stats. But it take a LOT less time!
