Ok, so I’ve won the Knight League, I’ve won the Mini-Prix against S-tier opponents, I have won on every track, except Mute City I.
I simply can’t win any race at Mute City I. I tried everything, changed strategy, I tried Team Battle, I tried to race Mute City while everyone else is in a Grand Prix.
I simply can’t win Mute City.
And I’m looking forward to King League. The carnage at Death Wind II will be legendary.
Awesome thanks for the detailed reply! Yeah when looking at the leaderboard I did see a lot of gooses which I why I chose it. FWIW I have been doing better with the goose than the stingray, but haven’t gotten top 10 yet.
Was going to ask if you used d-pad or stick so thanks for touching on that! I was using d-pad on the joy-cons which seemed nice but the d-pad on the pro controller seems shitty. I have the SNES switch controller so maybe I’ll try that today.
Something fishy is going on: I tried the Stingray. No preparation, no practice, just straight into a Mute City race. I won with a lead of 2 second on the first try. I have not driven the Stingray since 30 years. I drove exactly like in practice mode on the SNES.
I don’t understand this. I constantly see people struggling to keep up with the Golden Fox in the Stingray. The Stingray should just woosh by the Golden Fox without boost. So I guess they balanced the cars in a different way, I guess it has to do with boost and power management.
I’m also using the pro controller. It would definitely be interesting how the SNES controller behaves. When playing old F-Zero with the pro controller’s stick, the handling is exactly like it should be.
