Ironically, Red Shells are a menace during a race. It's a shame that you don't see them that often in a battle.

Outside of the Triple Shells, Triple Bananas, and Piranha Plant, however, a frontal assault by a Red Shell can be nasty.

Boomerangs and Fire Flowers are still more vicious than Red Shells.

The reasoning for that is the VR difference. You probably had much less VR than your opponent.

That happens too much imo.
Not counting when the second gets triple red shells, there is nothing you can do to counter it.

I was in first with a Super Horn. Someone uses Lightning and I lost my Super Horn. Guess what came RIGHT AFTER I lost the Super Horn? A Blue Shell, of course!

I got a bullet in 2nd, and I could see the person in front of me. :o It got shocked out though.

Just as a reminder, my custom tournament begins this Friday at 1:00 PM ET, and lasts until 8/14 at 11:00 PM ET. I did make a small change to the rules, however.

I thought it was because of my golden steering wheel. But, that makes sense too.
