Those of us who have joined the Mario Kart World Tour trend are already enjoying the latest Nintendo game on mobile. We get stars, we run through different circuits of all the franchises to date and we collect characters and vehicles. But we also suffer shell attacks. The damn shells. Useful when in your hand, but a pain that can make you go from first to last position in an instant. Do you know how to avoid them?
There are formulas to avoid the two main types of shells in Mario Kart World Tour. That is, the green ones and the red ones There is no way to get rid of the blue ones. You'll already know that the green ones shoot straight ahead, bouncing off walls and track edges quite randomly. However, the red shells chase the nearest rival. It doesn't matter if there are curves or jumps. If it is relatively close, the red shell continues its journey until it hits the enemy. In both cases, the character, be it an opponent or ourselves, will be stopped in the race, losing the coins that we have been collecting. So not only do we lose precious time and an advantage over the other runners, but we say goodbye to our prizes.
Worst of all, both the green and red shells can be shot forwards, hitting our vehicles or those of the enemies from behind, or backwards, colliding head-on with themThe good thing is that there are ways to avoid it in Mario Kart World Tour, although they are more limited than in the rest of the games in the franchise.
With other shells and bananas
The main key is to collect other objects. That is, by going through the boxes of powerups or attacks. Of course, not everything that comes out of these boxes is worth protecting us. Specifically, we need a green shell, a red shell, a blue shell, a Browser shell or a banana.
If we have any of these objects selected and ready to shoot, they will be placed behind our car. That is, as if it were a trailer Well, it's not just a visual indication so we know what we can throw, it's also protection for attacks from behind. Or what is the same, that if they attack us with a shell from behind we will not suffer any damage.No stop, no detour, no running out of coins.
Of course, remember that the shells can also reach us ahead. Faced with this situation, it is better that you have the ability to turn and escape from its trajectory. And it is that there is no possibility of escaping from a frontal collision.
Also, don't forget that you can crash into other racers who have their shells as a trailer. Watch out for curves and junctions If you eat a shell, even if it's paid to the ass of a car, it will also have the same effect as if it had been thrown.
Transforming you
There are a couple of really useful powerups against attacks. The first is Become the Bullet, which usually comes out to players who have finished eighth during the race. Transforming into this character makes you immune to all attacks for a few seconds.
The other option is to get a mushroom and become a much bigger character. That way you won't be immune, but when you get hit by a shell, whatever color it is, you'll just shrink and go back to your normal state. Without stops or loss of coins.
Finally there is the super power of Peach One of its star characteristics is being able to protect itself with a heart. For a few seconds you will be completely immune to any attack. Use this character and pray for this power to feel safe.
With fury
There is one last way to be protected from shells and any problems in the circuit. It is the rage mode which, thanks to its momentary invincibility, allows us to throw unlimited objects and survive any attack for a few seconds.But to do so, it has to coincide that you get three identical objects in a box.
