 There's no benefit to firing a blue shell when you're in tenth place.

People seem to think that you generally get the blue shells in 10th-12th place. According to what I've read, this isn't true at all. According to the Gamefaqs guides (which seem quite good, different guides have rather similar stats), you're most likely to get it in 6th place. You can't even get it in 10th place.

Woudl you say someone in 6th place has no use of it?


It depends. Early on in the race while it's still close maybe. But on the final lap things are a bit too spread out for the blue shell to achieve a noticable advantage from 5 spots back.



"Now, a fun game should always be easy to understand - you should be able to take one look at it and know what you have to do straight away. It should be so well constructed that you can tell at a glance what your goal is and, even if you don’t succeed, you’ll blame yourself rather than the game. Moreover, the people standing around watching the game have also got to be able to enjoy it." - Shiggy
