They don't help the 9th placed racer (you never see second or third place getting one) and with only ONE single item having the ability to block them, they're totally cheap. Other than that, the game is fantastic. |
You're wrong on every account here, as the Blue Shell only shows up 0-2 times a race, clearly do serve a purpose which is punishing 1st who'll otherwise be difficult to hit,

Why the hell should we punish SKILL? See, that's my problem. If someone plays the game and puts in the work to be the best racer they can be, that skill should be REWARDED, not punished. Blue shells are a way for lesser skilled people to cheat their way into victories they DON'T DESERVE. Getting a blue shell is luck and nothing more. There is no skill involved in throwing a blue shell so the ONLY purpose for them being in the game is to punish people who are actually good at said game.

Do you think it's fair for the 1st to be totally protected from any attacks? It's like playing without items then because you can defeand red shells fairly easily being first. Not fair and not Mario Kart. If you are looking into the pure skill-simulation game this is not meant to be Mario Kart. The best player will usually win, but no always...
I say that and I have been really annoyed by blue shells at time, like losing 3 times in a row in an attempt to get 3 stars at the last circuit of the cup because of blue shells. But it's the game...
