Tabor 

MVS (Most Valuable Super):  Right now, Green Shy Guy is my highest ranked Super driver (#65) and is only 8 spots behind Mario Sunshine (#57, only HE GB driver).  I am anticipating Yellow Toad PC to become the No 1 Super driver in the game and, after a few months of buffs and ranked use, the most valuable Giant Banana driver in the game.

Question:  Do Super Drivers matter anymore, especially to money spenders?  A maxed Super is Level 7, 975 points (less than a single capped HE).  If a CoinBox super driver came out, would you pick that over a higher leveled HE with a worse skill?  Does whales use Normal or Supers anymore or are they merely collector items? 

Studfit

So we just had a 30 pipe (Blue Gliders), Studfit showed both #beatthepipe vs single pipe pulls. Was it helpful? What were some takeaways? I know Frenzy Fans has had recent luck with single pulls… is that special pipe strategy or 100 pipe strategy? Let’s talk single vs ten pulls

PREDICTIONS

Studfit

As of right now (Thanksgiving), We just finished Autumn Celebration + Space Tour. Looking between now and Valentines Day, we have 6 tours and may or may not have a Holiday Tour, Winter Tour and New Years tour. Will we have those three tours and what will the other three tours be? City Tour? VS Tour? Nitro or Retro introduction? RMX?

Studfit

Of the three tours we may or may not have, I feel most confident about New Years, then Holiday Tour. Assuming we have a Holiday Tour, what specific new “Holiday” Character do you predict? Gingerbread alt? Elf alt? Another Santa… and what skill will they have?

ACR

Studfit

Rumor has it Tabor is pursuing a Top 100 ACR with a 1.25 Million goal, what tips would you give our buddy Tabor?

Studfit

Since the community continues to get cap tickets, we’re getting to the point where triple capping is less aggressive and becoming more commonplace, how do you treat cap tickets? How does that differ between driver, karts and glider?
