What skills have you mastered so far?

[yamaraja5]

I have mastered the art of optimal drifting and double boosting. Still trying to master multiple boost, link boost, and multiple drifting.

What have you mastered?

[TeamDarkness]

I master Muti boost, and link boost.

[akprince]

optimized.

[Spyyder0]

everything only took a month to learn it all, always getting better at it.

[Dutchkid989]

Blocking. =)

[amjenger]

i mastered cutt drift and harvest or sweeping drift. im trying to do the multi boost but not really correctly.

[TeamDarkness]

Blocking. =)
Blocking is useless in single
I use it in TEam

[Soullreaper]

I used to be able to do most of it... but imm not a PK/KKR fan so I havent played in months, so ill most probably suck :P

[amjenger]

someone who would block in single speed or item is an idiot.

Or maybe I don't care about losing Lucci or RP, Tart Slapper.

[TeamDarkness]

I dont like noob blocker. They can't block and sometime they block their own teammate

[OnqueoMahia]

Which is why single blocking is the way to go. No blocking teammates 'cuz you don't have any. :]

I couldn't of said that better myself. :thumb:

it is just like you said, single blocking is for nubs because they can't block in team mode. and that is why team blocking is something hard to do, only pros would do it. like Ryan. fom the Tgames.

If ur a pro the only blocking u will do is getting stuck on a corner while a 2-4 of the opposite team is on your tail. If ur good enough u shouldn't need to block in team. I only do it if i get killed so bad that i will retire.

[stephen64]

I can double 40% of the time and multi 20% of the time. I know it's not that good but at least it's something.

[TeamDarkness]

i can do doubble 95%
Muti 45%

[roberto6x2]

optimize is not even a skill...lmao and multi booste is hard to do if you watch too many videos on how to do em. i struggled so much to learn it, then i quit once on learning it lol... the videos show you the incorrect way in my opinion and im not doing it wrong. if you need help just pm me and ill be glad to teach the multi. there's several ways to do it, just remember that.

[amjenger]

i can do it but not really correctly. so i just focus more on runnindg away from the bumbers.

[roberto6x2]

no, go to zoomtown highway (village, the one with the big circle at start) and practice there...if ur having trouble look up videos for the link drift, thats how u do multis. just keep doing link drift not how some videos explain the multi, cause then you loose too much speed and it wont work. the multi, when you drift again you need to be holding up still, the videos says to press shift+direction of multi, wich results in loss of speed. hard to explain >.<

[amjenger]

i went there once and did it, but as i said not correctly. i think i just need to practice more.

[roberto6x2]

ok well i went there once too and "olmost" got it...then i went again and olmost got it again...and kept going and going day by day until i got it...to be honest i learned how to do it 2 months ago and iv been playing since october xD

incorrect, optimize is the most important skill.

most of my records in time attack is done with optimized drifts only.

note: i am not a noob, i can double ~100% and multi ~99%.

True, optimization is probably the most important skill cuz u use it on every track. I know when i first played speed, i drifted AROUND the corners. I didnt realize that this type of drift reduced your speed alot. Once someone told me about the "perfect drift" or optimizing, the key was timing. Once u have the timing down, i would consider it not a skill anymore cuz u do it w/o thinking.

And btw its not the % that rlly matters but how effectively u can use these drifts. U have to know how many boosts are needed to get a good amt. of n2o and how to multi / db close to the wall. Personally since u all are talking about %s: I would say that i db 98% of the time. and multi (The longest multi i ever use is 4 ((Freeway and G/C, maybe others)) usually 3) i get all the boosts 90% of the time. Those of u that say that u multi 99% of the time, i would reccomend u go to freeway and practice boosting 3-4 times around the corner before steep hill. Do it 100 times and see how many times u effectively get all the boosts and remain close to the wall.

[roberto6x2]

well i never considered it a skill because I natuarlly did it all the time, then i found out that it was a "skill" so idk. sometimes you need to do it and sometimes you dont...if you optimize all the time then you are obviusly not multing or link drifting.

[Jaguar]

U optimize into ur db/multi. If u dont then its not effective.

[Spyyder0]

easy for me, that exact corner is where i did most of my practicing, ta and multi around that corner for 2 hours. :rofl:

A problem I've been having with the saber sr is that sometimes I'll optimize a little to much when doing multi and will come juuuust short of getting the bar full. it pisses me off. :mad:

[AverageAsian`]

All skills. 80% Link. -_-"

Yay. I block as well :D
Me and dutch had a massive block fest in NAKR almost every day :D

[amjenger]

one really good place to block for me is in the future tracks, the ones with the green boosters. stand just right infront of one when someone is coming, he will fly out.

[roberto6x2]

I think the most important skills are the link and cut drift xD

[TeamDarkness]

is link and muti the same? which is better

[Rush]

link is when u combine, 2 boost( double boost) in to one single boost(longer then your average drift-boost), some people consider a really fast double boost to be link. Multi-drift is when u do drift-boost-drift-boost or drift- drift-boost drift boost...etc.
