Baby Blooper's Currently the Best Kart

Baby Blooper has a balanced stat pool with an emphasis on Acceleration and Handling stat, giving it a balance of fair Speed and strong Handling which allow it to take difficult corners easily, and making it a great pairing for any character.

As no other 4-wheeled Kart uses the same stat arrangement as Baby Blooper, you won't see any alternative options providing the same advantages, and Baby Blooper is currently seen in all environments of play including at the top ranks of Time Trials.

Karts Below B Tier Not Included

This Kart Tier List only includes vehicles that qualify for S, A and B tiers. Vehicles that belong to the lower tiers are not included in this list.

Zoom buggy is my choice usually, with midweight-mid-lightweight characters when racing in knockout tour, where there is a lot of water and dirt terrain
