Tier List Criteria

Special Skill and Courses

This tier list focuses on glider's special skill and amount of favored courses. Gliders' stats are linked tp their special skill and favored courses, unlike their counterpart from the console games which has other stats tied to them such as Speed, Handling, etc. Certain Skills like Lightning Plus and Coin Plus are more useful for increasing your total score, while something like Green Shell Plus is a bit harder to use effectively. Gliders of higher rarity also have higher base points in addition to more favored courses, and thus they rank higher.
