Mario Kart: Dodge blue tanks - how it works
A blue tank often costs victory in Mario Kart. With a few tricks you can avoid the annoying item.
Item vs. Item: Dodge the blue tank in Mario Kart
In Mario Kart, the blue tank always hits the driver in first place. In addition to all items and coins, you also lose valuable seconds. You can only avoid the tank with certain items:
- Star: If you have activated a star, you are invulnerable. So the blue tank can't harm you either.
- Missile: As soon as you deploy the missile, you will fly forward quickly. Meanwhile, the tank can't do anything either.
- Mushrooms: Neither the star nor the rocket are in the forefront. The situation is different with mushrooms: you often get them from the question mark blocks. Insert a mushroom as soon as the blue tank circles over you and moves up briefly. So just drive away from the explosion.
- Without item: If you don't have an item, you cannot avoid the tank. In such a case, drive very close to your opponents. After all, you won't be caught by the explosion alone.
