You are 1st with a pretty decent lead and right after crossing the line, do you throw all your green shells, banana peels etc behind you to cause chaos?

When I beat Final Fantasy games, I have dozens of unused Elixirs. Such a waste.

I dont make that mistake in Mario Kart.

No, but thanks for the tip. I'd do that later.

Why wouldn't I? You don't get to take them with you to the next track.

Plus if you're playing 1P mode (or really any Grand Prix mode where you're doing multiple races and playing for points), hitting your main CPU rival (the one that is usually tailing you, and usually will be closest to you in points) right before the finish line can cause them to lose positions and help you cement a lead.

Absolutely. In the best case scenarios when I have a sizable lead and a banana peel (or more), I like to try to put them either at the bottom of ramps where people will be likely to land or inside item boxes where they're partially hidden :3

only if i'm at risk of being hit by something or passed, otherwise, no, i actually don't like fucking people over when i have nothing to gain. people say that's the fun of it, and the "chaos" is what makes mario kart fun, but after being stuck with mario kart 8 for so long, no, it really isn't fun anymore, especially when everything is ranked

At most, I'll have an item trialing behind me to avoid a snipe.

Maybe 80/20?

And the other 20% isn't because I'm a "honorable player", but because I'm paranoid about a random shell hitting me from behind out of nowhere.

I don't do it to fuck over other players, I do it to stop them from fucking me and stealing my victory.

Due to the amount of times I've been hit at the finish line (including literally half an inch away and going from 1st to like 4th or 5th), I instinctively hold items behind me for defense as I cross the finish line.
