This will be more generalized than the guide I made before. Identify and eliminate the good players or threats in each show to have a better chance for victory.
 
 

How it works

You want to win each show you join. Good.
 
But there are threats in every show.
 
You need to know who they are.
 
 
HOW IT WORKS:
 
 
1. Before the start of Round 1, view the entire population of players at the start. Look for the identifying factors of a threats based on cosmetics. There could be more than just 1 threat. Try to finish the round as fast as you can.
 
 
2. When you complete the round, click fast enough to spectate the remaining participants left. You are looking for identifying factors of a threat based on the banners and nicknames. You may not always view everyone as some will finish alongside during the Qualified queue and while spectating others.
 
 
3. When Round 1 has concluded, look for those threats that you have identified on the qualification board. Take note of their names to remember them by for the entirety of the show.
 
 
4. For the next upcoming set of rounds, use them as an opportunity to eliminate those threats before the finale. Threats are highly skilled at the finale, giving you a less likely chance for victory. Its really dependent what kind of rounds are presented. You are looking for rounds likeRoll Out, Jump Club, Tail Tag, and team games that have the threats on the other team like Jinx or Team Tail Tag. Pretty much any game that’s not a race you know you can eliminate someone at.
 
 
5. Take note. When you do try to eliminate them but failed to do so, theyWILL know you are a threat trying to sabotage them. Take matter in keeping an eye on them so they don’t retaliate back, some threats can be aggressive.
 
 
6. While you go through the other rounds take notice of players that are performing various stunts. A common player do not perform those tricks so this is also a filtered way to identify threats. They could be just hard to pull off stunts or even shortcuts to the round. Also there are players that know the rounds well and try to be first sotake account who are the fastest in race rounds. It could be the same player getting first.
 
 
7. Its the finale and if you have eliminated those threats, good job. You have a better chance for the crown as the skills from competition has decreased.If you failed to eliminate the threats before the finale, then you can either eliminate them there on your own approach or ride it out to see whose better skilled.

Wrap Up

This guide is for mostly identification purposes.
 
 
To deal with the good players is on your own.
 
 
In short the show would either give you the right type of maps that you’re comfortable with eliminating players at, or there could be no opportunity before the finale.
 
 
If they survive til the finale they are likely to win, that’s fact. So do your best to make them lose.
