Players like Matt, Dragon, Jazzem and Spindash know the game inside out and so, even if bad luck strikes them, over the course of a tournament they'll have the skills and knowledge to battle through and win.
Less skilled Karters such as myself have to fight for the scraps and, very occasionally, find that luck goes our way and roar to victory
. Even when we don't do that well, our experience will be improving race-by-race as we learn new techniques.
Oh for sure, Matt & Dragon are skilled drivers but I will not agree at all that the online for Mario Kart is all down to skill based. There are fundamental problems with online that help people with better connections, I don't know how many times I was 'rewarded' a mushroom while someone up front were given read shells.
