Tier list for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
This list is not official and other players may not find it accurate. There are always different animal lists for games, which vary. As a rule, they reflect the subjective opinion of one or more players. A little skepticism may be appropriate, but maybe you really find the S-Tier drivers to be stronger and then you’ll be helped.
