Question from Mario244

An undetectible team?

A team I used on yoshi circuit in the tunnel had a blue shell an not hit by it. I would like to know why and if it is not a glitch then who else will it work for? The team used was baby mario (driver) and King Boo (item user) in the bowser kart

Blue Shells happen to miss sometimes. When you get a boost from drifting right before the blue shell attacks you, it misses. When you have a star on, the blue shell would miss too. Some blue shells miss when you use a mushroom as well.

Answer

If another kart is near you in first, it may lock onto them instead of you. This lock-on occurs well before it actually hits. As far as I know, mushrooms and driftboosts won't save you from Blue Shells. Sometimes if you're over the edge of a course, the blue shell will hit you without doing anything.

This sounds like it was probably a hitzone glitch. The game probably read your position as being off the edge and the blue shell hit without actually making impact.
