>it's not instant
Great, I have nothing to counter it, but surely I will have something within the next 5 seconds, right?
>large blast radius that can affect other riders
it can, but rarely does.
>If I'm about to get wiped by a blue...
If second place is far behind you, you will lose even more time from doing that than if you just let it hit you, and you are being punished for being good. If he is close behind you, it is even worse, because It can throw you back that much more, and undeservedly so
>the horn
I have it once in a blue moon, and when I do and try to save it for the blue shell, I get hit by red shells instead. Unless I use it to defend against red shells, which is extremely wasteful
>Takes anything out in its path
No, it doesn't? Most of the time it does absolutely nothing for the player who uses it. Which means some stupid fucker gets to have a say in who will win the race, even though he isn't even participating.
You defend this piece of shit and thus are outing yourself as someone who commonly uses it, but rarely has to deal with it. So, a shitter. "I am always in the back ranks, I need my blue shell so I can tell myself I actually matter in this race, by affecting better players than myself, even if it never benefits me in terms of placement."
