But you\u2019re not the only one who can pick \u2018em up, so use it wisely or risk giving your opponents a competitive advantage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ice Flower<\/strong> \u2014 The Ice Flower can be thrown at rival racers to briefly freeze them up and cause them to spin out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Hammer<\/strong> \u2014 Hammers are thrown in a big ol\u2019 arc and get embedded in the course; rival racers that hit them will crash out. They also look useful for blocking off parts of the course to mess up the other racers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Mega Mushroom<\/strong> \u2014 The regular Mushroom item makes you big, but the Mega Mushroom makes you <em>really <\/em>big.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Feather<\/strong> \u2014 You can do little hops already in Mario Kart, but the Feather item lets you do a big hop. You can use it to dodge incoming items.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Kamek<\/strong> \u2014 Kamek, the Magikoopa wizard, can transform other racers on the track. The video shows Kamek transforming racers into football players on racing vehicles.
