Learn how to use the Big Mushroom in Mario Kart Wii to grow big, go faster, and crush other racers. Discover how to defend against it.

Position Received - 4th-8th

How to use - Activate the item to grow big, meaning you go faster and can crush other racers. To use this at its best, wait until the track opens up, or when there is a huddle of others ahead of you. Upon hitting another racer, they spin out and shrink.

Defending Against - If you (somehow) spot this, get out of the way. Using items against them do not work, so wait until they return to normal and feel free to extract your revenge. If you are lucky enough to have a Star, this takes them out.

Tips
  • Wait for an open track or a group of racers to maximize the Big Mushroom's effectiveness.
  • Items used against a Big Mushroom do not work.
  • A Star item can take out a racer using the Big Mushroom.
