Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

High gain, high drain.

The Crazy is all about maximizing it’s ring gain abilities in order to cash out on high speed boosts from Limiter Cut. Armed with a bevy of actions to build these rings, it can become extremely fuel efficient in some cases. However, it’s high costs also can affect it, as you’ll need to constantly be utilizing these mechanics in order to keep the pace up.

Crazy moves

Limiter Cut is a mechanic where, the slower you go, the faster you’ll boost. At first glance, it doesn’t seem very applicable to the pace of Sonic Riders. However, when you pair this with the next mechanic, you’ll be able to execute these flawlessly.
