Mario Kart World's roster of racers is massive, and although the beloved Moo Moo Meadows Cow was easily the most popular character in the Switch 2 racing game at launch, the bovine icon has now been overthrown by Spike, who's dominating high-level races online.
As spotted by Automaton, Spike is apparently everywhere once you've racked up a high enough online rating in Mario Kart World. Highlighted in a viral post from one fan, who shows an entire lobby of Spike players with ratings ranging from the 8,600s all the way to the 9,200s, they proclaim (translated by Automaton) "Mario Kart World has become an environment where Spike dominates the high-rating tiers."
