The POW Block was not bad in wii at all but it is a bit worse in MKPC as it is a bit more confusing to dodge (and a bit harder).
The Poison is bad because it replaces the thunder cloud in a way and it is a disadvantage to new and bagging players.
Also the other items are good

imo the poison punishes lower spots, but not too much cuz its EZ to dodge, yep at the same time could be helpful to get someone off your back, the pow on the other hand... what do you do on MC1, MC3, BC1, etc. and plus its too hard to dodge imo cuz there aren't very many jumps on tracks, and some tracks outright dont have jumps ... so what do you do there? we should kill the pow and keep the poison

You can use the jump to make the POW less stronger...

Guys, please calm down. It seems like my "which one would you choose" is starting to create a drama and I'm against this.
Instead of judging blindly someone else's opinion, try to first take a step back and ask yourself why did they make that choice.
By thinking like this, you are first of all avoiding any form of drama, and second of all you are debating in a very mature and peaceful way, which is what we're aiming for! ^^
I'm going to explain the differences between the Poison Mushroom and the POW Block and why do people think one is good, the other is bad, and vice versa. I will then give my personal opinion on each items.
• Poison Mushroom:
The poison mushroom was an item first introduced as a CPU Only item in Super Mario Kart. It basically acts the same as the way it did before: It spins out the player and shrinks them for a short time.
• Positive aspects: The poison mushroom being back in Mario Kart PC gives it a very nostalgic effect for some players. This item, being obtainable in the early-middle spots can act like a strong defensive item. It can be trailed and thus block any incoming shells.
Because of the shrinking effect it gives on hit, players have to be very carefully not to hit one because it can definetly ruin their race because of the big time loss.
• Negative aspects: This item can be seen as very repetitive item that isn't necessarily needed in Mario Kart PC: it is basically just a banana but a bit better or a bob-omb but worse. Players may just see this item simply as another trailable item that doesn't have much difference from other items.
Personal Opinion: I don't mind about the poison mushroom, I do think it deserves its place in the distribution although sometimes it can be quite annoying if you're aiming to have a mushroom but end up having a poison mushroom instead. It happened to me multiple times that I wanted to dodge a blue shell with a mushroom but the moment I press the item key to shroom dodge I just end up trailing a poison because I had a poison mushroom instead of a normal mushroom... (shame on me for that xD).
• POW Block:
The POW block made its first appearance as an item in Mario Kart Wii. Upon using it, a POW block will appear on every player's screen that are ahead of player who used the item, and will crash 3 times. On the third and final crash, any player who isn't in a dodge state or in the air with a cannon or a jump will get spun out and lose their items. This item never came back in any other official Mario Kart games after Mario Kart Wii.
• Positive aspects: The POW block being able to hit multiple players at once and make them lose their items makes it an EXTREMELY powerful item. A POW block has to be used very wisely for it to have a maximum efficiency. Just like the poison mushroom, the POW block being back in Mario Kart PC (with a very rare chance of being pulled in the standard distribution) makes it a very nostalgic item and it's good to see forgotten items being alive again.
• Negative aspects: Despite its extreme strenght, a very probable reason the POW block never returned in any other Mario Kart game is because of how random it is and how similar it is to the lightning.
It's just a lightning but worse for multiple reasons: it only hits players who are in front of the user, it has a less big effect on players and it is predictable. Today, many players see this item as the "mini shock".
Personal Opinion: I'm personally a big fan of the chaos created by every item during Mario Kart races and items like the POW block which can litteraly hit so many players at once and making them drop all their items is exactly what I love to see.
Some people may call me crazy but me loving chaos is also the reason why I like the other hated items such as: Thundercloud, Blue Shell, Lightning and Kamek. I call those items the "Chaos" items.
Of course guys, it's normal if some of you don't agree with my statements and it's completely okay to agree or not agree with something! Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion and it's always great to see different opinions from everyone, even if they're out of the ordinary (just like me liking the thundercloud as an item for example xD). Hoping to see more votes from other people!

Because of the shrinking effect it gives on hit, players have to be very carefully not to hit one because it can definetly ruin their race because of the big time loss.
• Negative aspects: This item can be seen as very repetitive item that isn't necessarily needed in Mario Kart PC: it is basically just a banana but a bit better or a bob-omb but worse. Players may just see this item simply as another trailable item that doesn't have much difference from other items.
Personal Opinion: I don't mind about the poison mushroom, I do think it deserves its place in the distribution although sometimes it can be quite annoying if you're aiming to have a mushroom... but end up having a poison mushroom. It happened to me multiple times that I wanted to dodge a blue shell with a mushroom but the moment I press the item key to shroom dodge I just end up trailing a poison because I had a poison mushroom instead of a normal mushroom (shame on me for that...).

POW Block:The POW block made its first appearance as an in Mario Kart Wii. Upon using it, a POW block will appear on every player's screen that are ahead of player who used the item, and will crash 3 times. On the third and final crash, any player who isn't in a dodge state or in the air with a cannon or a jump will get spun out and lose their items. This item never came back in any official Mario Kart games after Mario Kart Wii.
• Positive aspects: The POW block being able to hit multiple players at once and make them lose their items makes it an EXTREMELY powerful item. A POW block has to be used very wisely for it to have a maximum efficiency. Just like the poison mushroom, the POW block being back in Mario Kart PC (with a very rare chance of being pulled in the standard distribution) makes it a very nostalgic item and it's good to see forgotten items being alive again.
• Negative aspects: Despite its extreme strenght, a very probable reason the POW block never returned in any other Mario Kart game is because of how random it is and how similar it is to the lightning.
It's just a lightning but worse for multiple reasons: it only hits players who are in front of the user, it has a less big effect on players and it is predictable. Today, many players see this item as the "mini shock".
Personal Opinion: I'm personally a fan of the chaos created by item during races and items like the POW block which can litteraly hit so many players at once and making them dropa all their items is exactly what I love to see.
Some people may call me crazy but me loving chaos is also the reason why I like the other hated items such as: Thundercloud, Blue Shell, Lightning and Kamek. I call those items the "Chaos" items.
Of course guys, it's normal if some of you don't agree with my statements and it's completely okay to agree or not agree with something! Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion and it's always great to see different opinions from everyone, even if they're out of the ordinary (just like me liking the thundercloud as an item for example xD). Hoping to see more votes from other people!
ok guys he's right, there both up there, now that I think about it, WE NEED THE CHAOS. THATS WHY I PLAY THIS GAME. and the poison, sure it can be frustrating to get it, mistake it for a shroom and miss a cut or blue dodge. it happens to me a lot (especially on MC1 as I'm more focused on taking big cuts, then realizing what item I actually have)but the poison also has many other positive things like being able to whip it out when someones right behind you. honestly I agree with you Nodac.

Guys, please calm down. It seems like my "which one would you choose" is starting to create a drama and I'm against this.
Instead of judging blindly someone else's opinion, try to first take a step back and ask yourself why did they make that choice.
By thinking like this, you are first of all avoiding any form of drama, and second of all you are debating in a very mature and peaceful way, which is what we're aiming for! ^^
I'm going to explain the differences between the Poison Mushroom and the POW Block: and why do people think one is good, the other is bad, and vice versa. I will then give my personal opinion on each items.

For once I agree with you, Nodac. In fact, the chaos (and customization) is what makes MarioKart PC, MarioKart PC.
