Battle Course 2 is the second of the four battle stages in Mario Kart: Super Circuit. This battle stage has yet to make a retro appearance.
It's surrounded by deadly lava on all sides, much like the Bowser Castle tracks in the same game.
Layout[]
The battle stage takes place on a square platform in the middle of a sea of lava inside one of Bowser's fortresses... the backdrop suggests that it's Bowser Castle 2. Four square lava lakes lie perpendicular to each other, and they are all separated by flooring made of wire mesh. Driving over the wire illuminates players with a reddish glow and makes them go slightly slower than on normal road (So it can be slightly disadvantageous to be driving on it.)
Four Jump Pads are at each end of the cross-section, which can be a big hazard if players are unskillful when it comes to controlling their Kart in midair. No guardrails in the center of the stage will quite often claim Balloons from other players. Finally, the outer edge of the whole platform is a light blue brick road, with Item Boxes laying about for attacking opponents. Thankfully, unlike the other Bowser's Castle courses, there are no Thwomps or Podoboos going all out for an attack.
Trivia![]
- This, Big Donut and Grumble Volcano are the only courses in the whole Mario Kart series with lava in that aren't named after Bowser.
- This is unless you count Lakeside Park with lava running in the background.
