Burning Copy Food Ability Explained

The burning ability turns Kirby into a fast fireball. When using this ability, your attack power will soar through the roof allowing you to burn any enemies or competing Kirby to knock them out of the way. The ability also speeds you up so you can zoom past other players and reach the finish line fastest. This ability is great whenever you are in a battle situation and want to take out another player.

Jelly Copy Food Ability Explained

The Jelly ability allows Kirby to zip past obstacles and enemies at full speed without taking any damage or slowing down. Turn Kirby into Jelly and you’ll be able to skip walls while the rest of the players have to knock them down. With this ability, you can strategically sneak by and reach the finish line way before the rest of the players even blink.

Stone Copy Food Ability Explained

The Stone copy ability is a powerful ground pound that will send a shockwave in all directions. This power has two levels of power, you can click R once for a quick blast or hold R for a stronger blast with massive range. As a melee ability, it isn’t too difficult to avoid, but if the hit lands, your opponents will be sent flying.

Needle Copy Food Ability Explained

The needle ability can be a real thorn in the side. This ability features two parts, the first click will turn Kirby into a spikeball, a second click or hold of the button will charge Kirby and shoot him in any direction. This is one of the strongest attacks in the game and you can use it to puncture opponents and steal their strawberries.

Tornado Copy Food Ability Explained

The Tornado ability is all about scoring big points. This ability makes Kirby twist and turn to create an airstream that draws strawberries in his direction. It doesn’t have a huge effect on enemies, but if there are a lot of strawberries lying around, a carefully timed tornado will ensure you leave nothing for the rest of the players.

Drill Copy Food Ability Explained

The Drill ability sends Kirby underground allowing him to bypass many obstacles and sneak under the competition. Of course, this one includes a couple attacks. As Kirby submerges and re-emerges, he sends a small shockwave that can damage the enemies and players around. Timed well, this power will let you catch up to the player ahead and give them a good knock off course before you take the crown.

High-Jump Copy Food Ability Explained

The High-Jump copy ability is difficult to pull off, but when you do, the payoff is great. This ability lets Kirby jump high into the year and land with a huge bang. When you activate this ability, you can hold the R button to aim at a specific point to target your attack. Unfortunately, as an attack, this ability is pretty slow so you’re better off leaping over obstacles to get ahead.

Wheel Copy Food Ability Explained

The Wheel copy ability works a lot like the Burning copy ability, it’s just a little sweeter. Kirby turns into a donut and zooms quickly past the competition while also pushing them out of the way if you make contact. This ability is always a solid choice that can handle both speed and attack so it’s useful in plenty of situations.

Invincible Copy Food Ability Explained

A hidden ability that you cannot freely use in the Free Rolling mode is the Invincible copy food ability. You’ll be able to use this ability randomly by crashing into item blocks but it may take some time before it actually rolls for you. Once you get it, you are a complete powerhouse that cannot be taken down but will defeat everything in your path and collect strawberries that touch your forcefield.
