SQUAD UP HELP
You may have friends here already, or you may meet your next lifelong squadmate here. Either way, Channel 3 is most fun when you find your people and can have friendly competitions and participate in challenges together.
Below you can navigate all the gamers, clubs, and causes on Channel 3.
If you'd like to create and run a Club, submit an New Club Request.
Whether it's 1 to 2, or 99 to 100, leveling up is the best feeling in the world. On Channel 3, when you participate in quests, when your post gets 1Up'd, when you crush a daily minigame, you get XP. Get 1k XP, and you level up and unlock rewards. Rewards can be custom reaction GIFs, cool backgrounds, or prize wheel spins for IRL gaming gear or in game currency.
Turbo is an optional subscription for superusers. You don't need Turbo to enjoy Channel 3. Turbo users get early access to new features, and are able to unlock more levels in a season.
On Channel 3, seasons last 3 months. They will always run January 1 - April 1, April 1 - July 1, July 1 - October 1, and October 1 - January 1.
Open channel3.gg in Chrome. Click the Install icon in the right side of the address bar:
Click Install when you get this prompt.
After installation, you can pin to the Windows taskbar alongside your other favorite apps.
Open channel3.gg in Safari. It has to be Safari.
Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.
Tap Add to Home Screen.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
Because whenever I play with normies it's useless, then you get into a race with you guys and people throw them backwards just before crossing the lines lol I never expect it
I hate it when it’s being used. I don’t hate it when I use it though. 😆
Also, I am glad that they eliminated the ability of running you over flat. But at the same time, I miss it because it...more
If I'm stuck in the middle of the pack, I'm not getting much use out of a fire flower. I usually just spam it out and use whatever my next item is, which is usually better for me. Can't use a fire flo...more
It’s a risky item to use. For one, you can’t actually see what other players got and when they used them, like in mkds. And when you do use it at the wrong time you get a single mushroom. Pretty u...more
The blue shell is specifically made to take down the first place.
You are thinking everything is over, get hit and 4 folks pass you at the finish line.
I can count on one hand the number of times I've gotten it, ans I need more than my fingers and toes to count the number of times it's been used against me
losing my held items, shrinking with the possibility of being run over, and if timed right, falling off the track due to lack of speed... all around just don't like being on the receiving end of this ...more
Nothing hurts more than trying to mount a comeback, hitting that double block, and getting a bullet bill... behind a piranha plant with not enough track left to use both. Every time.
You’re defenseless, can’t use other items - It’s like putting a kick me sign on your back for 10 seconds. The only redeeming quality is it’s satisfying to chomp someone
It just doesn't really do much. They need to make it so your screen gets inked and then also makes your tires more slick or something like that. Regardless, it's trash.
I find the piranha plant and super horn to be pretty useless compared to other offensive items. Yet nothing is more frustrating than losing a race at the last second because of a dang blue shell! An...more
Fire Flower’s are the worst! This isn’t even a debate.
I never realized those were bells at animal crossing?! Also rlly hoping we get some sort of alternate coin for a future dlc track.
Edit: ...more
It’s the plant. I get how it eats items/opponents but: no rear defense, the boost isn’t impactful, & you can’t get rid of the plant quick enough. At least I can be super offensive w/rang & fire ...more
