Whats the Best Coaster at CP?

Raptor yo.

Mantis.

Raptor and Maverick are the only two that I really like, the rest are kinda blah. I do like Mantis, Blue Streak, Wildcat, and Magnum a bit, but not enough to consider best.

mantis IMO is a great stand-up, although pulling nearly 1.2 lats threw the last corkscrew knocks ur head around, and is quite painful, mantis is overall really good. i specificly enjoy the inclined loop. Those have always been a favorite element of mine... mean streak is a pretty BA woody too, and magnum delivers great airtime towards the end...

Why does everyone like it so much?

-Incredibly strong negative gs, some of the strongest out there
-Insane launch
-Awesome first drop
-Fastest banking rotations ever
-Strong positive gs
-Lightning quick pacing
-One of the best pairs of inversions ever (Twisted Horseshoe Roll)
-Incredibly intense

Maverick > All other steel coasters in the world besides Phantom's Revenge and Storm Runner

And it's not even close.

Cross out
-One of the best pairs of inversions ever (Twisted Horseshoe Roll)-You haven't ridden many loopers if you think that and its already been done to better extents. Example Batman the ride. And its not a new inversion!!
-Insane launch-I found nothing insane about that launch.
-There are quicker bank rotation. Again in batman the ride and several other inverts. Particularly in the wing overs.

I have ridden it and i thought it was fun and all but I enjoy B&m loopers much more.

No, I disagree with all of that. I have ridden a lot of loopers, including three of the Batman clones, and none of the inversions even come close to the twisted horseshoe roll. Maverick takes that inversion at a perfect pace, and you just float for what feels like forever. What did Batman outdo it with?

I also don't think Batman's inversions, or any other inverts, even come close to Maverick's last stengal dive. You can literally blink and be almost all the way through it.

The launch is a personal opinion, but I disagree because one, you don't know when the launch will actually begin. Two, the lights and smoke in there is awesome! Three, it exits into a turn which has some of the strongest positive G's I have ever felt, and four, the exit of the launch tunnel is so small, it's a major arm/head chopper.

And then, there are still the rest of the points that IntaminFan brought up.

Ok, sooo, Maverick pwns everything!

Ride Batman in the front, and Ride Kingda Ka or Top Thrill Dragster. And ride El toro while your at it so you can get over your Maverick pwns everything logic.

Dood. Those corks aren't even fast at all. And Maverick pwns everything.

I don't see how you can think every coaster at cedar point is bad. (Quote Wait CP has a good coaster?" Maverick, with all the hype and annoyance from everyone, is truly a good ride. Raptor, oh you may think it's just a B&M Invert, but IMO, it is an excellent ride. Really smooth too. MF, it's the drop and the rush that it's all about. TTD, blah but the launch force was insane. Mantis, hurts your balls and I want to go blow torch it down right now. Gemini, classic racing steel-on-wood hybrid that's ALWAYS a fun ride to ride. You get the point. IMO, it is a fact that in any opinion, CP has at least one good or even decent coaster.

I have actually ridden all 3 Batmans in the front, as well as TTD and KK in the front. Rode El Toro in the back and front too many times to remember, and still, Maverick is much more intense than all of them.

I would have to say Millenium Force Or Maverick but prbly Maverick
