A '''capture warp''', often colloquially referred to as a '''dram''' (but not to be confused with the original [[Dram Strat]]), is a technique that involves placing [[Cappy]] near a [[capture]] target, quickly performing another task as Mario, and then shaking the controller to cause Cappy to [[Homing cap throw|home in]] on the capture, causing Mario to be warped back to it. This technique is most useful when Mario passes a capture on his way to something but would then otherwise need to turn around to get back to the capture's location.

The action Mario performs must be done quickly, since there is a limit to how long Cappy can remain away from Mario. Most commonly (and in most major ~~speedrun categories~~), this action is collecting a [[Power Moon]], but it can also include collecting [[Regional coin|regional coins]] or anything else that can be done without the aid of Cappy.

[[Dram Strat (Sand Kingdom)|Dram Strat]] is one of the most famous examples, which involves throwing Cappy upward near a [[Bullet Bill]] while Mario collects a Power Moon in an alcove below. The capture warp saves Mario the time that would normally be required to climb out of the alcove and back up to the Bullet Bill spawner.
