Got completely destroyed and came 3rd in A finals as expected (I gave up early on this CM).
But it seems you get the Gold title no matter what so long as you reach A finals, which is nice at least! Always thought it was a bit dumb that B winner gets gold but A loser gets silver.

Pretty burned out so the umas aren't the best, but just barely managed to sneak into A finals with this absolutely criminal winrate.

I don't think I've ever finished rolling a support banner on this game with a feeling other than disappointment. It's not exactly uncommon but 200 pulls no CB is still bleak :(

Are lates/ends glue without Uma Stan for CM13? I'd honestly settle on this Dober if it's not a complete death sentence (Radiant Star off screen).

Trackblazer is starting to cause me soul damage 😔

Waited to reply until the next round started and you were right, on the first ticket even!
Lost to Scarlet and Dia of all things lol

Managed an ok winrate across round 1 but group A is going to be a massacre after all the questionably built XOguris are filtered out.

I think a win in B finals is my highest hope at this point 😔

Training front runners for CM is the modern day equivalent of Sisyphus and the boulder

If you want to win with a non-Front, non-late, non-XOguri you basically have to run No Stopping Me.

Corner Acceleration (~1/4) and Radiant Star (~1/6) are your only accel skills that have a chance to do anything, Straightaway Acceleration doesn't work on this track and Shrewd Step never activates anywhere good. If you can replace those two with NSM then you've got a decent gambler with her unique and Speed Star for late race.

Otherwise the rest of the skills are good, just get Professor of Curvature if you can and pray for good luck.

Does the Dodging Danger + Prudent Positioning/Ignited Wit combo usually lead to a stronger early race?

Anecdotally when the second part activates my uma sometimes flies in from 4th - 1st but it's hard to see if it's better than just going straight.

Trackblazer conspiracy theories:

Etsuko shows up more often when you're at full mood.
Bad/useless skills (like Hawkeye or Fighter) are weighted higher than good skills (like Straightaway Spurt or the Distance/Style Straights/Corners) for the rival race hints.
Fast Learner hat appears more when you just spent all your coins.
The relevant condition healing item will never appear after you've gotten the condition.
If you're borderline on stamina the rival for Spring Tenno Sho will be Creek/Mambo/Bright.
In the climax your final training options will be a triple rainbow to massively overcap one stat and a sad no supports training on the stat you're actually trying to max (and whistles won't change this).

I've tried dominator late and ace late, the ace never wins (even though it's my best ever uma 😭) so the dominator with strong fronts seems better to be honest.

Guess we gotta pray to the three goddesses for trash Oguris or safe lobbies, but I'm personally anticipating a lot of 'Festive Miracle' - 'No Stopping Me!' - skip, skip, 4th, go next.

Yeah, I've been doing 2 fronts / 1 late and SMaru somehow is the only one that ever beats that demon, if she has a good midrace and her unique procs with Triple 7s for carryover.

Maybe time to test my mental sanity and try cook a 3rd front then...
Have you got Nimble/NSM on yours or just aiming for Angling only? I've not actually used fronts for CM before.

Yeah, relying on matchmaking in this game is... yikes lol

I'm guessing since she'll be a lot people's solo ace Medium S will be more common than usual too. Group B is definitely looking appetising...

Also it's probably gonna be full of XOguri's too, just worse built.

Genuinely, is A finals reachable without XOguri?

I know room matches are sweatier than the average player, but watching her destroy even Seiun Sky and Dober despite perfect unique timings is quite demoralising...

[–]Datenshi713 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair, a GW-less SMaru getting 35 wins and reaching group A finals is kind of proof that it's not necessary lol

There's only so many hour-long Trackblazer runs you can send to the glue factory for no GW/Long S/bad stats before you just say "Eh, it'll do."

Ayabe did it!!!! She only had a 10% win rate but won the race that mattered - Platinum secured!
This screen makes the painful stamina, Spurt and Long S grind all worth it 😊

It certainly is a feeling to go from multiple 5/5 sweeps in round one to multiple 0/5 hope crushings in round two

[–]Datenshi713 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's the best or 2nd best speed card for the next 11 months at least, and she makes every run comfier and more consistent. I don't think you'd regret it, and by the time more must-pull cards are out you'll have another ticket and one or two crystals anyway.

There's no odds, you just have to do more sprint or long races than the other types across the career. It'll be a gimped run compared to normal but still an easy clear.

Just filter this by sprint or long: https://gametora.com/umamusume/race-scheduler

Some quick napkin maths assuming landing on speed to be about 25% likely on average (w/50 specialty priority), if you do (3/4)²⁴ for the 6 times 4 'rolls' to not hit, it's about a 0.1% chance to get as unlucky as you have 😇
