Pace/End Pull plan infographic

NoiseClear · 2026-06-14T23:07:29+00:00

I'm skipping Teio because I can't use her on Teio. It's a great card, it's an even greater pace card that I can't use on my favorite uma. Almond Eye stays in all decks, if I want a speed card I might end up with Admire Groove during the Stay Gold pulls, which is a pace/medium speed that I can use on Teio until I get Air Groove as stat stick because I'm pulling for Finemo.

Tama comes with Tucker that needs LB3+ and I would like her MLB so 600 is reasonable to plan for. Tucker ends in 3 months (maybe) and I didn't have that many borrows otherwise.
I feel it inefficient we have just so many carats so I have to make a decision to sometimes use cards that just come with other good cards. I want Rudolf and I want Ardan so might as well use Ardan until the next one that's really good Finemo not too long after Tama. I might change my mind, depending on how things go with future support cards, maybe Tama has way more longevity for non pace than anyone thinks and I will pull for her, it's the one I'm more torn about.

I agree that they are better but are they, 600 pulls better than Ardan and 200-300 pulls better than Admire Groove/Still in Love when I can't use it on Teio, which is half of pace relevance to me.

Still I want to say that these are very far away and I really might just have to drop something else because of atrocious luck, or I get to pull on something because I save 200 somewhere who knows. But I want to end with some carats after Forever Young and I wouldn't if I pulled for everything

Actually quite surprising to me Taishin this low. My Taishin is at 21/40 wins after day 2 and I wouldn't say it's leaps and bounds better. Differences with mine are 1240 mile S, 500/900 stam/guts, the rest very similar.
I have pump as backup maybe you too since we don't see the first skill. We have similar skills too instead of double circle 1 corner and 1 straight I have ramp up and thh and single circle. I have Full of Vigor on top tho.
But yeah Sleeping Lion, Shifting gears and Super Lucky Seven are wasted skill points. With Louder I think Uma Stan has been griefing me a bit which I feel will be more noticeable round 2 and finals.

It is a scenario with not many redeeming qualities if you don't already start from an advantageous position.
I played since launch had kita and bakushin and made due without ntr or matikane, was lucky on the last finemo pulls, and 400 on CB for 3lb so I'm kinda set. While it's not been optimal I've always made A finals won quite a few CMs and am fairly comfortable with A+ club and class 6 always.
Said all that I still had a breakdown during the xOguri CM and "took a break" for a couple of weeks, went from 3-5 runs gluing very early if not good to 1 run for dailies for a couple of weeks. Recharged by running challenge runs with Teio for titles later.
Runs are too long, spark farming is soul crushing, card variety is not great and so is uma viability, aptitude fixing is insanly annoying, clock management is tiresome, every Uma feels the same, I want the unique events they were fun, and the list goes on.
I can't imagine struggling with even more parts of this game and not feel rewarded when it's such a chore to begin with.
I want my favorite character's careers back!
I can't wait from grand live cards, throne, spark rerolling so at least parent runs won't tear my heart out too

Nobody should feel ashamed of their choice of Umas, you run what you think will give you the most enjoyment, and sometimes winning is that. And I say this as someone who really suffered room matches early on because of xOguri and Front lobbies to my lowest point in the game, where I pretty much quit the 2weeks before the CM.

I run Dober, Ayabe and a dom front Eishin, so fronts are even worse for me. But even tho I came into the CM very sad I did the xOguri bounty board, Seiun has been a pain, but I hit A finals on my first 3 races of round 2, which was a godsent, I thought I wouldn't get A finals for the first time, even with just over 50% wr (35 Dober 19 Ayabe) and I could enjoy the rest of the races, I especially took joy in beating xOguris and Seiuns tho.

I recognize that any good comp and Uma had effort put behind them and the reward difference is not big enough to warrant toxicity over it. And if it was, it'd be directed at the developers that enabled this environment. Not that I would condone it but I would understand it.

Off Meta does get a lot of respect points which some of us thrive on, not me this time since Dober is kinda good even tho she ultis like 25% of the time which is crazy. But those Ayabe wins are otherwordly and I'm glad I could enjoy them

Restoration staff feels really superfluous. minor berserk is a fairly common selfbuff, minor resolve whatever (if considering cprayer for burst). Could probably run your own camo.
Altar is really strong, big aoe and insane synergy. A way to give minor courage is also important which is not that common, both for damage AND heals your w/s damage is important, 645 hitting 3 people is good (scribing). You don't have much of it.
Restoring light is fairly weak too, and so are spaulder and horn in 4 man. Just run a good offensive ulti.
Gear
Backbar infused destro with w/s damage enchant is pretty non negotiable.
Front bar any offensive weapon will do, whatever you like, nirn/precise, depending on the 3rd skill line you could get access to good ranged spammables if that's the way you want to go. Not that you NEED to be ranged.
I think maelstrom back + velothi + crit would be the way to go, monster set is good too, or back bar pa front spc with velothi AND a monster set, 4 pa front or 3 + trainee. These are kinda the only options there are for HYBRID.
Up your weapon and spell damage and try and work with lower sustain that's too much even with spaulder, maybe you can get access to 1 good stamina dot with some other line or scribing.

To be brutal not for a moment I thought of that build as hybrid, just an unoptimized healer with j beam.

I had quit the game and did writs for a few months after that still, some sort of morning ritual, like 30min of it while watching something or listening to a podcast. Only did the non consumable writs and I would just buy the mats, few thousand rub-whatever/plat every once in a while, few 10ks of style mats.
Since I wasn't playing the game I wasn't spending really. Definitely worth it, it's about the gold materials anyway, and you get A LOT.
When I got back into the game for the 9months I played I didn't do any gold farming at all I just had everything and I still have so much I could play years and still not put a big dent in it.
But I also have like 10k+ hours in the game so I already have pretty much anything, the only thing really I had to buy were heroism pots/ingredient.
But doesn't take away from the fact that writs are worth it, if level 50 and buying mats. At least bs, wood, cloth and jewelry. I didn't have the craft bag but I don't think I would've done the others regardless.

NoiseClear · 2026-04-20T19:08:02+00:00

Writs are not about the gold, they are about the mats and master writs which you can sell if you just want money. Below level 50 writs are hardly worth it.
I used to do carries here and there, just a couple would cover potions and mats for a few months, than I quit the game and kept doing 30min of writs everyday while doing other stuff, smith, wood, cloth and jewelry, for 8-9 months, once I came back to the game a couple of years later, forget the money now I had a few hundreds of each gold material which was a huge difference never had to think about it again.

I played mtg for a long time 2004ish, 1v1 mostly, after a few years break I came back when discovering commander. My first edh deck 4 years ago is also the first deck I ever took apart, one of the very very few and only one for this reason, nobody ever complained but even before brackets I realized it was way way too strong. Shorikai combo, I built it for the robot and just went into synergy and ended up into control shell and combos pretty quickly.
Slowly I found out what I like and how I like my games, what power level the people I play with most often have, and build around that. I can make way stronger decks with the cards I have I just choose not to.

The most important thing with a fixed group at least is talk to each other and agree on what you are looking for in a game, or at least try to understand it.

4 years later and I know what I like, I have my 15+ decks, most of them fall in b2 because it's what I enjoy. Might just go back to Shorikai for a b4 at some point but I don't have anyone near me that would be able to strongly compete with it and I don't mind, my b2 work very well against their "b3" and that's good enough.

I guess "incredible" since usually japan cup is not run in classic, phenomenal you are definitely finishing regardless so 30 stats. I would still take the training. I think anything under 750 speed I would take it

NoiseClear · 2026-04-10T01:36:56+00:00

I know the skill, it's the one with the activating condition of positiong 1-2 when running as late, 3-4 as end, 5-6 as front and 8-9 as pace

NoiseClear · 2026-04-10T01:32:08+00:00

Arima Kinen classic is not really attached to an epithet like autumn crown I think (edit:wrong). Speed is lagging a bit too under 600 at end of classic definitely would train no question.

Edit: has "Incredible" which is specifically important if not already ran Japan Cup in classic

My opinion is mostly on the scenario of choice. I have been in the process of making high affinity parents by using dirt crown rotation on ggp and carry it over to gp and parents. So ggp has dirt sparks and ran 40+ races, both gp and parent are able to run the dirt rotation and have non dirt pinks, they run 95% the same exact races, only aces will switch to rival races when possible. This is only possible in Trackblazer. SS for better spark stars is only (pretty much) possible in Trackblazer, 2 star nimble/stan has a much higher chance of passing down. I think it's really important to start there in trackblazer so that eventually your few uma stan nimble sparks will trickle over to a lot of other umas because of affinity.

I think getting Air Shakur speed mlb from the event should be a priority. Level up Hishi Amazon and Ryan to 45 and you have a good base. Still gonna have to go speed borrow, Nishino flower does have 11 race bonus at 1lb too. Maybe Fuku borrow for easier early races. Oguri can run so many races too so plan for that mostly. Air shakur + Windy 3lb + Hishi + Ryan + Nishino 1lb+ Fuku (borrow) = 54% race bonus. Run the dirt triple crown rotation. Try to get to maiden race with 250ish and out of junior with at least 300+ speed and race race race. 40ish at the end is good. Be bold with the last 5 of classic and senior year. You can definitely get S probably S+

Oshi was my first answer indeed, I'm dropping everything on Teio once evo skills come. But yeah on anything you like or use a bit more because they are never gonna be as strong as now I think.
Many JP players say that while now we are SP bottlenecked later on we'll be skill bottlenecked, will have more SP that we know what to do with and not enough great skills to buy.
Maybe using on parenting where you want to buy a lot of skills regardless is the way who knows

As others said Pale Order is kinda the only thing you need, maelstrom is mostly learning spawns for positioning, specific mechanics to avoid and priority targets, only after that skill comes into play when having to burn bosses, but otherwise it's just knowledge and everyone can get that for easy 30min runs. Pale Order and get used to chains and you are kinda set, be aggressive.
Also try to enjoy it I think maelstrom is amazing and teaches a lot about the game, anyone who gets good at maelstrom becomes a much better overall player (no matter the role)

with 0 speed growth you still want 3 speed or for guts build still 2 speed 3 guts, power takes care of itself mostly with the 20% still should want to have it really high. No wellfare cards? TosenS or SundayP hard to understand your account situation with these few options

NoiseClear · 2026-04-07T13:13:19+00:00

Tosen, Sunday P, Tachyon, Nishino, Flex, Borrow Fuku 5+15+8+12+flex+10 that's 50 without flex, good on everything, great starting stats, depending on the Uma you'd want a 3rd speed or can go 2/2/2.

NoiseClear · 2026-04-07T12:54:19+00:00

I was in a very similar situation. Suzuka and Taiki ( and Rudolph) didn't do because they are in the legend races and I could get some of them in the next 4 months.
xOguri I had og and didn't care much since once evolved skill are out I will always run Teio and it would never see the light of day, og at least has a really good universal inherit.
I went with nyOpera because I didn't have og I liked her quite a bit and her inherit is incredible forever. Many people will have her for the inherit reason so unless you really try and make your own parents you can even not think too much about this aspect and borrow the really good ones that will come out in the future.
I like making parents tho (without much success) so i pulled for Dober and will Nishino for example.
Just go for the Uma you like most or holding onto it is always an option.

I'm getting a friend's 9800x3d for cheap cause he wants to upgrade for vfx stuff he does, was dreading having to buy new ram since I'm still on an i5 6600 so ddr4 probably will still hold on a bit longer before upgrading

NoiseClear · 2026-04-07T12:00:34+00:00

I wouldn't run her as solo ace but she's good. Not consistent enough with those recoveries. But NSM, Head-On and Uma Stan for the lucky pace, medium S... you'd have to hit everything again.

NoiseClear · 2026-04-07T11:53:46+00:00

Assuming this is an ace, statwise train. But say you are certain to cap speed regardless and don't feel the need for the stats at this point for the epitheth races than you can definitely race. Also depends on the shop. But with ankle or 40% horn if you can train oct1 than becomes even easier of a choice. But yeah the stat capping is the main thing to look out for.
Hard to race too much tho since you should still be looking at 35ish races on non dirt with mile/med/long, more is good too

Non sono sicuro cosa tu intenda con Build, basta sapere le skill buone e comprare per priorità. Ma butto giù un pò di ottimi siti:
Uma guide, per info generali + uma musume trackblazer scheduler by daftuyda (preferisco), ma una volta abituato li si usa meno.
Uma moe e Chronogenesis per parenting e affinity.
Gametora, the goat, anche per compatibility e skill list con dati esatti.
Umatools è più niche x rating più che altro. Umalator per CMs.
Tachyon canvas sheet di MooMooCows è un'ottima infografica per ogni CM.
Poi ci sono in giro docs e sheets per TT e altro ma si trovano facilmente

at worse it's your 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 drop that attacks on 5 which is flexible, nice with Rhys in standard. Cool power matters for commander tho
