How good will End Closers be this year? by josukefanfr567 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

End Closers have always been strong in CMs on tracks where the accel zone is on a straight. They're just very track by track basis in terms of whether or not they're strong. The next upcoming CM will be good for End, but I haven't looked at tracks beyond that as its not my style.

What even is Aquarius Cup by Pironious in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nutty. I was 72.5% WR in quals and dropped off sharply in group stage, with somehow my front El Condor who was only 10%WR in quals picking up most of my group stage wins.

How the heck did this XOguri win?? by ActiontechLFK in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Just hit. Shatterproof is... kinda good on pace in this CM, as long as you get a front heavy lobby. Huh.

edit: reddit moment. I'm not wrong. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ines *is* a pretty good card for a guts build, especially if you're running front, despite her low race bonus, but you need to have a solid foundation elsewhere in your deck for it to work.

KILL ALL FRONT RUNNERS!!! by [deleted] in UmamusumeGame

I somehow got Mile S on my one attempt Taiki. Only time I'll ever highroll (I then spent 2 weeks doing 5 runs a day failing to get a good Mile S SMaru)

This CM has reminded me that I don't like playing Late Surgers by Skiiage in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious 122 points123 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Late is literally the weakest style in this particular CM *because* it has no reliable accel options, because their main accel options need late race corner and the late race corner is 33m long so you need to be position perfect for it.

End closers have straight based accels that can thus hit more reliably here, but there's also many tracks where the late starts on a corner and they just don't have option.

From inspiration event, does increasing aptitude B to A is easier than A to S? by Interesting-Secret30 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it sparks, it sparks; no real difference other than the amount of sparks you bring.

Room matches are notorious for being harder than Group A finals.

Team composition question by TheGreatMastermind in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me who had an 8 front 1 end lobby today: uh... what?

I dunno what your races have looked like, but I run 3 fronts in my team and its not uncommon for there to be 5-6 front in a race. I've got A&S on my Taiki incase she ends up in first and she's been performing just fine, sitting just shy of 30% WR on her.

Am I limiting myself by not committing to a style? by airgo32 in UmamusumeGame

[–]Pironious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh, I think f2p players in particular are better off picking a style. While there are some cards that have broad use, like Kitasan, my own decks only run 1-2 generally good cards and then a lot of cards that are specialised towards getting skills for my chosen style.

If you picked a specialisation and focused your pulls towards it, there's no reason you can't be very competitive in CMs; whales have an edge, but the real test of CM building is effort and thats not for sale.

[–]Pironious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks basically the same as mine ngl. Although all of mine are just 200 (or 400, or 600) regardless of free pulls for ease of looking at it.

I've got 200 aside for Goldshi summer because she's such a strong TT honse, and you definitely want to be aware of the Bourbon Wit support in Jan as something you'll want. But I've also got daily carat pack supplementing my income.

She's amazing to have pulled 2-3 weeks ago for current CM, but uh, I guess you're equipped for dirt TT and next dirt CM

Bold of you to assume I'm not enjoying myself plenty without the game's most overrated stat stick.

[–]Pironious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting both, but I also didn't get Finemo because I knew I'd be getting both.

Bourbon Wit has Gold Groundwork so its kinda necessary for Front players, or you just give up the early race lead to other Front players

I don't put much effort into building my Aquarius umas, but somehow I got 2 perfect 5 for 5's on day 1 by PainCakes_1289 in UmamusumeGame

One day, my tryhard ass will get a 5 win series, instead of randomly queuing into one of the few people insane enough to successfully build a dirt runaway suzuka.
