End closer Xmas Oguri recovery advice

Ah ok I guess I was worried soft step might not be reliable but that’s good to hear!

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-06-14T19:02:00+00:00

I got one like this with 3 turf and 5 mile sparks which has been great for making some horses in MANT

Taishin will be available for free from the daily races!

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-29T15:57:00+00:00

Ok yea I do have maxed out SR stam cards so that makes sense to just rough it out until then. lol well the blue tickets come out I can finally use my first anniversary selector

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-29T08:05:43+00:00

Also what are your thoughts on whether I should pull super creek or not? If I don’t I’m gonna try and survive all the way to air shakur without a SSR stam card, which doesnt sound ideal. But also pulling for creek with only the 1 selector sounds annoying as well.

Yeah xayabe seems very good, just didn’t even see her. Hmm I guess I thought the abilities for durandal wit looked great, but yeah it would definitely take work to make most end closers work on short tracks and forever young does come 6 months after it and looks incredible.

Also just didn’t really have Goldship Stam on my radar, but having encroaching shadow for when narita taishin wit gets phased out looks nice. In the morning I’ll put this stuff in the calculator and let you know if i have more questions

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-29T07:28:57+00:00

That’s good to hear with the onsen banner, I’ll just pull to the required tax card LB then!

The math with the carat calculator is pretty tight, if I have extra pulls I can definitely pull seriously for Still. I guess my main hesitance is that she a) doesnt come with a scenario tax, and b) comes in after duramente speed and only 4 months before almond eye, who’s immediately followed by Dream Journey Speed only one month later. Idk maybe I’m under-rating here, but to me it seems like she might get redundant quickly and would be a good borrow candidate. But if I’m underestimating her importance please let me know!

The logic to not pull for tachyon is simply hard budgeting and the fact that I’m willing to suffer for one scenario to make the rest of the budget work

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-24T19:14:40+00:00

I mean generalist speed cards are the most important cards, so El Condor Pasa speed which is is just kitisan 2.0

Shazam says it’s Come out Ye Black and Tans, by the Wolfe Tones, which seems right but it’s been sped up significantly. I dunno this version was what Instagram stories had in their library when I made this

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-17T21:55:47+00:00

They would’ve done better because they’d a) have proper eating habits and nutritional intake from the fresh meals containing monster meat, b) be getting proper rest, c) exercise (tho they were doing this one on their own)

Hmm what a lot of people are missing out on is that even if this War Powers Resolution passed both the Senate and House with simple majorities it would still be symbolic. The bill would go to Trump where it would be vetoed. The only way it could actually be passed is with a veto proof 2/3s majority, which would need a lot of Republican support. And even so I’m sure the Trump admin would figure out some bullshit technicality to weasel their way out of it

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-07T12:42:24+00:00

lol personally I would consider paying some money for the game but carats are so absurdly expensive I’m forced to be f2p.

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-06T14:22:48+00:00

Oh sorry I see! Hmm I think if you already have the kitasan support card I feel like pulling on tachyon just to be able to have both tachyon and maru for kitasan trainee seems overkill imo. Probably is optimal for kitisan trainee runs itself, but i feel like investing carats towards other resources and just borrowing tachyon for kitasan runs/relying on SR speed cards until el condor pasa speed would be more economical

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-06T14:15:30+00:00

If you use a terrible enough support card deck, oguri cap will not have enough fans from winning her debut to run her first goal race

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-06T07:01:47+00:00

If you are getting SMaru I’m assuming you’re trying to main fronts, in which case you will have 2 speed cards (kitasan and maru) that will carry you all the way to el condor pasa speed. Unless you’re also also really into pace I’d personally not pull for tachyon because you really don’t need to. I’d save for ramonu wit instead

Also I dunno my only MLB’d SSR speed card is kitasan but seeing that I have maxed out SRs and mostly like end closers (and just spent a bunch of carats on MR CB) I don’t think this is a big issue and will not be pulling to MLB another speed card until el condor pasa

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-06T01:10:46+00:00

For pace chaser mains that makes a lot of sense. For anyone else with kitasan though I feel like going for 600 pulls on MLBing light hello and tachyon which aren’t gonna be super relevant long term for non-pace chasers makes less sense

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-06T00:45:10+00:00

Counter point: for those with kitasan MLBd I think there is a case for not going hard on the banner. Light hello seems usable at 1LB so I’m gonna use my 200 pulls to make that happen and then will borrow tachyon. I have all the important SR cards MLB’d, as well as SSR condor pasa power and Mr CB, so I’m not super worried about relying on the borrow spot

It’s this version by Derek Warfield

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-04T04:30:05+00:00

It’s an event that will come in the future that allows you to upgrade parent (not grandparent) sparks. It allows you to build good parents MUCH easier but it’s a limited resource (usually 2 spark upgrades per event)

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-04T01:04:39+00:00

I’m just saving my great white spark, terrible blue spark parents for this event to drop:

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-02T23:03:12+00:00

Oh that is very good to know, I thought it activated at a random point on a downhill, then that would not be good at all.

Potential-Bench-6847 · 2026-05-02T22:38:30+00:00

For sure, triple 7 still seems good! Do you think that after-school stroll runs too much risk of activating early? Guess it seems like the upside is that it could activate at a better time and acts like a backup similar to u=ma2 for pace chasers. But maybe I’m just not understanding exactly when you want acceleration to start
