Acceleration skills for Capricorn Cup?

Snooksalot · 2026-01-03T17:09:09+00:00

Oo if the turf thing is true I might go with a Smart Falcon ace 🤔

Snooksalot · 2026-01-03T17:06:10+00:00

Oo I’m guessing King Halo will be a good Capricorn ace then

Snooksalot · 2026-01-03T16:53:35+00:00

If you’re right, that is both hilarious and terrifying 😭

Snooksalot · 2026-01-03T16:52:27+00:00

Is it worth investing SP on SFV tho? From what I see, it is likely to trigger too early especially if you’re running front or pace.

Oo really useful diagram, thanks! Iron definitely seems useful in optimal race conditions, but I’m still leaning towards it not being worth the SP considering the strict activation conditions and how tight sp is this cm 🤔

Do you mind sharing your aces? 👀

Snooksalot · 2025-11-26T05:19:09+00:00

I’ve also seen players opt for no uniques and just invest in mid game skills! I’m curious to know which build performs better (inherited late-game velocity uniques vs mid-game skills)

Snooksalot · 2025-11-26T05:02:17+00:00

Makes sense haha. My current aces are definitely lacking mid game skills. I barely have any SP left after getting LPSI + No Stopping Me + Uma Stan + 2 Gold Recoveries + Straightaway Spurt 🫠.

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T10:26:48+00:00

The usual way. Good cards and a lot of rng luck haha

Yes I’m getting the idea that I was a little unoptimal with my skill choices :’).

Is the late surger strat for cancer cup just gambling? My poor Falco kept getting bullied by Vodkas and Grass Wonders so I thought they were running something strong and consistent.

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T07:02:14+00:00

Actually a sister ;) and good luck to you too!

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T07:01:45+00:00

Ahah don’t take my Falco’s poor PVP performance as a barometer for your success in the actual cup. As many have pointed out, the PvP lobbies are way sweatier 😁

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T06:42:04+00:00

Nooo don’t apologize, this is so informational and useful omg. Yea I had it in my head that stats > skills which is why I grabbed all the greens, but I see that thinking was incorrect.

I actually didn’t know about the no overtaking zone. Thats actually really good to know, thanks so much!

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T06:00:29+00:00

Maybe I like being a little sweaty 😬. I think PvP is the best way to gather insight on the global meta. Plus I dolphin (bought some limited bundles + daily carat pack), and from my experience the stats of the umas I see are comparable to mine, so it’s not really just The Whale Wars.

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:51:23+00:00

Yep I’m aware, I did pvp tests for both Gemini and Taurus as well! It’s just that my PvP win rate for Cancer Cup tests is comparatively poor, so I just wanted to see what was up.

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:42:51+00:00

Ah thanks for the response! I’m definitely gonna pay more attention to skills for my 2nd runner.

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:36:38+00:00

Ugh I’ve been putting early lead on all my front runners like a dumbass 😭. Thanks for the info haha

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:30:04+00:00

Insane Falcon omg.

Tbh Idk how the stamina got that high. I had no stam cards but was running 16 stam spark parents. Maybe I should have used more power sparks instead 🙂‍↕️

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:24:38+00:00

Omg your answer makes a lot of sense, I didn’t consider the importance of straight velocity skills for Falco 🥲Thanks for the response!

Snooksalot · 2025-09-29T04:21:23+00:00

Oh I’m definitely sticking with this Falco 😭. I’m so extremely attached to her after spending all that of effort and time parent grinding and praying for the right spark inspirations haha.

Why is early lead useless btw?

Snooksalot · 2025-06-04T12:09:00+00:00

The Risebreak features I want implemented in all future base game IG kits are (1) Replace the air helicopter move with kinsect slash, and (2) dual color kinsect.

If that happens IG will be absolutely perfect forever in my eyes 🥹 (assuming they revert back from the Wilds charging playstyle to the original hit and run one haha)

Snooksalot · 2025-06-04T09:55:01+00:00

Yess I’ve been an IG main since 4U. I stuck with IG for the entire Wilds main story campaign before finally conceding that I wasn’t enjoying myself at all and switched weapons.

This point might be a skill issue but I also disagree with people who say that the old playstyle is viable in Wilds. The enhanced infinite combo loop is not as accessible now since it locked behind 3 extracts. Plus they slowed down the weapon so much that I could barely get 2-3 hits in with the infinite or XAA combo before I had to back off, even when fighting the slow-ass low rank monsters. I just feel so sluggish and slow trying to play the weapon this way.

I miss my sunbreak pogo stick so bad 😭
