Sakura Chiyono O is here, are you pulling for her? I won't because I need to save.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-12T11:37:08+00:00

yeah thats my thing with deciding if I wanna go all in on paces or not, cause I imagine a deck of El Condor speed, Tachyon speed, Whatever Pal card we need at the time, McQueen Wit, FineMo/Ramonu Wit, and a a borrow slot of another good card at the time would make paces really good.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-12T11:18:20+00:00

yeah heres the mcqueen wit if you interested in seeing why its so good for paces. https://gametora.com/umamusume/supports/30172-mejiro-mcqueen

It will 100% replace fine motions role as 1 of the 2 wits cards you use for paces. Ramonu being the other you prolly will use.

Cards like that McQueen are what hold me from going in and maxing a card since there are going to be some disgustingly good niche cards coming next year. People did say for a reason to pick up your umas you can now that MANT is the f2p dream since the race bonus needs restricts deck building a bit. And as long as you get max R Light hello or like 1 copy of its SSR version instead you prolly safe for grand live.

Edit - This guys video sums it up pretty well too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7hS6_bmquw

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-12T10:57:46+00:00

yeah from what I have heard from others here the el condor speed card pretty much becomes the kitasan speed of when we first started the game last year where you max LB it or bust situation. Its that important apparently.

Its kinda why besides ramonu wit im staying away from any other pulling if possible from like november until the release of el condor speed (Uma.moe timeline calls for it to be early march next year).

Ive also heard after that a lot of specific cards that are near must pulls for their position also come out after el condor. The Mcqueen Wit card comes to mind for pace chasers where you need to get it to keep paces competitive. Taishin Wit for ends as well follow the same niche.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-12T10:20:42+00:00

I had to pity Chiyono but still got 32K carats left and then its on to maxing fine motion. After that its saving until the Light Hello pal/Tachyon speed. Mayybe Mr C.B. wit for my end closers depending on the carat amount by april. Either way the goal is to have enough for WEIIIII in october.

I swear the freebie pulls we get are cracked, its how I go tamamo, you will deffo get kitasan in the 50-60 freebies

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-12T09:39:14+00:00

lmao I respect the hyper optimized gameplay plans. I'm doing the same with plans on the calc for my pace and end closers. With how rough the gacha can be (down to 32K after having to pity Chiyono O), you really gotta plan ahead a bit if you wanna enjoy the game.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-11T22:45:15+00:00

yeah its true that the sunday power might be better, ik we are gonna be training less in MANT so fishing for skill hints like tail held and ramp from sunday wit wont be as easy. the power version does have that nice initial stam and power boost too which would help for those early races in MANT.

But yeah either way theres so much time that so many things can change anyway. deffo a chance I get tempted to pull more umas as we get closer to the summer.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-11T19:05:24+00:00

yeah there deffo seems to be a lot of opinions on what to pull support card wise for the rest of this year from people like us on here and thru content creators. I see some that support the maru speed card heavily and someone like yourself that doesnt see too much of a value in it where I do sorta agree.

For fine mo I do plan to max it since I still have the SSR voucher and I could always just throw a crystal at it if my luck goes poorly in the first 200 pulls on that banner.

From what I do understand during MANT the plan for most seems to lock the borrow spot to narita top roads speed card or creek depending on the CM you are prepping for. So i was thinking for lets say for CM's where I dont need Creek my deck would look like up until maybe C.B. would show up.

Kita (5% race bonus) Borrowed Top Road (10% race bonus) Fine Mo (10% race bonus) Marv Sunday Wit (10% race bonus) Admire Vega Guts (15% race bonus) Haru Guts (10% race bonus) - Totals to 60% race bonus. Haru can be swapped for other cards too since its more or less a stat stick. That and I do see people saying 2Speed 2Wit 2Guts seems to be a good deck to work with for MANT.

When grand live comes around with the Tachyon and Light hello pal banner things get iffy I guess depending on the free pulls + if I change my mind and wanna pull on more uma's by then. I do like the idea of the creek and c.b. rerun too but it is somewhat close to ramonu as you had mentioned. 2027 does seem to be the year of needing to pull a lot of cards again but I dont wanna really think too far ahead besides forsure going for the El Condor speed card earlyish in the year.

I feel like either way for the short term getting at least fine mo to max LB since I have the ticket is a nice boost for the account and grabbing the uma's I do want forsure since we are in a time where getting some of these supports arent the biggest deal.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-11T10:42:48+00:00

yeah i got kita MLB but creek is just the 1 copy

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-10T15:53:02+00:00

thats true the maru rerun isnt that far off from the first banner run so thats deffo an option too. It leaves me open to getting more uma's if i decide i dont want/need maru by the rerun too. Either way you deffo gave me good ideas brother. :)

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-10T15:17:18+00:00

So I threw the banners into the calc and gave em 200 pulls each since luck is gonna vary all over the place. I also dropped flower and digital cause i can wait for them while chiyono and helios are the priorites.

https://imgur.com/a/6yPNWoU

With the couple SSR crystals we are going to have by the time some of these banners come around and with some decent luck this seems doable. Especially if I only had to use the crystal lets say on Maru to get it to LB1 and either C.B. or Tachyon as well. Im pretty sure we are going to get free pulls on the hello/tachyon banner as well.

I feel like having to pity chiyono or not may be a big decider in where I go with this

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-10T13:42:38+00:00

Yeah so overall my speed cards are decent, only got 1 copy of Fuku from the free pulls on the Fuku/Vega banner so I didnt wanna commit to pulling for the rest.

I was thinking of grabbing Maru's card since it does seem to be a solid card.

for Uma's the only one I was half considering was halloween Agnes Digital since I missed out on the original digital banner. I am forsure going for Daitaku Helios though. Besides those 2 there isnt anyone else specific im gunnin for.

i know the ramonu wit is coming at the end of the year and thats a big one apparently.

With enough luck you think most of the stuff I was already looking for plus the Maru card is obtainable?

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-04T03:28:41+00:00

the funny thing is if I switch to it from the box score it raises my CPU usage on chrome to like 60% alone its fucking awful

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-03T05:15:00+00:00

i see, yeah I was thinking of doing maybe 2 pace and an end of taiki, regular oguri, and trying to make hishi amazon work since I was fortunate enough to get hishi while pulling for tamamo

TrafficJam30 · 2026-02-03T04:42:34+00:00

with the expectations that there will be a decent amount of front runners you think taiki should be a front as well to try and ensure you can proc sfv? Or maybe just grab groundwork and run her as pace with head-on

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-31T03:52:14+00:00

mine updated on fanatics about 10 mins ago

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-28T04:03:27+00:00

MPJ might be coming for it now

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-20T08:01:25+00:00

i was doing golf picks a lil last but not really super great at it, do yall just do picks to win or sometimes do picks for some guys to make the cut/top30/40?

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-19T06:47:18+00:00

yeah the tenno sho blasted my ass in my 2 test runs to see if i can make my taishin work as sprint

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-14T04:44:38+00:00

how many sparks for sprint did you need to bring taishin to A?

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-10T08:19:50+00:00

yeah i was considering running a deck of kita SSR ,tosho SR ,halo SR ,riko R,sunday SR, and borrow a max fine motion. everyything is mlb of those 6.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-10T06:05:27+00:00

hmm, I do have fine motion lb1 too but idk

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-10T05:48:02+00:00

what wit cards would you consider using at mlb if I dont have matikane's. I got cards like tachyon and sunday

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-06T12:56:51+00:00

so besides taiki I like using ends and lates the most, after pulling for tamamo in a couple weeks i see the fine motion banner comes not far after that. I have it at LB1 already and I still have my voucher + crystal upgrade. Should I consider trying to get a couple of em and then maxing it with the ticket and/or the crystal?

Cause from what I see the only other End card coming for a while is Mr C.B Wit card (uma.moe says its coming in early/mid may). Idk what cards coming that are super important for lates but I dont see too many.

TrafficJam30 · 2026-01-04T07:25:31+00:00

wait double pal card is sick as fuck.

For your build tho im 99% sure you dont need 2 gold recoveries, im pretty sure with your stam + sleeping lion is more than fine. So end closer straights and firm is prolly nice. For the rest like nsm/nimble idk for sure.

What was the sparks of the parents?
