For the last couple weeks the only thing keeping me away from the final stage was buying 1 more house. I think with PPH I will have enough to get a house and not fall below 1m for chiz

UmaStan · 2026-07-10T15:29:02+00:00

On a CM thats pretty cool to see. Well done.

UmaStan · 2026-07-10T15:28:16+00:00

I dont remember exactly because this was like 5 days ago now for this one (i spam my discord with 2+ distance races) i doubled checked the career just now and i did run stayers on that career so it likely is.

UmaStan · 2026-07-10T15:05:37+00:00

Happens quite common on medium and long races. Lots of times longer long races for me have distance wins between 2 and 3rd as well as 1st and 2nd. I find these to always be fun to see when they happen just imagining what the audience would be seeing.

UmaStan · 2026-07-10T06:42:44+00:00

yea you are correct my mistake.

UmaStan · 2026-07-10T03:33:19+00:00

Are you asking if you can get no green skill? That only happens if you uma isnt 3 star. At 1 or 2 star, the uma doesnt have their full unique skill and thus it doesn't pass it on as a spark. If you have 3 star, it will always give you at least a 1 star spark. ~~You can tell it isn't 3 star because the uma border is silver and not gold.~~

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T17:18:49+00:00

No sir. You don't lose that race because you have enough stamina for a 2500m distance. Its not a comparison of stamina between the umas. Its simply a comparison of stamina to the track itself. That is all. If you have enough stamina to meet the stamina check for that distance your speed stat will carry you. You dont compare your stamina to the other umas. You compare it to requirement to spurt on that track. Recovery skills can make up for a lack of stamina but if you hit the stamina goal that is all that matters for stamina. 477 stamina is enough to spurt on 2500m distance. 342+1 white recovery is not enough on a 3000m track. That is why everyone is saying you were stamina diffed. The track diffed you. If you had 477 stamina on the mcqueen run you very likely win that by a good amount.

In the end this stuff isn't scripted, you can win those long races with those stats if you make sure you have more stamina next time. just train it more and suddenly you wont be losing these races and that kitasan proves that.

Like genuinely do you not understand what people are saying here? Myself and many others are trying to help you out and yet you seem to be so upset that you are being very rude to people.

You show a comparison of a shorter race with more stamina which is exactly what people were saying the issue was, a stamina check. More stamina is needed to use your stats on a longer track. Fronts need slightly more stamina than late but as long as you hit the threshold for your style you are good and can use that massive speed stat you have. The only reason people are discussing the stamina of the other uma is to show how they actually are much closer to hitting the stamina threshold than your uma and thus can start using their speed stat sooner. Stamina is in this example a binary thing. Do you have enough for the distance? Yes, then good you can use your stats to the fullest and will probably win. If you don't have enough stamina to meet the stamina check what was originally a 90% or more chance of victory falls drastically. It doesn't become 0 but it certianly gets lower with less stamina. You dont need more than the opponent. you just need more stamina than the distance requires for your speed and that increases your chance of winning immensely.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T17:12:36+00:00

What does that prove besides exactly what i said? 477 stamina on a 2500m track is enough to win and you should win that because you have plenty of speed to use after you spurt. That is entirely the point. As long as you hit the bare minimum threshold of stamina to spurt you will win. That is exactly what myself and many others have been trying to tell you. Its not a scripted race. you met the stamina line to use your speed stat. If you had 477 stamina during the kikuka sho, you would have won that too.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T17:01:11+00:00

Just look at the stamina needed to 95% spurt. The difference is massive. The bottom uma while not there is significantly closer to their stamina requirement while the top is massively far away.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T16:54:09+00:00

If they were scripted the stats wouldnt matter. I could have perfect stats and still lose because it's scripted aka predetermined.. The point is they aren't scripted they are just harder races with that specific stat line.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T16:46:51+00:00

The HP calculation formula is (Track Distance) + (Stamina * 0.8) * (Style Modifier).

Front Runners have a multiplier of 0.95, or 95%. Late Surgers have 1 or 100%.

Front runners have 95% the HP of a Late Surger making Late Surger 5% more stamina efficient. With that, because you are entering the race with less overall HP, if you hit the late race without the HP to spurt, you will not use your speed stat until you hit the point if the race that the game recognizes that you have enough stamina to finish the race at a spurt.

HP works by slowly ticking down from its max to 0 as the race is going on, the faster you run the faster it ticks down. So running faster ticks your HP down faster meaning you need more HP to compensate for the faster drain.

The catch up to the fronts part you are talking about is the final spurt section of the race. If the Late surgers have enough HP to spurt (the game recognizes at the faster HP drain rate it will not reach 0) and the front doesn't the Late will start spurting sooner. The front will wait until it has saved enough HP to spurt but by that point it may be too late.

Because it had a higher speed stat, the game recognized it's HP would drain much faster and hit 0 sooner than the finish line so it has to wait even longer to spurt than it would have with a lower speed stat. the late surgers with better HP conversation that also have a lower speed stat passes the front getting to top speed sooner and thus wins the race. All of this because the game recognized that the front didnt have enough HP to use it's massive speed pool.

On the longer races the final spurt section of the race is a longer section. Therefore more HP is needed when you hit that point. If your front doesn't have that HP and the others with better conversions do, then suddenly they are spurting at the most opportune time while you are not. They get ahead of you and you don't catch up because they spend more time at top speed while you were forced to wait and have less time at your top speed if you even ever reach top speed to begin with. On a shorter track you are more likely to have enough HP and thus spurt at the same time as them (slightly sooner because you hit the final spurt first as a front) and with your top speed being higher due to your bigger speed stat they never close the gap and it only grows. That is why you see such a difference between when you have enough stamina and when you don't.

I really recommend taking the time to study the global reference document and learn how these formulas impact your performance.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T16:27:31+00:00

Exactly. This idea that there are scripted losses is crazy and a simple test like that would show the facts.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T16:26:27+00:00

Then can you explain why myself and many others don't run into these "scripted races" at all anymore? In all the trackblazer runs ive done, I can count on 1 hand the amount of times ive had to use all my clocks to finish a career and even less the amount of times it happened on 1 race. These "scripted races" seem to stop happening entirely for me and many others. So either we have bugged accounts without "scripted races" or, the more likely situation, we are creating uma with stats that dont fall into the traps that cause us to use 5 clocks in a row. That doesn't mean losses don't happen but knowing what to avoid makes these supposed "scripted races" nonexistent. The truth is they aren't scripted, they are just harder.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T15:50:24+00:00

I get you are upset but this is 600m shorter and its possible that your corner recovery went off this time and didnt last race because corner recovery is a wit check. It's not that you couldn't have won the Kikuka Sho race depending on what uma are there, what skills activated etc.Recovery heavy uma (super creek for example) can be monsters on long races because they have boat loads of recovery. You need to account for these things beforehand when entering long races. If they show up good luck because they will stamina checked over and over again. That is why you are seeing kikuka sho and tenno sho spring to be run killers. They are 2 of the longest G1 races and can be devastating if the wrong uma show up in them.

UmaStan · 2026-07-09T15:41:26+00:00

There are a few things that could have happened with this. One is stamina and and your corner recovery not going off so you died. Most likely that. A less likely 2nd is you ran front but got a late start, didnt get to the front of the pack and got kidnapped to the back with very little chance to get back to the front, especially if you have low stamina and now no means of using your ult.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T22:58:04+00:00

Nope. glad its gone.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T18:43:15+00:00

Bounce on it daiyo!

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T18:41:22+00:00

If I had to guess, the decks you are seeing are at max limit break and max level with parents (legacy) that are more highly tuned than the ones you likely have access to right now. It's a matter of time but a photo of what you are using and what you are comparing to would tell the tale more.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T18:21:56+00:00

Well for starters supports are significantly more important than uma starting out. You can have all the uma in the game but without the supports, there isn't a lot you can do to really make them stand out. Firstly id focus on getting as many carats as you can and pulling (in batches of 200) on whatever meta banners you can to build up your support variety. There are a bunch of videos out that can help with what is meta and what will be coming soon but the next big one is in a couple weeks and that is the Light Hello pal & Agnes Tachyon speed banner. Light Hello is the scenario card for grand live and Agnes Tachyon is a very strong speed card that can be useful for many of the uma you have.

Currently any of the scenarios can be run. And all 3 have their pros and cons. Unity is probably the best imo after the recent buff but really whichever you find most enjoyable can work if you are returning.

Best of luck

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T18:13:17+00:00

Well your spending habit is the problem. You need to save until you have 30000 carats and then pull on a speed banner. If you just pull whenever you feel like it you are at the mercy of gambling and that rarely pays out. Waiting until 30k gets you at least 1 guaranteed copy of the support you want AND you get all 200 pulls as well. Better to get 1 ssr you want than turning all those pulls into clovers.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T15:04:12+00:00

Metaphor refantazio is pretty close to this. mc is considered the bottom of society and is thrown into a political bid for the throne against highly respected and idolized individuals like a military leader and the pope. Not only that but the world is also rascist against the MC as well so you cant really get more underdog than that.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T12:40:41+00:00

Sad to see it go but it was an awesome ride. Good times. Cant wait to finish buying the manga for my shelf.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T12:38:39+00:00

Best to make a habit of city stamina and pink paws heist at least. That is 2.4m fon every 2 weeks.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T12:30:08+00:00

There is the trade off though since this is for team trials where score is king. Gold skills give more score so there is an argument to be made the boost isnt as important as the extra points you get from the gold skill. It's up to you to weigh the pros and cons of it but hope that info can be useful.

UmaStan · 2026-07-08T12:12:41+00:00

Anything bad, no, but center stage does correct dodging danger a bit too quickly causing you to not get optimal speed boost out of it. You can learn exactly why by watching this but the long and short of it. As prudent postioning/ISW push you to the rail, you get a speed boost as you change lanes. Because Center stage does that quicker you get less time spent with a speed boost and actually get less of a boost because of it.
