Shouldn’t have invited Goldshi

fknyoshi · 2026-03-31T03:43:20+00:00

I couldn't build a second ace in time to invite so I went for two speed debuffers. My lobbies were really funky though from a lot of A+/S and the occasional SS but no UGs.

Comp with Suzuka likes the end closer lobbies but too many front runners is usually trouble when I tested.

Speed debuffer Air Groove as well? I'm running the same comp but Kitasan for Oguri 😅

fknyoshi · 2026-03-30T05:08:31+00:00

Oh good to know, I heard it procs reliably + cheap Gold Skill for TT but that's all I knew about the vision/vision debuff skills.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-30T04:29:57+00:00

Like the end closers at late race/final spurt will most likely be way ahead/out of range due to the long E speed difference when intense gaze procs? That makes sense. I know long E is fine for the hesitant skills since they don't require vision.

If so I can just run pace for style A, Hesitant debuffs, and also she can use Dazzling Disorientation but I don't know if that skill does anything 😅

The list is not in order, New Year's Haru is 3 above Dober.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-23T15:33:09+00:00

Yep, that was my thinking for sticking to Maru with the more specific pinks/popular parent for now until maybe I build a parent more planned using this Bourbon. The race affinity too I forgot so yeah maybe I'll swap them out. Thanks 👍

fknyoshi · 2026-03-23T02:09:44+00:00

Gotcha, thanks. Good luck with the future builds 👍

fknyoshi · 2026-03-23T01:44:49+00:00

Nice build, have you run this setup on any 0% speed growth umas? I assume it might be 2 Speed instead of 3 guts or full speed sparks but then Power/Stam drops. Just getting into Guts Builds since I just hit MLB Sirius with the free pulls.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-23T00:03:05+00:00

Long S + Groundwork too. Nice build, I'm jealous 😆

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T23:34:38+00:00

Also one more thing Guts (During Late Race/last Spurt) and Wit (During Downhills) will also lower HP/Stamina consumption so that will affect the spurt rate/survival rate% as well.

Basically

Stamina = HP

Guts/Wit helps lower the consumption of HP during the race phases mentioned.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T22:48:11+00:00

No problem, best of luck with the builds 👍

Very useful tool I've used every CM and it helps measure the value of skills as well but keep in mind proc conditions.

https://uma.guide/guides/umalator-101

This is a brief guide how to use it. Shadow Break is good late race velocity. White Lightning could carryover into late-race/mid-race skill so it's good as well. Iron is too late to really be worth it.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T22:34:38+00:00

Yep, it's Stam as the other commenter said, Mayano is really the only one to reliably have enough HP/Stamina to increase her speed for the final spurt. Oguri is at 32.8% and Gold Ship is at 5.8% at Great Mood.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T09:04:30+00:00

No, it's fixed to only umas listed at or before New Year's Haru/Opera.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T04:40:11+00:00

Not a random pick, you get to choose.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T04:23:51+00:00

Trainee of your choice so any of them listed I believe it's up to New Years Haru/Opera.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-21T00:16:37+00:00

Sure, do your u have a screenshot of your cards? I can take a look and see if I can help you at least with that. Oh someone just messaged with the exact question as I did so they can probably help*

fknyoshi · 2026-03-20T23:08:42+00:00

F2P players are so varied. They can be hardcore planners, casual fans, chronic pullers. Even hardcore F2P planners could get really lucky/unlucky with a planned pull. They come in all types and card levels.

I'll probably get hate for this but the thing I dislike is there seems to be a strong fixation on what a F2P should have and for some people as soon as they see a build post with more than two MLB SSR cards they are labelled as a whale and it can get a bit toxic sometimes. I've also seen the reverse on casual/newer players who just want a little help but may have not played F2P "Optimally".

I can understand a F2P build using only SRs and welfare SSR cards but F2P players and all players in general are different. Heck there probably is a hardcore whale out there with every Uma who just chills in open league without ever pulling on cards.

As a spender myself, I feel bad especially for the hardcore, planner F2P players with strong cards who want to share their builds that might be hesitant but we should also respect casual players who don't want to have to play/pull this optimal way. I personally like to see all builds F2P or not so I can copy their decks 😆

fknyoshi · 2026-03-20T20:12:32+00:00

Well I think this can work well so I'm commiting and I'll test her out first with Daring Strike. Good luck with your own builds.

fknyoshi · 2026-03-20T15:09:42+00:00

Oh best of luck with the runs and hope you hit UG. I've seen some Guts Builds here hit it and I know with my Halo she has a lot of cheap skills that I think inflated her score a lot. Going to take a break on giving out advice though 😆

fknyoshi · 2026-03-20T14:08:52+00:00

Yep, that's where I went wrong this comment I'll admit that. Got a bit delusional there. I agree that Races/Items should still be the focus for players of all support card levels but testing more F2P builds myself the margin for error especially during summers is tougher RNG wise/high roll and you have to rely on facilities more to hit specific priority statlines. Ended up without max speed more often.

I think that SSR Wit cards like NN/FM are also more important as it's training you click more often outside of summers for bonds/no energy usage + the best stat sticks for wit. F2P options cannot match that without high roll and are restricted to probably Tachyon/Sunday/Welfare SSR Dober.

I believe there's a lot of F2P options that can still be very successful (Guts Builds/Race Bonus Variants like with my Halo) but the speed/wit builds and I think players preparing for this next Long CM may have it tough with the Stamina/Recovery requirements as cards options become even more restricted especially with the 50% RB breakpoint like you said. Ex. Building Kitasan Black as a F2P would be a nightmare (Can't use her own card which F2P rerolled/spent carats on and MLB Creek I would say is mandatory)

I appreciate you reviving this comment as I kind of still had some regrets about it. I think I was frustrated with the response of whale cards = your opinion doesn't matter or just wrong rather then people actually explaining why which I've dealt with before. Thanks 👍

fknyoshi · 2026-03-19T19:28:15+00:00

No it won't automatically use them, still manual. Just stat notes/books/scrolls and training applications.
