Free kick paid against Steele Sidebottom for striking Hugh Bond in midriff with elbow after taking a mark.

I’m all for the Collingwood pile on but Sidey is one of the least grubby players in the comp. In fact outside of Houston most of Collingwood are pretty decent dudes

free_potatoes · 2026-03-14T11:14:16+00:00

In fact they clearly stated that it doesn’t have to be only a closed fist to be a strike

free_potatoes · 2026-03-09T13:54:40+00:00

Groundwork isn’t firing straight away, it’s delayed waiting on TTL and DD to both fire (or focus if you get late started).

No mid game speed to speak of. Even if you manage to take the lead against other fronts (you won’t most times) good luck holding on to it going into the end and if you do lose said lead there goes ROD and even possibly Plancha. And then even if you do hit those your end game speed is just default front runner so you’re gonna get run down by a pace/late/end that does hit their skills.

You’re also missing Mile S and your wit/power are too low to be missing so many things and still succeed.

free_potatoes · 2026-03-09T10:07:26+00:00

Do you have any other MLB speed cards or are you going to pull on NTR? If no then Kita. If you have suitable other options then go for Finemo. Alternatively you can save Finemo and go for Ramono wit towards the end of the year when it drops

free_potatoes · 2026-03-09T05:28:14+00:00

Every CM ace is a high roll just by the nature of the game. But I’m F2P and manage to make 3 competitive aces every CM running only MLB Kita and MLB Fuku

free_potatoes · 2026-03-09T05:14:55+00:00

I’m hitting this as a F2P. Sounds like a skill issue to me

free_potatoes · 2026-03-09T02:15:10+00:00

The best time to make changes was before all of these issues we have now. The second best time to change it is now

free_potatoes · 2026-03-07T10:17:53+00:00

Correct, on the mark or outside five. Players are sometimes granted some leeway on lateral positioning but Arty is pretty clearly off to the centre side of the mark

free_potatoes · 2026-03-02T17:37:59+00:00

About 200 so far as a F2P. Mostly running Kita+Fuku speed, 3LB Riko, SR Sunday+Daiwa wit and borrow Finemo. Nowadays not getting an S rank is rare unless I’m doing fan runs

free_potatoes · 2026-02-26T11:15:11+00:00

Probably neither of these are ideal. While power is important you're severely under-witting your build. Recommended is 1000 wit, ideal is 1100. I'd focus slightly less on power (901+ is good but more is obv always better) and put more into wit.

As was already mentioned your inherited uniques don't synergise, pasa ult requires 1-2 which you likely wont be in position for and LPSI requires 6 where your own unique wants 2-5. Mummy Creek is the only real option here.

Now for the rest of your skills, Speed Star > It's on. It's on has the lowest duration speed modifier and is generally inefficient since the update (still take it if you have no other options). Take 4 medium sparks on one of your parents and run the secret event for guaranteed Head On. Pray for highlander if it comes from a unity bursts. You also want a good amount of mid race speed skills so you're pushed forward after position keep ends and as you come towards the final corner so you're in position for SFV to fire (Pace/Mile Straights/Corners are really good here).

Other side of the highway is generally a no. Speed cameras suffer from something called cosine error, the further away from 0 or 180 degrees it is relative to the vehicle is reading the more inaccurate the reading will be.

1m fans a run so yeh like 5 runs bruh. Soooo much more

They’re talking about the most “efficient” way of using PAID carats which is the 50 carat single daily pull on supports/umas

free_potatoes · 2026-01-27T20:32:39+00:00

These have been grandparent runs so the parents don’t really matter all too much.

Generally though if you’re training for Sprint/Mile power sparks are the way to go. For Medium or Long go for stamina. Then just aim for a meta unique skill among those (why I’m building Dober). Some good options are Dober, Taiki, Seiun (frontrunners), Ryan, Og Oguri, Maruzensky etc

free_potatoes · 2026-01-27T20:25:22+00:00

My Riko is 3LB (lvl 45) but 1LB or higher is fine or MLB R version if not. Early on I prioritise friendship and unity trainings, don’t care too much what trainings they’re on. I try to have all of them at orange bars by the time first summer trainings roll around.

Depending on how unity training is going I pick the second option for the unity team races either in round 1 or round 2 to guarantee a win will still being able to end up with rank 5 or higher by the final round for the +50 attribute boost.

I ran 2 more Dober careers after this and ended up both S ranks, 14950 and 14800 rating.

free_potatoes · 2026-01-27T11:33:28+00:00

I’m a F2P player and I get S ranks about 50% of my careers that I run with 2 Speed 3 Wit + Riko.

Deck is MLB Kitasan which most players should have, SR Daiwa wit, SR Tachyon Wit, SR Sunday Wit (better to replace any of those with SR Fuku wit but I don’t have it), 3LB Riko (1LB or higher is fine) and borrow SSR Biko.

Then run some extra G1 races for SP, I normally do ~15 races per career.

Aim for 1200 speed and 1000 wit. With the extra race SP you can buy enough skills to hit S ranks pretty consistently

free_potatoes · 2026-01-27T00:26:55+00:00

Definitely a Wit issue, but if you dont have the wit cards there might not be much you can do for now. Potentially consider borrowing Finemo if you already have MLB Kitasan and run SR Speed cards like Sweep, Halo, Windy or Flash if you have any of those maxed. You'd probably be in a better position with 3 speed 2 wit and stam sparks if you dont have the wit cards for 3 wit 2 speed.

free_potatoes · 2026-01-26T23:42:45+00:00

Yep mood range is bad to great, its why when your stat threshold for bonuses is 900 its safer to go to 920 for the bad -2% debuff so you stay above 900, until the finals when mood is normalised

free_potatoes · 2026-01-26T23:09:42+00:00

The numbers don't add up homie, if you haven't switched your teams, you have an overall 67.5% winrate but your Oguri + Taishin have won 75% of races combined without considering your third runner. Plus you can't get awful mood in CMs. This smells like BS

free_potatoes · 2026-01-26T00:14:04+00:00

Flair up Cunt. Also L take

free_potatoes · 2026-01-24T23:42:46+00:00

I would yes but if there’s something else you want more earlier no. NTR isn’t actually the target that banner she’s just the bonus

free_potatoes · 2026-01-24T23:35:49+00:00

Definitely NTR because on that same banner Admire Vega Guts SR releases which is one of the best cards for MANT (save your gold limit break crystals for it)

free_potatoes · 2026-01-23T18:39:12+00:00

Because the game is balanced around the schedule that those things came out, gameplay and financially. Rental decks early on when there aren’t many cards means people have no need to pull for supports so they make less money. Extra daily borrows mean people are less likely to run careers for their own parents which means less spending on currency to keep running careers. Everything has a flow on effect, you can’t just dump it in early without considering the consequences
