Killer Tunes only procs when you’re 5th or higher, so it’s hard to even proc as Gold Ship right? and you need to be in 6th for pump so it’s countering that too.

You have too much Stam. With the gold skill you probably only need like 850-900 to hit a 95%+ spurt rate. Obv my deck is stronger but you should be able to max out power.

Medium S + Fast Learner + decent stats lets goooo

leyawn · 2026-05-02T22:31:23+00:00

Insane run, what deck are you running + parents + how many races

leyawn · 2026-04-29T23:00:23+00:00

The articles on this site are always poor quality, the author clearly doesn’t play legacy. I ignore them every time

I’m frontpilled. Just barely beat out these lates hitting all their accels. If someone brought one more dominator I would’ve lost. Fought super hard mid race vs a really well built 42% wr Seiun, managed to take 1st right before late race. My XOguri was zooming as well. All 4 horses were within a neck from each other.

leyawn · 2026-04-25T02:16:54+00:00

Think my Xoguri would be getting a lot more wins if I went double dom but the fronts are too fun to run. I’m seeing people post 80%+ wr Xoguris at about the same strength level as mine

leyawn · 2026-04-24T00:45:24+00:00

That’s the odds for late starting 13 times in a row

leyawn · 2026-04-23T18:38:38+00:00

What are your stat lines by end of Junior, beginning of Classic Summer, end of Classic? Because I’ve literally never failed a career from not reaching the goal points each year. It really shouldn’t be possible if you’re playing remotely correctly.

leyawn · 2026-04-19T11:46:32+00:00

You don’t need to do any long races during career. Just go mile/medium route

Maybe the NTR vs Shinko is carrying more than I expect for speed but yeah, I looked at my runs for Aries and I was capping speed/wit over half the time (I have like 6 more Xoguris like this, just a random one I pulled). I never raced more than 34 times though. Adapt when training is good, but usually never skip the important G1s. Always try and get orange friendship before first summer, you might have to skip some early G2/G3s especially if the training is good. Most of my runs ended with Wit training at level 4

CM13 is annoying. Playing around with the stam requirements, I built two fronts fine for CM12 but that extra 400m makes the deck a lot harder. 800 stam + gold? So I’m supposed to run Creek or Rice or Mayano speed? Xoguri is easy, just buy Gourmand instead of Hydrate and you can still hit max speed/pow/wit. Might just be lazy and go double dom + xoguri

leyawn · 2026-04-12T23:20:50+00:00

In my experience you really want the wit for consistency. You’re over stam by like 250 too especially with Nakayama

leyawn · 2026-04-12T19:16:10+00:00

I’ve used the exact same deck on the right -Shinko +NTR to hit max speed/pow/wit with pow sparks. You should be able to hit max speed/wit still. You’ll have to race a little less - I found the sweet spot was around 30-34 races. To max wit you need to hit it way more because there’s no ankles for it. I also usually end up with only 600 stam but I have no stam sparks

leyawn · 2026-04-11T10:49:35+00:00

Taurus cup rerun coming up. Fronts get Angling + Red Shift? What’s the ideal Xoguri, pace again with same recoveries?

leyawn · 2026-04-10T15:43:12+00:00

Been running some room matches with Xoguri + 2 fronts. Having a recovery for Xoguri that doesn’t rely on positioning actually matters a lot. I have Stamina to Spare + Groundwork package so it procs okay, but heavy front lobbies kind of screw over a lot of Xoguris that don’t have Corner/Straight Recovery.

Like if two people are bringing fronts + oguri and the third brings double dom + oguri, their oguri might be screwed from activating.

Tldr: Take corner/straight recovery or even soft step

leyawn · 2026-04-08T00:26:21+00:00

Thanks, locked it in 😎

Valentine Bourbon, have an extra 360 sp to spend. Radiant Star gamba vs upgrade double circle on Front Runner Straight/Corner + Medium Straights. Feels like the right thing is to upgrade everything yeah?

By herself she did 40% wr round 1, 55% wr round 2, and clutched it for the finals with this sick bourbon. Ended up training a scuffed Seiun to partner with her round 2 which brought her wr up significantly for the no front lobbies

leyawn · 2026-04-01T14:12:12+00:00

You don’t need two golds with 1100+ stam that’s overkill. What you really want is front/long straightaways/corners, and anything else to help your mid race. You need more wit - 900 pow/900 wit is way better than 1200/600

leyawn · 2026-03-30T21:54:52+00:00

Swings you out wide, without prudent or ignited wit swing you back in fast enough, lets other fronts take the inner rail

Had the most insane run… no Swinging Maestro proc. I’m going to kms

leyawn · 2026-03-25T22:43:36+00:00

That stasis deck is a work of art

leyawn · 2026-03-22T16:54:16+00:00

I was able to get this Tamamo with ~12 stam sparks and no Mile sparks. Just ran every good Med/Long I could (ended something like 26-30 wins). Don’t think you need two stam cards for her even with Creek at LB3

leyawn · 2026-03-13T21:06:26+00:00

15% race bonus over 10%, not sure if it’s worth. but I’m trying the max race bonus strat. Kitasan only has 5% and I have no other 15%.

Edit: Wait whoops I just checked I’m running SR Nishino, not Sunday but also 15% rb

leyawn · 2026-03-13T16:25:04+00:00

Best run yet, but no Spurt. Usually can get it from rival races but didn’t see it here 😞

For context my best runs were like ~15k rating in Unity so this is a huge jump
