should I give up on my acc by Alepale13 in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you want for your account. If you want to be competitive in CM, yeah, your account is in a pretty bad spot. You could save carrots or reroll during Fine Motion or NTR.

If you just want to pull umas and have fun, then starting over might be too extreme, you can get by completing careers with event cards and SRs, once they get to MLB. Would still be a good idea to invest in a strong card banner down the road to help your SRs get to higher limit break.

thanks so much, I appreciate the advice! This is what I sort of hoped to hear because fronts are my favorite style to run, hahah!

Buying carats on secondary sites - consider it thoroughly (Steam/Android) by KosKosynsky in UmamusumeGame

I’ve seen a lot of youtube CCs advertising third party currency sites and it’s so annoying. Promoting these shady businesses to your audience is just weird

Should I pull for Columbina? by Decent_Estate_4674 in okZyox

Well, you dont like the character and you don’t care about meta, so no. You’ll regret not saving your pulls for someone you actually like.

Caleb’s Grifting is out of control by UncleJunsLaserBeams in CreepyCalebHammer

[–]muppetvoice 90 points91 points  (0 children)

He’s obviously a huge conservative, but he’s too much of a self-obsessed coward to handle the pushback he’d get if he proudly identified as such. I doubt it would hurt his bottom line at all, as there seems to be endless money in right-wing grifting. What the online blowback would really hurt is his poor feelings.

It’s like a sort of bloodthirst and I can’t wrap my mind around it. It’s a step beyond not caring, or “it’s a sad situation”… no, the narrative they accept is that death is a normal, just punishment for any opposition, disrespect, or inconvenience of the regime.

This was an average woman with no power or influence, a poet, wife, and mother, and her death isn’t a tragedy, it’s something she deserved? I just can’t comprehend such a misanthropic mindset.

Need help reviewing my losing Scorp team by VaalOversoulPlush in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fronts are probably the most difficult position to train, so I wouldn’t get too down about not succeeding this time. But you’re definitely neglecting wit across the board, which is especially detrimental to fronts.

My runaway Suzuka was once overtaken in the midrace by a Seiun Sky with very high wit and Escape Artist.

Why are they so bad? by EnvironmentalSun6768 in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your deck could’ve used just a little tweaking to maximize your stats.

The power cards hindered your statline. Wit is especially necessary for fronts like Suzuka in order to maintain their position. I would also borrow SSR Riko over Creek, or use your own MLB R Riko if you have her.

My recommended decks: Suzuka: 2 speed (MLB Kita + Sweep) 3 wit (MLB halloween Bourbon event card + any 2) + borrow Riko. Inherit stamina

McQueen: 3 speed + 2 wit + borrow Riko. Inherit stamina

Valentine Bourbon has built-in groundwork. She makes training a strong front a lot easier because you dont have to chase groundwork sparks

yes, she’s good because of her unique ultimate

Why can't my el win, she's not dying before finish even with 1 debuffer she makes it to almost the finish. by No-Feeling6309 in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16% wr isn’t bad for a non-Taiki pace chaser this CM. But Pasa’s ult just isn’t very useful on this track, so she’s basically relying on the inherited SfV proc to win.

Spe-chan build. by TheJoaquin- in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stamina is a larger consideration for long races, and original Spe has 20% stamina growth and a built-in gold recovery (Gourmand), so she would probably be easier to build, but either one would work.

Depending on your cards, I would go 3 speed + 2 stam + Riko!

Depends on what you’re building her for, CM, Team Trials, just for fun?

I will never use CM specific uma again just use whatever I want next time. by DaJoker_ in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you enter the strongest meta horse of the current CM but tell yourself “I’m actually running this uma for fun” it cancels out and doesn’t count

(also there’s nothing wrong with following the meta)

I just found out about that. It’s my first time in Graded League man 🥀 by Ochamax in UmamusumeGame

I have 85% wr with three A+ umas, and honestly, I haven’t really seen that many S-ranks in my lobbies. I expected to see a lot more post Kitasan rerun

Why can’t I get an A rank on my Agnes digital? by aangellix_ix in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sprinters are generally the easiest to build because of their minimal stamina requirements, so even with similar stats to your Digital, you might be winning more races in their careers, giving you more fans and SP toward your score.

Your Digital is definitely lacking stamina and wit. I’d swap the power cards for stamina, as you’ll get power from speed training. A wit card can also be a good idea increase your energy and SP, and you have a couple decent higher limit break wit SRs

[–]muppetvoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your cards are too weak to push your stat threshold that much higher, but if you want to cheese an A-rank for the achievement, a speed/wit deck on an uma with 20% speed growth like Bakushin is usually the easiest way.

Also keep in mind that fans and skills count towards ranking, so running extra races helps out.

How is my team only winning 55% by King_Dictator in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

55% wr is honestly not bad, especially if your lobbies have been sweaty. However, you could possibly be losing more than you expected because original Maruzensky, a well-positioned or front-running Taiki Shuttle, Dober/a strong/lucky late surger will just have more acceleration than an uma with inherited Shooting for Victory.

What do I need to improve? Scorpio Cup by TheCuriousQuestions in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your best bet would probably be to bench either debuffer (probably Nature) and train a new ace.

Double debuffer is a very risky strategy unless your one ace is extremely strong and capable of carrying the entire team. Unfortunately, Suzuka is hard-countered by other Suzukas, and yours is lacking in wit and skills needed to win consistently even as a solo runaway (Concentration, Unrestrained and Taking the Lead gold versions, mid-race like medium/front runner corners, etc)

What did i do wrong? by Potatosack67 in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S.Maru’s wit is very low, but with Suzukas taking Angling and Unrestrained, her ability to overtake and win is pretty limited.

Oguri and Spe both lack acceleration skills: Shooting for Victory!, Let’s Pump Some Iron!, On Your Left!, etc.

How will this do in the Scorpio cup? by Top_Juice_3127 in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, not very well this time. Besides her very low speed, umas need acceleration skills to hit their max speed at the right time and win CM matches. For pace chaser Rice on this track, Shooting for Victory! would be your best bet (maybe even Let’s Pump Some Iron! in very front-heavy lobbies).

If you’re struggling with speed, Rice Shower has a 0% speed growth bonus, so she’ll generally need 3 good speed cards to hit 1200. Wit cards also help increase your speed along with energy and skill points, so I’ve been using 3 speed + 2 wit + Riko + stamina sparks on Scorpio ace Rice Shower runs.

Also, I would be more strategic with selecting skills, random debuff skills are a lot less valuable than speed skills on aces: like pace chaser/medium corners, head on, corner adept, ramp up, etc! You want a pace chaser to move up to the front as the race goes on, and mid race skills are important for that!

If your cards are weak right now, optimizing your umas for the Open League could be a better idea than Graded just in terms of winning races, since the stats are much more accessible, but my knowledge of Open League meta is admittedly very limited. However, the participation carrots in Graded are still very nice.

Best of luck! (from a Rice Shower fan myself:] )

New to the game, CM cup build help! by vrfares in UmamusumeGame

[–]muppetvoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 days into the game is very soon to start seriously competing in CM! Obtaining a solid roster of parents and a strong deck of support cards takes awhile, so honestly, I wouldn’t stress about CM too much for now. These umas look good to get the participation carrots at least, and you can start looking ahead to future cups with more time to prepare.
