I mean, you can. It's a bit sad, but you can

I don't know like most of the characters in the event story or what's going on. So it kinda feels like I'd be spoiling myself too much

aoharu in 75 mins
damn, can't wait for the new campaign but also terrified for whatever comes next
did the "farewell" run for ending the ura finale arc
naive hawk
guys we hit
in 100 pulls
in the next 100 free pulls we just pray
this was my free 10 pull
this mlb’d my flash
dawn valve
Lucky fuck
Lemme log in and see what I get
Meh
Bah. I got 1 copy only, which is... meh
And a random Yukino Bijin SSR
lemme just add the cleat tickets to that I guess
lol
Sure, I guess
Oh well, I guess with pity I'll at least have MLB 1
@naive hawk wtf, 3 rices and 2 Rikos, how even
naive hawk
how many pulls
oh ur saying me yeah indont fucking go
no
KNOW!
now ill just use the free pulls
if i get rice mlb on the way ill laugh man
i think this account was blessed every since i mlb’d kitasan on reroll in uh 70?
or 90
something fucking stupid
dawn valve
took a couple hours for this dev account
Yeah, I didn't do any rerolls
Just tilted up to pity... my Rice is now LB3, lmao
(no Rikos)
naive hawk
fuuuck
very useable rice did you get any r rikos?
i basically now have the equal to mlb r riko
dawn valve
What I got, cause fuck me
Riko is including the pity
But yeah, I have MLBR
Just gotta hope the free pulls give me more and move on now
dawn valve
Man, I have no idea what's happening in this unity cup, lmao
I'm just clicking things
little glen
you guys luckier than me tbh
hazy seal
Are these banners a pull? If so which
little glen
Are these banners a pull? If so which
it is
the riko banner
which has free x10 everyday
little glen
I tot it would come with that giga balance update
that will be arrived in November 11th
but you can taste it rn to get a grasp of these new mechanics in this scenario
i just finished it blind first try, first win
...wait
im not done yet, there's still ura finale phase?
bruh i though it's just about the unity cup
this run was really bad i don't think i'll win ura finale this way
little glen
won the ura finale phase
wow
got 15 missions on part 3 cleared at one run
but sure is this is way longer than the ura finale scenario
i admit i probably took the wrong proper trainings here for the first blind playthrough but yea, first try, first win
but yea i should probably peek the guide after this first run
dawn valve
Winning it is not really the issue and never has been tbf
hazy seal
Are the chars a skip?
dawn valve
You're doing better than I did at that point 
hazy seal
Buh
Back to sub 10k
My acc has been ruined ever since I went all in 180 pulls on Mihono and dont get her

i got it

Would it kill her to smile for her company photo or something?

My pulls didn't go so well, got Rice from the free pull and then the 100 Carat pulls i did only gave me 1 SSR Riko and 4 R ones, then i remembered i have the tickets left too and got R Riko to MLB with 9. Still not sure how it actually compares to 0SSR before the patch - losing the 5th date event for 5 training eff...
Meanwhile...
hazy seal
Next target banner is Hween?
little glen
yea hween support cards
and then xmas oguri
doing another run today, this time prioritizing on friendship trainings, it went wrong for some reasons
i ended up losing the final fight of the unity cup
despite a decent chance to win
my stats are also overall far worse than the first run too

little glen
i want to max the friendship first but the way these team members slowly stacking up would hinder their progress and eventually capped the capacity of 5 members training at once
i have this case often appearing so in the end there's 1-2 support card members' friendship not in orange bar during first summer
dawn valve
PSA btw, get Riko friendship up before first unity cup and you get extra stats + mood from her year end
little glen
To which bar?
dawn valve
She always give Sta/guts
little glen
yea
simple iron
Had a pretty busy day here, first i played more Uma than ever before 
Started with 3 test runs and wasn't happy with either, then i did the 3 borrow runs and wasn't really happy with them too, but i still slotted this Golshi in as my 3rd runner, just cause she arguably had a better statline. After daily reset i had to leave but i got in my CM runs on phone with results i didn't expect at all, went 4-1, 5-0, 4-1 and finally the more expected 1-4.
Still don't think i have much chances for anything better than 3rd in the finals unless i get pretty lucky, especially since i won't have time to sweat during registrations now ^^
(also the % in the final pic can be misleading, it was only 57% winrate total 
)
Oops, 2nd pic was supposed to be career info
little glen
my today's run were 2:4:4:1 lol
literally same output as previous day but this time oguri cap stole almost every wins here
i can only pray for the finals matchmaking
but once again, i would expect less when the new scenario arrived so several people probably were already found their better uma to run with
rn i will be trying the gutsmaxxing strat in the new scenario and hopefully going better than expected
simple iron
but once again, i would expect less when the new scenario arrived so several peo...
Yeah, that's why i was expecting to win much less in A group today too ^^
little glen
the new scenario i admit hard to adapt with but these veterans probably know what to do with this
so it's still a slim chance for me to meet those
but the submissions for the final is 2 days
simple iron
It's really just wild how much Sta/guts you can get with just Creek and Riko, so i went heavy into power sparks now and still somehow got loads of Wit ^^
Was in such a rush getting borrow runs done yesterday before reset i only now realise there's a Seiun grandparent on that Golshi
little glen
maybe since i have 2LB R Riko she isn't enough for carrying me with this much output for the last 2 runs
i might gonna try something else
but first, x10 free pulls reset today
simple iron
I haven't tried the R version, but here was my last borrow run with 0LB SSR and Kita borrow instead of MLB Riko. Still failed to get 1,2k Spd with 4 cards, but the rest of the statline felt really strong...
The issue with R is even if you get it MLB now you don't get the final date event until the patch on 11th
dawn valve
Yeah, getting max speed just seems tough, especially without speed bonus
simple iron
And then there's people doing it with 2 cards on Oguri (who has 20% growth, but still) 
dawn valve
Oguri probably has my best run so far, but idk that it will actually perform better than my groundwork meme Oguri does
simple iron
Also unrelated but i saw they raised the Roster to 230 Umas now ^^
dawn valve
Thank fuck, still not enough though
It wouldn't be so bad if it were any easier to filter out the ones you don't want, but it's a nightmare
simple iron
but the submissions for the final is 2 days
You have 12 hours to singup btw, not 2 days ^^
simple iron
It wouldn't be so bad if it were any easier to filter out the ones you don't wan...
Yeah, i heard people started using excel sheets to keep track of their umas and to easier search the skills
dawn valve
Pain
simple iron
Probably helps with all the skill changes now, rather than thinking 'where do i have my Nimble Navigator sparks (that weren't deleted)'
dawn valve
What is annoying is that optimizing track/ryce type sparks is infinitely more important now, cause you will only get random skills for stuff you have aptitude for
So if you have, like, a random late surger spark that pushed that to B for you, then fuck you I guess
Have Outer Swell or whatever
simple iron
That really messed me up on my test runs since i didn't realise my nonborrow grandparent had Late, so i kept getting Late skills for Golshi...
I just somehow had in mind she has Late A by default and completely glossed over it...
simple iron
Oh, that does make it even worse
little glen
You have 12 hours to singup btw, not 2 days ^^
oh oof then
simple iron
I'll have to see if i can get a run in tomorrow morning before i have to leave, otherwise just joining with current umas and hoping for the best...
little glen
same
I've been fine with this roster so far in group B
only praying to not meet with those came from group A
i have less chance to win anyways
simple iron
only praying to not meet with those came from group A
There might be a fair few of those 
Actually know someone who was very unlucky and went 2 wins on literally every ticket in round 2
little glen
rip
dawn valve
I'll have to see if i can get a run in tomorrow morning before i have to leave, ...
Probably gonna end up doing that, particularly because there is no chance to actually test the new umas first
Higher stats doesn't really mean much if the skill comp you had before was better
And that doesn't even factor in S procs on aptitudes
simple iron
Well, my skills are crap, i'm really just looking to get another Golshi with THH and then hoping to get S, which is rough considering THH is basically my GW
As in a spark thing only
dawn valve
(and honestly, I'm kinda done with training for this CM. Make it stop already)
simple iron
I'm already dreading the next one too, i was hoping to get away with re-running my Vodka at least who somehow got over 1,1k Power, but with all the Guts changes that will be active then i probably have to remake all the aces...
dawn valve
The next one is easier cause we don't need the two fucking gold recoveries on top of everything else
Making a good miler is so much easier
little glen
quite a rough run with slow metabolism sticking throughout the summer training
well i guess i have to submit with the current lineup

im 2 copies short of getting MLB R Riko

Gutmaxxing
Time to start figuring things out
For now, my deck is just cards that has scenario link
little glen
Most of my results were around this
even with guts or doing the normal ways
been following the same thought process as rednu did but i guess the "it is what it is" being the lack of bubbles popping up here and there with friends in it
but i kind of see that the potential of facilities level up much quicker in this scenario

simple iron
So that morning run to try and remake Golshi for CM finals was a flop, just registered with my old team
Now i manged to fit in a borrow run on Teio before the reset and kinda happy with the stats, also my new highest scoring run - was just surprised i managed to get through all the SSR chain events cause that was such a pain in the past even with 3 ^^
Sta might be a bit low, but with 2 gold recoveries she might be ok for TT, also planning to replace my current Teio medium ace there with this if i don't get a better one by the patch
hazy seal
Anything new with regards to doing spark runs on new mode?
simple iron
People keep saying you wanna do parent runs in URA still if that's what you mean
Mostly cause you generally do more races on parent runs, which means you do less spirit building stuff, but also cause URA spark is better
Then again, depending on your setup, Unity spark gives Power/Wit, so that might be better too
hazy seal
Gonna do a couple of funny spark runs to clear that skill mission ig
simple iron
The '2* Sta spark' is the only thing still missing for me from part 2 and i'm worried i'll never hit the RNG for it in the remaining ~30 days
hazy seal
Meanwhile i just cleared the 5 wins in med today lmao
little glen
I got all of the part 2 missions
now it's only those 20x Aoharu campaign mission
but I think i somehow found the cheesy way to speedrun it
naive hawk
if ur pulling just see if you get lucky in 100
ive heard you can make parents in either one
little glen
I accidentally failed oguri cap run when it failed the 3k fans mission bc missed the opportunity to win a single one
little glen
ive heard you can make parents in either one
I think the Aoharu sparks are little bad than Ura Finale
little glen
bc the sparks it give are Power + Wit stats
naive hawk
spark farming = ura actual like parent making you can still do in aoharu
little glen
wonder how the meta will shift a mile higher with the patch coming out
naive hawk
the meta is taki shuttle
taki is good the uh 1200 stam suzuka strat but thats like turbo whale
late surgers have more gamble
little glen
tho taiki is the mile queen now
naive hawk
and vodka
rice shower miiight be very useable
no one knows forsure if the track is the new one
always has been you know oshii players but!
little glen
i start to wonder if the future umas we will get going to adapt with the new patch version instead of the pre-anni patch
naive hawk
yes
naive hawk
going forward thats the update
what was your plan
im carrat rich and i dont gotta pull for kita so im free to either save all the way till oguri
or grab cafe or kawakami princess
i should just pull dober
little glen
was planning to shoot for kitasan black but now im probably seeing a better potential supports and umas instead
especially the xmas oguri
little glen
i hope i still able to get there
naive hawk
how many carats you got rn
little glen
bc 0LB Kitasan is still in the dust left unused
naive hawk
oh fuck
little glen
800-ish now
little glen
so 800-ish that's like already around 140-ish pulls now
naive hawk
im gonna wait to use that ticket as long as possible im lb0 finemo and i dont have a single creek
naive hawk
yeah i didnt go to pity
little glen
have 0LB FineMo but no Creek
naive hawk
i just did 100 and i hit surprisingly
little glen
nice
naive hawk
i was thinking about pulling on biko/sakura
but its a tough banner since you wanna mlb both basically
im lb2 biko i think
and investing that much for basically two statsticks is kinda badge
happy i almost got mayano/cafe mlb’d
im literally only bad on stam cards
little glen
not a great pull today
naive hawk
thats also why i love mile lmaoo
little glen
tomorrow i can probably get 20 pulls
little glen
I have both Tosho and Agnes SR MLB
naive hawk
damn
little glen
since long ago
naive hawk
CLEAAAT FACTORY!!
little glen
Sunday also MLB'd
naive hawk
get ur cleat tickets 😼
little glen
already done
simple iron
the meta is taki shuttle
From what i heard Taiki might not be the best for this, having to do with where her unique triggers now ^^
Gotta see after the patch for actual detail
naive hawk
they fixed it know?
no
yeah people gotta test after the patch its speculation lowkey
little glen
all the changes so far reflected the anniversary one JP got
so i guess we'll see
we might have different game if that's the case
naive hawk
i think its just its easier to proc since she needed to have like people around her while also being like 4th
yeah we are just catching up to jp
but instead it happening at 1st anni it happened at the half
little glen
it's pretty rare to see the jp buffs get applied to us way ahead
so it's a somewhat W for cygames
and us
naive hawk
yeah i dont think it happened for taiwan/korea
little glen
TW/Korea had been long follow
naive hawk
i think korea got the extra borrow runs at 1st anni
i forget where korea is at rn oh calstone light o
neko
dawn valve
thats also why i love mile lmaoo
Mile is just yolo, what even is stamina (unless Suzuka)
naive hawk
so they just got dream journey and epic food festival rice shower
little glen
To this day i don't have her yet
naive hawk
AND THE JUNGLE POCKET!!!
dawn valve
Part of what restricted my unity runs so far were the Leo reqs
Now we go on to kore fun and free runs
little glen
Isn't it the same mile requirements
naive hawk
damn i wonder whats gonna happen when gentildonna hits korea
little glen
1200 - 601 - 301 or smth
naive hawk
not really 601 because debuffers
little glen
can't recall but power should be around 901 isn't it
naive hawk
more like 950
naive hawk
my golshi is 900 900 or something
little glen
oh wow yea
little glen
with the mile haven happening the stam requirements also jump up pretty high too
little glen
901 power should be bare minimum right
simple iron
Mile CM btw
dawn valve
there reallly isnt mile debuffers
I mean, you could theoretically do the Late Surger hybrids who have their late surger based debuffs, but at most you kill people at minimum Stam with that
naive hawk
600 guts is a LUXARYYY
700 for runaway
700 front 650 for pace and 600 for late/end
fuck it is MILE TAISHIN COMING BACK!!
dawn valve
You really only need 400 guts
simple iron
400 guts loses you about 0.2 accel in the final spurt ^^
dawn valve
Guts town is next scenario
naive hawk
and if you have an uma who really pushes it all in the final
so what im hearing im going back to my goat
dawn valve
400 guts loses you about 0.2 accel in the final spurt ^^
Which is really only relevant for front runners
naive hawk
THE SPE..
dawn valve
So yeah, front just needs everything as per usual
naive hawk
and what im hearing is you know who has a guts bonus narita taishin…
dawn valve
Give me a Suzuka, game
simple iron
Which is really only relevant for front runners
Literally everyone wants accell there, hence why Red Shift/Shooting/Pump were the main ults for non-fronts ^^
dawn valve
Suzuka is the ultimate blocker now btw
dawn valve
Run Suzuka + good pace = auto win
naive hawk
ANY MIHONOERS
dawn valve
Suzuka just has a minimum of 2, potentially 3 base groundwork trigger skills built in
little glen
here's my oguri candidate for virgo somehow
dawn valve
Concentration + Early Lead are 2, left handed or the new GREAT RUNNER are 3
No more hint farming
naive hawk
i might wanna use biwa but its so tough because of no speed or power bonus really
but the 20% wit 10% guts its kinda gas
dawn valve
Just do a run with her and the ssr Falco and you have auto setup for gw
Stupidly easy
That's not even whale territory either for that matter
naive hawk
never done a parent run in my LIFEE
dawn valve
She's, like, easier to build than a Bakushin
naive hawk
i should start but also let other people do the work frfr..
lowkey i should use grass
little glen
Cancer was a mistake for me to go into group A
got wrecked and didn't make it to final
will this gonna happen to Virgo as well?
dawn valve
never done a parent run in my LIFEE
Me neither tbh. What do you even do there, just do every G race possible, right?
To farm compatibility points
naive hawk
something like that and then they dont even show up in the end
LOL!!
get this trainer a 1 wit star
simple iron
Me neither tbh. What do you even do there, just do every G race possible, right...
Nah, it's mostly for affinity, on Ryan i just did all the triple crowns and her regular races ^^
little glen
Honestly i don't care about parents run, it's just about get good sparks accidentally from good parents and you're good to go
dawn valve
But affinity matters for truly great parents though
simple iron
Then sometimes weave in the relevant spark ones, like Taka Kinen spark gives Summer or Queen Elizabeth gives Non-Standard hints
dawn valve
Especially on crap like Maru who only has affinity to her sports car and nothing else
dawn valve
Well, res shift gets sorta replaced by no stopping me
It's not super relevant any more. Still good though
little glen
yep, and it's available for free in the aoharu carreer
naive hawk
should’ve pulled doto if i had the insight i was gonna pull riko like this
little glen
speaking of
dawn valve
should’ve pulled doto if i had the insight i was gonna pull riko like this
Fuck you again btw
dawn valve
Gotta log in and do my 10 pull
naive hawk
ur getting kitasan
little glen
until when the riko banner ended
in like 6 days right
oh, 18th
that's pretty enough time to mercy one
dawn valve
I mean... you get 100 pulls, 10 a day. That math wasn't really that hard
little glen
oh yea i wanted to share my pulls video from 2 days ago but couldn't able to bc notro
so...
these from my like... 90 carat pulls
and these are the only SSR I got
i mean i can take Rice Shower but she's only limited for Aoharu so...
dawn valve
Damien's fault
naive hawk
HACHIMI HACHIMI HACHIMIII
simple iron
This felt pretty high for new year ^^
dawn valve
That's pretty decent, ye
I had, like... a perfect run, but then RNg decided to 4% me amd I couldn't max out speed on Fuji
On a 65 Spd training
Look at the skills, man
simple iron
That's a lot of double circles ^^
dawn valve
Yeah
Imagine Lone Wolf triggers as well (which is never ever gonna happen in a cm, but you know)
simple iron
I've had races where it did 
So i always put it on my ace anyway ^^
Well 'best' ace since i do 3xace
Btw, do Ignited Spirit skills actually work outside of the scenario? I wasn't even sure if they'd work in TT if you have them on all umas there
dawn valve
They're supposed to I believe, but I'm not exactly certain. I did see it pop up on some guide with recommended skills for Virgo though
little glen
From what I read that skill is only exclusive to the scenario, never work for outside of it
dawn valve
It doesn't actually say that anywhere though. You get them exclusively in Unity cup, but that's about it
Most talk about them I've seen is just that they're fucking expensive and hard to use because of that
(for reference, I have the white version which cost me 140 skill points with 3 hints on it)
simple iron
Welp, got really lucky, checked some oppo umas and they mostly had 1,1k speed... ^^
dawn valve
I ran into a no other front runner finale
Which is actually bad, but my Oguri took over and paced her forward on #2
simple iron
I still don't get what that number is for btw
dawn valve
Yeah, idk
simple iron
Why was this in A finals? 
dawn valve
What I do know however is that the xth fav rankings are always bs, which is great, cause my Smaru basically always won when she was, like, 8th or 9th fave
dawn valve
Why was this in A finals? <:ChoerryNervous:772939960818466826>
Luck?
(get it, cause it's Makitane)
simple iron
She did probably bring luck to their ace Tachyon i guess
dawn valve
scarier opponent was like
(Golshi & Oguri)
I guess there's something to be said for skills trumping a few hundred stat points, cause I absolutely had the skills advantage
little glen
dawn valve
Groundwork Oguri go brr
dawn valve
Hey, 2nd isn't bad
little glen
yea, it was a really good race ending
okay this game is confirmed not letting me getting ssr riko then
dawn valve
I also like how SMaru only won by head, Oguri was the perfect backup there
Triumphant Pulse lvl 5 just go brrrr
Now... lemme go use those scouting tickets 
And nothing
dawn valve
My Narita Brian SSR is now MLB, but idk... she doesn't seem very usable this scenario
viscid elm
This felt pretty high for new year ^^
Why is Teio looking at me like
little glen
I guess it's usable for CM
-# moral support at least
got the 12 skills in a run mission alongside new high score as well
little glen
nice nice
little glen
funny enough, my el condor with almost 1k spd and 7xx-ish in stam power and guts managed to get this far
ran with 2 aces 1 debuffer this time with condor oguri and evil nature
overall even tho it was quite close i am satisfied with this result
even my el condor could able to run again with any cm conditions
-# except sprint
dawn valve
The one I worked on the least
See, try harding barely worth it
hazy seal
See, try harding barely worth it
The fomo did get to me and made not motivated

Instagram
little glen
okay so basically pop 'em for the first 1.5 years and then go brrr slowly but surely on rainbows
also pick the middle option for the safe first unity round, then top options all the way
it still eventually led you to the +50 bonus stats if done properly
naive hawk
they dont stack so
naive hawk
I guess it's usable for CM
isnt productive plan a sprint skill or am i buggin
oh naw its a mile
dreamy trout
Giga cutie patootie get

You know you got the most cooked glue run in existence when you have this at the final screen
Pretty sure this is the first time I've had exactly zero unique improvement procs
simple iron
Well, they're checks rather than procs
Need 60/80k fans in Senior January/April (lower for Dirt umas) ^^
I've struggled with it a lot today too doing King Halo careers with the idea of remaking my Sprint TT, but she keeps running Mediums in her career and lacking Sta for them - so no wins means not enough fans...
dawn valve
My Taiki just kept losing her runs while being completely fine stat and skill wise for them, so I guess that didn't help
Still the most glue run
Meanwhile breezed through unity cup as if that did any good
naive hawk
im crying
i think i need to acutally start making parents yall
but everytime i think about it i get confused
dawn valve
Making parents is what you do to get burned out tbh
I like rolling good umas, but do I want to do the parent breeding rotation? Fuck no.
little glen
Need 60/80k fans in Senior January/April (lower for Dirt umas) ^^
iirc it wasn't even 60k/80k, it was 60k and 75k
at least in aoharu there's no requirement for pd friendship to lvl 3 anymore
little glen
little glen
oh wow, just did random runs for improving all my umas on new scenario and one of them hit a jackpot
not in the best uma for 3* tho but i'm happy i got my first 8* speed inheritance
hazy seal
That is a ticket that won
little glen
truly what makes her a "winning ticket"
also last time playing her scenario was like, back in august
but ngl her scenario today somewhat sucked bc of a random 12th place in G2 right before a win in G1 a step after
hazy seal
I was half trolling by focusing on uhh the team thingy
hazy seal
should've gutted harder
True, not enuf stam or guts
little glen
tomorrow, a new game will begin
i wonder how "eyes-opening" the new anniversary buff gonna be
but first, free pullss
dawn valve
Another day, another absolutely nothing in the 10 pull
little glen
atp i would eventually mlb rice shower than getting ssr riko i swear 💀
-# at least i got mlb'd R riko
im not mad at least
naive hawk
i need more power but holy shit
might have to start using my power cards i might still be able to hit 600 wit
praying i get another riko or rice in these free pulls
if i get a riko before = use pity on rice
if not i just use it on riko
simple iron
I'm not sure Rice is good anymore with the patch
So i'm just really hoping to get another Riko to have 2LB with pity
little glen
good thing i mlb'd riko the R card since apperantly R pal cards also getting buffed too
wonder if there's more QoLs that's not in the patch will be present tomorrow
like auto-skips all tt races
dawn valve
Maintenance, noooo
hazy seal
They ran away
dawn valve
but when it's over, umamusume 2 is released
Not sure if that goes live at end of maintenance or with daily reset
They're just implementing it now
hazy seal
Guts is breaking the game (This changes everything)
dawn valve
Not really, not yet anyway. It's much better, but still the least desirable stat
On Make a new track scenario that changes though
SImply because you race a lot
hazy seal
Imma have to stare at my cards for 10 minutes to scrape a deck out
dawn valve
I started mapping out my veteran umas. Only slightly tedious
little glen
Umamusume is a wit game
dawn valve
It would seem like it
past ibex
good day for gacha, from the free pull lol
little glen
yay extended maintennis
simple iron
hazy seal
True
little glen
guts too powerful it needed another time
little glen
mega rip i can't install the patch on my phone anymore
simple iron
Apparently it redownloads entire game instead of actually patching, so i guess you could try reinstalling instead if you lack space
Also there's a lot more updates it seems
TT fast mode
Trainee skill hint levels but apparently we can't get books for them until MANT
little glen
ooh
i just gone through repair data and it will eventually wipe the data but not the account data
now it will just redownloads everything
Also nice, that feature is long time coming
simple iron
We actually get choice hints in career now too, so no longer need to use gametora the whole time
little glen
now that's even better
hazy seal

little glen
if this half anniversary patch is this big
i wonder what will we be getting on 1st anniversary
both the accelerated and the global release one
dawn valve
We actually get choice hints in career now too, so no longer need to use gametor...
Dialogue choices with branching effects will not have their conditions or probabilities displayed.
I guess we'll still need it for the event chains
But this is especially great for the random events you get from cards you have never used in your life
For reference
◦ Expanded the Sort and Filter options for Veteran Umamusume, and added Memos and Favorites Icons.

It is pretty good, you can then also filter by different fav icons
Like you can fav mile sparks with mile shoes etc
dawn valve
Thank god
(my patch is still downloading, so I can't see yet )
Also full list here
hazy seal
What feature do I want next outside of auto play and TT skip
dawn valve
Whatever tf is Practice? Simulated runs with your umas?
simple iron
And others, you can save umas from other rooms/club members/friends etc and add them into practice
hazy seal
Oh yeah, rewind for all races
You are allowed to rewind as long as you dont get first regardless of objective
simple iron
These are now in archive too, just realised i'll have to change the umas on screen to get their conversations
dawn valve
This Practice feature is pretty nice, honestly
Oh, you can change in between various alt version outfits you have for the same uma (as in Smaru can use OG Maru outfit and vice versa for example)
little glen
damn
i don't know when these QoLs were implemented in JP but i feel like cygames is really serious on keeping umamusume on a great pace
these are very nice and quite helpful
more than i was expected
dawn valve
And those hint level books will be valuable asf, this makes things so much easier for the otherwise unreasonably expensive innate skills
little glen
not to mention the upcoming SSR and SR limit break crystals
dawn valve
like, wdym I don't need to pay 180 for every skilly
dawn valve
not to mention the upcoming SSR and SR limit break crystals
Well, with those at least we actually knew they were coming
little glen
yea, this is a really great update overall
honestly i was thinking they're only adding the ability to skip team trial matches
but welp, they deliver more than what i was thinking
dawn valve
TT quick mode is a great QoL as well
That shit took ages
I suppose at the end of the day this also saves them a bunch of server traffic
dawn valve
Just get better internet, duh
little glen
Agenda feature is very helpful for mapping out best route for farmings
and get more skill pts obv
hazy seal
Oh man...
Another giga run with no spark
Couldve been cracked and funny
Oh this is sad
You can do multiple daily runs at once but you only spawn the shop at the end of it
In jp, the shop stacks
dawn valve
I mean... good runs are for Aces, not sparks
hazy seal
I ran all the g1 and end up with arima spark
Almost had the ability to pivot my build mid career to debuff om
dawn valve
Just as a PSA btw, card & skills changes are definitely not in effect yet
simple iron
They kinda are i think, some are definitely bugged though
Like Falcon card doesn't have GW, R Riko 5th event fails
dawn valve
Like Falcon card doesn't have GW, R Riko 5th event fails
Yeah, that first one was what I just wanted to try
little glen
The great thing about this update is that cygames didn't tell you that you can now make your own Trainer ID
now this is what i call the GOTY Edition
I haven't played the career yet as it seems many people were encountering bugs
simple iron
They actually restored my borrow from the run i started pre-maintenance, so i did a quick run earlier and it seemed very smooth ^^
The Agenda thing actually seems amazing for parent runs, can't ever forget races again, just load that up after debut race
hazy seal
Its nice, for races with fan requirements, they get shuffled onto the bottom so you gotta scroll
little glen
They changed the timings for few stuffs
so they're all now lining up at 10pm UTC (except daily login i assume which stays the same)
dawn valve
I just want the GW on my Falco so I can start doing my Front Runner for Virgo
simple iron
Since the Cleat shop reset too, i finally got MLB Cafe and Matikanefukukitaru from the SR scout 
little glen
ooh

free pulls today 💀
dawn valve

It didn't reset though
simple iron
Mine did
dawn valve
Only thing that was available for me was the silver cleat make debut ticket
little glen
i have gold cleat shop resetted tho
they resetted all the tickets there
while at it i did done few ticket pulls for chess
and to evolve this last uma to 3*
dawn valve
they resetted all the tickets there
Why didn't I get that.... 
what is this, Cygames
little glen
i dunno, R Riko should've have its 5th dating worked properly as well
but it's broken so i didn't gain any stats 💀
little glen
yeap i guess we will wait for that
simple iron
X
dawn valve
Nice, now to... not use it ever (until the Kitasan rerun banner)
simple iron
I think i should use the gold one on Sweep to MLB it, but really wondering how many more of these we get in the future...
dawn valve
The one thing I did get from all my useless RIko pulls is my last Sweep for MLB
simple iron
Guess i should at least wait for the last few 10pulls before using this one too 
simple iron
People have been saying extra training could cure Practice Poor in the past, but it never worked for me ^^
So not actually sure if this is also one of the many new cure ways or just really low chance
Also hint books are in the friend shop now, but limited of course
So apparently we're getting shards of SR crystals in future events, but it's gonna be 920k for the 3rd one
And needs 20 shards to make into the SR crystal
I wonder if i can get 6k Carats with everything they're throwing at us right now so i could dump that on Biko up to pity before the banner is done
But i also feel like i've been getting really unlucky with these free pulls compared to my past tries, haven't even gotten a single offbanner SSR...
little glen
this run (and probably past few runs) could've been better if the spirit explosions were on speed training more often
almost lost to unity cup finale but did a success from the 8th rank to the top
dawn valve
I just lost to unity cup finale with 4 double circles and one regular circle, so there's that
RNG be like
little glen
it happens to one of us
hazy seal
I won my unity with my uma the only one losing lmao
little glen
one thing i learned is that you must recheck and order your unity cup team for the finale round
if you feel like you can't able to win against them
little glen
this choice preview feature is apperantly borrowed from JP's 4th anniversary update
hint level up feature is borrowed from "make a new track" scenario update
little glen
last carat pulls for a while
little glen
a very guts run, almost had me lost in the unity cup finals with 4 crosses 1 circle lmfao
the power of urara really does smth to them i guess

i think i already got like, 7-8 umas got refined for this scenario
only 12-13 more to go

You can inherit skills from grandparents right
little glen
you still can

Gonna skem groundwork
hazy seal
I need to skem groundwork while still having maru as parent, to then train smaru
Convoluted

so you want your run ends with a white skill of groundwork
then make that parent based from it

Yep

this still around for a month
hazy seal
I'll push a bit when event drops

Yeah, i just went back to URA to do parent runs, gonna keep this ticket until after Kita rerun anyway to see what i spend it on

At least I finally have a front runner that isn't Maru
I did attempt to make Bakushin a front runner parent lmao

R Riko is still bugged... sonehow

Waiting for the free pull to end so I can pull and cash out
And maybe get 2 more riko

I guess after daily reset is front runner train time
naive hawk
LOL
im getting nothing in my 10’s
very useable btw
been going 3 wit 2 speed we are so up
dawn valve
I kept trying that, but RNG hates me and never lets me max out spd like that, so I reduced it to 2 wit
And yeah, I imagine this Rice will be very useful, just not for the Virgo prep
Should be good for the long CM after
hazy seal

hazy seal
And maybe get 2 more riko
1 more to go
little glen
Well.... lmao
you know what
atp i'm pretty much clear what i will decide on my pity
i have enough of her
simple iron
Very random, but I'll take the retention
Did you remake many of them yet btw? I somehow managed to hit 534k last week and now after updating a few of them i can barely pass 500k
(also just realised i'm still 49 points above retention but it's showing me in demotion anyway 
)
Guess i should go back to my old system and fight the top option with Parfait, been kinda coasting on just going against the lowest option for max wins all these months
dawn valve
Did you remake many of them yet btw? I somehow managed to hit 534k last week and...
Not really, only like one or two. The thing with TT is, skill activation is super valuable and you just don't have as many skills in unity run umas, all upgrading my stuff to higher tier umas does is make me go up against even worse opponents
Eventually I obviously will, but just being an A+ uma doesn't get the required scores, so they need them skills
simple iron
Not really, only like one or two. The thing with TT is, skill activation is sup...
Yeah, that's why i mostly hovered around 159k/165k for the past months, didn't really see the point in pushing. But you do get a bonus based on team rank score of the oppo ^^
And people have apprently been getting more skill points in Unity too, but suppose that requires a wit heavy deck
dawn valve
Ye. At the end of the day I will slowly progress into it, but as long as I get retention like this I don't see the point in rushing it, it's not like I'm gonna beat the whales on the leaderboard (not like that does anything anyway)
What I did do is upgrade all Sr/ssr support cards to minimum lvl 25 today, that increased my flat automatic point bonus to over 5% and was relatively cheap
And it's noticeable in the scores, too
Didn't do it with Rs cause I'm not that rich
But eventually I should
dawn valve
New legend races are already on Virgo cup track for some reason
naive hawk
Should be good for the long CM after
my biwa will be used..
i wanna makes most of my teams unique biwa maybe matikane and rice for next cm
or maybe KING HALO…
dawn valve
or maybe KING HALO…
King Halo on long is crazy talk. You'll need 2 gold recoveries again plus basically max stamina, so Rice + Oguri + probably Golshi is probably what I'll go with
naive hawk
but… we have to prove king halos evil mother wrong
😼
plus aoharu = STATS GO BOOM!!! WE HITTING 3K STAM!
dawn valve
I still haven't managed to really pull off something even close to double max stats
I just suck at this I guess
naive hawk
its lowkey if my grass stops failing 12%’s
dawn valve
Yeeeeeeah
naive hawk
and maybe if my explodes uhh actually land on something worth it
naive hawk
sometimes its power
dawn valve
Power is fine tbh
dawn valve
Front runner is less stressful now but at the same times it's just as RNG. Just did my 3 borrows, first run great stats, no S procs, ok skills, second run great skills + S Mile + shit stats, 3rd run... S front, shit skills
I kinda have to run Falco and the Stam Suzuka + 2 spd + matikaru SR + Riko but.. you know
Riko refusing to fucking show up for the last 2 runs before first year end, cause who needs that stam, huh
As in, she had enough friendship, but event didn't trigger
But we'll get there.... it's definitely less stressful than betting on groundwork procs
Oh right, first run the Suzuka event chain didn't happen, that was the thing there
Give me my concentration, RNG
naive hawk
i have suzuka maybe ill run a front but im a gambler lover
dawn valve
If you have Suzuka it's worth running her just to kill all front runners
That's not even a lot of work, you literally just need one run
naive hawk
blockers are lame and cringe #ACEORNOTHING
naive hawk
SHE IS BORN TO WIN!!! RUNAWAY SUZUKA
dawn valve
But it wouldn't hurt to prepare a Blockuka if the CM meta is all fronts
naive hawk
if thats the case ill bring maaybe a pace chaser to fight one
saw charles from vf test someones like S curren chan she just procs mcqueen skill and a bunch of other skills gg she zooms
I AINT HITTING S but
dawn valve
Eh, that won't do tbh. If you have a max stam runway Suzuka that fights another front everyone else loses
Just automatically
Either way, I'll run my Leo Cup hero Smaru regardless. Bring it on, Suzuka
I spend some statues to get her to 4* as well for better skill. Put Angling + Suzuka unique on top
Just need that one good run that gives me Mile S and decent skills + stats
No big deal, trust
If no other front runners are there she can win, if Suzuka is there she can tire her out so my Taiki wins
And given that she has 777 by default since I have to trigger unique and 777 triggers at perfect time on this track she won't die quite as easily
Just still ain't 100% certain who my third will be. Might be Fuji, might be Oguri, idk
little glen
Tbh the big rng part that I hate is that sometimes the burst training is not landing on the stats of my liking
Like I wanted them to pop on speed but they literally went south and yeah, guts i guess
i want to do power -> bursts went to stamina all the time
game, can these bursts lineup to my mind for once
dawn valve
Debuff doesn't do anything this CM
third would be pace or late
For when your fronts die
And remember, front without Groundwork is actually useless for CM
hazy seal
Its a gamble then
hazy seal
Could've gotten a bit more stats but idk how much spd she will get at the end of scenario om
dawn valve
It's less than at URA, so there's that
dawn valve
Seeing how it uses the Virgo track it was a nice test for my Taiki
Easy clap, really
Burning Spirit Guts gold... lmao
dawn valve
Why are you getting gold skills and uniques on parents

Why are you getting gold skills and uniques on parents

ok yep it is trash
also is there anything worth SR LB crystal with
simple iron
Apparently the best idea is still to hold it until we get Ayabe card ^^
hazy seal
How many days of free pulls are left?
dawn valve
Another day, another absolutely nothing from pull
simple iron
Kinda annoyed that i got this statline and SMile on a trial run yesterday (which is why her ult was lower cause i wasn't sure about extra races to run yet) and now with 2LB Riko and using statues to bring her to 4* i'm struggling to get close
dawn valve
It's always like this
I did a random parent run with Rice and she instantly got Mile and Pace S procs
But obviously at that point of a run it's too late to turn it into ace run
Also she died in spring Tenno sho later, not that it matters
That race is essentially the only one that ever kills my runs, but it does occasionally happen
dawn valve
I lost count, do we still have free pulls left or are we done?
simple iron
I think we have one or 2 more, i messed it up cause i used a bunch of tickets after my 100 Carat pulls so i'm not sure how much extra i did that i got pity today
Also i guess complaining works, this was by far my highest scoring run now
And i know URA finale sparks are highly wanted but this was pretty crazy, she consistently got ~100 total points for Inspiration before, but here with hitting 2 URA it shot up to almost 200 ^^
dawn valve
Nice
little glen
wish i have either taiki or silence suzuka
little glen
failed ura finale but still got that A rank. very happy noneless for this evil nature aoharu run
little glen
i think for runaway it needs extra stamina
people said it's 1.1k, but others said it's lesser than that
dawn valve
people said it's 1.1k, but others said it's lesser than that
That seems to be the correct number though. 2 stam + 2 spd + 1 wit + riko deck go brrrr
hazy seal
Noooo my guts
dawn valve
You get guts as a byproduct of stam training
That's more than sufficient, given that it still is the least relevant stat
past ibex
NO WAY, my free pull 😭
dreamy trout
Hell yeah
dawn valve
There you go
hazy seal
This is an uma
naive hawk
guys im so mad
i could’ve hit 600 stam if i hit the butron here
she won 8 times this career btw
no mile s tho ill cry
i usually also hit late s
first a+ also btw 😭
hazy seal
Why is she so smart
naive hawk
the smartest horse of all time
the bursts kept coming and it was like a +67 rainbow
im like well…
now it just took 4 turns for her to win maiden
GLUE…
hazy seal
My S mile is from a couple of cm ago om
I'll see what I can do without friend borrow hmm
dawn valve
I did a couple Golshi runs... and one run I did not have a single Kitasan rainbow training, cause fuck me I guess
And for some god forsaken reason I basically never get training camp rainbow trainings
Cause yeah, again, fuck me I guess
And one run she locked my trainings 9 times. I counted.
Goiod stuff
dawn valve
Alas
Pretty much only missing Fall Runner for perfect set of greens
Only just realized the skill hint books are now in friendship point shop
... enough to raise one white skill hint by 1 per month
little glen
yea i bought these too
flat galleon
my most stacked run yet 
dawn valve
I mean, that just makes her slightly better, it's fine
hazy seal
Did another 60 just to hit the 200 pull, got like 3 ssr including a rice
Yet I wonder which cards are actually usable
dawn valve
I mean, depends on what you drew and what you call usable
little glen
kay hmmm
which one should i top off with?
do I 1LB riko or just accept the mercy with mlb rice
little glen
That seems to be the correct number though. 2 stam + 2 spd + 1 wit + riko deck ...
also tried your strat but seems doesn't matter if your trainee only happen to have spark training on speed once
won the unity cup, failed the ura finale, instant glue'd
-# oh hey transfer request is still up i might as well throw her to the "recycle" bin
time to redo her again
dawn valve
also tried your strat but seems doesn't matter if your trainee only happen to ha...
Well, RNG gonna RNG
simple iron
also tried your strat but seems doesn't matter if your trainee only happen to ha...
But you were asking for Runaway? That's Suzuka specific, on all other chars you don't even need Sta cards ^^
3Spd, 1power, 1Wit should be even with R Riko i guess, especially if one of the Speed cards is Biko, just need a bit of luck at 2LB ^^
