To my surprise, I've seen zero mention about the horse girl gacha game. So. You know. Here it is.

Anyway, what's your experience with the game? Do you prepare for monthly Champions meetings? Is RNGesus with you with scouting?

I'm still preparing for the cup (even though it's starting in just a few days).
Feel also free to share your best Umas!
 
I still own the app but I kinda just stopped playing in early January fsr, possibly just Champions Cup burnout. maybe I'll get back to it someday.

I got into it through the anime and had no concept of who was viable or not for beginners, so my selector ticket was used on the goat of all time Rice Shower!!!!!!!

as much as I love her, would not start the game with her again. her career's hard af early game, dare I say the dark souls of gacha gaming. game basically just turned into "how well can I do before I get destroyed at the Spring Tenno Sho" rather than "how far into this career can I go with the resources I have", but that made it all the more exciting when I did finally get past it.

as for best umas, by memory I'd say my best is one of my Halloween Super Creeks put through Unity Cup but I can't check right now and don't have screenshots on my laptop. I do have a screenshot of the first 3 star career I beat tho.

as far as Champions meeting go, I only prep for what I can, Mile is easy to prep, I dont have Silence Suzuka but I can throw a Front runner blocker, a Taiki Shuttle and something for the back and be done. Medium were my absolute worst, but recently got a 3 star medium generator Rice Shower. for Long I have like 10000 long S but no MLBS on stamina super creek. dirt and sprint kinda suck

problem is not winning, its the fucking whales, I saw some bumass with like new year Haru Urara S+ tier with a rocket launcher on the sprint cup

after this dirt one a long one comes so no silence suzukas, which is good, but I dont have Narita Taishin nor Manhattan Cafe so I guess Im just fucked nonetheless

I've been focusing mostly to the monthly champions meetings usually, Team trails is just secondary to me

This is what I have for the cup currently which isn't great but it's usable for a ChanMe that's not that interesting to me
 
Having a lot of fun with MANT/Trackblazer/etc. so far - it completely cured my burnout on the game, towards the end of Unity I was doing 1 run or less a day, despite still feeling like I should try to prep for Aquarius cup. (I ended up winning A group cleanly with the stuff I made before it started, so whatever...)

I expected not to like MANT much - was worried about the run length and amount of menuing, but turns out that the more complex decision trees are a lot more interactive & stimulating than the prior two scenarios, it's not just braindead click the good trainings and up arrows. We'll see if this lasts long term, I may get tired of it eventually or soon, but I didn't like Unity at release and it stayed that way, so hopefully this one sticks.

If you're having trouble with the new scenario, this guide is a great starting point: https://uma.guide/guides/trackblazer
One of my friends worked on it, so I have to shill it. I'd definitely recommend setting up a few schedules like the examples given and then loading it each time and adjusting on the fly. There's a ton of other useful guides on the site, just click around and you'll find stuff like CM prep guides and support card/uma pull recommendations.

Here's a build I was able to make today, if it tests well (not sure if it meets stam requirement) and I don't get anything better, I may just run this on the next CM and focus on other characters like Kitasan + someone else.

Oh neat there's a thread for this, to the surprise of hopefully nobody that recognizes my profile pic I do play this game a fair amount and have also watched pretty much all forms of media consumable in regards to the series

I wouldn't call myself a "Meta player" but I do often put effort into CMs and TTs (Unless they're sprint or Dirt CMs cause then I have no chance sob), and I did just recently manage to pull my own Kitasan with a fair bit of luck and am now currently trying to figure out what the fuck is going on in MANT/Trackblazer, but so far I'm having a blast with it.

Obligatory showoffs even though neither are like super super amazing
