How is everyone doing?

Everyone is working hard on training for LoH, aren't you?
I see many posts about LoH from people I follow, and I enjoy reading them 😊 I read everyone's articles and use them as a reference for my own training.

Now, following my previous Oguri Cap, I have trained Daiichi Ruby. Everything except stamina is maxed out, and I have acquired all the speed and acceleration skills that appeared. Since I have also obtained the gold skills for everyone, even if I were to get the "Sharp" trait, there isn't much room for further improvement 😗

My only regrets are that I have few passive skills, I couldn't acquire "Left Turn," "Inner Lane Expert," "Outer Lane Expert," etc., and that my leg style aptitude didn't reach S.

Since there shouldn't be much more room for growth, I am thinking of training Still in Love or Nishino Flower next 🤔

【How to Determine Which Support Cards You Need】

Getting to the main topic, how do you decide which support cards you want?
I am not an oil tycoon, so I cannot pull on gachas until I have maxed out every support card 😥
Therefore, I need to be very careful in deciding which support card gacha to pull on.

By the way, regarding Uma Musume, I haven't evaluated them much in my previous articles, but I personally believe that for Uma Musume themselves, "you should just pull for the ones you like" 😊
On the other hand, since support cards are deeply involved in the training process itself, I want to be careful and make sure I identify and pull for the support cards I truly need.

So, I use the following spreadsheet.
By using this, you can distinguish between support cards that are fine to just rent and support cards that are better to pull for in the gacha 😊

When you open the link, you will see that it consists of two sheets.

Basically, you enter information in column A for the "Support Card Name", and you input the friend support cards you use.

And then, on the 【By Distance/Leg Style】 sheet, you select the friend support cards from the pull-down list for each leg style and distance.

Then, the rental rate will be displayed in column B of the [Support Card Name] sheet.

The higher the rental rate (greater than 1), the more versatile the support card is, meaning it can be used for various strategies, distances, and track conditions. In the case of this image, support cards that meet this criteria include Symboli Rudolf, Rhine Kraft, and Silence Suzuka.

On the other hand, support cards with a rental rate of 1 or less are often limited to specific strategies, distances, or track conditions, and I believe it is better to rely on rentals for these cards rather than forcing yourself to max-limit break them yourself.

So, in the case of this image, the conclusion is that it is best to pull on the pickup support card gacha when
“Symboli Rudolf”, “Rhine Kraft”, or “Silence Suzuka” are featured. 😊

This is how I decide whether or not to pull on support card gachas. 😗 By the way, for the latest support cards, I sometimes use the “Uma Musume Simulator” to verify if they can truly be used for specific strategies and distances. 😊

So, that was how to determine which support cards you need.
How do you all determine it? If you have any good tips on how you do it, I would be happy if you could share that information in the comments. ⤴️
