In Umamusume: Pretty Derby, Support Cards are key for training your characters, and Speed Support Cards are the heavy hitters since they usually dominate your deck. With tons of options out there, it’s tough to figure out which ones are worth keeping. This article breaks down the top SR and SSR Speed Support Cards and explains how they can level up your Career runs.
Note: A fully maxed-out (MLB) SR card will outshine an unupgraded or 1LB SSR card.
1) Kitasan Black
Distance: Long
Style: Front RunnerKitasan Black is hands-down the best Speed Support Card in the game and will stay that way for a long time. It’s got great recovery and speed skills that work for most umas, no matter the distance or style. Every skill on this card is useful, with no duds.
Plus, it permanently lowers training failure chances through an event. Pick the bottom option in the Ah, Home Sweet Home event to get the Practice Perfect condition, which cuts down on training mishaps. Her chain events also boost mood, and choosing the bottom option in the Ah, Friendship event gives you +10 Energy.
2) Special Week
Distance: Long
Style: Pace Chaser and Late Surger
At MLB, Special Week offers a 10% Race Bonus and a 35% Friendship Bonus. Her downside is a low starting Friendship gauge, but the Charmed condition can fix that fast. She also comes with solid skills like Homestretch Haste, Gourmand, Late Surger Savvy, and Outer Swell.
3) Sakura Bakushin O
Distance: Sprint
Style: Front Runner and Pace Chaser
Sakura Bakushin O is all about Sprint races, but her real strength is the 10% Race Bonus at MLB. This boosts the stats and skill points you earn after every race.
Stacking Race Bonuses from multiple cards basically gives you free stat and skill point gains without burning energy. Aim for a total of 35% Race Bonus with your cards to maximize your race rewards.
4) Nishino Flower
Distance: Sprint and Mile
Style: Pace Chaser
Nishino Flower brings a few useful skills for all race types and styles, plus she can unlock the Charming condition through an event. Pick the top option in the Warmth, Love, and Lunch event to snag it.
Running both Sweep Tosho and Nishino Flower in your deck ups your odds of getting Charming early, which speeds up Friendship Training a ton. Key skills include Standard Distance, Firm Conditions, and Beeline Burst.
5) Sweep Tosho
Distance: Medium
Style: End Closer
Sweep Tosho comes with some End Closer and debuff skills that you probably won’t use much, so you can skip her hints. The real reason to grab her is for boosting Friendship Bond levels with all your Support Cards fast.
Choose the bottom option in the Wonderful Mistake! event to get the Charming condition. This lets you build Friendship Bonds quicker during training, which is huge for unlocking Friendship Training early. Sweep also has some handy skills like Lone Wolf, Prudent Positioning, and Murmur.
