Umamusume Pretty Derby Nice Nature 2

Overview

    • Distances: Medium (A), Long (A), Mile (C), Short (E)
    • Track: Turf (A), Dirt (G)
    • Strategies: Late Surger (A), Pace Chaser (B), avoid Leader/Front
    • Stat Bonuses: +20% Power, +10% Wit
    • Unique Skill: Nice Nature’s Cheer – Boosts acceleration in the final corner if in 3rd place or lower, ideal for Late Surger.
    • Key Notes: Shines in Medium/Long races as a Late Surger. Relies on recovery skills for stamina and debuffs to disrupt rivals. Her “Bronze Collector” trait boosts rewards for 3rd-place finishes in non-target G1 races.

Stat Goals

  • Speed: 900–1000+ to stay competitive and avoid falling too far back early.
  • Stamina: 450–500 (Medium), 600+ (Long). Use recovery skills to offset lower stamina.
  • Power: 700+ for strong late-race surges, boosted by her 20% Power bonus.
  • Wit: 400–500 for skill activation and mood stability, aided by her 10% Wit bonus.
  • Guts: 250–300, only if using a Guts deck or needing late-race stamina.

Running Style Strategy

  • Medium/Long Races: Use Late Surger. Stay mid-pack, then trigger Nice Nature’s Cheer in the final corner (3rd or lower). Needs Wit (400+) and recovery skills.
  • Pace Chaser: Viable in Medium races if Late Surger is crowded. Stay closer to the front but still aim for 3rd at the final corner.
  • Avoid: Leader/Front styles; they don’t suit her skill or stats.
