Uma Musume Reviews

This section will rate each uma and tell you how they’re ideally built. There will be many different categories they can be rated for: Style, Team Trials, Debuffer, and Parent. Aside from the Team Trials category, the rest will be aimed towards Champions Meeting.

The ranking criteria is as follows:

Runners: 1 - Pet Pick. There’s no reason to use this character except for character love. 2 - Usable. Worse than umas in 3, but can still compete. 3 - Average. More or less the same strength as Summer Maruzensky in the best case. 4 - Strong. Significantly stronger than Summer Maruzensky on certain tracks. 5 - Meta. In the top 5 umas for at least one track, or has similar strength to them.

Other styles are the same, except OG Oguri Cap instead of Summer Maruzensky. Summer Maruzensky releases later and is a strong Front Runner, but with nothing special going for her. Basically becoming the default choice when nobody else works particularly well.

Team Trials: 1 - This uma’s unique and both golds are inconsistent. 2 - This uma’s unique is inconsistent but one gold is consistent. (1200 points) 3 - This uma’s unique is consistent or both golds are consistent. (2400 points) 4 - This uma’s unique and one of her golds are consistent. (3600 points) 5 - This uma’s unique and both golds are perfectly consistent. (4800 points)

Parents: 1 - This skill isn’t worth buying. 2 - The skill is a consistent 0.15 speed or equivalent usefulness. 3 - The skill is a consistent 0.25 speed or equivalent usefulness. 4 - The skill is highly desirable for some umas, but not among the best available. 5 - The skill is the best inherit for some style on some track, basically mandatory.

Debuffer: Separated into the different types of debuffers, then a number given to show the total reduction the debuffer can provide with her kit.

While reading, use the character pages on Gametora as reference for what their skills, aptitudes, and bonuses are. These entries are currently ordered by release date. You can use CTRL+F to find the uma you’re looking for easier. Note that any mention of special events won’t occur in the MANT or Arc scenarios.

These reviews will frequently mention carry-over. If you don’t know what that is, check this section. If you’re not sure why acceleration is significant, check How Races Work.
