Umamusume Reroll Guide: Best Support Cards for the Perfect Start

Starting a new gacha game is a unique thrill, greeting you with a vibrant world and the promise of that first big summon. In most gacha games, your first pull is just for fun. In Umamusume: Pretty Derby, it’s the most important decision you’ll make for your long term success. A strong start is critical, and this Umamusume reroll guide is your blueprint. We’ll show you exactly which assets to target and how to reroll efficiently, ensuring your career begins with a massive advantage.

Why You Should Reroll: The Support Card Doctrine

The entire philosophy behind a successful reroll in Umamusume boils down to one simple, unshakeable rule: prioritize Support Cards over playable characters. This isn’t just a popular opinion, it’s a strategic conclusion baked into the very mechanics of the game.

Umamusume is, at its heart, a “raising sim.” Your main goal is to take a horse girl (“Uma”) through a training scenario. Before each run, you pick your character and, more importantly, a deck of six Support Cards. The character is the subject of that single training run. Once she’s done, you move on to the next. But the Support Cards? They are your permanent toolkit. You use that same deck of cards for every single character you train, over and over again.

This makes their value exponentially higher. A great character gives you one strong result. A great deck of Support Cards elevates the potential of your entire roster. They are the engine that drives your progress, giving you better stat gains, unlocking powerful race-defining skills, and triggering helpful events during training. Starting with a weak set of supports creates a cycle of mediocrity: your characters will be weaker, you’ll earn fewer rewards, and you’ll struggle to get better cards in the future. Rerolling is your chance to break that cycle before it even begins.

Furthermore, the game itself makes rerolling for characters a waste of time. Early on, you’re gifted a random high rarity (3-Star) character ticket and a 3-Star Character Selector Ticket, which lets you choose a top tier character from a list. The game essentially solves the character problem for you, signaling that the real depth lies in the strategic deck-building of your Support Cards.

How to Reroll in Umamusume: A Step by Step Field Manual

Now for the good news: rerolling in Umamusume is surprisingly fast and easy. The developers have built a system that lets you reset your data without having to reinstall the game. Here’s the most efficient way to do it.

1. Your First Run (The Tutorial): The very first time you launch the game, you’ll need to complete the tutorial. It takes about 15-20 minutes, and you should pay attention. It teaches you the core mechanics that you’re trying to optimize with this whole process.
2. Claim Your Gifts: Once you hit the home screen, find the mail or gift box icon and claim all of your launch and pre-registration rewards. This should give you a nice stash of Carats, the premium currency, enough for about 40 pulls.
3. Pull for Support Cards: Go to the “Scout” menu and pull exclusively on the Support Card banner. Do not, under any circumstances, spend your starter currency on the character banner.
4. Check Your Results: Look at the SSR (gold) and SR (silver) Support Cards you received. Compare them against the key targets we’ll discuss in the next section.
5. Reset Your Data: If you’re not happy with your pull, go back to the game’s title screen. Find the menu icon (usually three horizontal lines) and select “Delete User Data.” This will wipe your guest account instantly.
6. Repeat the Cycle: Relaunch the game. The best part? After the first time, you’ll be given the option to skip the tutorial entirely. Now, the reroll loop of starting, claiming gifts, pulling, and resetting can take as little as one to three minutes.

One critical piece of advice: reroll on a mobile device (or an emulator) first. There is a risk that the PC Steam client will permanently link your account to your Steam ID, making it impossible to reroll. The safest method is to perform the process on a mobile guest account, which can be deleted easily. Once you get a “golden” account you’re happy with, use the in-game “Data Link” function to create a user ID and password. You can then use those credentials to log in on any device, including Steam.

The Cornerstone Assets: Top Reroll Targets You Can’t Ignore

Your primary goal is to snag one, or ideally both, of two specific SSR Support Cards. These cards are considered the cornerstones of a strong start due to their immense power, flexibility, and long term value.

SSR Fine Motion (Wit/Intelligence)

Consistently ranked as a top tier reroll target, Fine Motion is a powerhouse of utility and efficiency.

• Long Term Value: She remains a relevant and powerful card for a very long time, meaning your initial investment will pay off for months or even years.
• Immediate Power: She is incredibly effective right out of the box with just a single copy (0 Limit Breaks).
• Strategic Role: As a “Wit” support, she enables a powerful training strategy. Training the Wit stat not only helps skills activate in a race but also recovers your character’s energy. This means you have to use the “Rest” command less often, giving you more turns to actually train stats and making your characters much stronger overall.

SSR Super Creek (Stamina)

The second pillar of a perfect reroll is Super Creek, whose value is defined by a single, game breaking skill.

• The “Maestro” Skill: Super Creek grants a Gold rarity skill often called “Maestro,” which provides a massive burst of stamina recovery during a race. This skill is so powerful that it dramatically lowers the Stamina stat needed to complete medium and long distance races, which are notoriously difficult for new players. It lets you focus on training other stats like Speed and Power instead.
• Limit Break Importance: Unlike Fine Motion, Super Creek gets a significant power boost from duplicates. At one Limit Break (1LB), she unlocks a “Stamina Bonus” that makes her much more effective. While a single copy is good, getting a duplicate is a high priority goal.

The Future is Coming: The Kitasan Black Imperative

There’s one more piece to this puzzle. Players know from the game’s history on other servers that a Speed type Support Card named Kitasan Black is the most dominant, meta defining card of the game’s first year or two. She is expected to be released just a few weeks after the global launch.

Her power is unmatched, and she becomes a must have for almost every training deck. However, she absolutely needs multiple duplicates (ideally three or more) to be effective. This creates a clear strategy: reroll now for Fine Motion and/or Super Creek, and then save every single Carat you earn for the Kitasan Black banner. Don’t wait to reroll on her banner; secure your non Speed foundational cards now, then go into extreme saving mode.

Building Your Deck: Secondary SSRs and High Value SRs

A great account isn’t just about one or two superstar cards. A truly strong start includes a solid supporting cast. While rerolling, keep an eye out for these valuable additions.

Several early game Speed SSRs like Biko Pegasus, Sakura Bakushin O, and Tokai Teio are great pickups. They will make clearing early content much easier before Kitasan Black arrives. The Power SSR Vodka is another solid card that complements Speed training well.

However, do not overlook the power of SR (Super Rare) cards. A fully maxed out SR is often much better than an SSR with no duplicates. Because SRs are more common, you have a realistic chance of pulling the multiple copies needed to uncap them. Getting a top SSR plus 3-4 copies of a great SR can be a huge win. Be on the lookout for duplicates of these key SRs:

• Wit: Marvelous Sunday (often called one of the best SRs at launch), Agnes Tachyon
• Speed: Shinkou Windy
• Stamina: Manhattan Cafe
• Power: Nishino Flower

The Finish Line: Defining Success and Using Your Vouchers

Rerolling can be a grind, with some players spending hours chasing the perfect start. To avoid burnout, it’s best to have tiered goals.

• Tier C (Good Enough): One copy of either SSR Fine Motion or SSR Super Creek. This gives you a solid foundation.
• Tier B (Strong Start): One copy of both Fine Motion and Super Creek, OR two copies of one of them (1LB). This is a highly recommended target that will give you a major advantage.
• Tier A (Excellent Start): A Tier B account that also includes another useful SSR (like Biko Pegasus) and/or several copies of top tier SRs.
• Tier S (The God Roll): The dream account for the most dedicated players, featuring multiple duplicates of both Fine Motion and Super Creek. This represents the absolute peak of a starting account’s potential but can take an extreme amount of time.

Once you’ve settled on an account, you’ll have two character tickets: one random SSR ticket and one 3-Star Selector ticket. There is a crucial order to using these: USE THE RANDOM TICKET FIRST. This is simple risk management. If you use the selector first and then get the same character from the random ticket, you’ve wasted its value. By opening the random one first, you know what you have and can then use the selector to pick a different character you want, guaranteeing two unique top tier Umas to start with.

For the Selector ticket itself, while you should always consider picking your favorite character, the strategic consensus points to one standout choice: Oguri Cap.

From Reroll to Race Day: Leveraging Your Head Start

Securing that powerful start is just the beginning. Now you have to use it correctly. The first and most important rule is the one we mentioned earlier: save for Kitasan Black. After your initial reroll pulls, do not spend any more Carats on any banner. Hoard everything you earn for her arrival.

For your first training run, pick a straightforward character like Sakura Bakushin O, who is easy to get and focuses on simple Sprint races. Build your deck with the amazing SSRs you just rerolled for (Fine Motion/Super Creek), fill the rest with your best Speed cards, and borrow another strong Speed card from a friend. During training, focus on raising the friendship gauges of your Support Cards early on. Once their gauges are orange, prioritize the rainbow glowing “friendship training” sessions, as they provide massive stat boosts.

By investing a few hours into a calculated reroll, you have set your account up for long term success. You’ve transformed a potential struggle into a period of confident progression, armed with the best starting toolkit. As you look toward the future and the challenge of high level competitive races, knowing which characters and cards truly dominate the meta in our comprehensive tier list will be your next key to victory. With this head start and a clear strategy, you are now ready to dominate the track.
