Prioritize Oguri Cap, Taiki Shuttle, and Silence Suzuka when selecting a 3-star character in Uma Musume Pretty Derby. These units excel in performance, adaptability, and long-term utility, particularly in challenging race types like Dirt, Mile, and Medium during early gameplay.
Top 3-Star Choices
- Oguri Cap:
- Dominates Medium, Mile, and Dirt races via inheritance.
- Highly effective in both PvE and PvP; strong breeding value.
- Requires robust support cards to smoothen training.
- Taiki Shuttle:
- Versatile Mile and Dirt specialist with Wits bonuses.
- Beginner-friendly training path and impactful leader skills.
- Silence Suzuka:
- Top-tier Escape build candidate; transitions into a sprinter later.
- Avoid if using her SSR support card, as they’re mutually exclusive.
Other Viable Options
- Special Week: Strong Long runner with stamina skills, but blocks her free SSR card.
- Mejiro McQueen: Early-game Long runner needing specialized support for style flexibility.
- Rice Shower: Niche pick with rare terrain skills; limited growth bonuses.
Avoid These Units
- Maruzensky: Restricted to Mile races; awkward skill and training curve.
- Tokai Teio: Story-rich but inefficient stat distribution.
- Symboli Rudolf: Overly reliant on specific setups; weak for early/mid-game.
