Best Mayano Top Gun Stats in Umamusume

Umamusume Mayano Top Gun Stats

Mayano Top Gun has surprisingly great ratings for all racing styles, but her best two are Front Runner and Pace Chaser. She also runs Medium/Long races, so you should prioritize Speed and Stamina as Mayano Top Gun's most important stats. 1000 Speed is the ideal target, and you can get away with 700-800 Stamina as long as you unlock some recovery skills during her career.

After those stats, focus on training Power, especially if you're using Mayano Top Gun as a Pace Chaser. Those long races have plenty of corners, and a Pace Chaser has to break out of the pack at the last moment to secure the win. That's what Power is for, so don't neglect it. Ideally, Mayano Top Gun should end up with 800 Power or higher.

Guts and Wit are still important for Mayano Top Gun, but they're not nearly as crucial as the others. She gets a 10% bonus to Guts growth, and a Mayano Top Gun Pace Chaser build should have at least a little bit of Guts training mixed in for good measure. Wit is also important for skill activation, but you don't need that high of a number. Aim for 300 of each, but train Guts a bit higher if you're primarily a Pace Chaser.

Best Support Cards for Mayano Top Gun

The best Mayano Top Gun Support Card deck includes two Speed cards, two Stamina cards, and two Power cards. You can swap out one of the Stamina/Power cards with a Wit or Guts card if you have some good SSR ones, too.

These are some of the best Support Cards to use with Mayano Top Gun:

  • Kitasan Black (Speed)

You can also mix in a Friend Support Card like Tazuna Hayakawa if you have one, since that will make training much easier. It's also a good idea to use your borrowed Support Card slot to steal someone's Super Creek or Kitasan Black, since those two are incredibly strong with Mayano Top Gun.
