With Maruzensky having a B-rank aptitude for sprint races, it might be tempting to build her as a sprinter. Unfortunately, that isn't the case as two of her skills are focused on Mile distance races. If you require another sprinter, we strongly recommend other trainees suited for sprint distances, such as Curren Chan or Sakura Bakushin O.
If you have decided to build Maruzensky as a Mile trainee, consider acquiring the materials necessary to unlock her potential. Her third and fifth potential skills are particularly well-suited for mile races, making them a valuable investment.
Regardless of whether you are preparing her for Mile or Medium distance races, it is essential to allocate a few skills to Medium distance skills, as her career will include participation in several Medium distance races.

Maruzensky likes to stay at the Front of Mile races, so having high Speed and Stamina is a must. Improve her Power to help with acceleration, as well as her Wits to help activate her skills, especially during the final part of a race.
It is important to note that if you cannot reach the stats recommended above, you can instead aim for a similar stat distribution. You can then compensate for the missing stats using skills. Additionally, if you are only planning on clearing a career run with Maruzensky then you can aim for lower stat numbers, as the stats above are a baseline for Team Trials.
For Maruzensky, we recommend a 3 Speed, 2 Power, 1 Stamina deck which prioritizes giving her as much speed as possible. You can also swap a Speed card for a Wit card if you want, as this can help increase her Wit for better skill activation.
These cards will help Maruzensky level her needed Stats (especially with Rainbow/Friendship Training), as well as provide some needed skills like Final Push and Homestretch Haste.
| Alternate Cards | ||
|---|---|---|
Mayano Top Gun (Cute + Cute = ?) Rarity: SR Type: Stamina Great general-purpose Stamina card |
Marvelous Sunday (A Marvelous ☆ Plan) Rarity: SR Type: Wit General-purpose speed skills and debuffs |
Mihono Bourbon (Pal-Assisted Training) Rarity: SR Type: Power Strong Front Runner skills |
Sweep Tosho (Lamplit Training of a Witch-to-Be) Rarity: SR Type: Speed General Speed card for stat training |
If you do not have the cards from the recommended deck, you can replace them with a similar stat card that provides skills that Maruzensky needs. These can be SSR cards, or even SR cards. Above are some of the SR cards that you can use in place of SSR Support cards.
| Recommended | |
|---|---|
| 12★ Stamina 6★ Power |
|
| 3★ Front Runner 3★ Medium |
For Legacy Sparks, we recommend trying to find Stamina and Power sparks to help her stay at the front as a Front Runner in Mile and Medium races. For race length sparks, it's important to get a Mediums spark, as almost half of her career races are Medium length races.
For running style sparks, prioritize Front Runner sparks to push it up from A to S rank.
You can use either your own Veterans, or borrow the ones from your friends. If you do not have Veterans with full sparks, you can go with whatever you have access to.
| Great | |
|---|---|
| Good |
When picking Legacies, try to select compatible legacies, as they increase the chance of inheriting additional sparks during the Inheritance events. This is not required, but is highly recommended.
If you do not have access to fully compatible legacies, it is enough to ensure that you have at least good compatibility with your selected legacies.

Swinging Maestro
|
Professor of Curvature
|
Straightaway Acceleration
|
Homestretch Haste
|
Straightaway Adept
|
Acceleration
|
Maruzensky is a Front Runner, so she will mostly need speed and acceleration skills, with some stamina skills to round everything off. Acceleration can help her go faster mid-race, while Homestretch Haste can help in closing off a race, especially when she's at the front.
Straightaway Adept and Straightaway Acceleration are both strong skills that can help her keep her lead throughout the race, while Swinging Maestro will give her the stamina she needs to keep going.
If you cannot get the recommended skills, you can replace them with similar skills that you have access to. You will just need to make sure that Maruzensky can activate said skills in a race.

| A dashing Umamusume with a sisterly demeanor and a retro way of speaking. She is a speed demon who adores the pure joy of the wind in her face. On the road, her hot rod is the one burning rubber, but in a race, it's her own two feet tearing up the track. Despite her tremendous power, she isn't pompous, and is well-liked by everyone. | ||

Please note this guide has mistaken the activation conditions for both groundwork and Shooting for Victory. Groundwork needs 3 skills at minimum to activate at the start of the race to proc the activation conditions. Only two skills on her list will activate at the start being firm conditions and left handed, you need one more skill. Shooting for Victory requires you to be in the front half of the pack yes, but it requires you to be 3rd place or further back, bad for all front runners.
