Information above is for the Pisces Cup (CM11)
The Pisces Cup is a very long race measuring at 3,200m. To make sure your aces can survive and maximize their performance at the end, you'll ideally want around 1100 Stamina with 2 Gold Recoveries to be safe. If you can't hit this goal, it should be possible to win with at least 1000 Stamina, but with the risk of not being at their best during the late-race.
Aim for as much Wit as you can as well, especially for the Front Runners so they can maintain good positions and reliably activate skills throughout the race.

Above is the general recommendation for sparks and legacies in CMs.
The most important component to having strong Champions Meeting Umamusume is having strong legacies. This means maximizing your sparks and inheriting strong skills.
It is recommended to already have 2 strong native legacies already in your catalogue, but you have only 1 or none, we recommend you borrow a strong one by following a Trainer with a strong Star Umamusume. You can check to see if there are any suitable Umas you can borrow in the Friend ID Sharing Board below!
Emulate Races in Room Match
The best way to see how well your choice Champions Meeting Umamusume will be doing is by racing others in Room Match. You can participate in public lobbies where the held matches are set to closely emulate an upcoming Champions Meeting race.
You can also do this with private lobbies to train together with friends, or even in Clubs. The most common rule for setting these type of matches is:
- Rounds will always have only up to 9 players in a race.
- Random mood if you wish to emulate 1st and 2nd rounds.
- Great mood if you wish to emulate the final round.
Use Practice Mode
Practice mode, under Exhibition of the Races menu, became available on the release of the Half Anniversary in global. Compared to Room Matches, practice mode allows you to precisely pick the entrants of the race itself from a catalogue of saved Practice Partners.
Practice Partners can be obtained from partner shares in a Club, or by looking through an Uma's stats and checking if they have an available Partner ID. You can search for these Umas anywhere, but one of the more common places to obtain these IDs are through leaderboards in Team Trials.
Champions Meeting Mechanics
| Some information is based on existing Champions Meeting requirements from our JP team. |
Participation Requirements
| Champions Meeting Participation Requirements |
|---|
| ① Register 3 Veteran Umamusume to participate in the race.
② Have a team rank of E2 or higher. ⓘ You cannot have 2 identical Umamusume in the team. This includes the same Umamusume in different costumes. For example, you cannot have both Tokai Teio (Peak Joy) and Tokai Teio (Beyond the Horizon) in the same team. ⓘ You can change teams and racers per Entry Uma registration in an ongoing Champions Meeting. You can only swap during the Entry phase and not in the middle of the 5 race attempts after the entry. |
Choosing a League: Open or Graded
 Open League |
・Global: Only B or below Umamusume can participate. ・Little difference in rewards between rankings. |
|---|---|
 Graded League |
・No training grade restrictions.

To participate in Chamipions Meetings, you will need to choose a league and have 3 Veteran Umamusume of an eligible rank ready to participate. Graded League is the best choice for casual or competitive participation if you have a full team of B+ Umamusume and above.
With limitaitons placed in Open League, you will need invest more of careful min-maxing to sustain your rank while also outclassing your opponents. This means more careful consideration of your Support Cards and their Limit Break levels.
