How to Gain More Fans

Participate in G1 Races to gain more fans in Umamusume: Pretty Derby. Learn more how to gain fans efficiently, all the recommended Umamusume, support cards, races as well as benefits of gaining more fans and how to check your current fan count.

How to Gain Fans Efficiently

Use Trackblazer Scenario to Easily Farm Fans

Trackblazer Result Point Goals

The new Trackblazer (MANT) scenario has no race goals and no Scenario Link, which means you can participate in any race you want without being restricted by a schedule, making it easy to farm fans compared to other scenarios.

Since you can race a lot in this career mode, it is easy to gain a lot of fans for your Umamusume, which can be boosted by Fan Bonus effect from certain Support Cards.

Trackblazer (Make a New Track) Scenario Guide

Buy the Glow Sticks from the Shop

Items Details
Glow Sticks Icon Glow Sticks Race fan gain +50%.
Cost: 15 Shop Coins

During the Trackblazer scenario, you can buy the Glow Sticks from the shop using the points you obtain from racing. This item will increase your fan count when you race, so make sure to buy this if you want to gain more fans quickly.

Win G1 Races in Career Mode

G1 Races

The main way to get fans is to participate in races, particulary in the G1 grade. G1 races give more fans than any other races, so make sure to raise the appropriate stats of your trainee to have higher chances of winning.

List of All Races (G1, G2, G3, EX)

Medium and Long Races Give More Fans

Medium and Long distance races give more fans compared to Sprint and Mile even in the same grade. Focus on entering these races to gain more fans, especially if you are training an Umamusume with high aptitude on Medium and Long races.

Ranking 2nd or Lower will Give Less Fans

Regardless of the grade of the race, there is a huge difference in the number of fans you gain between 1st place and lower. The lower you place, the fewer the amount of fans you get.

Make sure to rank first place in every race you enter by training the appropriate stats.

Training Guide: Which Stats to Train?

Use Support Cards with High Fan Bonus

Fan Bonus Card

The Fan Bonus effect of Support Cards will increase the fans that you gain from races if you use these cards during your Career. The current maximum Fan Bonus per support card is 20% (when fully uncapped), so it is possible to reach 120% Fan Bonus albeit will be difficult to obtain because of the Gacha system.

Another Umamusume that can easily gain many fans is El Condor Pasa, as she has an A aptitude for Mile and Medium, as well as in Turf tracks. She also has a B aptitude on Long and Dirt tracks, which can be easily improved by letting her inherit sparks.

Recommended Support Cards to Gain More Fans

Prioritize Cards with High Fan Bonus

The only known way to boost your Fan gain from race completions is by using Support Cards with the Fan Bonus. You can build your deck towards maximizing Fan Bonuses, but it is recommended to prioritize deck-building towards better training and stat gains instead.

Note that most cards with a Race Bonus also have a Fan Bonus in them.
