1000 Stamina for any running style is optimal if affordable. Allows you to worry less about Debuffers.
800 Stamina is generally a good number even with 1-2 Gold Recovery skills.
ⓘ Risks can be made with 700 Stamina. But beware of Debuffers that can cut this to 600.
600 Stamina and below is the danger zone for Medium races even with Gold Recovery Skills.

Stamina guidelines above are recommended if you registered for the Graded League in the Taurus Cup. For Open League, priorizing high Stamina is a must before any other stat.

Stamina Guide: What Does Stamina Do?

Stamina Recovery Stats

Skill Rarity Effect per Skill
Gold Recovery Gold Recovery Skill

ex. Swinging Maestro
Recovers approximately 180~200 Stamina.
White Recovery White Recovery Skill

ex. Corner Recovery ◯
Recovers approximately 50~60 Stamina.

The values above represent their effectiveness in a general sense. Different recovery skill effects and behavior will vary.

When aiming for maximum Speed and Power while having high Wit, it's expected that building high Stamina (especially more than 1000) in this scenario is a tall order.

This why it is recommended to supplement Stamina with Recovery Skills since they serve as efficient options to have if you cannot build enough stamina. Having them will also help pad your stamina against debuff skills.

Straightaway Recovery is a common cost-effective choice if you need a 3rd Stamina Recovery skill after 2 Gold Recovery skills.
Late Surgers don't have a dedicated Gold Recovery skill yet as of this writing. We recommend 2 general Gold Recovery skills for them in this case.
ⓘ Prioritize all acceleration Unique Skills first before Recovery uniques.

Star (★) ratings stand for priority. The higher the priority, the more we recommend you get that skill first over others.

Swinging Maestro is the usual go-to Recovery Skill for the Taurus Cup, having a high proc chances since it has more proc opportunity windows (corners). It is suggested to borrow SSR Super Creek's support card for this skill for a competitive build.

Other Recovery Skills such as Gourmand or Straightaway Recovery can follow as additions. Having more Recovery Skills will allow you to tank stamina debuffs such as Hesitant Pace Chasers.

A setup of 4 Speed and 2 Stamina is usually optimal for building your Aces in the Taurus Cup Champions Meeting. 3 Speed and 3 Stamina is also a possible setup, but the former usually allows more focus towards bigger Friendship Training in Speed to also maximize Power.

ⓘ Getting S and above (1000+) for all of the big 3 stats (Speed, Stamina, and Power) in URA Finale Scenario is possible, but requires extreme luck with maxed out Support Cards.

Adjust Stamina accordingly with Gold Recovery Skills.

When building for the Taurus Cup, prioritize Speed and Stamina Training. You'll want to get Speed Training facility level at Lv. 5 by early Senior Year (can be preferable to be before 2nd Summer Camp or Takarazuka Kinen) if you have Friendship gauges at max.

Adjust accordingly depending if you are lucky to have come across large Friendship Training stat gains in your earlier years, usually in Classic Year. But do your best in training both Speed and Stamina, then doing some Wit training regularly to hit 400 Wit for a stable skill proc rate.

Make sure to have at least near maximum energy on the turn before Summer Camp. This is to maximize Lv. 5 training during Summer Camp turns.

  • Summer Camp is usually best for training Stamina then Wit. Hit Speed training if the gains are gigantic (50+ or more) and there are no better options.
  • Hit Rest and Recreation ONLY if you are not 3/4s of energy and only at Good Mood or less when you enter Summer Camp.
  • Ensure you do NOT have Negative Status Conditions before entering Summer Camp, since conditions cannot be cured with the Infirmary locked.
