In the game Umamusume: Pretty Derby, it’s advisable for every player to hold onto a specific support card – none other than Kitasan Black.
Kitasan Black, introduced in Umamusume: Pretty Derby in 2021, has been a commanding Speed support card, maintaining a top-tier status due to her power and adaptability across the game.
This card is designed specifically for speed training. It offers significant stat increases, superior racing abilities, and consistent relationship development, making it a popular choice in almost all PvE and PvP scenarios.
When is Kitasan Black coming to global?
There is no confirmed release date for the Kitasan Black SSR Speed Support card.
Instead, referring to the Japanese release schedule, the card made its first appearance merely five weeks following the launch, at its special event which took place on March 30, 2021.
As a dedicated gamer, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that Cygames sticks to their usual pattern. If they do, then it looks like we might be seeing the arrival of the new character’s banner somewhere in the latter half of July or perhaps even early August. Can’t wait!
Why is it meta?
For several years, Kitasan Black has been a reliable choice in top-tier Japanese accounts. Despite the introduction of newer support cards, very few have managed to match her stability and influence. Her set of abilities includes:
- Massive Speed training boosts
- Consistent bond gains
- Amazing skills
- Excellent event bonuses
She is ideally suited for any construction at the forefront, as her base statistics and compatibility allow her to adapt to teams that are not part of the mainstream meta as well.
Regardless if you’re preparing for the URA Finals, engaging in PvP battles, or striving to optimize your preferred equestrian character, Kitasan is versatile and suits most competition scenarios.
