What is the best Mejiro McQueen build guide for Umamusume: Pretty Derby?

Mejiro McQueen is inherently strong when it comes to running longer distances, so you should focus on maximizing her potential. Avoid shorter races, as those are not completely suitable for this character and could hinder her performance. It is also important to note that McQueen performs best on turf tracks, so avoid using her on dirt paths.

Here is a quick overview of the best Mejiro McQueen build in Umamusume: Pretty Derby.

Primary stats: As a long-distance runner, McQueen needs a lot of Stamina, so make sure to enhance it. Also, try to increase her Guts stat to overpower opponents on the track. This will allow the character to stay in the race longer and eventually get a top rank.
Secondary stats: Two other crucial stats, Speed and Power, are important for the racer because they can help make her more balanced. Without the necessary Speed and Power, her ability to recover Stamina fast won't be as useful.
Optional stat: Leveling up the Wits stat will ensure a character's ability is triggered at the right time, helping them win races.
