The umas aren't the problem. The game is all about the support cards. If you didn't pull a ton of Kitasan Black or get lucky with Super Creek, you're fucked for about 6 months.

Many of the best umas right now are the ones you get for free or 1-2* ones. Oguri Cap being the obvious exception. But you could have chosen her for free with your starting ticket. I just picked Taiki because I liked her design better and wanted another Dirt girl. But still, you can make a Gold Ship that can pass Oguri Cap...if you have good enough cards.
