Starter Squishy FAQ
How do I unlock the Starter Squishy?
Default Once unlocked, you can switch to it from your mount list before each race — the mount you pick stays active for your next run.
Does the Starter Squishy's 5% Win Boost really matter?
Yes. Every win is worth more with the boost, and in a close race it can be the difference between 1st and 2nd. It also compounds with Power training — see the training guide for how boost and training stack.
Should I upgrade to a higher tier squishy as soon as possible?
Do not invest a single Gem. Save your Wins and Gems for the Common Squishy at 500 Wins. As a general rule, unlock the next tier once it is affordable: the win boost difference compounds over hundreds of races, so early upgrades pay off fastest.
