After a couple of races (47 to be exact), I found my strongest & best Gigling in @playgigaverse Gigling Races 🔥
Gonna call him Volt. Lil bro is a legendary chobo male. Right now, he has 1665 Elo with $6 in winnings. More to come soon.
Also, a few corrections to my previous guide:
- Right now, all V1 Gigling traits are shown, but their tiers are still revealed gradually as you race. Every 5th race is a milestone, but a reveal isn't guaranteed.
- As I said, you can only see track preferences while in a race, but you need to watch your Gigling's performance to figure out which weather suits it best. It isn't shown directly anywhere. You need to feel your pet.
Stats & traits (you now know all of them, but not their tiers) are the most important things for your lil bro or sis. So take a closer look at them if you want to win, choose the best possible race distances based on them & know when to throw Butterflies in order to get the maximum boost.
GLHF. See you on the track! #gigarace #gigaverse

A few days ago, Gigling Races launched on @AbstractChain ✳️
Yesterday, I played the new game on my stream, dug into the mechanics & really enjoyed it.
Here is a starter guide for everyone who wants to start playing & winning with their Giglings 👇
- Your pet's rarity & faction matter a lot. Rarity affects trait count & stat rolls. Higher rarity = better stats more traits.
At the start of every race, each Gigling's four core stats are rolled based on its base stats. Better rarity = a higher floor for those rolls. Stats are revealed gradually as you race your Gigling.
Traits are special abilities that activate under specific conditions. For instance, a knack for shrugging off bad track conditions. Better rarity = more traits. Each trait unlocks every 5 races played on a Gigling.
Depending on your faction, your Gigling may receive boosts on specific parts of the track. For example, if your Gigling belongs to the Athena faction, stepping onto a matching track section can improve its performance.
- Track preferences (cold, average, hot), traits & stats are revealed gradually as you race. So take notes, especially on track preferences, as you can only see them while racing. Watch your stats & wait for the first trait to be revealed (traits unlock every 5 races played on a single Gigling).
That’s why I suggest playing your first games in free mode to practice, take notes & learn more about your pet.
- Every Gigling has a limited number of races. For now, the cap is 60 races. After that, it can no longer participate in races & can only be used for breeding. Keep this in mind & use your pets wisely.
- Use items: Dung & Butterflies. Dung slows down opponents, while Butterflies boost your own Gigling. Items are queued, so make sure to use them in advance & with consideration for track conditions.
- Finishing in higher positions earns more Derby Stubs (which give Abstract XP). If you are racing in ETH staked races, you will also have a chance to win a share of the jackpot pool if you finish in first place.
Hope this practical advice helps & see you on the track!

Calling Illuvials saved from @illuviumio Deathmatch a Rescue gave me an idea. Let's make an Illuvial rescue. A sanctuary of sorts!

Gigling Racing is live from @playgigaverse! Been toying around since launch, here's the deal:
Users create races and enter their Giglings. You don't need to have a Gigaverse account to join, but you do to create a race. There's an ongoing jackpot and winning a race gives you a shot to win.
What I'm impressed with so far is how user-driven everything is. You can configure almost everything about a race from buy-in to payouts, length, entry requirements, etc.
The game itself is more meta/management. You learn more about your Giglings as you race them, and creating/entering races where they'll do well is the most important factor in winning.
There's a LOT of depth actually, with stats, traits, race conditions, etc. and I'm interested to see how it plays out across the whole economy - items can be used in-game to buff/nerf, and Gigling traits are viewable on OS. If the game gains traction, we could see a lot of factors moving at once!
There is a separate XP pool for this (like MoG) so it has the potential to be a real driver. Team has said this first week will be a bit of a beta test and adjustments are actively being made.
GLHF, happy racing!

I just spent the past 20 minutes rewatching my Giglings race in the new @playgigaverse racing and here are my takeaways.
Lets get straight into it, and don't forget to bookmark.
The 4 traits are start, finish, stamina and speed.
Speed is easily the most important and will determine how fast your racers are overall. What I didn't realise, is that stamina is incredibly underrated. So stamina prevents speed from dropping over time and is highly relevant for longer distances. What you might not know is that your stamina can be so good your speed slowly increases, or maybe its a hidden trait.
This is relevant because I tracked the speeds for start and finish and they last a single segment. For reference, a sprint can last around 14 segments. So these stats although relevant for a tiny race such as a dash, are practically useless for longer distances.
When racing your Giglings I recommend carefully comparing the weather and your speeds in the centre field, if these speeds are consistently below 20 m/s, maybe try insanely short distances. If they are 20, and climb over time go for massive races, but weather can up your speeds 5-10%, and if the stars align on weather and faction segments, you can consistently win with a decent Gigling.
The traits are much more unknown to me. I saw my Gigling race and use a seemingly different trait every single time, albeit similar styling. These can feel somewhat random, but I think ELO will centralise around good trait qualities.
Anyways I hope this was helpful, I look forward to doing more research tomorrow!
