Distributional training provides collective supervision for one-step visual generation by matching real and generated features in frozen representation spaces. We introduce a unified theoretical framework that separates distribution modeling from matching discrepancy and connects global objectives to pointwise feature updates through Wasserstein gradient flow. Under this framework, FD-Loss and Gaussian-kernel Drifting are recovered through Gaussian optimal transport and kernel-density-based KL matching, respectively. The framework motivates MGFlow, which models feature distributions with Gaussian mixtures at an adjustable granularity between global moments and sample-based representations. MGFlow supports both optimal transport and score-based matching, and couples mass-constrained sample assignment with paired component updates to address mode collapse that mixture expressivity alone does not resolve. On ImageNet $256\times256$, MGFlow substantially surpasses the FD-Loss baseline, achieving state-of-the-art results with 1.45 $\mathrm{FDr}^6$ on pMF-H and 1.64 on JiT-H. For text-to-image generation, MGFlow post-trains FLUX.2 [klein] 4B into a one-step generator that outperforms the original four-step model on both GenEval and PickScore.
