Analysis
Section titled “Analysis”Tier D. A baseline launch-era Guts SSR with a capped friendship bonus and filler skills. Skip unless you’re desperate to fill a Guts slot.
Nobody builds around Guts, and this Special Week card gives you no reason to start. It’s a Jun 2025 Global launch SSR from the standard pool and it shows its age. Friendship Bonus tops out at 20%, which is under the 25%+ the meta cards sit at. Training Effectiveness only reaches 10%, and not until Lv45/50, so it’s dead weight until you’ve poured limit breaks into it. Mood Effect at 60% and Specialty Priority at 35 are both fine. Neither saves the card.
The Lv30 unique is thin: Guts Bonus +1 with Initial Guts +20. Stronger cards stack friendship or training percentages on top of their base kit. This one pads a stat you rarely need to push, and the lone Power Bonus is a flat +1 that barely registers.
The skills drag it down further. You get recovery and condition filler like Hydrate, Extra Tank, Wet Conditions, Rainy Days, with some late-surger niche picks thrown in. No premium speed proc, nothing worth chasing. Training events sprinkle balanced stats and weak hints.
- Pros: free-ish from standard rolls; hint coverage for recovery and wet-track builds; mood scaling holds up.
- Cons: friendship capped at 20%; training effectiveness arrives way too late; weak unique; off-type; forgettable skills.
If it falls into your standard pulls and you genuinely need Guts coverage, MLB it and forget about it.
