Analysis
Section titled “Analysis”Tier C. Early-game Speed filler that holds a deck slot until your first real SR/SSR, and nothing more.
It’s an R Speed card, so grade it as filler. No unique effect, and every bonus caps low. Friendship Bonus tops out at 15%, Mood Effect at 25%, Training Effectiveness at a measly 5%, plus a single point of Power Bonus once you hit Lv40. The Initial Friendship Gauge reaches 25, which nudges bond along a little earlier but doesn’t fake being a friendship card.
The hints are the one part that actually earns its slot. Hint Levels go to 2 with 30% frequency at max, and the skill pool is wide: corner work like Corner Adept and Long Corners, recovery in Corner Recovery and Straightaway Recovery and Extra Tank, plus positioning options including Front Runner Straightaways, Dodging Danger, and Focus. Eight skills total, which is a solid hint kit for a free card.
Then reality hits. Any SR or SSR Speed card beats it on raw stat gain and hands you a unique effect this one flat-out doesn’t have. Speed is the most-contested stat on Global, so the upgrades show up quick.
- Good for: cheap Speed coverage, a genuinely useful corner/recovery hint package, hitting 15% Friendship and 25% Mood by cap.
- Rough spots: zero unique effect, near-useless Training Effectiveness ceiling, one-point stat bonus, beaten by every higher-rarity Speed option.
Don’t spend pulls chasing it. Run the free copy, bench it the second something stronger lands.
