Analysis
Section titled “Analysis”Tier D. A starter-box R Speed card you slot in until your first real Speed SR lands, then never touch again.
R Speed cards live in the filler bracket, and this one is no exception. You run it to plug a Speed slot when nothing better has dropped. The one thing going for it is the Friendship Bonus, which hits 20% at Lv40. For an R, that’s genuinely solid, and it’s the only reason the card sees a deck. With it on the board, Speed sessions actually pull weight.
The rest is bare. Speed Bonus is a flat +1 that doesn’t even show up until Lv40. Training Effectiveness caps at 5%. Race and Fan bonuses sit at the floor. Specialty Priority reaches 35 at Lv35, so at least it leans toward Speed training. No unique effect to speak of. The skill list is generic positional and distance hints: Right-Handed, Preferred Position, the Medium/Long straightaway and corner greens, plus Lone Wolf off the event. Fine as hint fodder. None of it shapes a build.
The competition is what sinks it. Speed gets trained more than any other stat, and the SR/SSR Speed pool runs deep with meta picks. A maxed-LB SR usually edges out a 0LB SSR, and both leave an R in the dust on raw efficiency.
- Pro: 20% Friendship at Lv40 is strong for the rarity.
- Pro: free, MLBs easily, 40% hint rate.
- Con: +1 Speed, no unique, no secondary stat support.
Bench it the second a halfway-decent Speed SR shows up. Don’t spend resources building it past what you need right now.
