Analysis
Section titled “Analysis”Tier D. Starter-grade R Speed filler that gets benched the second any SR Speed card lands in your box.
You run this only because you have nothing else. It’s the R Speed entry in Taiki Shuttle’s lineup and the whole kit reads like a placeholder. Friendship Bonus caps at 15% and Mood Effect at 25%, which are respectable ceilings. After that the card goes empty. Training Effectiveness tops out at a sad 5%. The lone stat bonus is a single point of Power that doesn’t even show up until level 40. Initial Friendship Gauge maxes at 20 points, and that’s a flat bond head start rather than a percentage, so it barely registers.
The skill list is the one thing that earns a second look. Hints cover Mile Straightaways and Shifting Gears alongside some passing and positioning skills, and the event hands you Straight Course plus Prepared to Pass. Fine cheap hint coverage for a mile Speed runner. Catch is you need Hint Frequency at 40% and the card fully maxed to level 50 before any of that matters.
Competition flattens it. Every SR Speed card brings real stat bonuses and stronger bond gains, and even an MLB SR covers most of what an unbuilt SSR does. Stack it against Kitasan, Bakushin, or a budget SR and there’s no case to make.
- Pro: cheap hints for mile Speed builds, solid Friendship and Mood ceilings
- Con: 1 Power as the only stat bump, anemic Training Effectiveness, useless past the opening weeks
Skip the pull. Don’t waste mats leveling it once an SR turns up.
