Level 4 beatsticks that are only beatsticks should not be UR. They're almost never worth it. Not only do they often get powercreeped out by an N or R card in the very next pack or so, but they're not even extremely valuable when they're freshly released.
Are there that many competitive decks with Blazing Inpachi that wouldn't also work with Great Angus? These marginals gains in ATK rarely tilt a game one way or the other in a meta swarming with non-battle removal like SRH and tribute to the doomed, and even moreso swarming with cards that change battle positions like econ, security orb and windstorm that are all staples. Not to mention Mirror wall or even wild tornado for goodness sakes.
Obviously the higher attack on any monster the better but let's be real, you won't win many games with an 1850 beater that you wouldn't have won with an 1800 or even a 1700 in its place, especially if those weaker monsters have actual useful effects or a better DEF. It's all just superficial. Of course the first 1900ATK level 4 should be rarer than most but I think SR is sufficient.
Not to mention that most meta decks hit the field with at least 1 Level 5+ 2000+ ATK monster (usually higher) on turn 1-2 anyway so whether you have a 1900 or a 1700 beater out there you're getting curbstomped without backrow or a monster effect regardless
Well, to be fair, an UR on a minibox is the same as SR, you will only get 1 in the whole box, and I think it's easier to get 1UR from a mini box than 3 <specific> SR, You may notice this if you have bough previous miniboxes, it's all luck overall, but me and my friends got 3 Phoenix before 3SRH
It should be R rarity tbh. Its just a noob bait 1900 ATK beater with huge drawback of being easily die after attacking. What can it do against top tier deck? None. Is it have potential for a new decent deck or improve any currently available deck? Nope. It offers nothing it all. Its worse than some actual R cards in the box like Deep Diver, Slushy, even Gagagigo and Gemini Lancer
They don't have to be ultra powerful but In need theory they should be the best cards in the game, which you can certainly argue this card is not one of. In fact, you could probably list several SR and maybe even a couple R/N cards that are superior to this card. For fairness you could even use cards in boxes of the same size like the SR super rush headlong which should probably be an UR instead
That's a good point. Technically speaking, you have the same odds of pulling this card as you have to pull any of the SR cards (1 out of however many packs you have left because there's only one of each SR In a box). With that said, there's only two spots for URs in a box, only two spots for cards that in theory are of of the highest caliber - why waste one spot on such a mediocre card?
