How good is boosted Mercury II medium?

[TenPercentWinRate]

Is it worth it to boost Mercury II medium? It seems like a good way to obtain similar characteristics of a medium-end hybrid rubber for dirt cheap.

mercury has very good spin but it doesn't have very good speed and you can increasing its speed by boosting it

It's surprisingly ok for a 5 dollar rubber. Still has to be broken in unless you put several layers of oil. Afterwards it's a nice allround rubber, but compared to any tensor it still lacks higher gears.
EDIT. Noticed you were talking hybrids. Well, for "Eurish" feeling hybrids - see the initial reply; compared to those that are more Chinese-like in character (Battle 2/3 etc.), boosted M2 underperforms spin-wise but is much easier to play.
