The Tokyo Subway Ticket can be useful for visitors who expect to make several Metro and Toei Subway trips in a short period, but it is not automatically the best ticket for every itinerary.
What does the ticket cover?
The current product covers Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway lines. It does not cover JR lines such as the Yamanote Line, so check the routes you actually plan to use before buying.
Who benefits most?
The pass makes the most sense when your sightseeing days use subway-heavy routes and you expect to enter and exit the network repeatedly. It can also reduce the small mental friction of paying separately for each ride.
Who may not need it?
If you mainly use JR lines, walk between nearby neighborhoods, or make only a few train trips each day, a dedicated subway pass may not match your itinerary.
24, 48 or 72 hours?
Klook currently lists 1-day, 2-day and 3-day options. Choose based on the continuous period when you will actually use the subway most heavily rather than simply matching the total length of your Tokyo stay.
Build the itinerary first
A quick way to decide is to list your hotel and must-do attractions, map the likely routes, and check how often Tokyo Metro or Toei Subway appears. If most journeys use those networks, the pass becomes more attractive.

Your hotel location changes how useful a subway pass feels. Before booking your Tokyo base, compare Shinjuku vs Ueno for transport convenience and sightseeing access.
Bottom line
Do not buy the pass just because you are visiting Tokyo. Buy it when your actual routes are concentrated on Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway and the convenience fits your travel style.
