Morphology
sucktastic + attitude
The phrase is a slang blend of 'suck' (informally 'to be bad' or 'to be annoying') plus the emphatic suffix '-tastic' (from 'fantastic'), so the intended meaning is an intensified negative quality — an extremely bad or annoying attitude. A B1 learner who knows 'suck' and 'attitude' could plausibly infer this ironic intensification, but the playful, nonstandard '-tastic' formation and slang register make the mapping only partly predictable without exposure.
Etymology
The expression sucktastic attitude is a joking mix of suck and -tastic. Here suck means 'to be bad' and -tastic (from 'fantastic') adds the idea 'very', so the image is of someone being very bad or annoying, and that's why it describes a very poor or annoying attitude.
