The PERFECT CAM

By Auzy63, 15-01-2019

So... where to begin? Ive always loved watching this guy IRL, and i NEVER packed an icon before, so i always had it in the back of my mind to save up to do this sbc. Thankfully i got some good stuff from the league upgrade packs and was able to do him for around 400k this past weekend and used him for almost my entire weekend league. My first ever Elite finish thanks to this guy!!

I was skeptical at first, as i saw so many complaints about his finishing. I use Costa on hunter, and his 80 finishing has not once been an issue for me! The thing with Rui is the way he FEELS. Like I can't explain it, you have to experience using him for yourself. His passes are pinpoint, finesse for days, hes alot stronger than the stats suggest, and wins his share of air duels. Trust, you can't go wrong with this guy. I do recommend either hunter or hawk as his base finishing/acceleration is a TAD too low. 10/10 will keep on my squad till FIFA 20

The Maestro

If you are looking for a great CAM this is your man. His passing and set pieces are unbelievable, his ball control is amazing and the ability to create chances is fantastic. I tried this card with sniper and deadeye due to his low base finishing. Both looked and felt good in game but deadeye was a bit better for me. He is always in the right position, his attacking runs are really good and his stamina lasts for 90+ mins. He...

Well, this was the second time I got Rui Costa via SBC, and if I get the chance I will do it again in Fifa 20, just the perfect CAM.Although you have to spend a few hundred coins and maybe some untradable players in order to complete the SBC, Rui Costa is absolutely worth it to me: Brilliant stamina (believe me, the way I play, I really need a CAM that doesn't go "red" within the 90 minutes);

Controls the Midfield

I honestly was hesitant to do his SBC. I saw his card and thought it was decent, but I didn't exactly like his card on World Cup Mode last FIFA. I watched a few reviews on him then I decided to do his SBC. It was totally worth it. I have played 15 games with him using a Sniper chem style and in those games he has scored 18 goals and 6 assists. For me he controls the whole attack and the tempo of the game. I really have enjo...
