Player Review

90 - Winter Refresh
5.0
Lion rawr XD
By srice8128, 24-02-2020

So. I knew when home boy Zlatan got a banging card, it was one that I must pick up. I've used his best version in every iteration of FIFA, so I was prepared to shell out whatever the cost was for him. When he was first released, I was scared, initial poor reviews from people I trust (marshall89 and futbin review), so I was hesitant pulling the trigger. I waited for his price to drop, and picked him up on bid at 910K. What a steal! I have used 94 Ronaldo, Shapeshifter Messi, and many other top tier players but man, They don't compare.


I usually play till gold 3, as I like to play as little FIFA as possible, and they generally takes me 20 games. But this weekend, I played to gold 1, and tallied up 55 games in total just because how much fun I had with this card!!! He is a cheat! I had over 10 people message me after games saying "wow Ibra is so good" " what a tank up front" "WHY DO MY DEFENDERS NOT GET THE BALL!??". So satisfying after a few rough weekend leagues and crappy rewards. I paired him up top with MOTM Rebic, who is a beast of his own, and I had Sarr as the CAM right behind them. I actually enjoyed FIFA and Zlatan is the reason.


Biggest Perk of this man-- With 99 strength, it doesn't matter who their defender is, they will bounce off of you. VVD, ez. Prime Campbell, cakes. Headliner Varane, Get da foo outta here. Any fullback would rather run away than deal with this man. Slap a hunter on him and he does that incredddddibly infuriating thing where your defender will get in between him and the ball, but Zlatan gets around. I have no clue, and I felt bad for the people I was playing against. It just wasn't right, but it still felt soooooo good to spread those EAids.


In 55 Games, he has tallied 81 goals, and 30 assists. I can't complain about that.

Shooting - Kranks em. Longshots, easy. 1v1, easy.

Skills - So sticky with the ball, and much quicker than I anticipated. 99 strength and 96 aggression means he needs to get tackled 5 times to loos the ball.

Pace - I only played games with a hunter on him. Wow. Top end speed. if he starts even with someone he will break away. If he doesn't, they wont be able to knock him off the ball anyway.

Passing - Not bad! I was very impressed. Most strikers I have used can not pass for doodoo but he can! Very Happy, and proof is in his 30 assists.

Physical - Nothing to be said. Man is an amazing tank that demolishes people.

Stamina??? - Not a problem, I had him on stay forward, balanced attacking runs, and stay central. I took him into OT every game that was required, and he performed. Never completely ran out of stamina. I ran him at 93 stamina before games, still lasted.

Actually not a bad player at all

Did him as soon as he appeared beacause Zlatan. First of all, he is awesome just because you get to use one of your favorite players. I have heard people complain about him not being up to the task because he „feels clunky”. I am here to tell you that he is not clunky; he is tall. Know the difference!

True beast

Scream Zlatan works great as a powerful, central striker or CAM. For me he immediately became the focal point of my offensive play, as his strength and size makes it hard for defenders to bully him and his dribbling makes it easy to win space for a shot or a pass. I usually use him alongside a small, quicker striker as Zlatan lacks somewhat in speed. The speed works fine in most situations, but he will not outrun most defen...

An Elite 3 Player's Review of the Swedish God

I read the other two reviews for Ibra, and despite those reviews being very good and shedding some initial light on the card, some of you may be wondering if he is a viable option for gold 1 and higher level players. So, here's your answer!PACE: 8/10- I mean, 94 pace explains itself. Ibra is very rapid, but if you can, play him as someone who is the 'focal point' or target man in your team. You want to pla...
