Let me tell you a tale about Garrincha

By GabrielFragaF, 05-05-2020

I need to start this by saying that i'm not a good player. Only played fut champions 5 times this year, finishing in silver 2 in all of them, and i just can't get out of division 7 no matter how much i try. But, even tho i lack ability, i'm a grinder, as a try to complete almost all avilable objectives and free cards, so icon swaps is ideal for me.

As a brazillian, my only doubt for icon swaps 3 was between Garrincha and Carlos Alberto, and i'm glad i chose the former. Garrincha is the most responsive card i've used, ever, moves like a rabbit running from a falcon on the fied, and i must say that his responsivness has single handedly made me reach gold 3 this weekend, he just scored 26 goals and assisted another 16 in 28 games, i'm completely in shock by how good this card is and how his runs are displayed in this game. Simply unbelieveble.

Pace and dribbling: As i've already mentioned, this card is just as responsive as it can get. Using a hunter, his 99 pace was simply unbeaten, felt much more rapid than Dan James. His dribbling is also unreal, just under Neymar tier, because of Neymars body type, without a doubt one of the best dribblers in the game, left stick was amazing.

Passing: Fifa 20 passing is terrible, but Garrincha can, still, pull out some magic and get the ball to your attackers in a fantastic way, always setting up a dangerous play, amazing passing.

Shooting: With a hunter, he just scored banger after banger. As he always reached the area before the defenders, garrincha would mostly shoot alone to score. I found that as he is very weak, when a defender is on him, he would miss some shots that a card like gold Neymar would not, but for one missed goal he made three, so it would always be okay.

Physical: His stamina is a little low, but with a stay forward on the cam position he would last the entire game. Is a little weak as well, but he is so agile that you could always dribble past defenders with ease.

Garrincha the goat (unconvenient title)

Let's start of on this confusing Monday, didn't have a glimpse of sleep. So I decided to do the sbc where you get a draft token.I did the draft and picked Garrincha and oh my lord. He is such a good dribbler it's insane, him and visca tots are the best dribblers i've used all game.

Very Bland card

Overall a expensive card for the price nothing special or fantastic. His Price is way over the top and at this stage of fifa you could buy a Cheap winger or complete an Sbc for one who could do the same if not a better job. A thing that I found a bit disturbing with Garrincha was how he lacks phisical as a winger and for the price you could go for a normal Messi or Salah with much better stats and more enjoyable on the ball...
