93 - Player Moments SBC

5.0

The Brazilian Magician

By louisclsb, 31-05-2020

Finally, EA listened. After dozens of Youtubers and the entire Fifa community complained for weeks about the lack of high end SBC cards released, this cheeky drop of a 6 segment Lucas Moura into our SBC section had been a long time coming. My club, and I'm sure most of the community, had been stacking up SBC fodder for weeks, with all the high end TOTS cards chilling in the club, waiting for a nice SBC to be dropped into. When I saw Lucas, I knew he was what I needed to rescue my team, and my all important CAM position in the 4231 narrow formation.

The upgrade from his 87 was beautiful. Incredible pace, dribbling, shooting, and ok passing made this card absolutely META. His agility and balance have always been top class on this game, but boost his AAB rating to 99 across the board and Zweback is having a laugh. It cost me zero coins to complete the 3 most expensive segments of his card, using all my poor red picks to raise the rating high enough to use dead players around them. Overall, only 250k of my actual coins were used up, a fantastic bargain which I was more than happy to trade in.

What was even more fantastic was the addition of the weak foot to this card. Now being 5*, he is akin to Neymar with his ability to weave in and out of defenders with ease, and be unpredictable about where he is going to turn. Unlike Neymar, he has much more pace, meaning when a through ball is played to him he will always get to it. His low centre of gravity makes the stickiness on this card unrivalled, and it turned my weekend league around.

In my first 13 games without Lucas, I went 6 wins 7 losses, terrible for me. Then, I got Lucas, selling the mediocre TOTS Promes for a huge loss and allowing the Brazilian beast to transform my gameplay. I consequently went 14 wins 8 losses, winning 8 games in a row with Lucas at the forefront of my success. If you're having doubts about submitting all your fodder into this card, just look at his stats. He's too good to pass up on, he just fits the game too goddamn well.

I'm an Arsenal fan, and I still think this guy is a beast. That's how you know you can trust this review (not just because of the amazing grammar.)

Lucas Moura -- Is he worth it?

So, first I'd like to say that the star ratings are completely disregarded here as I do not find them an acceptable way to gauge a player's value. To those who simply looked at the lackluster star rating, felt dis-encouraged by it, and promptly left--I'm sorry. Also, this will not be short, as I have not nailed brevity well. If you feel like you should not invest a ton of time in reading a Futbin review, I completely unders...

Lucas Moura - the fastest hare

Hi mates, for this weekend league I used Lucas Moura shape-shifter 87 as a center forward in the 4-4-2 with Ben Yedder and I had a great time. In the first games many opponents did not know that he was left-handed in this version and therefore was deadly with his left foot. But later on, despite the difficulty of the matches, he alway...

Lucas

checks all the meta boxes

Packed him in my starter packs and plugged him in as a ST in 4321 and CCAM in 4231. Very quick on the ball, agile in tight spaces and making cuts with outstanding runs. He's been very good on the counter getting behind defenders and the 4* skills are especially important this year with manual defending. He's a good finisher for this stage in the game. I bought Jesus (always a favorite) but thought he was disappointing compa...
