Review on Future Stars Isak 86 Ovr

By Supernova23, 05-02-2021

As soon as I saw the new future stars promo and the cards I knew I wanted to try out Isak. His 5* WF was what made him stand out from others. I bought him for 141k and I've played 5 games with him since. I'm a division 2 player and I usually reach gold 2 in fut champs. In these 5 games, I got a very good insight on what Isak plays like

, and that's why I felt like doing this review. I guessed that others might be interested in buying him since he's pretty cheap. In 5 games I scored 8 goals with him (3 with WF, 4 with SF, 1 header) and assisted 3 goals with him. I can say right now, I am blessed with him. I've played him as ST in a 442 (2) with Quincy Promes rttf as his striking mate. The combo is strong, since Isak is tall and tough and Promes is smaller and agile.

WF: Starting off with his WF. His finishing feels amazing with both feet and I wouldn't notice any differences between his feet. If you give him an opportunity, he will take it no matter what
Finesse shots: Although not having the shot trait his finesses feel insanely good and compared with his finishing they're most likely to go in
Speed: This one is obvious, he is lightning fast with a hunter and will win most running duels
Strength: His strength of 83 might not seem incredible but compared with his height, he is able to keep up with tougher CBs like Varane or Van Dijk
Heading: 85 heading is very good and his mediocre jumping of 78 can't be taken into account since he's 6'4 (192 cm) and is able to win headers without jumping that high
Passing: 85 vision and 81 short passing are both very good stats for a ST and it comes in very useful in the 2v2 situations in the 442 against the CBs
Links: He can be linked with meta players such as Mendy and Varane, Capa or Joao Felix

Dribbling: I'm not saying that his Dribbling is bad but since he's 6'4 he feels very sticky and not as smooth as shorter strikers. His stats are great for a player of his height but when compared to normal height strikers you will notice, how he feels less agile and sometimes has problems controlling the ball
Stamina: 83 isn't too bad but he will lack noticeable speed from the 65th to 70th minute on and should probably be subbed out in a close game. I would definitely not go into overtime with him in fut champs
4* Skills: I know some will say that you don't need 5* Skills this Fifa but here me out. Before I played him, I used SIF Wilfried Zaha (who I plan on doing a review on as well) and I loved his 5* Skills, the ball roll scoop turn or just the scoop turn itself was super useful in 1v1 Situations with the opponents CB and I really missed that with Isak. I got used to his 4* Skills eventually and wouldn't say it that big of a con to him but for the people who swear on 5* Skill players it might be
Conclusion: Isak is a fairly cheap beast and is worth every coin. If you are looking for a smart upgrade on your La Liga Squad or you manage to find a way to include him in your squad you should definitely go for him. He is a very fun card and will most likely stay usable for a longer time in Ultimate Team. I hope you enjoyed this review and eventually found it helpful. Best from Germany! Cheers!

Just Insane

Here we go, the best objective card we've seen this year by EA, gg's. First of all, please do golden goal, we are a community and so we need to work together. Thank you. So, Isak TOTS, where do i start...the combination of height, pace, dribbling and strenght is insane. He feels amazing on the ball for his height. Dont expect him to be messi-ish. Tall players will always feel worse the small ones. But still, for his ...

The beast of all beasts.

Well we all know how good this card has been this year on FIFA, and this was that card that finally just made him unstoppable. If you have ever used him (especially his TOTS) you know that his shot power is CRAZY and imo the best I have ever got my hands on, on this game ever - I mean his finishing is near perfect and he has that 5* wf... So literally unstoppable. His height does impact his dribbling but thank god he has th...

Talisca on steroids

I have never written a player review before but there was no chance I could miss out on reviewing this absolute beast of a card. As soon as I saw him in the objectives I knew I had to get him based on the quality of his future stars card. I have played 5 weekend league games with him but that is enough to tell you that this guy is the R9 for players who don't put money in to the game, just absolutely insane in all aspects. ...
