86 - Icon
5.0
Oh good lord almighty
By jonasnilsen99, 10-02-2021

Wow, wow, wow and wow.


When I first packed this beast of a swede in mye Base Icon SBC pack i was kinda dissappointed. To be fair, i was absolutely raging. 86 pace when i used 400k on a SBC?? Cmon EA, stop kidding with me.


But then i saw the light. After my Haaland IF had stop performing for me after a good 100 games, I tought "nah whatever let´s give this geezer a shot". And OH MY GOD I HAVE NEVER EVER LOOKED BACK SINCE. I swear this was the best moment of my life, ever since I discovered porn. I play at a decent level, everything from mid-1900s to low-2000s. I also play Champs every weekend. And thanks to this absolute champ I average on Gold 1. I use im at ST in a 433-4 with Hunter chem style and Get Behind instruction.


Pace 86 9/10: Man oh man this man can run. At first sight 86 pace doesn´t kinda fit the META, but after you slap a cheeky hunter on this guy i swear his turning into a swede Usain Bolt for big parts of the game. "Joe Gomez? Who´s that?" "Varane? Don´t know him." "Van Dijk? Oh you mean the man who´s still dizzy from mye 3 star skills ball rolls". Nah, man this guy is not serious with his pace. One through ball and you´re 1-on-1 with the keeper.


Shooting 86 8/10: Sometimes it´s like hitting a cheat code from GTA: San Andreas and sometimes it´s like playing Cyberpunk 2077 just after release. Kinda consistent, hits every other finesse and chip shots (his traits) in the goal. He can score everything from a 30-yard screamer to a nice little 5-yard finesse. One of his best attributes must be his finishing, composure and positioning. Perfect link up player with his positioning. And with 90 finishing you can bet your house, wife and kids that this man has your back with a 93min winner against your fiercest opponents. And with a 4-star weak foot which feels like 5-star you can bet his left foot is JUST as lethal as his right gun.


Passing 74 6/10: Big meh. Good link-up player, especially with the CAM. Good at passing to the wings aswell. Long passing kinda crap, short passing is OK nothing special.



Dribling 84 7/10: Just like his passing, but bit less meh. He´s smooth and kinda agile in-game, but his 3 star skills kinda ruins it when you´re used to hit that berba spin every now and again to fool your opponent. But with 87 agility and 81 balance this man rarely gets pushed over by defenders in-game, especially when you slap a good ol´hunter to speed this guy up a bit.



Defending 46 ?/10: This guy is a striker. Doesn´t count. Apart from his heading accuracy, holy moly he hits the ball well with hus shiny bald head.



Physicality 72 8/10: From the first look, this man look a real weak one, but nah Henrik Larsson isn´t the kind of man who takes his in-game stats serious. He´s consistently bulling icon defenders and the typical METAs of the ball and he´s unplayable when he´s in the mood. 66 strength must be some kind of joke from EA. This man is one of the strongest I´ve ever used. Swede Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Other Henrik Larsson Reviews

Even better than last year.

He's back and even better than last year (where he was one of the best baby legend strikers).He's outshone any legend I have come up against so far. He's a decent chunk of change but totally worth it IMO....

Realistic Review

The following review is Based on Div rivals div1 and 2 gameplay (high 1800s and low 1900s)Larsson played as my second striker in a 4.2.2.2 beside Dembele. He scored 47 in 30 games and assisted 14 times with a Hunter slapped on him.Pace 10/10 : This was a pleasant surprise for me since I was not expecting him to be that quick! but with a hunter he Does feel like 95+ pace! ran toe to toe with my delmb...

Honest review

Was very disappointed when i packed him in my icon sbc, but then figured why not use him, and gotta say he has been unreal. He is surprisingly agile on the ball and movement is very good (with hunter chem). His finesse shot trait also comes in handy. Overall not a bad card at all and very usable.
