Honest review of Butra!

By YoungManiac1, 28-04-2021

Butra was my favorite player in the last year and I was lucky to get him 2 months ago in the Mid or Prime Pack.

At first, I was super thrilled after packing him, just to realize that he is missing the main attribute in this year's game which is at least 4* skills.

I'm g2/g1 player and playing in div 2.

Butra is super small on the pitch, but that makes him super agile which kinda compensates the lack of skills.

He has 99/99 pace with hawk but he isn't as fast as Mbappe, and lack of strength won't help him a lot in those 'get in behind' situations.

I was mostly playing him in left ST in many different formations with two attackers.

His shooting is for most of the time amazing, but sometimes he'll make inconsistent finesse shots when no one is close to him, and the GK will easily catch the ball. This becomes much more frequent after he loses his stamina after 70 minutes.

At the time of getting him he was around 2mil which was too much, but at this price, if you are not a skiller (why arent you tho?) I would suggest getting him, but even though I never tried Dalglish I would always go for Dalgli just because of that one extra skill rating.

Or you could just get Neymar for 1/3 of the price and you'll be equally satisfied.

Overall I might be trying him this weekend on CAM with 'basic' just to increase his passing, and to get extra shot power(unlike with engine).

Is he an end-game card? Unfortunately nope, unless you are satisfied with G3 and lower.

- Shooting (for high% of times)

- 5 WF , not as important as in last year but still nice to have

- Pace, but not too fast

- Agility and movements inside the box

- Kinda cheap at the moment

- Short passing and vision, not too bad but could be better!

- Long passing is just terrible

- Sometimes inconsistent finesse shots

- Stamina

- Strength

- Not having 4* skills, makes him super predictable

Insane

I don't normally write any reviews, but I saw this man does not have any yet, so I felt compelled to share with you all just how great this guy is for me! I was playing before with Neymar up front next to baby Zola, but I had some spare coins and decided to try prima Butra. Not a single moment of regret since. I am not a great player by any means (currently DIV 4, but on the rise thanks to him), but he cha...

Hey guys,At first, I am a regular gold 1 player and after trying Eto'o, Cantona as my Striker, I wanted to go with something different and off the radar. So I decided for Butragueno even though I was quite unsure, since 3* Skills usually is no option for a player of my front four. But I still gave it a go, and I wouldn't regret it. I played him in a 4-4-2 as a striker together with Mbappe with a( have a look at my s...

lil butra

so, this card... As a player who uses skill moves when he was one of my picks in my icon player pick I wasn't sure about him but picking him over (mid) del Pierro and (mid) best was the best decision I could have made. This card is the definition of a rat, he is so short and agile and he feels elite, when he bridges he runs around the player against him for fun, he is just so small and fa...
