Prime Puskas has to be the best icon in this game. His ability to shoot from anywhere in the attacking third and score 95% of the time gives me chills every time I do it. Of course, you do have those occasional WTF moments from EA, but this man feels like a cheat code. Even in slow gameplay in the elite division he feels like he has 99 dribbling. If you're a fan of fast and agile dribblers up front, this man is your go-to guy. I have not had one game where he as felt even remotely clunky or slow. That 3 star weak foot might as well be a 5 star weak foot because he's scored just as many goals with it compared to his left foot. And if that wasn't enough, his shooting stats don't even need to be boosted and give those with OCD something to stare at on their Futbin app while they bang in goals from 40 yards out. His price is a bit steep, but if you can afford it, I would definitely recommend this god of a player. I mean, can you expect anything less from a player who has a goal scoring award named after him?
Pace - 9/10
I'm only giving him a 9 because it feels like every CB you play against at this point can catch up to your defenders, but he usually dusts most of them anyways.
Shooting - 10/10
Like I said before, take a shot with this guy in your opponent's attacking third. See what happens.
Passing - 9/10
Giving this a 9 because when gameplay is good his passes are pinpoint on both feet. Those slow games where you players cannot pass if their life depended on it, however, it's slightly less so.
Dribbling - 10/10
I also have Messi in my squad and I can say without a doubt this guy dribbles better than Messi. And we all know how broken Messi's dribbling is this year.
Defending - N/A
Can't really give a guy a defensive rating if I've never used him defensively. All I'll say is that when it comes to it, he can intercept the ball from most defenders.
Physical - 8/10
I'm going to give this an 8 because like I said with the pace, defenders this year are either really good or nonexistent. In a normal game, he can definitely hold his own against most defenders except for Kimpembe, I don't know what that guy is on but he plays like prime moments Maldini. In slow gameplay, this is where you would have to rely on his impeccable dribbling. Otherwise, he'll be just fine.
Your 1 con with this guy:
In slow gameplay, like most other players, he won't be at his best, but he will still be godlike.
Hello, im writing my first review on futbin so here is it, Puskás PRIME is an awesome player, i managed to craft his sbc for around 300K and no regrets for that. I used him as left ST with POTM Mbappe in a 41212 and he did NOT outperformed Mbappe, but i have to say he was amazing, 32 games 33 goals without pens is awesome as Mbappe is my main striker with 1174 goals and 52 assist in 112 games, so its very nice by Puskás to have those stats. The thing i like the most about him is his magical left foot and his agility and hability to turn so quickly. He has a fkn cannon in his left foot, if you get the time finishing in green he can score from literally everywhere so easily. Another thing is that his passes are soooo good too, his 92 short pass, 89 long pass, 92 curve and 91 vision combo is so good, i would even play him as a cam honestly, he is so good.

I waited for so long to try him, bought him at 1.399 million coins and he's so good, he has it all for an attacker, his shooting is so good, even if you don't boost it, ima say he's really good value and for that price the options are either him or prime eto'o, hope you try this beast!

This card is CRAZY. Best striker I've used this year for sure. His shooting is beyond godlike. But I'll get to that eventually. Starting with pace, he's solid. Not his strongest but he feels like your standard meta icon attacker. Shooting like I mentioned is just demonic. It's somehow better than it looks even with those stats. His composure is extremely good being at 96 he always has ice in his veins. His passing is perfect, simply superb. Genuinely hard to recall if he's ever flunked a pass for me, probably hasn't done so let's be real. Not to mention his bloody freekicks, they're rockets. It's not the curve or the bend that you feel, its the power. Aim anywhere and its gonna teleport into the net, you literally see nothing. His dribbling is pretty much just as good as his passing & shooting. Feels really solid, not entirely fluid like TOTS Foden or even IF Messi, but its the simple light gliding touches he makes that are really special. Defensively, no comment. His jumping I never really test because he's not set to to take headers in my team. Stamina however, is a huge strong point, never runs out, never feels sluggish. He's not the strongest but that stocky body type is a helping hand when referring to his strength. I know people say his weak foot would be a huge con, at times it can be. However, that's out shadowed by his sheer amount of goals scored with his weaker right; in the box feels perfect, further out it might be weaker or less accurate, still, nonetheless deadly.

Weak foot at times
A very Fun card, he makes top bins from 30m but sometimes doesnt score open goals from 6m. Feels weird on the ball too great in the dribble itself but if he gets under pressure from a CB with 85+ PHY he forgets the ball or is just pushed over. 100% better as a CAM with a strong but agile striker, like Romarinho, but with Butra Prime at ST it wasnt possible to win against good teams with e.x. Varane Flashback and or a TOTY. He also feels kinda slow with and without the Ball.He makes just Bad runs, But his Passing,positioning in the box and Finishing make up for it Most the time.

So I packed Puskas from my prime icon pack a few months ago. I was obviously happy since he is known to be one of the best but in game for me he's not thaaaaat great. Obviously, he scores goals here and there but he doesn't get involved that much in the attack. In 163 games for me only 104 goals. In general if he had 4 star wf he would be broken but the weakfoot kills him a lot. I always have to turn to get him on his left and the defenders always read it. For this heavy price tag, I would invest in someone else.

Weakfoot, stamina
SO! I bought Prime Puskas off the market. Honestly, expected a LOT more from him. I ran an Engine chem style on him and he was really good. However, that 3 star weak foot really does him in. If you're used to players like Ben Yedder or Mbappe, Puskas is in a different class. I had Prime Maradona in the team who actually scored more goals than he did. Got pushed off the ball a lot and whenever you dribble with him and the ball switches to his right foot, he becomes really predictable to defend against. Him Prime Icon Moments is probably way better with the Weak Foot upgrade but on this card it just isn't right. I've been saving for a while to be able to play with him but after 5 games in Division 3 Rivals, there are many players that can outclass him for cheaper. 1.5 million is what I paid and he was the weakest link for sure. He felt a lot better last year though. But, this is just my experience! He still is a cracked card and his shots are great in the right areas.

So this is my first review and I wanted to write it to let you guys now this guy is not for everyone. I am a div 1/ elite player and usually finish around rank 5 in wl. I like attackers who are good on the ball, can pass, shoot and have a nice bit of pace. I was very lucky to get him out of an mid/prime icon player pick. I was very excited to try him out. But he proves to be very dissapointing for me. I played him as CAM and ST in a 3-5-2 4-1-3-2. And he just couldn't score to save his life. He never scores for me. I use him no as RM in a 4-4-2 and he performs a bit better because I don't rely on him as much. But even here he just isn't that good. I got 91 Mid Eusebio and he is a million times better for me and worth about the same. I would recommend him way more. Puskas gets pushed off the ball real easy and he just doesnt score for me. He isn't a bad player ofc his stats are good but for the price you could get a way better striker/cam/winger. Or even get multiple better players.
Pace is okay

Has a big name and is a relatively new icon
