95 - Icon

Underwhelming

By Fifa2011, 22-01-2022

I packed him out the Base/Mid and was so happy, never have I had packed a top-tier icon. My expectation was high for the KING, his stats looked phenomenal surely he would play amazing? Unfortunately, he was extremely underwhelming, mainly due to his strength and running animation. I play with weak players such as Insigne who plays amazing, but Pele in-game gets shoved off the ball so much with ease. I really wanted this card to be good, I've played over 100 games with him, trying different chem styles, positions, and player instruction. A big disappointment considering he should be one of the best players in-game, he feels slow, struggles to get past defenders and shooting is not as good as it should be.

second best ST in the game

The only reason I value R9 higher than him is his 5* WF and higher Shotpower. Pele dribbling and pace is amazing. Whenever this guy is on the ball you know that he is different. He feels considerably faster than Mbappe, more agile than Neymar and perfor...

Pelé

Fraudulent?

Pele was one of my favourite players in FIFA 21 as I packed his prime untradeable from a swaps player pick. I couldn't believe it when I packed him from my first mid icon pack this year. I was finally reunited with my beloved Pele and went into Champs thinking that I'd finally got a hold of a true gamechanger of a card. I play in DIV1 and Champs and after using him in various positions, chemstyles and form...
