The best Attacker in FIFA 22
By jakouedel, 17-10-2021

For this weekend league I decided to try out the most expensive card every FIFA. It goes without saying, however this card is VERY expensive and obviously that is always relevant.

His dribbling and ball control stats are already very high but with the extra boost to his dribbling. It made skill moves feel very quick and definitely were usable in tight spaces inside the box which is very game breaking this year. This card is crazy expensive but if you can afford him there's no other attacker this year that's gonna touch him until TOTY. The only other comparable Strikers or Attackers would be CR7 (affected by his low balance and sub-90 ball control, as well as his strength) or Puskas (highest shooting stat pre TOTY is crazy, however 3* 4* is a bummer). Lastly obviously is Pele, who has lower strength, and doesn't have the 5* 5* or the fresh cut.


To finish this off I want to just say that a lot of people are writing this card off because of the meta this year. Im here to say that as a "skiller" from last year who would use any skill or cancel that was meta, this card is super meta with an engine this year if you are using the right skills (shot fake into la croqueta, shot cancel, elastico/reverse elastico, or the ball roll scoop). His insane dribbling stats alongside 89 strength and crazy high acceleration make him a demon in the box which is game breaking this year with how goalkeepers can save shots and with AI blocks. The only complaint possible is 91shot power and 89 long shots (Lower than CR7, Eusebio, Cantona, Puskas, or Baby RVP), I say that's low because shooting top corner this year is a must inside the box and long shots can win people games this year. With a basic chemstyle I think he would be more "meta", however an engine makes him feel more unique and fun in game.

  • 94 Reactions and 91 composure helps with one time shots and passes.
  • Pace
  • 96 finishing can make life a lot easier in 1v1s
  • 89 Strength makes him an enigma, he bodies off most defenders and the ones who are strong enough to body him usually won't beat him in a race
  • 92 Agility and 91 Balance with an Engine Chem style makes him feel like a Neymar-type player
  • Finesse Shot trait makes inside the box finesses viable


  • 79 Stamina will sometimes leave him low at the end of games
  • 89 Long shots and 91 shot power is somewhat subpar
  • 58 Aggression sometimes makes him lazy to try and win the ball back instantly which can get you crappy rebound goals sometimes

Not even fair 2

I only had 12 winter wildcard tokens, so no 10x85+ pack for me. I thought of cashing in Daka but then I thought "fuck it", let's go for the ultimate pack. And well, triangle haircut Ronaldo.. I love this guy, I remember that we were in Amsterdam on a field trip for school during the 2002 world cup finals. As soon as Brazil won a scooter was blazing through the city, must have gone 90 km/h wit...

R9 Makes This Game Actually Enjoyable

I've been very fortunate to use many different players this FIFA, I've had TOTY Ronaldo, TOTY Messi, TOTY Lewandowski, and Prime Eusebio. When I had enough coins for R9 I pulled the trigger and purchased him. I play on PS5 so there's that automatic DropBack and it's Park the Bus Simulator. Ronaldo has been an unbelievable card and is the best card I've used so far with Eusebio being the second best, The TOTY cards don't ev...

A mix of CR7 base and a God

Onestly he is just insane, makes the difference and is a game changer. I tried Pelè mid, Cruyff, Eusebio,Mbappè IF etc. and he is on a different level but the problem with him is that his performance strictly depends on the connection and the gameplay situation.If you play him in WL on evening/afternoon he literally is CR7 gold, nothing more. He turns like a truck and becomes really really hard to use,the on...
