Buddies,

Let's talk about Neymar Flashback! (if you like the review, give me some support and your opinion on my IG please: scandola_FUT)

It's time for the most anticipated card ever!! The Santos prodigy saw the card emerge from his young years full of ardor and speed. Everyone thought SBC was going to cost more than 500k! But no, for just over 200k, you can achieve this SBC! What a gift!! The stat difference with the regular map is: +4 Pace, +2 Shooting, -6 Passing, -1 Dribbling, +1 Defense, -1 Physical, and -8 Overall! The Santos prodigy joined my club as a left attacker in a 4-1-2-1-2 for my last 5 FUT champs matches (4W-1L).

Regarding its main strengths compared to the regular card, it can be summed up in three words: speed – maneuverability – goalscorer. Indeed, I directly felt in the gameplay its ability to accelerate. Having played the regular a lot, I was always remain unsatisfied of its acceleration. This card completely solves the problem. Then, it is true that sometimes Ney regular miss easy attempts in front of the goal. With this new version, he becomes a real goalscorer and I would say that he misses 50% less. Finally, although even the regular card is super handy, this card is crazy in handiness. It is possible to turn it in all directions in the blink of an eye, which means that it is almost impossible for the opponent to recover the ball without making a foul.

Regarding his weaknesses, first of all, it must be recognized that his left foot is less effective. The fact of losing an W.F. star is felt in the gameplay and it is difficult to get used to a Neymar who is not ambidextrous. Finally, the reduction in his passing ability is real. He missed me some deep easy pass. So, you have to avoid asking him for difficult long passes and everything will be fine.

In conclusion, this card is a real gift from EA. I think it is therefore absolutely necessary to carry out the SBC unless you already have your non-tradable regular card. Indeed, the design of the card is beautiful, the speed boost is incredible (the most important stat in the game) and it is possible to play it as a goalscorer. This is a unique card not to be missed.

Flashback Neymar. This card is amazing when comparing it to its gold variation but even though it has its cons, this card is amazing. He feels so fluid on the ball and is crazy fast and can even score with his 4* week foot. With a Deadeye or Engine on this guy is one of the best wingers. I think even at his price of 230k, he is a great value SBC. However this has caused the gold Neymar to drop significantly even to below the SBC price. Even though he will go back up, if you have coins, just buy the gold one while he is cheap but if you have alot of fodder and want to try a new winger this is the guy for you. I feel he is so much more manoeuvrable than gold Neymar and is a beast in front of goal.

He has some downsides thought. His physicality is a bit low but that is the same as the gold variation and seems to lack the ability to make runs sometimes and hesitates leading me to give away possession. The star in week foot loss is quite noticeable and wont score as often with it but it is still pretty manageable.

In conclusion, I think this SBC is a crazy drop from EA and is a must complete if you don't have Neymar already. He is crazy fast and can dribble round defenders with ease. He really is something special. I 100% recommend this card.

Les frères,     

Parlons un peu de Neymar Flashback! (si vous kiffez l’avis, venez me donner de la force et m’encourager à continuer les reviews sur mon IG svp: scandola_FUT)

Il est venu le temps de la carte la plus attendue de tous les temps !! Le prodige de Santos a vu sortir la carte de ses jeunes années pleines de fougue et de vitesse. Tout le monde pensait que le SBC allait coûter un rein! Mais non, pour un peu plus de 200k, vous pouvez réaliser ce SBC ! Quel cadeu !! La différence de statistiques avec la carte regular est la suivante: +4 vitesse, +2 tir, ­-6 passe, -1 dribble, +1 défense, -1 physique et -8 au total ! Le prodige de Santos a rejoint mon club au poste d’attaquant gauche dans un 4-1-2-1-2 pour mes 5 derniers matchs de FUT champs (4V-1D).

Concernant ses principales forces en comparaison à la carte regular, cela se résume en trois mots : vitesse – maniabilité – buteur. En effet, j’ai directement ressenti dans le gameplay sa capacité à accélérer. Ayant beaucoup jouer le regular, je suis toujours resté sur ma faim concernant sa capacité à accélérer. Cette carte vient pleinement résoudre ce problème. Ensuite, il est vrai que parfois Ney regular croque devant le but. Avec cette nouvelle version, il devient un vrai buteur et je dirais qu’il loupe 50% moins. Finalement, bien que de base il est hyper maniable, cette carte est folle en maniabilité. Il est possible de le tourner dans tout les sens en un clin d’œil autant dire qu’il est presque impossible pour l’adverse de récupérer le ballon sans faire faute.

Concernant ses faiblesses, tout d’abord, il faut reconnaitre que son pied gauche est moins efficace. Le fait de perdre une étoile M.P. se ressent dans le gameplay et c’est difficile de s’habituer à un Neymar qui n’est pas ambidextre. Finalement, la réduction de sa capacité de passe est bien réelle. Il m’a loupé certaine passe ne profondeur loin d’être difficile. Ainsi, il faut éviter de lui demander des passes difficile et tout ira bien.

En conclusion, cette carte est un véritable cadeau de la part d’EA. Je pense qu’il faut donc absolument réaliser le SBC sauf si vous posséder déjà sa carte regular non-vendable. En effet, le design de la carte est magnifique, le boost de vitesse est incroyable (la stat la plus importante du jeu) et il est possible de le jouer en buteur. C’est une carte unique à ne pas manquer.

When I saw his leak I knew that I must do him. I did him for free so it was amazing deal, because this card is absolute amazing. I gave him deadeye and played him on ST with mbappe and this duo was destroying every oppontent.

Ney's pace is beautiful shooting also, but he sometimes didnt finish 100% situations. Passes are good, but arent amazing. He is yhe best dribbler in this game, he is better than: Dinho, Mbappe. Antoher thing is his agility which is higher than on his gold card

And now I will tall about his cons- Physical. He cant push anyone, but his dribbling and pace helps in this, beacause he is just faster and more agile, so he can run away.

Sorry for my English in this review

Neymar is one of those players in Fifa 22 that sticks out. His 91 gold card was one of the best cards in the game and I personally used him for months now. However when I saw this FB Neymar, I was a bit sceptical at first, but after a few games, I can say his FB is better than his gold.

Played him at striker with a deadeye because the FB seems more like a striker than a winger, therefore it worked perfectly for the gameplay.

WF/SM

He got downgraded from a 5* to a 4* which is the first downside of the flashback. That 5-star weak foot is what made Neymar, Neymar. However, it isn't the end of the world because it is still usable overall.

PACE

His 95 pace is one of the great boosts his FB card got compared to the gold card. You don't need to put a hunter anymore to up his pace like in his gold card - therefore

The 95 pace makes a huge difference compared to his gold. You can instantly tell his pace when he gets the ball and he is just a lightning bolt on the pitch.

SHOOTING

His +2 shooting makes all the difference compared to the gold. He can actually finish now. That was one of the problems I had with the gold. He could move in tight areas but sometimes he just couldn't score with his shooting. This FB in my opinion has better shooting, and he seemed more consistent with his shots overall.

PASSING

Of course, they had to downgrade something with his card to the gold. But honestly, his passing with a deadeye is actually not that noticeable with his gold. Therefore I wouldn't say much about it. However, it shouldn't bother you because his passing is somewhat decent but not as good as his gold.

DRIBBLING

Ok, unpopular opinion maybe but his dribbling is actually better or the same with his flashback than his gold. The FB dribbling compared to the gold is a -1. However, when you look at the in games, there's really barely a difference except the composure going from 93 to 85.

His agility and balance go up especially the balance getting a +6. Which makes him even smoother on the ball and more responsive. Now that is my opinion, others may argue otherwise. However, after playing with his gold for a few months, I can say the FB feels more responsive with his dribbling.

PHYSICAL

The physicals get downgraded on his Flashback, but really it doesn't matter that much because he gets a +9 on stamina which makes him a lot more usable.

Verdict:

This card is a MUST complete even for the ones with the 91 Neymar because he just feels better to use and can shoot. Plus you get a cool Santos dynamic pic.

However, I would only do it if you have the fodder and if you were to do it from scratch which is around 250k.
