St. Juste? More like St. Juiced
By droppedmyquaison, 19-06-2022

You know the drill by know: When there is a new Mainz Special card, a review by me is (kinda) guaranteed!

He randomly got released on Friday and made me continue to play FUT (I kind of wish he didn´t). I play him ingame in a 4-2-3-1 as a Striker with a Marksman in front of Nkunku (LAM), Boetius (CAM) and Berardi (RAM) with Jer being put on runs behind the defence and I have to say that he really impressed me! He felt like a massively improved Bebou FBday.

+ Pace: The 99 pace ingame and his 36.61 km/h make it obvious that he´s fast as f boi

+ Dribbling: He is very agile and his dribbling feels very smooth!

+ Shooting: very good, his goal to match ratio is >1.0

+ Defending: not necessary as a striker but usable in defence when needed

+ His Price: Not even 60k is a massive steal!

-Passing: it is generally awful this FIFA

-Physicality: His 90+ Physicality does not seem to be true, i think it has to do with his lean body type that doesnt allow him to win the 1v1´s

Juste a beast
By BigSoggyLad, 21-06-2022

So for starters, I run this card as a RW in a 4-3-3(2) formation using a defender chemistry style, paired with Insigne EOAE and TOTS Nkunku up front, and despite the price of this card let me tell you that he does not fall behind. For starters, his pace is absolutely defense-shattering. He glides past defenders as if they are not there. Paired with this, his forward runs are spectacular and he rarely gets caught offside, meaning he is ideal for chip-through balls. His shooting is precisely what his card describes, and despite the 82 curve, he can easily weave those finesse shots past the goalie from short-mid range. Pair all of this with his defending and physicality, you have an insane card that can really play anywhere outfield on the pitch. He is a nightmare for attackers and defenders when used correctly.


I cannot for the life of me figure out why this card is as cheap as it is, probably one of the best value right-wingers in the game right now, and definitely a favourite of mine so far.

The 99 base pace is a huge advantage over many other alternatives to this card. He is one of the rare cards that actually feels as fast as the card says he is.


The guardian chemistry style gives St Juste a +6 dribbling boost and this makes all the difference. He feels great on the ball, and paired with the physicality this card brings, he moves great and bullies people off the ball for fun.


Finally, his defending. The defending on this card obviously won't be used as much for someone like me where I am playing him predominantly as a stay-forward winger, though when running my ultra-attacking playstyle, he comes back as a CM and the defending is much more noticeable. With his pace and physicality, he plays excellently as a box-to-box midfielder.

There is nothing really about this card that I dislike, but if you had a gun to my head I guess I would say the long shots are sometimes a bit iffy, and his vision when making through balls. This card is a certified steal for the price and a must-have if you enjoy using fun cards.
