94 - OTW
5.0
Ballon d'or 2020 Winner
By Maric27, 10-01-2023

Jeez, TOTY is almost here and I'm using OTW Lewy when he's in the bottom of the top attackers tier lists (according to popular youtubers). Well, let me tell you how wrong they are.


Firstly I'm a huge Barca fan which pushed me to buy this card even though there were better options for the money (Nunez but we'll get ti that). I went to the market and there was one staring me in the face begging me to buy it. So I bought OTW Lewandowski for 290k and thought oh crap I made a mistake (he was banned and had a 3 game ban meaning his price would fall if I wanted to sell).


He slotted right in the RS position alongside Stoichkov because I felt he would do better with a fast and agile left-footed striker next to him. I had a different team than now and he did alright so I decided to sell him and try Nunez while changing half my team because of some friends' recommendation. Didn't even manage to qualify for WL (Div 3 right now so probably not a skill issue).


Bought him again and he's now central striker in a 4-3-3 (4) with Messi behind him, which was the best decision so far this FIFA for me. He shines in getting to through balls and outmuscling some defenders that aren't VVD or Lucio. Every shot hits the back of the net, be it from a 25-metre free kick or a 1-on-1 with a keeper, but you must keep in mind to shoot quickly cause of his low pace.

Speaking of pace, it wasn't such a problem because he can compensate for it with his shooting, heading and physical.


Passing is wonderful and he even manages to be an integral part in attack build-up. After he is done with the build-up he can somehow find space between Lucio and Dumfries and score (he only scored one goal like that it still was able to tell me a lot of his strength).


The only real problems are stamina, basically can't last 75 minutes and pace and he has to be in a really good position but scores from anywhere.


Where he really shines is corners. I mean, imagine if Barca had Messi right now and he lobbed corners in for Lewandowski. He scored around 40% of his goals from corners but I can tell you it's his best attribute when you're down a goal and desperately trying to claw back.


Basically, for the 300k if you can fit him in he's a real menace even if you're discouraged seeing the pace and let me tell you, I will patiently hold and wait for upgrades.

You might think, a review on OTW Lewa, already just after a day?We all know that if a player is good, he is good. You don't need to play many games to find out. In fact, I have only played 8.In those 8 games he already made a pretty big impact for me and my awful playing style. So much so that I wanted to give this card a big fat thumbs up on Futbin.Pace:

Lewandowski

Ok, i bought Lewa for 100k, I have him and Vinicius as Strikers with Benzema as a CAM, for the game that is now, he is good, you need to know how to use him. He is not the type of Counter Attacks, Get in behind man, he is the perfect Target Man if you ask me, that's why you have a target Man and a Very quick and agile next to him.Played him 10 games in W...

Absolute Monster

Got him as a red reward in champs. Used him for tots cup and rivals (div 1) and he has wrecked everyone ive faced. Slap a catalyst and mans like a machine charging pass defenders, thumping in the goals. One of the best STs in the game no cap. [15 games- 27 goals, 14 assists]. Shud be worth 1mil easy.
