The Crooked King

By KoolMoeD, 03-08-2023

I received Garrincha from the 92+ Attacker SBC, and i was ecstatic. Garrincha extremely good not only in game, but as we all know, he used to be very good in real life.

His crooked legs look like a bow, and when he shoots it looks like an arrow heading into the net at full speed.

Pace. His pace is incredible even though it is "only" 94. i used the catalyst chemistry style, and he seemed like 99 pace.

Shooting. As i described previously, his shots are like arrows shot from a bow. Extremely fast, precise and powerful.

Dribbling. Him, Pelé, and Messi are known as the dribbling gods. And Garrincha is a part of this trio rightfully! Not only in real life but also in game, his dribbling is as if his feet were merely made from silk, and his small yet precise touches completely destroy not only the defense of opponents, but also their understanding of modern football .

Passing. While "only" being 90, his passing feels just as if not more precise than my midfield..

Defending. His defending, while of course not being a defender, is certainly not bad. he can quickly take over the ball without difficulty if needed

Physicals. His physical stat is 84, which in August you´d think is kind-of bad. But oh, no, he can easily fend off big defenders such as Van Dijk or Varane. i have no idea how lol.

Animations. His animations feel like a little added cheat code. he easily gets past defenders and his shots feel like they glide through the air like a bird before swinging inside the net.

4* Weakfoot. I really didn't find a problem with his weak foot, i don´t even notice it, but for someone it may be a con.

Garrincha 98 - The most OP Card in Fifa23

By Malikdfasaesfed, 24-06-2023

Garrincha is an incredible player. But you have to pay a lot for him, of course. Not many of us have millions of coins in Fifa, or the money to buy packs. So it's understandable when you have the coins to wonder if it's worth it.

I'll tell you: It's 100% worth it.

A few of us may know that Garrincha had crooked legs back then. One was an X leg and the other an O leg. This gave him Incredibly Brilliant Dribbling and Exceptional Acceleration at the time. It seems like EA Sports has done something well for the first time. Namely, it feels as if EA brought these crooked legs into play in exactly the same way. This icon has something unique, it feels like you get an extra dribbling and pace boost. You can simply turn the running direction by 180° in a full sprint WITHOUT slowing down or anything like that.

Let me explain how he feels in game:
