Packed tradeable from 9 wins. Sell now or use him for rivals?
Agreed. Have him next to TOTY Virgil and he even outshines him. Always on point with the standing tackles. Fast, agile and aggresive.
His passes are one of the best. Crazy vision. Makes it more fun to play.
He's in elite. I'm pretty sure he knows how to play and can give an opinion of how good cards are. I will try it out myself, but some players aren't that good in-game despite having good stats. If you look back at the history of FIFA, Trent was never that good in-game.
His agility and first touch turn which gives him free space is extremely OP, CB's has a tough time defending him. The player with the best first touch turn. Wish I could've pack his TOTY.
Just can't get used to him. For me he plays so bad. Not agressive at all, not fully convincing taking the ball from the opponent, and slow with the turn when there is a counterattack. Only his positioning and blocking shots his good. If I had him tradeable, I would sell it right away and just use my Varane sbc evo.
He was ghosting for me in division 1. Put Eusebio base back in, and already makes the difference in positioning, dribbling and finishing. Kinda waste for me. Will try him LW but he will perform even worse I think. Otherwise it's going to be a formation with two attackers upfront.
I've slapped a defender, then midfielder and now defender again. Got 90 pace with 91 defending. Intercept+ and Anticipate+. A beast!!
Jiancuk! I will show off pipit ku ...
Thanks for the advice!
Worth it with spending 2M coins if I already have Puskas TOTY and Eusebio base upfront?
Same here. Really aggressive and good with pressuring.
I don't know man, my Varane seems to do much better job. I've plated friendlies against three of my mates and they can see the difference aswell when I sub VVD off for Varane in the second half. Where VVD is more awaiting, Varane just press and do standing tackles right away. Difficult to explain. Although the block ps+ of VVD as saved me alot of times.
Yup, maybe I just can't get used to him. But Varane seems more agressive and has a little bit more AI defending. Tried VVD again in every role. On Stopper he is better, but still not the level of Varane.
I don't know how but since I'm using this VVD TOTY I'm conceiding alot more goals and there is like a gap. Feels like he is more tanky which makes it difficult for him to turn. Pretty slow aswell. My Varane sbc with TOTY evo seems to play much better somehow. Not worth 6.5mill at all imo even though I packed him untradeable. Just too cool to bench cause he is VVD and its his TOTY version. Call it skill issue, but seems that others is experiencing the same according to the comments here.
Bale for winger and Mbappe for ST. Mbappe on winger isn't really that useful as his passing is also ****.
His long passes are crazy good! Even from short distance just infront of the box.
Use false back even though you won't get + or ++. They will position themselfs right next to your sbc and less on the sides/wing of the field.
I have R10 on LM/LW, Puskas TOTY and Base Eusebio. Still want to do this mf. But someone has to bench ... The damn dilemma.
Learn how to write habibi. Feels like I'm solving a damn word puzzle.
Did 82x20 sbc about 185x and got him after doing 89x. Tbf, not worth 7,5M at all. He still feels tanky and can't keep up with fast players. Other than that his block and interception are crazy.
After Virgil yesterday, I also packed her just now from 82x20. Best sbc they ever did compared to previous years. Did it 155x btw. This is THE sbc to grind. I needed to buy 3x TOTW packs in store aswell, but you get the coins back eventually if you sell everything from the tradeable gold packs. Hope you all pack more aswell! GL!
Eusebio for sure, but not for his powershot. Eusebio has the best first touch for a striker which creates space to run forward. His R1 dribble is far better and his 5* WF can surprise the opponent by shooting from any angle. Eus 10000%.
Abily or Sawa wW?
Packed him from TOTY Icon guaranteed pack. But somehow my base Eusebio feels more agile, has better first touch and is more clinical with finishes. Forced to use 2 central attackers now. Still a beast of a player.
His POTM won't give him second PS+. Watch them put him in a promo after Future Stars with second ps+.
He has the best first touch an finishing in the game as a striker. Creates so much space with just one touch, and his R1 dribbling is too smooth. I have R10 94 rated card, but this Eusebio is 3x better regarding the dribbling. Wish I could've packed his TOTY.
If its going to be 93 rated with extra playstyle plus, with an sbc worth of 2.5 to 3M then yeah. If it's going to be 92 rated with one playstyle+ then keep playing with Vini.
Whoever bought her for 1.3M, nice sniping! That's some huge profit!
So who did his Ultimate Edition evo and another evo in between for 87 rated? A huge W for the TOTY blueprint evo. Holy he is going to be crazy again with the powershots: 94 speed, 90 shot, 85 pass, 94 dribble and 88 physique with powershot, first touch and rapid PS+! Have fun with it ;-)
Massive massive skill issue my friend. People who can't score with him are just pace merchants. It's not FIFA anymore. Learn how to play with him. Use R1 to dribble and go to the direction you want, press sprint directly to outpace the defenders. So it's like a mid speed boost. He can stop and turn real fast and keep the ball close. Make use of that. One of the best finishers. 154 games played, 232 scored in div 1/2.
Got it from 88+ Icon pp. Finishes everything. His 5*WF makes him a goalmachine. Not using speedboost, but already feels rapid and agile at the same time. WW!
My Konate with 6 evo's is miles better. This one is fodder for me unfortunately. The anticipate+ is nice, but he lacks everything else.
Such a mid card cause of better players with rating 87 having lots of evo's applied already.
He is crazy, played with him for a week before the price range update. Bangs those Powershots and is overall really good. Attacking and defending wise as CM for me. There is a slightly high chance that his price will go up by another 100K. But I think he will stay for around 1.5M.
He was extinct at 650K for like a whole week. Now finally they've updated his price range you ****! ^^
Had a good time with your powershots, but now it's time to go champ!
Dumb EAFC community. Technical is one of the most underrated playstyles plus. You can dribble easily through midfielders and defenders in and out of the box to create more chances or give those through passes. Paulo Futre is also the perfect example to use. People see the stats and think that's everything. Didn't learn from the previous EAFC/FIFA's. Anyway W for Baggio fans.
My Konate with 6 evo's is already really good. Has 87 pace, 99 passing, really good dribbling and reactions, all the defensive playstyles etc. But that anticipate+ is maybe a gamechanger next to my Saliba thunderstruck. Think I have to switch between these versions every match.
I have cooked every defender with my Inaki evo, but this Spanish bull is his biggest nightmare. Holy, what a wall. Could'nt get through him ffs. Unreal.
There is still tons of people that didn't pack him or don't know about this bug. It was just like the TOTY Messi bug from EAFC 24. Eventually 1/10 games you will encounter R10. But still, EA is a big joke.
UPDATE THE PRICE RANGE OF PRIME HAMSIK AND PRIME STAM FFS
UPDATE THE PRICE RANGE
EA never makes announcements regarding price ranges ;-)
EA is taking the piss on us. Isn't there like a support team where we can contact them about this issue? They didn't even upgrade the Thunderstruck players. Receiving millions of money cause of the playerbase, but can't do a simple adjustment. What a **** company. Then don't release upgrade promo's.
Think it will settle around 1m - 1.3?
Surprisingly good. Did hold my attackers really well. Compare it to the beginning of the season when gold rare Araujo was a meta.
Because the dumwits EA employees doesn't care about price range and players being extinct, so we players need to check everyday if they already changed the price range of him and Stam prime. Already a damn week now. Damn fools!
I think this and Stam prime took the longest to change the price range of all players promo's, if they still going to do it. It's been almost a whole week already.
Depends on which roles you give the players. But I play mostly 442 and I get wrecked against 4213 because of the extra midfielder against one of my two midfielders that are mostly out of position. My counter formation for 4213 is either 41212 or 4231 with three CAM's. But against other formations I've found 442 pretty good and balanced. Sometimes I even use 424 if I'm behind.
Nice try! ^^
They will change the price range, but eventually he will stay at 650K just because it took too long for them to change it and people already accepted it. if not, eventually he will rise to max 900K just because he is out of packs.
Sawa or Foudy Centurion?
GG's for the ones that has like 6 evo's on him including Les Bleus, 99 passing, 87 speed and extra defensive playstyles. Now we are at the final stage of giving him +4 defensive stats including +2 physical from both Flash evo's. He will be cracked!
For the one that put him for 150k, gg! Got yourself 100K free. Dunno how I did buy it even though I've set up my max buy at 54k.
He was good like a month ago. But now every winger outpaces him. His jockey+ is still very good though. Think I'm going back to Ferland.
Too good for 111k and a French player. Easy to chem aswell tbh. His finesses are powerful as fu.
Gg! True wish that was the only change it could have
Have 6 evo's on him with 99 long and short passing, some of above 90 agility, better speed of 87 and almost all defensive playstyles. There will be more evo's coming for him for sure. For now my evo clears, but that anticipate+ can be a huge game changer though.
He is, but you should use him as a false 9. Eventually when you go deeper into the opponents half, he will position himself very good. Then you can use his OP finesse. Tried his loan from FC Pro event, and he saved me many times. Very fun card to use next to a faster attacker.
My bad. In-game the jockey ps is also shown as silver but didn't knew it was the max ps so he won't get it. Then going to do this one aswell.
Might not meet the requirements for another evo as most of the evo's requires max. 8 playstyles. With this evo added he will get 9 playstyles. Might skip this one and wait for an upgrade on the defensive stats. However, this evo **** is all a gamble. Maybe they don't do requirements with max playstyles then it's a win. Still dunno what to do.
Yeah, my Ultimate edition evo Inaki is here. So powershot merchants, use this evo and you will have the one of the best strikers in the game.
Played her CM in draft. She makes playing the game a little bit fun again. Perfect allrounder. She's good at everything, also in defence aspects. Her finesses are the best I've used. No need to stay in the corner of the box. Just shoot from the middle and it goes with perfect speed and curve.
Waste at CM. Play him at RM with wide playmaker. His R1 dribble, passing and crossing are wayyyy too good. Even if you think that your attackers are being manmarked by the defender. Don't worry, it will reach your attacker somehow. Absolute fun to play with him. Reminds me of the Alessandrini promo from FIFA 20 or FIFA 21 with the crazy sort of powershot crosses with awesome curves.
Agreed. 400K my ass. Can't R1 dribble, defenders still catch up to him or bodies him. Only thing he can do is finish. The pace merchants are gone in this EAFC.
Comparable to Varane sbc? Or is Varane still better cause of anticipate+?
Got him out of 77+ pp. Nice!
Same! I knew he would get another evo. Crazy stats even though with the unnecessary shooting upgrades and playstyles. Enjoy!! GG!
True, he won a duel with my Konate which is like one of the tallest CB's in this game. Stupid ****.
Should've bought him when he was 450K! His loan was so so good. In addition to that, I wouldn't have coin loss.
Even though he's feels heavy, with engine he get past players somehow. His attacking Ai and finishing is top notch! A bargain for what he can do.
Am I the only one or is his defensive positioning pretty bad? He's good with standing tackles and is aggressive. But other than that, I feel like other CB's does a better job then him. However, did 400K on fodders for him. Kinda waste to not let him play. Costed me alot of matches somehow.
Recommended by a friend to complete Varane even though I have Sali and Konate. Well let me tell you this, he is a complete garbage and I'm playing in Div2-Div1. Wasted my 400K! Call it a skill issue but his ball handling is ****. His positioning around and in the box is awfull. He just stands there and watch the attacker shoot instead of being aggressive and hunt the attacker to stop the shooting. I can assure you that Araujo, Saliba, Konate (evo), Bremer and VVD much better at (AI) defending positioning and agressiveness. His intercept+ is not even present. Don't waste your fodders on this.
For me pressing standing tackle right at the moment the striker/opponent receives the ball works wonders. Apparently being more agressive before the opponent receives the ball works better. Or else jockey backwards like 3 or 4 yards and let the striker come to you.
Agreed. He sucks even at CAM. Not 180K at all. Don't even see people using him in Div 3 and 2. Overrated in EAFC and in real football world :P
For the Ultimate Edition Evo? Definitely Inaki! He plays like Eusebio. Even the best defenders can't stop him. He is fast, strong, clinical in front of goal and really fun to use his powershot+ playstyle. The only downside is getting him full chem if you don't use full La Liga team. I even had to use Ghanaian coach. But it's all worth it! You won't regret it. You can use other evo's for Rashford.
I just can't play with him. He is too clunky, even though his speed and acceleration is crazy. Call it a skill issue but I prefer my Giuly on RM. On Striker he's decent but finishing is ****.
Is he really not usable despite having Relentless+? Man, every damn year packing this guy in the beginning of the game.
I have the feeling that he can get another evo after this because of his sprint speed not being too high compared to v.d. Ven and Tomori. So Konaté it is for me with this insane evo!
Should've bought him when he was 420K almost two weeks ago. Used him loan and he was a game changer.
One of the best at defending, but loses the ball pretty fast after obtaining it from the opponent. Costs me many matches somehow and I'm not even turning or dribbling with him. **** ball handling just like Araujo. Other than that he's an absolute beast.
Enjoy using trivela with him from the right side. Thank me later ;-)
What I'm looking for. Tesekkurler abi!
So effin good that I hate her. Nuff said.
Used his loan for two matches. To be fair, with this delay even he can't save you. What an atrocious gameplay. You don't play the game, it's just CPU vs CPU to be honest.
I thought I was the only one, but same with me. I also tried different roles, but still feels very underwhelmed. Like he's just running but not man marking and even in ball position he doesn't do anything special. Especially for this price, I expected way more. Even my Mainoo evolution does two times better the job as a box to box. And this isn't a skill issue, I'm in division 2 and I even switch him for Thuram sbc most of the times. I will sell him now as I think this is the peak of his price and strenghten my defense. Will use other untradeable CM's as I have enough.
Whenever he receives the ball, just turn one time to the left and shoot. You don't even need to take one step closer, his finesse just go in. Saved me many matches.
They really need to nerf her. It makes no sense. Even if the opponent plays with no chem on her, she bangs goals and has speed like it's nothing. Just everything works if you have her in your team. She is an icon status. Doesn't make any damn sense.
Also tried false 9, but he just doesn't make those runs so it's difficult to make the most out of him. I tried Poacher or Advanced Forward and that seems to do the job. Don't mind the playrole + or ++ at all. Just a visual ****.
Bought him for 480K and lost 60K already in a couple hours. Think I'm going to buy Xavi Hernandez icon instead. His price keeps rising. I doubt Valverde will rise aswell even though he will get a TOTW and it will be out of packs. Will stay around 450K. And to be honest, played a couple matches with him and he doesn't seem to perform like a 450K player imo. Tried different player roles. Only thing I've noticed is that he's rapid and fast. Other than that, pretty decent.
His crosses are insane. Just run through the whole wing and spam those crosses. You might even think he has the playstyle + of it. Did run him with engine.
Had him loan and played with it a few matches. Insane CM. Because his agileness, he can attack, turn, and defend so easily. His passes are sublime. If you need a box to box or attacking CM, this is your guy! Used Anchor and Hunter. Both works very well dependent on how you want to use him.
He is so good with attacking and defensive positioning. It's like a mini Gullit without the physical build. Can't go without him in my midfield. Almost flawless.
Maybe you already used it on another player. Or you did an evo before The Octopus, so his stats doesn't match the requirements of Box to Box anymore. Check if the stats are the same when finishing The Octopus.
This guy costs me matches. His positioning is awful and is not agressive at all. Want to sell him and use another player, but his price will rise a bit.
Very good! Hate the word, but you can call him ''meta'' ;-)
Consistent stay back RB. Very strong, not the fastest but positions well.
