I can't tell what I wish EA and all their employees, but its not a friendly wish, I can say

I tested him yesterday in 10 rivals matches (Div4) and some friendlies with my friends - he played as a cdm and a cm, Shadow was the chemstyle, played on full chem. His short passes where great, he also is very strong at corners and his physical presence on the field is nice, the low stamina wasn't a downer for me, but it take some time to get used to him. I tried out some other midfielders before, like Kante Evo, Tchoumanie Rad-Evo, Alaba WW, Goretzka WW, Laimer RTTK and many more, but Stones is really better ig, but like I said, it took some time to get used to him - 8.5/10 imo

I've done her and she is really nice. It was a emotional SBC, cuz Alex was the first woman, I followed when it cames to female football and I still like her passion and presence on the pitch <3

In 10 years of UT, this will be maybe the best card I've ever packed period ****radeable for sure), but this year was wild for me with TOTY Xavi, TOTY Dias, Mbappe (Gold) and some other sick cards - I packed over 10 Icons (4 out of picks) this year, in 10 years before, I packed 0 Icons and only one TOTY... Iniesta, back in time. EA put all my not used luck into this year and even if I don't play WL (cuz I have no time), I always got my 7 wins and play in Div3 as a "more casual" player - you can achieve everything, I wish everyone the BEST pack luck and as much wins as you need - STOPTOXIC!

just use cards you like lol I bet someone of my squad is outdated but im still in Div3 lol

its just like a review lol, i miss the old futbin without these griddy kids here who downvotes everyone...

Not meta at this stage of the game? Sure, but I don't care - I like him irl and I've done him and - suprise - I still can win in Div4 with a fun squad.

yeah, I thought they will bring more honorable mention cards or sth and now they came up with useless heroes, who are only fodders...

a card like this in FIFA 14 and we all would ERUPT... nowadays... nothing special.

I just made him, cuz its a fun card and at least, I just want to play this game for fun, not for the meta... yeah, more than Div4 isn't possible for me atm, but its okay, I rather play for fun without the cutback-high-pressure-stuff than go full meta and use players, I don't really like.

My packluck this year is insane, hands down... I play UT since FIFA 14 and I never packed anything really good (only Iniesta TOTY back in the years), but this year, I packed Ruben Dias TOTY, VDS TS, Carlos Alberto, Hemp TS, Rodrygo RTTKS (or TOTGS, dunno what type of card it is exactly) and now this guy out of a 77+ (3x) pack (from the crafting upgrade)... sure, all untradeable, but it seems EA want me to play... and I hate it.

I don't care bout the SBC price, got a ton of fodders and since I only play with players I've packed (or got cheap at the beginning), I will made this SBC - I love Beckham <3

thank god I hold on emotional players and dont put them into SCBs <3

him next to VVD is just awesome (Div4) - I tried out many other CBs and played a very long time with Cordoba, but needed a french CB from the Bundesliga for chemistry, so I tried out Upa first, but Simakan is way way better - just a cheap beast :)

I feel it the complete different way... his short passes are amazing, but he is not a "nobrainer" imo, you need to look in the right direction and "plan" passes a bit more... I dunno how to explain it (but I won't say you had a skill issue, cuz I hate this toxic bs).

overpriced? yes! better options on the market? yes! low stamina for a cdm? yes! i'm to lazy to switch him ig? yes! i will do him anyway, cuz I love Stones and he was always a beast for me in the past? YES!

I've done him, cuz he was some of the beasts I used back in time and since I want a more fun squad, I let him play over some meta-players. I'm in Div4, I go out 8-10 wins at the WL... so its okay to have some fun for me - sadly most of the players use the same players, but its a nice feeling destroy a Mbappe, Eusebio. Ginola, Futre and Di Natale squad with such a fun squad <3

sadly not as good as his former OP cards (like the Showdown last year) D:

I used Havertz WW, Mendy Gold, Capdevila Evo, Bacha and some others as LB and everyone has his downs and ups. Mendy is a well-rounded solution and seems cracked for me, Capdevila is also well-rounded but more defensive, meanwhile Havertz is just a tank, with great strength and height + nice speed with Shadow or Hunter - I love all of them, just try out players and find the best one for yourself. <3

I cant wait for the upgrade, this guy is a machine for me, better than Virgil and also useable as a fullback - im in div4 ^^

when you only focus on meta, I always use a fun team with untradeables and still can win in Div4, but I bet all above Div4 is full of Mbappes and stuff (I mean, Div4 is already full of them) xD

I packed him tradeable, hold on him and I'm very happy. I used Capdevilas Evo before, Bompastor (both versions) and some others, but this guy is a beast - the playstyles are the game changers imo!

14k for a player like this is unreal, he feels so cracked for me (Div4)... outruns most defenders, can score goals from everywhere and very strong on the ball.

I packed him and since I love these little beast cards, I will use him next to Muriel instead of my standard players - we need more fun in UT <3

absolute beast, I use him next to Lahm and I tried out some others before (played a long time with Evo Kante and RA Tchouameni), but Laimer is a pure beast... dunno why he is so cheap (I play in Div4 and my squad isn't bad at all imo, for a non meta player) ^^

and let me guess: my gameplay will be worse and incosistent too? I hope so (and I know its just a fake account) xD

it took me some time to know how to play with him (got him untradeable and I try to use all of the good ones) and now he is a important part of my team. his dribbling is insane, his shoots and passes too, he feel very good on the ball. the only downside is his low phy, but when you know that, its a very nice card.

so many ppl talk bout power curve and stuff and I still have no probs in Div3 with Kante 91 (FB) and some other, maybe outdated players (Lahm Base or Kelly Evo or Hemp FS or Rodrygos TOTGS card)... and I see also many teams with identical or even lower cards lol. Just play the game and dont give af on the meta and stuff, important is HOW YOU play with the cards you have! I wish all good luck at rewards! <3

I swear, the best CB I've used this year. He is so strong and after the Evo even better. Score at least one goal after a corner and feels like a agile Tank, I like him even more than my TOTY Dias. Div3.

the inconsistent gameplay is the main reason, I lost all the fun... I have no probs to come up against these meta squads (Div4 atm), but it sucks, that the gameplay change every day or every evening after a few games, even with the exact same ping...

easily one of my all-time-favorite cards (includes her Evo) ever (and I play UT since FIFA 14) - when she got a TOTS (with Hemp) I will sold my whole club for Lauren and Chloe <3

sure the first high rated Icon I pack is van Nistelrooy as a GK xD

I used her gold, packed the TS and made the FS, but this one will be too expensive, cuz I never trade and always choose untradeable ones, but since Kelly isnt there, i hope for an Kelly TOTS SBC. I saved all fodder just for her, emotional aspect. Div3 btw.

I think so, I'm at Level 25 atm xD

I still use him in Div4 next to Kane TOTGS and he is awesome - very good striker, with nice playstyles (power header, trivela) and always on the right place when Kelly and Hemp ballin' out the crosses <3

I'm in Div3 atm lol... I play UT since 2013/14 and always played like this... I got Kroos RTTF, some Icons, Mbappe (Gold) and some more. You get so much packs from objectives, Rewards and stuff + SBCs, so its not hard to play with players you've packed without spending any money lol

Dynamic POV: You are 3:2 in front, its 90.+4 and your opponent made a last attack

I will try him out - looks like a good old beast card for me

can approve, he is really good on the pitch, same for Stones btw (I play in Div4 - sad that you forced to note that in every comment, cuz ppl spamming Div10)

same, same... the match making is still bull**** and I dunno why they adjust/fix it, so you came up against equal teams or - better - equal players (with the same skill as you). I play UT since 2014 and I ask myself every year, why I still play this game and I can't give myself an answer... its like a drug, but weed made me chill, this game made me RAGE.

my totgs Kane outpaces so many players and I even dunno why...

I would say everyone is toxic - im from Germany and I never dm anyone or do toxic stuff (including no cutbacks), but when anyone does toxic stuff to me, I do the same for sure.

good for a player like me, who don't have time for WL and don't buy points - I'm in Div4 and only use untradeables or cheaper cards + SBC cards.

same here, why I should quit the last games when I can give wins? Idc if its ok or not, its for my karma storage.

I will never forget the good old days, where I run a 4321 with his IF (86 back in the days) next to Tevez IF (must be FIFA 14-16, if I'm right) - since I have his gold untradeable and loved him, I've done this SBC, cuz I got a ton of fodders and no real use for them (not so much that I would be able to do the icon sbcs or something + I got not much coins, because I just play with untradeables out of rewards)... :D

I made him, cuz he was a beast back in time, but sadly he doesn't feel good for me... even with Hunter. Kane TOTGS got a Hunter too and feels way faster... its always the same with this game lol

I used Neymar, Hemp TB, Pires TB and many more, but this guy is different. I got him untradeable and thought he is just a L, but his dribbling + finesse is really sick.

Was not really class as a RB for me, but as a CDM, he is a machine.

I bought him, cuz I can't play with my Dembele IF or Malcom SD or any other RM atm - he is small and not very strong, but when you get used to him, he is class. Fast, agile, can dribble, can shoot, can pass and for that price, he is just awesome imo :) (Div4)

I can't understand this price... this guy will upgrade, he plays so good and better than Virgil for me + he can also played as RB or LB, where he is also very solid. I'm in Div4 and use him atm as a RB, cuz I want something different than the known-ones like Bacha, Havertz WW or Capdevila Evo - absolut beast + very great at defense work (I don't need a offensive fullback atm)

this will be the highest worth card I ever packed in 10 years of UT, its untradeable, but its ok

I hate myself for starting UT shortly after that SBC expired, but I would use her as a LB, since I packed Hemp TB at the beginning.

FINALLY! I still used her normal Evo and she is just awesome! After I was able to upgrade Hemps TS card, I now can also upgrade my Kelly <3

I packed Cordoba shortly after I began and he is still in my starting 11 - so beastly + nice playstyle (very great at corners)

same in Div4 for me

92 CM with Powerhouse - sick passing, sick defending, easy to link, endless stamina and all for free? I'll take it for the FUN

this + sometimes when I start a attacking run, two players run so near to each other until they collide lol and this happens at least once per game... I hate it.

*FIFA 14/15

I swear, this guy is a machine - I bought him yesterday, he gave me 7 wins and scored 18 goals with 4 assists in 12 games in Div4... bet it would be over 25 goals but I hitted the post/cross a few times and they nerfed trivela a bit :D

I need to comment again - I got her untradeable as I began with EA FC (I wanted to make a break, but you guys know how it is, we are in the same boat) and she is still my captain. Her crosses are insane, her speed build up is awesome, she can dribble, she can shoot, trivelas and finesse too, free kicks are sick, corners too... really no real downside beside her height and phy, 10/10 - I use her with FINISHER after I tested nearly every chemstyle out. Hempi <3

EA FC 24 - Rating (predicted)

PAC 96 SHO 75

PAS 78 DRI 85

DEF 80 PHY 82

86 OVR

he is very nice, defend good, attack good, assist good but yeah, I think everything over 1m is to much but i never trade, so i got never more coins than 500k, but i always pack untradeable high priced cards like him lol xD

Hemp is life, but I dont spam only crosses, cuz she is also very good at dribbling and even trivelas :D

OH YEAH, I've talked with a friend a few days ago that Kelly needs an upgrade and here it is! <3

Me: "I want Doumbia!"

Mom: "We have Doumbia at home!"

Doumbia at home:

absolute machine as a CDM for me - feels like good old Kante and the price for the SBC is so low

best card for me, I used the gold one until the Evo came out and he is just awesome <3

I use her and Hemp TS together, cuz I missed Bacha (started in the middle of Nov) :D

Saw the wrong player in the SBC and done it, cuz Alex Sandro is pure nostalgie, thx EA :3

I needed him for chem and let him play next to VVD, with Shadow as a chem style, in Div5/4 and I swear, he acts way better than VVD most of the time. He is such a beast on the field, the only downside is, that he hasn't a PS+.

same, I used Griezmann POTM before, she is a bit smoother and faster, but with the same OP finesse shot - Div4

I packed her untradeable (as most of my players) and she is a machine! <3

the only good thing is, that I will finish this season easily - I mean, I finished the last two ones too and I play very casual - the only W from EA (that you can finish these seasons without playing 24/7 or many hours per day) :D

I wish you the best luck, packed him this morning out of the rewards

this dynamic is like: 99 PHY

you never used him or? was a legend back in FIFA 17/18

now I tested him a few more games and with Deadeye, he is really sick on the Wing and for sure on the ball

Another upgrade for the best untradeable card I've ever packed in 10 years of UT (and most of them, I've packed this year, the only exception is Iniestas TOTY card back in time, who was worth around 650k lol)

I don't get that game... his balance is so worse, but ig he feels not chunky, he feels smooth (I use Shadow for him as a B2B)... meanwhile, Hemp TS feels sometimes like a truck for me... why is this game so freaking inconsistent in every aspect?!

everyone is like "how did xyz a toty?" - lol, you ppl voted the toty, for sure ppl will vote for meta players... even when its sad

I came up against this guy yesterday and holy ****, he was like an ICE blastin' through my players, but thank god, rage quit is still possible

I need him for chemistry, but he is also one of my fav players IRL and he feels really good IG... I dunno why some cards look mid and then perform like Icon cards ig... same for Makengo and Karamoah for example, I tried out many other players at the time I used these two and they where always better. Man, thats prime FIFA gaming every time.

yes, but it seems futbin don't show it (I put him into my squad and he show up with 1 chemistry, but ig he has 3 chem)

I tried out many chemstyles, but Finisher was the best for her imo. Her sprint speed and acc is already cracked, when you know how to play/use her. ^^

yeah, he is very smooth on the ball (I use Shadow) and can also score some goals (not wondering, he is a ST - not this card, I know), really like him (and he was one of the players who played as I was young, so just a little legend for me)

same :D

I use him in Div 4

I got her TS shortly after I start with UT and she got over 650 games now - its just a small upgrade, but since my team is nearly complete (only improvemts would cost more than 3m coins or packluck), I just have done her, cuz I love her, but atm, this card feels not as good as her TS card, but maybe I need some time...

he was one of the footballers out of my youth, surely I've done him instantly and he is very solid with Shadow for me.

I swear, I've packed this guy (and Terland) over 10 times, even when I put him into the dupe SBC, he come back out of it - please, leave me alone, Bernardo Silva 2.0

Yeah, I only got my 7 wins per week and EA gave me a ton of sick cards this year, like Kroos RTTF, Desailly Golazo, Xabi Golazo (93), TOTY Dias and at last him out of a 88 dupe pack trade-in lol..

xD

her trivela shoots are insane, sadly I can't find the review section (I paused with UT a while).

same bro, I just watch Zweback for the fun (and creative content), nothing more

100% absolute corner beast. Corner by Beckham, Desailly, goal.

yeah, I just spend my fodders at emotional players I like IRL, like this one (Stones) or Havertz or Adama or Kane... just play the ones you like (it is possible to play with them, watch Zweback with his emotional evos for example).

YEAH, nice to see other ppl here who loved her card

thats the passion I love and miss since the early UT days

sometimes you need to bench someone... I benched Hemp TB and Kane TOTGS for other, lower rated cards, but they fit better in my squad and playstyle - you can still bring them as subs ^^

its all about luck... I play UT for 10 years now and got the best cards ever this year, but all untradeable for sure, like TOTY Dias, TS Hemp, Capita, TS VDS, Rodrygo TOTGS (or RTTK, dunno, the 88 one), Kroos RTTF and some more... would be sick if I could sell them all, but sadly I can xD

whats your fav track from the OST this year? I can't decide between Poster Boy, Nothing Matters and There She Goes <3
