Hello all! Me again! We're trying to bring back some of the social aspects of the forums. Everyone loves the EVOs of their favorite players, let's see some of those evos!!
I'm a Spurs fan and with Archie getting so much playtime, I had to get him into my squad. At this point I'm waiting for a good second playstyle!
Nice to see some familiar names from the old forums over here. Hopefully the SBC thread makes a return soon as well, although I think we’ll need to some major changes here before that happens.
Anyway, here’s mine. He was outdated for a while and chilling in the club for the last couple of months, but now back in the starting 11.
This was originally an objectives reward, not a player who I ever planned on using. I picked this one for shadow striker++, not planning on doing anything more than testing it out once like I do almost every new player I get. Not easy to fit into the squad I had back then either, but I just had to make changes. The (my) rating for the original item is as follows:
Pace: 8.5-9/10 which is the very best you could expect based on the bio
Shooting: 9.5/10 finished everything clinically, even finesse shots with no playstyle. A ruthless goalscorer who can turn the striker into a shadow
Passing: 8.5-9/10 led in assists as well, wonderful link up and quick passing, long passing (was) somewhat poor but the problem rarely showed
Dribbling: 11/10 and that's before 5 star skills and trickster. Tested in all modes, quick turns, exquisite first touches, and mesmerizing footwork leaves defenders completely helpless. L stick dribbling was never an issue for this item. Regularly led matches in dribbles completed, and never in possession lost
Defending: 6.5/10 what do we expect, but the effort is there
Physical: 7/10 again, what do we expect. But again, defenders hardly even get close, so they can't take advantage
Positioning: 10/10 probably the main reason why this was the best player I've had
And that was before all of the improvements from evolutions, and relentless to give opponents a nightmare they can't wake up from.
Currently, numeric ratings don't do justice. If this card was tradable and worth 15m on the market, I still wouldn't consider selling.
Thank you very much if you read all of this, and also thank you to whoever is responsible for releasing this item in a place where I could acquire it.
