When you're trying to build an unstoppable team for Division PvP, you can't waste coins or training programs on positions that don't move the needle. Since we can't have endgame players everywhere instantly, we have to prioritize.

If you had to rank every position from absolute highest priority (game-changer) to lowest priority (replaceable), what does the current meta dictate?

I’ve managed to build a squad with almost every Top 3 player in their respective positions, but I’m still missing four major names from my collection. I'm trying to decide who to go all-in for next and who can wait.

1. Patrick Vieira

The Reason: Even with Ajak Rijkaard and Ballon d'Or Rodri, Vieira is in a tier of his own due to his unique player model and defensive reach.

2. Peter Schmeichel

The Reason: I use single booster Čech, but Schmeichel is the best "Defensive GK" for pure shot-stopping.

3. Pavel Nedvěd

The Reason: My AMF/SS spots are already stacked with big-time Hazard, World Cup Pelé, Kaka, and big-time Messi.

4. Edwin van der Sar

The Reason: He has a 107 rating, but most D1 veterans find Čech and Schmeichel more consistent.

Now that the Epic: Worldwide Clubs (Naruto Edition) pack has been out for two weeks, we’ve finally moved past the initial "anime hype" and seen how these cards actually perform in the sweatier Division 1.

If you’ve been hesitating and waiting for the consensus, here is the breakdown of whether this pack is a must-pull or a skip if you’re looking to climb the ranks.

I’m trying to decide which version of Vieira is better for the current meta.

On one hand, the Anchor Man version provides that disciplined positioning to protect the backline.

On the other, the Destroyer version is a physical beast who hunts down the ball all over the pitch.

Do you prefer the safety of an Anchor Man or the aggression of a Destroyer?

This guy never has a bad game against me. It’s nuts how consistent he is every single match. Ever since he first released in eFootball 24, he’s been the undisputed best RB in the game or at least top 2. The fact that he’s also a top-tier CB makes him even more broken.

The eFootball 2026 CF Tier List Explained

"Hey everyone, it’s Choburi! Today I’m going to deep-dive into a Tier List for the best Center Forwards in the current meta. Honestly, the environment right now is crazy every week we get a new, strong CF, so a lot of it comes down to personal preference and how the player 'feels' to you.

I’ve gathered almost every CF released since the big update. I’ll be ranking them from SS (Top Tier) down to C (Not very strong). Keep in mind, even a 'B' or 'C' here might still be usable, but compared to the monsters at the top, they fall behind."

### **SS Tier: The Absolute Best**

*These are the players you must have in your main squad.*

* **Gullit:** "He is arguably the strongest in the game. I can't play without him."

* **Ibrahimović:** "The AC Milan version is a total beast. Essential."

* **Del Piero:** "I personally love him. His movement and finishing are incredible."

* **Suárez:** "An absolute top-tier finisher."

* **Dembélé:** "His recent cards are insanely fast and strong."

* **Bale:** "I use him as a Super-Sub. His power is a game-changer."

* **Rummenigge:** "I rank him slightly higher than Eto'o. I use him as a Super-Sub lately."

* **Tevez & Álvarez:** "Both are extremely high level and very reliable."

* **Bellingham:** "I value him very highly, though he can also play in midfield."

* **Mbappé:** "Still very strong, though I’ve been focusing on players with better 'Blitz Curler' skills lately."

* **Jan Koller:** "The special 'target man' king. He’s in a category of his own."

### **S Tier: Very Strong**

Great players, but just slightly below the "God" tier.

* **Vinícius Jr. & Eto’o:** "Strong, but I don't prioritize them over the SS guys."

* **Saviola & Hazard:** "Great feel, but Hazard feels better as a Second Striker (SS) or AMF."

* **Shevchenko & Owen:** "Legends, but they don't quite make the 'must-start' list for me right now."

* **Neymar & Pelé:** "Both are actually better as Second Strikers than pure Center Forwards."

* **Onuachu:** "Another special tall player, like a mini-Koller."

### **A Tier: Good for Some, Bench for Others**

* **Aubameyang & Pato:** "They have speed, but the finishing isn't as elite."

* **Makaay & Van Nistelrooy:** "Decent, but I don't find myself choosing them often."

* **Gerd Müller & Zola:** "Zola is better on the wing. Müller is okay, but not meta."

* **Drogba:** "Very annoying to play against, but I don't use him much myself."

### **B & C Tier: The Rest**

* **B Tier:** Players like **Morientes**, **Lukaku**, or **Raúl**.

"They are fine if you like them, but they aren't 'meta' choices."

* **C Tier:** Mostly free players or older cards like

**Bergkamp** and **Vieri**. "I find them very difficult to use in high-level Division matches."

### **Chiburi’s Closing Advice:**

"For my SS rank, the order matters (left is stronger).

**Gullit** and **Ibra** are my favorites.

Remember, this list is just my opinion based on the new update! Because everyone has such high stats now, the most important thing is to find the player that fits *your* playstyle whether you like tall 'Target Men' like **Koller** or agile dribblers like **Del Piero**.

What do you guys think? Who are you starting in Division 1? Let me know in the comments!"

With the recent wave of crossovers like Captain Tsubasa and Naruto Shippuden, the card art in eFootball 26 has taken a massive turn toward anime styles.

I’m curious to hear from the players who don't actually watch anime. When you see cards like the Naruto Marcelo or the Captain Tsubasa Rummenigge, what’s your honest reaction?

Personally, I think the Naruto designs like the Sasuke/Bale card are some of the most creative we've seen, but I can see why a football purist might find them cringe. What’s the verdict?

I’ve hit the wall with eFootball 26. Every Thursday, Konami drops these new cards whether it’s the Naruto collaboration or the latest Big Time epics but for what?

The events are exactly the same every single week. There is zero creativity in the game modes. We are stuck in an endless loop of:

The Division Grind: Sweating out PVP matches against the same Big Time Hazard/Messi squads.

Vs. AI League: Mindlessly clearing events just to get a handful of booster tokens or a skill program.
