He's my favourite Arsenal player and he's been in my team as False 9 since his SBC. Hundreds of games played with hundreds of goals and assists.
PHY isn't the greatest, but that's to keep his Strength low and remain Explosive. With Sniper he gets 99 in everything, and Strength right up to the limit for Explosive.
Here's hoping he gets a new club, or even a hero card in 27.
With Arsenal links I thought I'd whip up a Quansah evolution, and I accidentally made the best CB in the game.
All current evolutions, no 99 evolutions either.
Pretty much 99 everything with Engine, and still remains Lengthy.
I've given him Precision Header+ and Pinged+ cus that's what I want, but you can easily choose your own PS+.
Here's the chain:
Everything at Once
(Playstyles)
No Entry
The High Line
Leopard's Roar
(4th PS+)
Speed Demon
The Pivot Point
Face Value
Obviously the best PS+'s on CB's are Intercept, Bruiser and Anticipate, but I'm wondering what are perceived as the next best options?
The way I see it, I think it's out of these 3:
- Block = Makes a noticeable difference with blocks, particularly in stopping obvious attempts of finessing from the wing.
- Quickstep = Burst of acceleration helps with dealing with pacey lengthy attackers.
- Jockey = Great for manual defending, especially in combination with QS.
What do we think? Any interesting options I've missed?
I was originally drawn to this guy cus of the tall lean body type, and he has become the jewel in my first owner evolutions crown with many chain evolutions.
I for one can't wait for FC27 and start a new bunch of long-term chain evolutions!
Hands down the best evolution of the year.
​
There is zero chance this Jacko is ever leaving the team. 572 games played, been a beast in every single one of them. Even now he's still only slightly behind the power curve.
​
Show off your captains!
Quick question - what characteristics does Alexis' unique body type give him? I've just finished a really nice Evo for him and noticed he has a unique body type, so I'm wondering what I should look out for.
He's the evolution by the way, he's so sick as False 9.
Wanting thoughts on these two Havertz options. He'll play Advanced Forward at the top of 41212(2).
History in 10 (left): Rapid+ and more strength, making him Lengthy.
Donovation (right): Technical+ and ever so slightly better pace, shooting and dribbling.
I tend to lean towards Donovation. I don't really think I need Lengthy and Rapid+ because I don't really rely on through balls and running behind, and I really like Tech+.
I've also seen on here that Havertz R1 dribbling is nuts cus of his body type, and he feels like he already has Tech+. Could I be looking at a Tech++ player?
Cheers lads!
They could just re-upload then again tomorrow, but you never know.
A couple of days I posted an Alexis evolution using the History in 10 evolution. It was great... but then Born to Roam came out.
He's going to be my False 9 probably until the end of this game. 92 OVR sets him up for future evolutions (Finesse+ and Gamechanger would be brilliant), and with Engine chem he basically has 99 Pace, Passing and Dribbling.
His Physical stats are awful, but who cares, he'll just run around all the bruisers.
Thoughts?
First of all, been waiting a long time to Evo this card so he can be a False 9 next to Henry. I now have my two favourite ever forwards leading the line, very happy.
The History in 10 evolution is great for him, and today's Goal Bound evolution gives him Gamechanger too which is the only thing that was missing. If he didn't have Rapid+ already I'd switch it for something else, but he's otherwise perfect.
I have a choice though. Do I complete the final stage of the evolution to boost his Strength from 70 to 92, or skip the final stage and keep Explosive?
My style of play isn't reliant on through balls at all do Explosive for quick busts of acceleration is probably better than Controlled, but at 70 Strength he'll be bullied around.
An added bonus for not completing the evolution is that he'll keep Time Warp rarity, which means full chem.
What do you all think?
PS: Chain uses (almost) all active evolutions if anyone wants it.
Left is current, right is once the evolution is finished.
I play Saka as my CAM in a 41212(2) formation based on lots of passing. He's the only midfielder without Tiki+ and it would definitely suit, but I'm not sure if the stat boosts are worth all the coins and the +2 OVR.
It does give a very good dribbling boost though, and what he lacks in passing and shooting can be made up with chemistry styles.
So what do you think, pull the trigger?
Left is what I currently have, right is what it would become. He plays as a single Holding CDM.
Pro's:
- Gives probably the two most useful playstyles he needs at the moment.
- Great boost in stats, especially in passing, free kicks, agility and balance.
- Doesn't put him too high OVR, so he's ready for incoming 90 evolutions.
Cons:
- Not the greatest pace boost for this stage of the game.
- He'll miss out on the upcoming 88 and eventual 89 micro-evolutions that he's been feasting on to this point.
What do you all think?
