I don't know if you guys are satisfied with him but on my side I realized his 165 cm leg coverage make him feel slow.
I built him with 95 pace/acceleration and 97 dribbling stats yet he can't outrun anyone and even when launched with a 10m distance from his defender they still catch him.
I think there is too much to sacrifice if I had to increase these stats and I tried to slow dribble and pass more with him but without the through passing skills he is bad at passing.
His close range shooting is fine and he can dribble very smoothly and fast but I don't know if it has to do with his leg length/ coverage but when doing dt he seems to stay at almost the same place. What I mean is when cutting inside with Olise or Yamal a dt would avoid a tackle even from Maldini but with him it's inconsistent.
Overall he's decent but not consistent and a bit slow for a prolific winger.
I was looking into those eFootball “tricks” influencers share for getting Epics, like making a new game plan with GP players or leaving empty positions before spinning.
I couldn’t find anything in Konami’s patent supporting that.
What I did find is more interesting: Konami has Japanese lottery patents, JP5105497B1 and JP5599855B2, currently listed as active.
They describe a system where draw probabilities can change based on your player ID, cards you already obtained, and recent lottery history. For example, recently obtained cards can have their probability reduced, increasing the chance of getting something different.
The patent even mentions that reducing normal-card duplicates could indirectly increase the chance of getting a rare card, which is why it can limit how far back it looks at your previous pulls.
So if anything like this is used in eFootball today, your recent pulls and collection history would probably matter more than putting bad GP players in your starting XI.
Of course, having a patent doesn’t prove eFootball currently uses this exact system.
Still, I think this is way more interesting than the usual “change your squad before spinning” theories.
Has anyone actually tested spins based on recent pulls or cards already owned?
EDIT: Theres even an older patent that is more explicit, you can look on google for patent WO2013038590A1.
This one describes also that paid lotteries (in eFootball would be paid coins) having better rare-item odds than free ones.
This free Messi card literally carried the entire team to Div 1
I will keep this post really simple and short as connection and stability plays a really vital role regarding any sorts of PVP matches or any kind of online games. This run was on my second account and during this entire run most of the matches I played had decent connection of 4 bars only few of the matches had lags and delays, overall it was responsive and playable. But there are some glaring issues in this update as well as they nerfed speed badly. Sometimes players won't shoot at all in 1v1 with gk. Some of the passes and through ball feels wayward and slow. I'm a keyboard player and use PA3.
There's nothing new to say about tactics as i kept it simple with anchoring and defensive on rice and counter target on Messi.
And on the last note maybe it is off topic but still -
Farewell, Lionel Andres Messi
The little boy from Rosario who carried a dream, the man who carried a nation. The captain who proved that strength need not be loud as he came with talent, he stayed through suffering, he conquered with humility. And he left with something greater than trophies—honor. The No.10 may one day rest on another back, the armband may circle another arm, some numbers become memories yet some captains become lessons for life. Today the whistle may say farewell—but legends are eternal and endless.
Thank you, Captain

Also this weeks POTW box can be emptied, 3 spin limit is removed.
Slide n steal masterclass.
I started playing around the World Cup and I'm fully free to play. When this pack dropped, I only had 500 coins, but since I'm a Madridista and I love Gareth Bale from his time at Real Madrid, I said screw it, I'll risk it and take my chances. Luckily, I pulled him from the discounted 500-coin spin. He ended up carrying my team almost single-handedly, and I'm seriously impressed.
Position: Since he's a natural Prolific Winger, I tried him out wide first. But I just couldn't make any formation with wingers work for me, so I switched back to my narrow formation and put him at CF and that's where he shined.
Shooting: He doesn't have Blitz Curler skill, but when I shoot a Blitz Curler-style shot with him, it goes in almost every time. It isn't crispy slow-motioned like Del Piero one’s, but just give him the Long-range Curler skill and it works just as well.
Attacking AI: This is what I love most. Occasionally he drives me crazy by not running when I want him to (probably because of possession playstyle) but most of the time, though, his runs are insane. My go-to is a one-two between him and Rooney: Bale plays it to Rooney, bursts toward goal, and I just play a quick through ball. With his pace, no defender catches him, and it's one-on-one with the keeper. And I also noticed that he has the element of surprise like Ibrahimovic when he suddenly jumps and comes out of nowhere and score when you throw a random cross or pass.
Playstyle: I used to play Long Ball Counter and Quick counter, but this season I switched to Possession Game, and I'm enjoying it more than anything I've played recently.
Results: I never reached 1,735 rating before, but with Bale it was finally possible. I'm fairly sure Division 1 wouldn't have been that hard either, but I just want to secure Calafiori, so I didn't want to risk it and decided to stop there.
Out of every player in the pack, he was the one I wanted most (as I mentioned earlier, I’m a Madridista). But deep down, I didn't expect him to match George Best or Del Piero. But my God, he surprised me. I'd honestly put him up there with them.
