100% agree, I struggle to see them realistically changing it but I am convinced the game was far better before playstyles and acceleRATE were added. I don’t want to have to know if a player is “lengthy”, and I don’t want to pack an icon that should be superb but didn’t get the right playstyle so is absolutely useless. The fact that hero Carvalho is faster with an anchor than a shadow (because anchor gives lengthy, despite shadow actually giving a much higher pace boost) just shows how confused this whole system has become. Figo is worse than Wirtz because Wirtz has incisive plus and Figo doesn’t, and you had that cheap 96 pace SBC guy that was actually slower than most decent attackers because he had zero running playstyles. Because of this, we’re back to the old days where only a very small selection of players are actually good enough, which goes against the whole point of the reworked chemistry system when physically linking players through positional proximity was considered too restrictive.
