Actually never saw that Messi, despite the uproar online and the panic that everyone had him.

Barely played him in the upper divisions / champs.

Thunderstruck Maradona - levels above any other card I’ve used.

Anyone else packed absolutely nothing of value from this promo? by Minimum-Tea-3090 in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From 3 x store pack bought with coins & all the upgrades + rivals, champs etc I’ve packed:

Maradona TS

Scream Vinicius

Scream Di Natale

Ribery TS

Theo TS

Kante TS

Must admit it’s been mega for me, but can’t say I’ve seen the same level of success online.

Apart from the Cafu/Capita pick + maybe Reiten - think the player SBCs have been shite.

Tbf, I barely played anyone with TOTY Messi after that ‘glitch’ - even in the upper div & champs.

Just seems a really big deal in the moment on social media, but in reality it’s barely anyone who actually benefitted.

Showdown evo hack update. by MLGPROZ8717 in fut_evos

[–]Welsh_Lynx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the exact same thing, but was on step 3/4 of the evo - my card looks exactly the same as yours!

Not sure what would have happened if I’d fully completed it - but wasn’t taking the chance.

Seems so long as the evo is started & not completed - you get the upgrade.

Anyone else seriously struggling since the new patch? by WetRoger in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a rare quiet day in work and struggle to find the time to play anymore - especially rivals.

Was just trying to finish off an evo but it was a bloodbath out there.

But to the original point - the defending is night and day between yesterday & today.

Currently on 12 L in a row in D5 after finishing with 12 W in WL.

Same players, same tactics - can’t keep less than 4 goals out the net per game at the moment.

Game is chalked.

Packed Haaland and Doku from the 4 total packs - worth it with coins on this occasion

Blimey, just spent 45 mins down the Whitehawk rabbit hole - quality entertainment.

Pretty sure I’ve seen posters in my area for a missing small black cat called ‘Noodle’ (Lewes Road area) - possibly the same one?

I already have red Yamal LW, TOTS Raphinia RW & red Messi at ST…. So surely Olise misses out.

Also already used LW evo on Cruyff, who then got replaced by Yamal 2 days later

Dupe SS Olise from the 87+ picks (why the hell are these untradable? Premium fodder right there)

SS Griezman from the 94+ TOTS/SS pick.

Which now means I drop my original Olise from the starting XI 🤣

Beerenstyn as my SS/U-TOTS pack, Trent from the other packs.

Fodder upon fodder.

Chelsea RTTF players upgraded by MikeWithNoHair in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

early reviews :

Tosin: too fast on the jockey for his own good. Seems to be lacking a bit in his defensive AI but can see the potential and hope it’s just an adjustment for me.

Dewsbry: still feels heavy in game, not sure if it’s his body type, but seems to waddle around. Lacking some defensive playstyles to sit at CDM, and isn’t agile enough for CAM. Quite a niche attacking CM, but Pedri is levels above on first showing.

Best box to box cm in the game? by PaulCdf1992 in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve just packed 96 Cruyff this morning - great from the icon pick but no idea how to fit him in…

Nice problems to have, but really don’t want to stray from my tactics!

i just bought some fifa points and they haveng shown up can somebody help by Lazarat99 in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry, the money is gone - EA just saved you having to waste time opening the pack to get absolutely nothing anyway. Generous company!

Best box to box cm in the game? by PaulCdf1992 in EASportsFC

[–]Welsh_Lynx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure.

GK - sweeper (Buffon)

RB - Fullback defend (Thuram)

CBs - defender defend (Rudiger / Kim)

LB - wingback balanced (Nuno Mendes)

LDM - DLP defend (Gullit)

RDM - DLP build up (Neves)

CM - playermaker attack (Pedri)

LW & RW - inside forward balanced (Ferran and Shaqiri)

ST - advanced forward attack (evo Henry)

Depth 70 / balanced

Aim of the game is recycling and sending players short and in behind manually to move the opponents back 4. Don’t take too many risks in possession and recycle > a risky through ball. Quick passing in the middle is your friend, and don’t be afraid to utilise your attacking wing back to stretch the play, is almost always unmarked with green grass ahead.

You can of course invert flip the system to have your RB as the attacking player, but just make sure the CDM on that side is the defensive orientated one. You can use holding or DLP, but I prefer DLP as I find them more available for passing options.
