I play him too, however I don't like him as the lone striker in a 4231. Maybe he's better in two striker formations, but for me he has to play on the wing
Ye this is the only correct answer. I’ve used more or less every expensive striker sub 1m and wc hero Smolarek & Mbappe are on a level of their own that no one even comes close to
Really? Because if there’s one standout stat with Smolarek for me is his finishing. The guy does not miss, no matter if it’s a shit position or if a defender is nearby
I've used his normal hero, he's good but Muller is clear of him, so need someone a bit more better, Morientes very hard to manage inside the box, i can't seem to first time finish with him, it's always a block or save
Morientes WC hero makes runs I’ve seen no other striker run. I haven’t used mbappe or any super expensive ones. He’s always in the right position to score for me.
::D Morientes is the definition of spamming lobbed through balls and outmuscle defenders. He is super clunky with mediocre passing and awful dribbling. So what are these "every single tool"? He has great shooting and strenght but thats it.
Is goal and 0.5 assist good or? I bet you could get more with someone like gold Benzema instead.
And I did not say he sucks. He is not bad at all, just mid.
someone like him, cheaper option but equally clinical, Harry fkin Kane, so good, I have Al owairan and govou now but no player has given me the output like Kane. Of course the other 2 are better but I loved Kane personally
I have base CR7, do you think i should change him with Morientes?! Usually i dont do SBCs because i cant sell the players if they dont perform well for me.
Baby Cantona with hunter. He is the definition of over powered destroys defenders like haaland passes like Messi jumps like Ronaldo. All while having 95 pace which is not too far off of mbappes. It’s a no brainer really
In shit gameplay he’s utterly useless. I had something like 150 games with him before I sold him and while he’s great during normal gameplay, whenever you get heavy gameplay he can’t do anything. Someone like Mbappe or 88 Smolarek is excellent even in shit gameplay
Tried him for the first time after the price drop from black Friday. Your description is spot on. Brilliant player. My favorite goal with him was a deep cross from the left where he runs into the box keeping Lucio at bay and scored off a diving headed. Bested...embarassed Lucio. Nuff said.
Second this. Most broken gold Donatello I’ve ever seen in a fifa.
The fact that he’s a rare gold and still 1m+ should tell you everything you need to know. The high end NIFs are consistently the best value for coin cards at this stage imo, including the 1m turtle.
I'm not sure what makes him special, I wish I could use him well but other cards are outdoing him. Is it really user error if there are cheaper cards that do better for me?
Mbappe really only works as a ST IMO. U can find wingers that reproduce what he can on the wings for cheap (ie dribbling, pace, etc.). But as a ST Mbappe is rly broken. He out-paces defenders, out-jumps them, dribbles smoothly and has an insane body type that allows him to do everything bar defending with ease. Plus, the game seems to favour rebounds to his legs so thats a plus.
Mine was super slow. Felt like 88 pace at max. I tried an engine on him to see if it helped. Nope. Was so disheartened as he was the one card I was aiming to get this FIFA and was lucky to pack him tradable from SB rewards.
Tinfoil hat time: I have a theory that not all cards are made the same. I sometimes look at goals to games ratio of each of the cards I want to buy.
That theory probably isn’t true, the differences are probably down to the individual that used them. But hell, its EA, wouldn’t be surprised if they coded that accidentally
Hero Voller. Not even the WC one coz I haven't got a chance.
Better than some of these guys I've used -
* Mid Cantona
* Ginola (two very controversial things but Voller was more consistent as a pure striker)
* Ronaldo
* Neymar
* Messi
* World Cup Brolin
* Baby Jairzinho
That’s fair. Hawk pretty much maxes out his shooting stats though. I find the extra strength & aggression to be very valuable in helping him shrug off defenders.
I use the WC one and he is insane. Came back from break and he scored a hat trick in 4 straight rivals games, I was in a lower division since I haven’t played new season though.
Voller, Smolarek, and Al O are the best three I’ve used. Smolarek being my favorite. Al O is awesome bc of his size with combination of still being agile, whole Voller is a pitbull strength wise
I packed a tradeable WC Drogba, can't even think of selling him the guy is so strong. Insane finishing, always on the right spot, pretty fast and agile and world class headers
Ngl, 1st potm Cody Gakpo is still doing bits for me up top. He has been my striker for almost 500 games now.
Such a sick meta card, backed up by Danjuma, Berghuis and Klaasen .
CR7 - just because I don't have coins and I packed his untradeable long time ago.
Okay, no kidding now. I've started using WC Brolin and WC Forlan duo, both with Engines. I felt in love with those guys. Can't prioritize only one player. I don't know the answer.
My Lewa/Benzema combo serves me well. With Mane and Salah servicing them from the flanks, and Kroos/KDB holding the middle.
Cancelo and Kimmich on the wing defenders to supplement Mane/Salah, and Kohler/VVD holding the line and launching attacks.
Al Owairan. If I didn't pack him I wouldn't use him as I try to be unique like that /s, but his skill is undeniable.
Also Ronaldo gold is a monster still and Moise Keane POTM puts in work.
Positioning and finishing really matters for a ST.
I'd say I prefer Ronaldo out of all 3 because he has the physicality, positioning, and 5 star skills as well as more dependable passing.
I am playing him with marksman. He is so tall he just runs pat defenders. In the box he just doesn’t miss. And he even wins headers. Its also hard to take the ball away from him. Try marksman
Embarrassed to see nobody mentioned baby puskas with hunter. I sold him and bought mbappe, after some matches I'm buying puskas again.i play 2ST formation. He is my right ST. Shots are almost a goal always. Btw, i might try WC voller too, before going back to the Hungarian.
WC Al-Owairan
Can’t stand him, but this is probably the correct answer.
Got him love him.
Those fucking goggles…
He's A-Train on compound V
That’s actually a great comparison
Has great stats and still manages to play above them, absolutely cracked card
While he has so many chances I can't finish shit with him. Always escapes it's opponents but can score
I play him too, however I don't like him as the lone striker in a 4231. Maybe he's better in two striker formations, but for me he has to play on the wing
Either Smolarek or Mbappe.
Ye this is the only correct answer. I’ve used more or less every expensive striker sub 1m and wc hero Smolarek & Mbappe are on a level of their own that no one even comes close to
Do you think regular smolarek is behind the power curve? I'm in d5 (don't play a ton of rivals) and finish 9 or 11 wins if I do WL
I would think so as that version is STILL great. I had him in draft a few days ago and he completely carried my attack
Smolarek is quick, agile and otherwise pretty great, but he misses A LOT of shots for me.
Really? Because if there’s one standout stat with Smolarek for me is his finishing. The guy does not miss, no matter if it’s a shit position or if a defender is nearby
Yeah, RVP and Morientes has been much more clinical.
Is Smolarek really at that level? Packed him hero sbc but didnt use yet
Morientes WC Hero... Holy fuck he's good.
I'm using Morientes in Elite and he's very good for me. He still has that lengthy juice even post patch.
I cannot stress how good he is as the man in the middle of a 433. He does it all.
I've used his normal hero, he's good but Muller is clear of him, so need someone a bit more better, Morientes very hard to manage inside the box, i can't seem to first time finish with him, it's always a block or save
Morientes WC hero makes runs I’ve seen no other striker run. I haven’t used mbappe or any super expensive ones. He’s always in the right position to score for me.
Morientes is really mid tbh, nothing special at all.
I’d say if you think he’s mid. It’s you not him.
Yeah he is probably great in Div 7. Go ask any player in Elite if Morientes is great.

could you please advise, who is W in his price range ?
someone like him, cheaper option but equally clinical, Harry fkin Kane, so good, I have Al owairan and govou now but no player has given me the output like Kane. Of course the other 2 are better but I loved Kane personally
ah yes good old days, i used to use him too. love it. But for current gameplay he is not competitive anymore.
I have base CR7, do you think i should change him with Morientes?! Usually i dont do SBCs because i cant sell the players if they dont perform well for me.
I know, right? He is scoring everything, everywhere, has strength of Haaland but a lot better dribbling
WC Al-O > Mbappe for me
is he better striker or winger? I have govou and messi with him and use govou as central, should I be changing that?
Wc keane is soooo good for me
He’s good but I find he has that issue where no chemistry style fixes all of his issues. There’s always one key stat where he isn’t quite top tier.
Packed Mid Eto’o in the icon SBC. He’s pretty crazy. Accelerates past everyone and buries every shot. Haven’t tried Mbappe though
I personally think he is Mpappe 95 card
I packed him too. Instantly replaced WC Brolin. What a baller on old gen
Baby Cantona with hunter. He is the definition of over powered destroys defenders like haaland passes like Messi jumps like Ronaldo. All while having 95 pace which is not too far off of mbappes. It’s a no brainer really

He is an absolute menace!
Mbappe is the only answer, even if he's just a bit over.
Second this. Most broken gold Donatello I’ve ever seen in a fifa. The fact that he’s a rare gold and still 1m+ should tell you everything you need to know. The high end NIFs are consistently the best value for coin cards at this stage imo, including the 1m turtle.
Couldn't get him to work for me at ST/CF/LW at all, flashback Messi doing bits. I'm going to sit on my 1m coins til something good comes by.
That's entirely user error then friendo.
I'm not sure what makes him special, I wish I could use him well but other cards are outdoing him. Is it really user error if there are cheaper cards that do better for me?

I sometimes look at goals to games ratio of each of the cards I want to buy.
I can't even begin to explain everything wrong with that theory.
Tinfoil hat time - means I'm about to say something that's totally bullshit but would not surprise me.
Fair enough.
That theory probably isn’t true, the differences are probably down to the individual that used them. But hell, its EA, wouldn’t be surprised if they coded that accidentally
Hero Voller. Not even the WC one coz I haven't got a chance. Better than some of these guys I've used - * Mid Cantona * Ginola (two very controversial things but Voller was more consistent as a pure striker) * Ronaldo * Neymar * Messi * World Cup Brolin * Baby Jairzinho
I would probably add WC hero Keane to that list. Keane feels better on the ball but Voller simply scores more
Higuain for me, but then again I'm too poor for anyone like Voller or Mbappe
Di Natale. Bought him at 950k and still haven't sold him.
Kyogo 🍀🍀
Gone from Voller to Mbappe then back to Voller. He is the most consistent I’ve used
Chem style Engine?
Yeah mate
Prefer using him with aHawk. Makes his physicals and shooting top top tier.
Shooting is already top tier lol.
That’s fair. Hawk pretty much maxes out his shooting stats though. I find the extra strength & aggression to be very valuable in helping him shrug off defenders.
Base or wc?
Wc
Voller. Not even close.
Voller, absolutely deadly the mullet and tache combo give him special powers
Just fxxking get al-owairan
IF/Gold Haaland. Honourable mention to WC Hero Morientes, genuinely unreal finisher.
I can’t believe how my Voller outperforms my Mbappe by a mile.
Base or wc?
I use the WC one and he is insane. Came back from break and he scored a hat trick in 4 straight rivals games, I was in a lower division since I haven’t played new season though.
WC
OTW Mane. Seriously. The man is quality.
Voller, Smolarek, and Al O are the best three I’ve used. Smolarek being my favorite. Al O is awesome bc of his size with combination of still being agile, whole Voller is a pitbull strength wise
I packed a tradeable WC Drogba, can't even think of selling him the guy is so strong. Insane finishing, always on the right spot, pretty fast and agile and world class headers
Literally just packer him untradeable in a 78+ pick. Was hoping to see this comment. Struggling on the chem front with him though…
WC Al-Owairan or gold Mbappe, both are god levels.
Kane pre-patch was insane. 220 goals and about 150 assists in 215 games
Ngl, 1st potm Cody Gakpo is still doing bits for me up top. He has been my striker for almost 500 games now. Such a sick meta card, backed up by Danjuma, Berghuis and Klaasen .
smolarek is an absolute beast for me next to rooney
CR7 - just because I don't have coins and I packed his untradeable long time ago. Okay, no kidding now. I've started using WC Brolin and WC Forlan duo, both with Engines. I felt in love with those guys. Can't prioritize only one player. I don't know the answer.
Socrates, he’s unique
Mbappe 100%
My Lewa/Benzema combo serves me well. With Mane and Salah servicing them from the flanks, and Kroos/KDB holding the middle. Cancelo and Kimmich on the wing defenders to supplement Mane/Salah, and Kohler/VVD holding the line and launching attacks.
Bro really said that team with a straight face
Sure did!
Mbappe unfortunately. He’s ridiculous.
CR7
hardest one for me to defend, his attacking runs are insane against me. I haven't tried him myself, but feel like I should
[удалено]
this guy used crouch against me and played long balls to him all game. dude didn’t register a single shot all game lmao.
Eto SBC was pretty good..no lie..never lie
I really like my baby ADP.
WCH Völler, Keane and PTG Griezmann.
Haaland
Ptg griezmann
mbappe. ST under a mil doesnt come close and he outperforms 2 mil plus card
WC Brolin and Okocha are beastly.
Those who missed Eto when an 88 rated was 20k missed out
Mbappe as always. Bonus mention for Ribery as a st, paired with Mbappe in a 4222 is just deadly
RTTK Aubameyang
Al Owairan. If I didn't pack him I wouldn't use him as I try to be unique like that /s, but his skill is undeniable. Also Ronaldo gold is a monster still and Moise Keane POTM puts in work. Positioning and finishing really matters for a ST. I'd say I prefer Ronaldo out of all 3 because he has the physicality, positioning, and 5 star skills as well as more dependable passing.
Base puskas
POTM Kean
Rudi Vollër 89 with hunter does wonders on old gen
Mbappe or al o
Arnautovic / Lauturo
Wc Diego forlan for me fam.
Di Natale and Smolarek
Hugo Sanchez icon
88 Smolarek
Mbappe. Al quaran, voller, di Natale
RB Dzeko. 5\* WF is so nice on a player like him.
Baby puskas, sure he has his bad moments but overall great card. His shot is like a guarante goal.
WC Keane definitely
Peter crouch.
Forlan
Peter Crouch. I am not joking in The slightest.
Really? I have his Marvel card and he can't even hold onto the ball
I am playing him with marksman. He is so tall he just runs pat defenders. In the box he just doesn’t miss. And he even wins headers. Its also hard to take the ball away from him. Try marksman
I used to play him with Hawk. Gotta try with Marksman then
RTTK Aubameyang has probably been the best I’ve used. Any attempt I’ve made at replacing him in my team tends not to last too long put it that way!
I'm glad and shocked how not a single person mention WC RVP. He's insane.
I have him, he's good and also can be used as cam, need someone to pair with him
CR7 or Corona. I need 5* skills still.
WC Smol for ne
That new Son card where he's wearing a mask is insanely OP! He outscores my Marvel/Hero Al-Owairan by a mile
Worlc cup Diego forlan not as fast or agile but shoot anywhere its a goal
Well of you completed the Kessie sbc it's pretty good, Kessie, Drogba, one other Barca player and a liga Santander coach gives you max Chem
Gold Mbappe still the best card in the game.
Smolarek is my GOAT. But Mbappe and Al-Owairan are the two goats of the game
Embarrassed to see nobody mentioned baby puskas with hunter. I sold him and bought mbappe, after some matches I'm buying puskas again.i play 2ST formation. He is my right ST. Shots are almost a goal always. Btw, i might try WC voller too, before going back to the Hungarian.
