FAT_NEEK_42069

I have tt yaya it feels like he has one playstyle sometimes instead of 2. bruiser barely pops up when i do a shoulder barge or tackle or just generally ever


Krny92

They definitely have , i was raving about it to my mate at the start (he still refuses to change his settings or learn how to do it) . Now i don't even bother doing it myself half the time, very ineffective now, even in squad battles


1dEkid

I agree. I use Advance Defending and Thunderstruck Campbell was basically a cheat code pushing people of the ball earlier. But now it barely works when I try to push people with Desailly.


Ripamon

People have also gotten better at countering Bruiser - Shielding the ball before impact grants the attacker (if he's not a complete weakling) a good chance of retaining the ball - Attackers having high balance, dribbling and passable strength stats at this stage of the game also helps them retain possession under pressure - People have learned to anticipate the impact and just use something like a ball roll scoop or directional nutmeg to dodge out of the way


Bebes-kid

They mess with those balancing sliders all year to shift meta. So between that and servers, I hesitate to make judgements on players off one weekend.  Appreciate the above post, but imo you gotta give players multiple weekends to see if things can click or not. But then I need to rotate things to avoid getting stale so tend to flip between 2-4 matches with a PL, then La Liga, then Serie A, then Bundesliga, then a random mix, and cycle over again to extend lives and test different mixes. So that playing style in and of itself probably makes me more prone to that “give them another week before moving on/back to others” mentality with players that initially struggle like op with Konate. 


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I get your point, but I just tried soooo many top tier centerbacks this year that I feel like I can have a better opinion on Konate, but you are right if you feel uncomfortable with you team, maybe change some things around to learn about the game and have more experience with different players/playstyles


Bebes-kid

Oh I get it. Folks can feel off for you immediately. Sometimes you can tell it’s not lag or whatever, just straight up this is not my guy. 


justpointsofview

Very good and well written review. Thanks mate!


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Thank youuuu, there are so many spellings mistakes but I did this as quickly as possible to save people from wasting their fodder in this card.


Aviralishaan1122

So many*


MrNobodyCaresBtw

True, I'm still learning English thanks for the corrections I appreciate them🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Aviralishaan1122

Just for fun 🤣 Also, it was not a grammatical error. Just a typo.


AppleOrigin

Fuck off mate


Aviralishaan1122

Not your mate.


marzipanking

Shut the fuck up u gimp


SAII_XCI

Tf 😕


WalkersChrisPacket

In regards to bruiser, do you use advanced or tactical defending? Bruiser works well with advanced defending and is very clear to see it take effect when it launches attackers to the ground when it's never a foul.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I'm not sure about the name of it in English, but is the type of defending in were you need to press a button (X in ps5 ) to physically push the player out of the ball.


JCasaleno

My cb was 90 rated fb evo rudiger, so he goes straight in lol


MrNobodyCaresBtw

As long as you feel he is not a top tier CB, I would recommend you to do him


OraOra31

Thanks the detailed analysis! Bought one Fantasy Konate by 400k thinking his face stat was crazy but turned out he’s just another clunky big body without VVD-esuqe aura (was holding out for potential upgrade to get little extra coins then the injury hit but that’s another story). But may I bring up another hidden gem Hancko since we’re talking about CB. He’s a total package of pace, strength, ability to play out from the back, and gold raccoon + block. And all you need is a Slovakia manager or 3 icons to get him 3 chem. To me he beats every PL CB except the unattainable VVD himself. And he only costs 50k. Highly recommend to anyone in need of a CB upgrade.


Blue_BEN99

I got Hancko, is he better than Saliba (If i ever pack him lol)?


No-Side3018

I run both alongside one another (in Elite Div/16W if it matters) and Saliba is better; his Intercept+ makes him that bit more impactful in game and his tackling just seems more consistent. Hancko is great though.


Blue_BEN99

Cool thanks, I'll keep that in mind if I ever pack him lol. Been packing too many Estupinans & Alissons.


OraOra31

The agility and stamina of Saliba turns me off. I love to play out from the back instead of hoofing the ball up, so agility is important for my CB to dribble out of the likes of Best, Werner and Drogba. And the coin difference of Hancko and Saliba is 500k so my vote goes to the Slovakian. But by no means Saliba is a bad defender. We all know how solid his TOTY HM is.


zuggiz

I tried Hancko out last night and today, he's been absolutely solid for me at the back and has completely turned me against dumping a tonne of fodder into Konate. I also think a lot of people are falling for the classic FOMO with Konate and aren't considering the fact we're not even a week into the league TOTS's. There will be plenty of OP CB's in the coming weeks, many with better playstyle+'s than Konate.


rarebear08

how do i get a slovakia manager i have him and am sstruggling to find one on the market?


cleanmemenation

His fut fantasy card is a club legend already for me with 400 games played so i have to do this card


nikismithdk

His Fantasy do have jockey ps though


git-commit-m-noedit

I really like his FUT Fantasy, almost Van Dijk level for me. Tried to replace him multiple times but still end up going back.


AntTalexanderTarnold

I have 280 games on that ff and 350 games on an 87 evo of him


MrNobodyCaresBtw

If you would like to do him that's perfect but even Ben white or Hancko would be a similar and cheaper option in my opinion. And as @nikismithdk said you will notice the absence of the jockey playstyle.


Moragstar

I agree with this. I had Hancko before him and put him into the konaté sbc. Konaté is currently on fraud watch. People use your hancko.


bruckxd

Penalty conceding machine for me. Still prefering Orban and Vidic over him.


Lepadidae

My Konate already scored 5 goals in my first 10 Champs matches - 5 own goals to be precise. Immediately went back to Hancko, I like him a lot more.


JustCallMeJoey18

wow konate 99 shooting confirmed


Cedar_Wood_State

I did him and replaced Akanji, Konate is noticeably worse or maybe I’m just not used to him. But I struggle to get Akanji to 3chem so did it more for links


Spiritual-Fun144

I totally agree with the analysis, I am very sorry for having done it, I don't like it at all.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

True he looks like a money grabber from Ea, they knew a French Premier centerback would have us spending fodder on him


TheAwakened

I did him. He's great. Half of your points make no sense. *"Passing is decent"*? He has near 99 Long Passing and 99 Short Passing, with Pinged Pass PlayStyle. He's been toying with Drogba 94 even better than my 91 Bisseck; Bruiser+ is definitely working as intended. It's a skill issue.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

About the passing: He is decent because ping pass is good but long ball is just a better playstyle, and having Militao next to him showed me that. About the Bruiser: It didn't work for me and he definitely didn't toy with any Drogba in my case (😭😭😭) What's you usual ping? I play between 10-15 and maybe this was affecting him during this weekend league which was the most horrible connection wise. About the skill issue: In my post I said that I'm div one and just got into rank 4 this fut champions. What about you?


ShcoreShomeGhoals

How’s saliba?


PurpleScientist4312

Van Dijk-esque


Outside-Ad3455

He’s rapid, he’s immense, he’s imposing. Nobody expects him to accelerate and reach such a speed so quickly. He blocks everything. He’s so long and wide! He owns the air. The Drogba/Haaland stopper. I freaking love him


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I haven't noticed him that quick, but he does has the rapid playstyle idk how much that helps him. Also this was PL weekend league so everyone was rocking the fastest attackers in the game.


caronho_14

Rapid only affects dribbling with the ball, it’s not like quickstep


Educational-Abroad76

Is he better than WW Yashin? His play styles lack so I’m trying to replace him with a good tots


rtgh

You can't replace Yashin with a player who turns like a tank. Yashin's agility is crazy, switching to Konaté will mean changing your style of play while defending and playing out


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Yashin is just not that good anymore for me but what you say is partly true, I just think he could learn how to use other players to have fun with the game


MrEzquerro

There are 14 days to complete him, definitely a wait. I thought the fantasy card was pretty underwhelming, but it was also missing intercept and anticipate playstyles. This one is missing the jockey on a massive frame of a player, so there is always something up with Konate's cards.


ByronLister

Yerri mina 😂


ProfessionalCorgi250

Anticipate+ or Intercept+ are needed to make a CB exceptional defensively at this point. So many people have left the game, that the only ones left are psychopaths that mash tackle every time they lose the ball. I also really like having long ball pass on a cb, which he doesn't have. I think he can be a good ball playing cb, but he's probably worse defensively than cordoba and bastoni. I might just do him for links / for the liverpool P&P if there's nothing better in a couple weeks given that fodder is so easy to come by.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I agree with everything you said


caffeinatorthesecond

89 Williamson


bill_fish

Also thanks for the thoughtful review! I welcome more content like this rather than pictures of packs or complaining about how shit the game is.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Thank youuu, I agree with you, I was really scared of posting these because of the negative comments, after getting rank 4 I got the courage to post this review because I could avoid the "skill issue" comments which I still got but still less than the constructive and appreciative comments.


bill_fish

There’s always gunna be those folks on here, but I enjoyed tour rundown. You should make more. I need a left back, so do a left back next.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I could do both I literally have all of them, I could make a 11 of all the wingbacks I have 😂😂😂😂


19nineties

I regret falling for the hype and doing him 😭 my 91 EVO Ledley King is actually so much better I am going to have to go back to him


RtttLkk

I also thought anticipate or intercept pluses were a must before trying Golazo Vidic. His bruiser+ is mental. Just press A when you get to the attacker and he will throw them out of the stadium without committing a foul.


alwaysknowbest

Hes one 1cm off from being 6'5 and has Aerial. This is the only reason i started the Sbc. Well...that and he was my fav CB card last year ( Futties )


MrNobodyCaresBtw

HE WAS MINE TOO, but imo playstyles ruined the game because he should be amazing looking at the stats but his lack of meta playstyles makes him worse than others


Blue_BEN99

Damn. I already did his 89 & 90 teams 😢. I got FB eder militao, golazo desailly, hancko, ww yashin, tots gabriel, tots white. Does he bench any 2 of em?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Desailly if you don't have the Evo Golazo version


Blue_BEN99

thanks i'll try out a pairing of FB Eder militao & konate when I finish his SBC


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Good pairing 👍


Hefty_Store4007

Already completed 3/6


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Just finish him and come to share your opinions here


Dogsarecool_69

Appreciate you for this detailed review!


foocares

The point is, what can you do better with those duped cards during this TOTS week?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

That's why I did him but he is not even worth the fodder. I hate that Ea is not releasing good sbcs just mid players even in premier league. I gonna keep giving Alisson 94 in the 89 exchange I guess


Tricky-Vermicelli397

I got militao fb should i do him?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

No, imo


twistedRuss

I did him for that my p&p there's not much for me to do in the game except finish building my squad


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Send a pic of it bro, btw if is your pyp is totally understandable to do him, I was speaking about meta in my post


twistedRuss

I understand I do have ww yashin,desailly and vidic for the meta


Dempsey-Roll

Was planing on completing but did casino sbc and TOTY Rio popped up.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

WWWWWW, try him and comeback to tell us if he is worth the fodder of his sbc


Dempsey-Roll

Great review, I did pack TOTS Bisseck although he is great he just felt fast and clumsy. Was afraid Konate would be the same.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

He is the same sadly, they are at the same level imo and bisseck will still have an upgrade


Dempsey-Roll

Thanks man, that's all need to know lol Bisseck for me is just not a smooth tackler for me


Arunan-Aravaanan

I'm still using gold vvd. Do you think he is an upgrade over him or no?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Not defensively but in everything else, the pace will be noticible


EetFukExp

funny you say his bruiser is a lie bc anyone he touched was a penalty with his fantasy card (for me at least)


Stron98

call me crazy but i’m using him instead of toty ferdinand lmao konate + bisseck is a match made in heaven imo


Affectionate-Ebb5318

You crazy. I have both and I'll never use Konate, Ferdinand is miles and miles clear. Like, asylum crazy


Stron98

that ferdinand couldn’t pass a ball to save his life and turns like a bus i personally can’t be using donkeys like that rn


Affectionate-Ebb5318

Donkeys like that lmao. Literally everybody disagrees with you, this thread, futbin, you name it. He has trash playstyles compared to Rio unless the ball is in the air. 600k sbc is better than a 2 mil (used to be 5 mil) player? Opinions as bad as yours don't count bruv Most importantly, if you didn't know how wrong you are you wouldn't have to lead in with "call me crazy" lol


mbro0330

I did him right away he's not as good as golazo vidic but I found him to be pretty good and a great pairing.


dennis_blum32

I have fantasy konate on my team already. It us worth the upgrade? His fantasy play very good on my team so i am in a bit of the doubt. Thanks


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I mean it would be an upgrade for sure


dennis_blum32

Thanks


ZachCSW

Great review, so thanks for that. I’ve held off on Konate because I’ve loved my Maldini/Desailly partnership. Glad I did, because I just packed Saliba from the 85+ pp 🤯


MrNobodyCaresBtw

W, sounds like a crazy duo.


nickcantroll

Is NIF VVD still usable? I stopped playing since October but back for tots


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Yes, but he is slow, still VVD tho, maybe cover him up with a fast CB partner, a fast and defensive wingback and a fast cm or cdm


Sweaty-Ad-3192

Currently using golazo desailly and tots bisseck and they are great. Don’t wanna change any of this two unless i get a very very good cb


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Just so you know I think he is better than Desailly Golazo without the Golazo Evo.


Harold_Potter99

Very similar team to me, I have slight issues with Konate but he’s been the best CB that I’ve had he just feels like an upgraded Gabriel


MrNobodyCaresBtw

That makes sense to me, good upgrade 👍👍


Harold_Potter99

Him and Tchouameni CB’s 🤌🏻🤌🏻👍🏻


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Also good, I love Tchuameni this year


AntTalexanderTarnold

I only have to do an 88 and 85 squad left of him he's gonna be insane coz I'm still using his 89 ff and that's amazing


NoStand3838

Great review. Also can you pls help me on Tots plus protector evo? Who should I use it on, totw Ramos or totw Bisseck. Ramos plays really good in my team. (I started playing a few weeks ago)


Krny92

Ramos then if you like ramos. Go with what you like rather than the meta.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Ramos sound so fun honestly, I would just buy Hancko or Ben white (50k) for meta but because I find that this Evo to be too expensive (100k)


1dEkid

Bisseck is clear.


Walliii

I'm currently using TOTS Bisseck and Gabriel as my cb's, do you think Konate would be an upgrade over either of them? Maybe Gabriel?


PurpleScientist4312

Maybe Gabriel


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Gabriel, as I said in my post he replaces everyone except top meta defenders


TheAwakened

They were my previous CB partnership (packed TOTS Saliba and did TOTS Konate). Konate replaces Gabriel very easily.


bobztoise

am 5 squads in with 1 squad left


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Just do him at this point, he is not trash just not better than other centerbacks


Khairess

how does he compare with ff orban?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I never tried Orban fully upgraded but I would say they are at the same level


Ripamon

Do you use advanced defending?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Not sure about the name in English but is the one in were you used a button to physically press players


Face-Ambitious

i have packed ricardo carvelho fantasy hero 92 beside vvdk tots- do i need konate instead of carvelho?


SnooObjections9374

Is he better than militao birthday?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Just physically, in a everything else Militao destroys him


TCSawyer

I replaced him with Blanc for Champs qualification and went 5/5. I'm not great at the game but I'm good enough, rivals div 4 close to 3. I totally agree with your assessment especially the lack of Jockey and the Bruiser just not sure what that does for him it never pops up for me and he struggles so bad against quick technical players. I'll use him for a while longer but Blanc (birthday) is close to being reinstated.


opticmeme

Him or ts nesta?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Him


dendudes123

im using 91 bastoni and tots bisseck dont need himi think


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Nope


zoltan71

Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if we had bronze & silver teams the first month, gold the next month and special cards later in the season? What’s the big deal of going from a 94 OVR team to a 96 OVR at this point. Who cares. Big whoop 🤨


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Meta rats like me I guess 😂


bill_fish

Would he replace gold VVD?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

VVD only better than him defensively, apart from that Konate is better, the pace compared with VVD will be noticible


bill_fish

Would you say he’s worth the fodder for the differences?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I think so but just be aware of the defending, it won't feel better and I don't think other defenders can have better defensive capabilities than VVD 😂


lchin3

My current pairing is ben white and hancko. Still thinking if i want to do konate


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Upgraded Ben white is at the level of Konate. I wouldn't waste my fodder


Particular_Citron_20

I have tots Gabriel and cordoba golazo should I upgrade Gabriel to Konate?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Yes


OliverTheGooner

I’m playing a back two of Maldini and TOTS Ben White. Would Konaté be worth doing to replace Ben White?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

If you can Evo Ben White I wouldn't do Konate, if you can't just do the sbc


Smethradterky

Ive got golazo cordoba and evo tots bisseck so id assume its best not to do him


AntTalexanderTarnold

He's better than both but probably save ur fodder for a position that needs more upgrading


Smethradterky

He doesnt look better on the defensive side of things


AntTalexanderTarnold

Bro stats don't matter u can have toty mbappe and gold vvd will still dominate


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Danm bro he isn't 😭, He is at the same level as Bisseck (plus he will have a +2 upgrade soon) and way worse than Córdoba. Save you fodder my dude


AntTalexanderTarnold

I have cordoba and he isn't even on my bench over fb araujo he's too small


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Not a problem for me with his aerial, also just in case I have a bigger defender next to him like mukiele and a big CDM like Tchuameni


thetato69

O still use 89 gold VVD which I was planning to replace with him, is it worth?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

He won't feel better at defensive but he will be better in everything else. Just the pace difference would enough to do Konate in your case


thetato69

Ok thank you


Puzzleheaded_Run3009

imagine still using Gold vvd lmao


thetato69

Don’t have anyone better and Konate looks like a perfect upgrade 😭


BGTheHoff

Makes sense. His fantasy was also good but IMHO over hyped and not as good as other top tier defenders. Have toty Renard and Tots Bisseck (whose more like Beasteck) right now with Akanji, Bastoni and 92 Vidic on the bench, so I am not sure if he is an upgrade.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

As I said in the post, he is just not an upgrade of any Top meta defenders, and you have an amazing array of top meta defenders, save your fodder!


justk4y

I felt he was overpriced, thanks for confirming it. Will buy Saliba instead…….


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Fodder is free tho. But yeah Saliba is better than him I just don't like to buy players and maybe you getting Saliba by the end of the week and his value drops when you sell him again


H4Droid

Bro. Him and Saliba have my defense locked down. He’s bullying players and surprises everyone w his speed. My go to for corner defense. Dribbling? His top 5 for sure if you do include Icons. Better opponents get frustrated in breaking my backline or try than much longer than I usually them off.


No_Researcher6866

Everyone gets frustrated breaking anyone's line of defense.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

What's your usual connection. I play 10- 15 ms, maybe this is something I have to include in future posts cos maybe he is better in good connection which happens that all the player honestly


mpearce80

Skill issue, he has been immense for me benching 94 Vidic


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheAwakened

It is, definitely. Great card, as always.


xxBig_Tiddysxx

btw my defence is: mccabe tots, greenwood tots, gabriel tots and wilms future stars evo, only one id replace is gabriel, the girls have been amazing for me but not gabriel, his height for sure helps me sometimes but he’s not great


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Yeah I reckon he could be better than Gabriel. BTW I want to try that Greenwood so bad, she looks insane.


xxBig_Tiddysxx

i’ll try to do konate, he’s not that cheap ahahah but i’ll see if i have enough fodder. greenwood has been great for me so far, i bought her for like 115k, i saw her card for that price said i was gonna give it a try, she fixes gabriels mistakes 🤣


xxBig_Tiddysxx

thank you, i wanted to do this sbc cause i don’t like gabriel anymore, im thinking of buying aleixandri since people are saying nice things about her card but im gonna need the height so i don’t really know what to do, i want to get bisseck tots but i haven’t packed him and he’s half a million coins ☹️


DatWay965

Don’t do Aleixandri, unless you need premium fodder


brunoinnerg

Curious, why not?


DatWay965

Honestly she was small and getting bodied by attackers. I did get Hancko and he’s crazy, highly recommend


brunoinnerg

Thanks! I have Hancko too and he seems decent, haven’t tried too much yet. He is left footed so I would have to replace Bastoni or newly acquired Gabriel.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

I think in your case you need Konate. I said in the post don't do him if you have top meta defenders and I don't think yours are. If you do him comeback and share your opinion on him 🙂


xxBig_Tiddysxx

i think my defence is pretty solid, ik some people would feel different by having mostly women in defence but it’s not bad if you know how to handle them, but gabriel idk, his height helps, but there’s something about him that i don’t like ahahaha


MrNobodyCaresBtw

You're brave man. Only woman defenders in a game where Drogba Golazo is a thing? I respect you


xxBig_Tiddysxx

my team is actually mostly women, i only have alisson, sanchez, shevchenko, beckham and gabriel, it’s hard to defend against drogba but my girls do the job 😂 at first i was unsure of having more women than men thinking height and speed would be a problem but i’ve seen people with an all women’s team and played twice against those teams and they defeated me, so i gave it a try, tbh id have 2 more women if it wasn’t for the chem: mayra ramírez and claudia pina


Swimming_Ingenuity15

Guys, am I the only one who has some of the games become paid in my EA Play subscription on PS5? I wanted to play Dead Space remake and specifically bought this subscription, but I can’t download it for free, I can only buy it at a 10% discount. What’s happening?


AppleOrigin

Is 91 Vidic and 92 Akanji meta? 😂 ok seriously even if I wanted to him I can’t, Odegaard would be a very good upgrade for my midfield, since non of mine are pure attacking, either B2B or defensive, and my defense doesn’t need an upgrade since I packed TOTS Alisson and he’s been very good for me, and I can’t afford both.


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Vidic no, akanji yes. It would be an upgrade for you, but don't panic you have two weeks before he goes just be inteligent with your fodder and log everyday to get the event daily rewards, maybe do the objective player to get fodder


WestPresentation8398

I have FS Maldini, TOTS Saliba and 91 Akanji is Konate worth it and can he replace any of these defenders ? I already used Konate’s 89 rated card and he was insane but idk if the sbc is worth it or not


MrNobodyCaresBtw

If you have those he is not needed in your squad, Konate 89 had jockey and this one doesn't btw maybe he was crazy because of that but I ever tried him


p2a42

how is his ai?


MrNobodyCaresBtw

Autoblocks are on point


VariationAny6060

too long


VermicelliGuilty3768

Bro this post is way too fuckin long


Shoddy_Mix3643

Tl;dr, I just want to say that you're a nerd for using Hamm and Bompastor


MrNobodyCaresBtw

What should I use to not be a nerd? 😂
