Lots of fodder. Just give me Garnacho.

TOTY R9 from that new pick
Fuck me. Is he like 15m coins?
Doesn't compare, but Heung Min Son from a 77+ BPLSBB and EWSLSBW pack.
9.5 right now. If he was tradable I would sell in a instant
Getting into my bigger packs and doing decent today. Son, Palmer and Alisson (have his TOTY)
For what it’s worth dupes suckered me into another go and I got FS Smith. Fodder
It’s also EA making up for not letting me evo Hannibal any further. I’ll post a screenshot of what I should be able to do when I get on my laptop
Decent striker. Shame, because I know you'd have preferred Garnacho
It’s a close one
Game is bugged out so I cant do this
Spider-Wan Flashback SBC
CB as position makes him pretty interesting. My fodder is absolutely rinsed right now though
I have done most of Rio so I am not too hot myself. Skipped the Arsenal love in though so it’s doable.
Got Garnacho from the guaranteed TOTS pack
I would have done Havertz if AWB didn’t come out.
EFL picks are quite nice. Gray looks very nice
Luis Diaz from the Prem TOTS pack. Shocked his price is so high considering Son exists
White from mine
I now have Gabriel, Havertz and him

This is coming to PS+ in 5 days. It might be time.
I'll probably spend more time downloading it than play it but still fancy giving it a look. Life without a proper PES is grim.
I forgot I had the 10 hour trial still so I've started on it today.
Only done some SBCs and Squad Battles thus far. No big pulls as of yet.
Servers are the pits, even in the menus.
I just completed a SB game and won on pens, insta kicked and the game counts as a loss.

Got my first bait.
French
Striker
PSG
Katoto...
Wubben fucking Moy from my SB red two weeks in a row. Can’t even go into the red evo. Fuck me
I got Adeyemi, who's not bad.
Also just got Balotelli out of some random pack. Assume he'll be fodder price but seems to be about 300k right now
So I'll be installing this Tuesday when it comes to PS+ unless I can also get that trial now. I've 3 main questions really.
1. Is this still like previous years, where the PS5 version looks nicer but plays worse?
2. Does any particular YouTuber have a video on Evos/Playstyles that I can use as a catch up?
3. How have the women players affected the meta? I should imagine though they may not be the best to have at CB, they make for great use in wide/forward areas.
For Evos I would suggest just going to FUT.gg, clicking evos and then going into each and seeing who you like. Nep usually has a look at them but I don’t know anyone specific content wise.
What's the best way to grind?
I need coins.
I've been grinding for a couple hours and I've noticed the TOTS rate seems quite low. I'm using the Nep method so it may not quite be the most efficient, but it seems to be.
I thought I'd have seen a few moments cards.
Seen a few people saying the Bundes weight has been lower than prem. I have opened a lot less packs than I did for Prem/Live but I have struggled to get anything from the mens team and only a couple from the womens.
I've gotten 4 Frohms TOTS in about 45 minutes or so.
Today has been a better day. Adeyemi, Tah and Kyle Walker Peters
Got a hearty collection on 84s now through grinding. Managed a TOTS Davis and Pavlovic so far, but I'm really surprised given the prices I'm seeing on FUTBIN that I'm not getting more of the shitters like that.
Dipped my toe into Rivals and I've won all 5 of my games so far but it definitely feels strange. Going to have to get used to the movements and try and fix the camera angle.
Upamecano from the Bundesliga TOTS guarantee. Not bad.
If someone has that play style its mad how they glide
EA done fucked up like they did with TOTY Messi. Everyone getting red Mbappe and Dembele.
EDIT: People are doing Golden Goal in weekend league to try and get to the rewards before they fix it

I just saw on twitter. Wtf.
People seem to think most of the players aren't registering as available for the pick. For example no Marquinhos in anyones pick. This is making it so basically you're getting one of the big star PSG players almost guaranteed.
I've never seen streamers so stressed.
Fixed it at 3 in the morning UK time.
A lot of unhappy people.
It was such a strange experience flipping between all the bigger streamers. Started with NickRTFM who was doing shareplays and saw a large amount of Zaire-Emery, Dembele and Mbappe. He'd already started on his 2nd account so gave away loads of wins as he didn't care for most of this TOTS. He got Zaire-Emery then Mbappe. Switched to his main and the struggle was real. Everything went to shit. Golden goal in WL, people rubber banding after 2-0 down instead of quitting. People passing around the back.
Those reds made Zwe start a speedrun too. Switched over to Nep and Fuji and the same for all. Fuji was 14-2 in his run and his chat were screaming at him to gift the wins but he got all stressed and pissy(proper man baby shit) about it. Got to 16-3 and then went into a game and quit without gifting. Still got Hernandez and Zaire-Emery.
I didn't go back to Nep but I know that Zwe was in game for his 11th win when they patched it out.
I assume there'll now be a tweet saying how that only 0.7% of people got a red Mbappe item.
Nep got done in time and got Dembele and Zaire-Emery.
At that point they should have just left it and let people have at it.
Yeah this is where I always circle back to why they feel the need to "game" the player so much. I understand that if everyone has good odds of getting the top cards each week in this case, your average player loses the will to grind/pay more money for packs, but they've tuned it to the point of insanity.
I tend to buy on odd years. The grind on 17, 19 and I think for me 22? These were all great fun, a mix for me of having to play the game well and manage my club well. I'm no Yev but I could get it done alright.
This is what stops me buying. I haven't bought since '22 and I don't think I can see myself paying again until they fix this need to screw the playerbase over.
I've installed this. After my 'let's see how you do' game, it's put me against Legendary AI. Quite how you get that from a 5-2 win over Sunderland, I'll never know.
Also, after years of getting misty-eyed over EA's presentation, it's a bit shit. Each team has one chant that just gets repeated ad nauseum and the atmosphere is a little flat. I can only hear Blaydon Races so much before getting sick of it.
Speaking of flat, I still can't believe nobody outside the NBA 2K games has commentary sounding right. It feels alright to control but, as a solo lad, it'll rest on whether the AI is interesting to play against.
Well, Legendary is not my level and it still has the feel of the AI playing the same way regardless of the team you're up against. No big long ball hoofs, everyone's tight control with the ball is decent, etc.

Goalkeepers really don't do anything in this game huh.
Same as it ever was
They made them good at one point, to much crying.
Apparently we have a Leverkusen TOTS pack coming.
I'd been using Trapp as a starter keeper while I menu grind the team better. The only things he saves just kind of hit him. Just pinged TOTS Donarumma from a pick though so that's the keeper taken care of.
Been slowly building a hodge podge of TOTS lads to fill the team out as a 'for now' solution. Got Xhaka from a guarantee pack and Bentaleb in a few picks. Got Golovin from one. Standard 91 Putellas is great off the bench too.
I've now got a placeholder everywhere bar the two wing positions. Strangely I've not had a blue winger, nor actually have I got any of the female TOTS yet.
Defending's my bother. Mainly trying to get back and I'm still in PES mode when it comes to that stuff. PES has pressure/contain and standing tackles on the same button.
Defending has always been my downfall.
Tere Abelleira from the FREE TOTS pack.
I bet Raoul gets Valverde.
Those Barcelona women cards look absolute filth no matter which one you(dont) get.
There's a lot of filth on the mens team too, but there's an inevitable glimpse of what you'll actually get on the FUTBIN page:
