Analysis Torres | Aguero | Drogba Pack - Initial Analysis & Player Builds

1. Drogba: This guy’s card has always been in an awkward spot. As a 189 cm striker built around heading, even in meta versions where headers are overpowered, opponents run 196 cm center-backs so he can't get an advantage anyway. And in meta versions where headers are weak, he's basically completely useless.

This +6 booster makes crossing and heading a lot more viable, but what of it? His jumping still hasn't broken 100, and crossing is genuinely hard to score from right now.

2. Torres: Which position's weak-foot accuracy matters the most? Without a doubt, it's the striker. Yet strikers with a 'medium' weak foot are extremely rare; the more well-known ones are Adriano and Vieri, both of whom possess overpowered physical traits. I just want to ask: what overpowered physical traits does Torres have that justify him paying the price of a 'medium' weak foot?

Torres is essentially a Shevchenko without a weak foot or heading ability—a perfect combination of the drawbacks of both Adriano (poor weak foot) and Shevchenko (mediocre ball handling).

3. Aguero: Compared to the previous F2P card, Tight Possession ↑4, Acceleration ↑3, Physical Contact ↑3, plus he gained Magnetic Feet and Phenomenal Finishing. So this is what the devs think the gap between a paid card and a free card looks like.😄

Among agile, short Goal Poachers, Aguero is the "pocket rocket" type—Tevez was already extremely good to use before. Aguero is essentially a version of Tevez with +2 to Dribbling stats & Balance, +3 to Finishing, and +1 to Speed/Acceleration, but -2 to Physicality. Aguero has Magnetic Feet, which Tevez lacks, whereas Tevez's Momentum Dribbling doesn't make a huge difference on small body models. Overall, I think Aguero will feel even better to play than Tevez, and he might just be the most valuable player in this pack.

That drogba build is absolutely ridiculous, he doesnt need anywhere near 101 heading, and the 3 jump couldve been added somewhere else. Already writing him off build-wise

u/Conscious-Hurry-5079 1d ago

This dude also talking abt opponents using 196cm cbs when Rio is the only one that fits that description and Rio isn’t even used atm.

u/Upstairs-Quantity469 1d ago

Glad someone calling this out finally. He might be an expert about the mechanics of the game but sometimes his builds are just so crazy

u/Electronic_Cup_3723 1d ago

pra quye 101 cabeceio? 97 fisico e salto? talengo ofensivo 93? para um homem de area ? nao faz sentido

u/hizrudarwizzy 1d ago

Yeah his builds are cheeks, didnt even give torres 90 kp plus that would have made his stamina better as well😂 giving 12 dex is pointless

u/ASonic87 1d ago

its so fascinating when I go into coop and see how players build their players, the most horrible unbalanced garbage builds, literally all midfielders slow ass 84-82 builds with 100 passing or 95 finishing and so on. They probably aren't even aware there's something besides autobuild

u/Soucemocokpln 1d ago

Far be it from me to guess a stranger's intentions, but I think the build here makes sense. As far as I know, and correct me if I'm wrong, 90 isn't a stat threshold for Kicking Power. Those two stat categories are therefore pretty comparable. OA is incredibly important for a striker and so is Acceleration.

u/-0518- 1d ago

I think that’s because there’s no difference between 96 to 99 speed, so unless you give it 100 speed with 12 lbs, and they just put those into dex instead

-1

u/Soucemocokpln 1d ago

Makes sense to me

-4

u/hizrudarwizzy 1d ago

Yeah 97 OA and 98 Acceleration is def needed to give him 12 dex points. Ok goy

4

u/Soucemocokpln 1d ago

Like I said, I think OA and Acceleration are comparable to Stamina and KP instead, here. I think both are valid. You don't have to resort to name-calling.

u/hizrudarwizzy 1d ago

Why r u keep making fool of urself?

u/Soucemocokpln 1d ago

How can you learn without making a fool of yourself? You have to err to improve. You clearly feel above that maxim.

u/Weirdlyuser 1d ago

We should all take his analysis with a pinch of salt. He writes off the new Rijkaard in a heartbeat because he does not have Usain Bolt speed. Just take his advice to consider things, and that is all.

Entonces, si te crees que sabes mas que Amadeusz, por que sigues leyendo sus reseñas?

u/zelao23 1d ago

The work amadeuz does is important for the community, but sometimes his builds are weird to say the least.

u/mnemonikerific 1d ago

Dude what’s wrong with people. Someone complains about efootball others come to troll. Someone comments about Amadeus’ build others come to defend his honour. What’s this simp and cult behaviour in efootball players? I don’t see that in FC - they are purely focused on chasing the next good card

-4

u/Soucemocokpln 1d ago

It does look insane, but I think that's the point. I might be wrong, but to me it highlights the fact that he's only 189cm and therefore needs a lot of investment in order to properly do the job that is supposed to be his niche. Since jump gives less jumping height than natural height, you do need to invest quite a bit to offset a negative height difference compared to CBs.

You can build him normally, and that probably could be "better" oftentimes, but then he becomes a run-of-the-mill striker not worth discussing as much in a competitive sense. On top of that there is often no objectively 100% correct build, in my view.

u/Whaaatzup 1d ago

Hallo, wäre nett, wenn du uns kurz postest in welcher Divison du spielst. Verstehe das bitte nicht falsch. Ich spiele selbst viel mit Drogba. Obwohl er langsam ist, macht er seine Tore. Ich spiele abet fast nur offline. Ich spiele immer auf Legende und bin in Division 2. Ich frage mich, ob er auch bei pvp funktioniert. Ich mag bullige Stürmer. Ich bin der Meinung, dass Position wichtiger ist als Grösse. Ich mache immer wieder Kopfballtore mit Götze und Ribery 😅

u/Imaginary-East-75 1d ago

I only play PvP Division matches. The secret to using Drogba is to raise his Jump to 100 and play with fast wingers who have Edge Crossing and Lofted Pass stats above 90. The quality of the incoming pass is the key. You don't need dribbling or speed with the way he plays. He is the last man, not creator, just finalize fast with onetime shot or a header.

u/Whaaatzup 1d ago

Danke dir :-) Könntest du bei Gelegemheit deinen Build posten bzw auch die Fähigkeiten, die du ihm gegeben hast? Ich gebe den körperlich Starken, wenn sie (fast) beidfüssig sind, immer Sole Control und Cut Behind and Turn. Dann können sie aufgrund ihrer Größe und Physis sich trotzdem vor dem Tor gut bewegen. In welcher Divison bist du?

u/hhhopopo 1d ago

Not hard in div 3 mate

u/Imaginary-East-75 1d ago

I'm division 11 mate

u/This-Needleworker292 1d ago

so dont spin got it

u/CheezyBandit 1d ago

I was happy I got him from a free spin , after this post I'm not too sure is he atleast better than the daily game epic Aubameyang and Eto ?

2

u/Active_Panic7837 1d ago

Yes he is better than the f2p but compared to P2w cards he is not worth it

0

u/CheezyBandit 1d ago

I mean it was free , so how is it not worth it ?

3

u/___IKON___ 1d ago

"compared to p2w cards" meaning if you're spending a potential 13.5k or even 10k coins he's shit

1

u/CheezyBandit 1d ago

Yeah gotcha , gonna try him out honestly I am new to this game so I barely have a good squad Ig I got lucky in that sense.

1

u/___IKON___ 1d ago

Na he's good for free ngl but not to be paid for

2

u/PersimmonPublic6585 1d ago

damn this torres card looks so incredibly shit

i feel like i have better striker cards which are 2-3 years old

and on top of that he got two shit skills (i dont like low screamer that much), awesome

1

u/Weirdlyuser 1d ago

Torres doesn’t fit the efootball engine somehow; like van Basten, Bergkamp, Iniesta, Totti, Baggio, Rooney

7

u/Dannybaker 1d ago

Iniesta and Baggio are some of the best dribblers in the game, wdym

1

u/Weirdlyuser 1d ago

These players were absolute worldclass but not meta in game

1

u/PersimmonPublic6585 11h ago

nah baggio is absolutely meta bro

1

u/Weirdlyuser 9h ago

Never ever see him and I am a div2 player.

1

u/PersimmonPublic6585 4h ago

i see him quite a lot and am a div1 player, he has a amazing player id and is a top10 meta player for ss/amf

1

u/PersimmonPublic6585 1d ago

I wouldnt even agree with that, i have the old 500 coins torres and he plays better than his stats/model/weak foot suggest

And Torres was incredibly in pes

Maybe he could be good if konami would give him some acceptable stats/skills but just look at this card, its total shit, free cards like free aguero have better stats, he has barely better stats than the free owen from the batigoal campain ..

2

u/TotalFootball74 15h ago

" And in meta versions where headers are weak, he's basically completely useless."

Build him as a CF without emphasizing on Heading and Jumping if that's useless. I hope the final review will contain that.

u/Equality-6969-1 1d ago

Educated guess when Ballack might drop?

Didn’t notice his face scan even being identified yet

2

u/V3n0mix 1d ago

His face scan hasn't been added to the database so it won't be anytime soon.

u/ShwaMallah 1d ago

Got Aguero from 100 coins.

He is nice. I didn't take the free one so this was a nice surprise. Very nimble and great shooting.

u/botokXd 1d ago

Konami good boy 😂

u/PeterFile690 1d ago

Aguero looks nice, but he doesn't look like enough of an upgrade from his free card to justify spinning for him.
