Recent days in the world FIFA esports world were marked by significant changes that were followed not only by esports soccer fans but also by betting enthusiasts. This is especially true about the “calf dribble” glitch, which spoiled the mood (and caused money loss) of many Polish users of GGBet eSports (https://gg146.bet/pl/esports).
Also, there were fateful changes in the lives of Manchester City and Centurions Team, with their recent roster changes.
Toni Kroos – New Centurious Team Player
Recently, FIFA esports fans faced rather sensational news (or, better to say, rumors) about the potential roster of Centurions Team 2. Of course, Toni Kroos was the main hero of this “show.” If you are a fan of this esports maestro from Germany, you have probably already seen the reactions to this news on social networks.
So, what can Tony bring to the team? First of all, it is his exceptional skill on the field and unique technique, which are 100% undoubtful. At the same time, he can really rock it if he gets all the required updates. In fact, it looks like Centurions has decided to bring together all the top players, including true legends, and create an outstanding ensemble.
If it is so, then who but Toni Kroos can perfectly fit into this company, with all those countless awards that he has? However, you should not be fooled ahead of time. The fact is that there is a high probability of the speculative nature of this leakage. The only sources of this info were Twitter and RunTheIconMarkt.
Also, some fans are somewhat “chilled” by Kroos’ last performance during the match for Los Blancos. That time, he received a devastatingly low rating. So what can you expect from Kroos at the Centurions?
First, some experts predict a rating of 88 for him based on the following attributes:
- Tempo: 71;
- Management: 83;
- Defense: 72;
- Shooting: 82;
- Passage: 92;
- Physicality: 73.
It is important to mention the five-star’s weak foot and, simultaneously, PlayStyles‘ effective passes. Given the current trends in this discipline, his problems with speed may be a problem.
At the same time, improvements can probably fix everything. In any case, the game will show everything, so we are waiting!
Get Rid of “Calf Dribble”
There are probably few esports football fans who haven’t heard about the recent glitch that causes so many troubles. To take it briefly, the point essence of this glitch is in the ability of a player to pick up the ball with hands and throw it into the goal.
When it first appeared in the game, it allowed players to use skills to stick the ball to the player’s calf. Of course, this brought a significant advantage, as the opponent could not take it away in any way. But it did not end there. Soon, players found a way to make the ball stick to the player’s hands.
Of course, EA has already responded to all those requests to fix this problem. First, they decided to block the Trickster+ PlayStyle options from Ultimate Team Player Items. If you noticed, now you can use only Trickster instead. EA also stated that they plan to add Trickster+ back to the relevant items for players in a future update.
Unfortunately, this bug still presents (theoretically) in the game. At the same time, EA disabled the mechanics that could lead to this. So, at the moment, it is nothing more than a temporary solution, and it is definitely not perfect. In addition to not solving the problem, it blocks the opportunity for players to imitate their counterparts in real life.
In this case, the Trickster+ was assigned to players who are known for their technique and display skills on the pitch, including Neymar and Ronaldinho. The problem worsened when players experienced serious financial losses, especially during the last FUT Champions. Whether EA will compensate for these losses is still an open question.
Tekkz Joins’ New Move
Undoubtedly, Donovan “Tekkz” Hunt is one of the most experienced FIFA players from the UK. He can boast an excellent technique and high respect among esports soccer fans. Recently, he announced his intentions to join Manchester City.
For him, it was a big step since it made him the latest EA FC eSports player to join this team. Is it somehow related to Fnatic’s rejection of participating in any EA FC esports events? It is still unknown.
However, it is known for sure that the real reason for this may be a reassessment by eager organizations of their participation in the game after the announcement of the EA Sports FC Pro eSports cycle. What else can these changes bring for esports soccer fans? Their context involves EA splitting off from FIFA to create its own EA FC video game brand.
Among the facts, it is known that together with Tekkz, Matias “Matias” Bonanno also joined City Esports. It is interesting that about 2 months ago, Manchester City released their 2 FIFA players in Great Britain, Shells and Ryan Pessoa.
According to Tekkz’s posts, he is full of energy and enthusiasm to show what he is made of and hopes for fruitful cooperation with Matias within the ePremier League. Experts also agree that their playing styles complement each other.
However, what is the main purpose of Tekkz? After all, this is participation and victory in the world championship, to which he constantly goes.
