Just played 2 friendly matches with your team bro. 1st match I won 7-1 and 4-0 in the 2nd match. Rakitic was no where to be seen in both games. Other than 1 Driven Shot activation (saved by keeper) in the 1st game, he did nothing else. I did try playing with 2 OMF in my team before, and I find out that it is not effective. One will perform in one game, and the other won't, vice versa. I would suggest playing 4-4-2, with diamond midfield, Santi on the right (higher speed and Technician SS) and Lavezzi on the left.

These are special cards, bro. Rarer than the common ones that we have, 4* and 5*. They tend to have higher stats and cost compared to the 4* or 5* versions. There will be events from time to time to promote the cards. So far we have, NDG/NDS (National Dream Greats/Stars), CLS (Champions League Stars), BDR (Bandiera) and EUS (European Stars). These rare cards tend to have higher cost/stats compared to their normal counterpart. A 5* Ronaldo is cost 34, whereas the CLS and NDS version is a cost 38. Same goes to Messi, but he only has the CLS version, there's no Argentina cards yet. You can scroll through all these cards in the prize draw section, on the top (view rare cards).

It's the NDG/NDS Portugal and Spain season now. So you'll have a chance to draw these rare cards (you won't have the chance once the event is over). If you'd had played 2 weeks earlier, you might have the chance to nab some CLS players.

First game, I manage to scrap a win on the 90th minute (better than yesterday's formation), 3-2. I agree with Madiniho bro, your De Jong is very annoying, lol. By far the most hard tackling DMF I've seen in the game. Your Santi is a beast in the wing. As for Rakitic, nowhere to be seen again. Hmmm... He did not help in defense either. Bro, ever consider playing diamond midfield formation, with De Jong in DMF and Rakitic in OMF?

A much better 2nd game, drew 2-2. Rakitic managed to get in a few tackles and won. Scored 1 from a freekick using his drvien shot. Your Rakitic is similar to my Gerrard, higher offensive stats and can only contribute when taking dead pieces. On and off will get a few tackles in, but quite ineffective in DMF. That is why I can't wait to ultra my Xabi Alonso so he can replace Stevie-G.

Oh. That will be NDG Koke. Good catch! NDS Koke will be cost 31, much rarer than NDG. I suggest play him in OMF, that's where he will trigger his skill more. I can't believe your luck. Seems to be getting good players. I remembered when I was lvl 17, my team only had 1 or 2 4* player.

Btw, here bro. A website that might help you. It's made by the EDMW guys, and I find it very very helpful. You can check the beginner's guide for some tips.

Oh. You gonna play 4-5-1 once Kroos is ultra with Rooney up front? Hmm... Not sure how Kroos will perform as a DMF. Let's hope you get a solid DMF soon.

Btw, Fr@nz, I noticed you have EUS Matuidi and 5* Bale in your team. Aren't you gonna ultra them? I guess Matuidi will do a better job than Kroos/Rakitic in DMF whereas Bale will do better than Lavezzi.

20,000 CP?! Serious? That's heavy, bro.
Wonder what event tomorrow. My guess is some slow/easy event, my guess is World Tour.

TC will be great too, but probably will do the 80k CP draw first before deciding who to up level. Premium draw many gold? I only see red. 2 draw and I stopped...

Not really a big fan of 2 OMF. One tend to perform, the other MIA.

How bout 4-5-1?

Bro, not recommend you to Ultra anyone yet, you still have plenty of chances to get better players. If you manage to get anyone above cost 28, then different story.

Players which are less than cost 20 come and go pretty quickly, so I don't recommend you spend too much time on them. Keep your Head Coach badge and 5* Coach Badge, they are super valuable and hard to come by.

Yeap, I agree. Rooney is still one of my crucial player in my team. I have him since one of the old Cat Raffle and pretty much still irreplaceable. Wingers with crossing ability might suit him much better because of his volley SS.

I drew my 1st match and draw the 2nd match. Both team around the same level as me. Sigh... Looks like it's another mid table/relegation battle for me this week as there are a few monster team in my league...

Currently dangling dangerously in between position 890 to 910. Hope to get a 5* player draw. Pray for a Ibra, Robben, Ronaldo, Messi, Bale, Lahm or Neymar for me.

Really? Another 5*. Your luck.
Heh. Spain squad sounds good, better than Portugal's squad. Your defence will be good with zabaleta and Busquet once they make into the team.

Training camp is back, guys. At least Konami has the courtesy to drop the NDG/NDS draw prize to 50k CP. I'll use the 2 draws first, then decide what to do. Happy training, guys!

For those who are cheonging TC, I recommend you to have a look in this thread. List of Super Elites who are contributing to TC. Look out for players who have weaken their team so you can farm those CP much easier.

If you happened to see me, do not challenge when Suarez is my captain.

Wow. Jelly. I'm still waiting for my 1st Arsenal player.

Grind for 100k CP, if possible. Can get 2 NDG/NDS draw.

A bug that Konami has not fixed... Only happens in Rookies match.

Got my NDS from the 50K CP draw in my 1st draw, 2nd draw NDG which is not worth mentioning. Not sure how to use my formation now. 4-3-3 or 3-4-3?



Again, mix feeling. Would've hope for Iniesta or Silva, but glad I hit NDS. Heard there are some who got both NDG.

Hm... Maybe you're right, I'll try going for 4-3-3. But I do not have any good fullbacks. I'll play Suarez in LMF, but he's orange in that position. Driven shot might be more effective.

Good luck, bro. NDS Ronaldo is waiting for you.
