Today we are brought into an alternate reality that explores what if this legendary goalkeeper played as a striker and in that vein we have Chelsea and Arsenal Icon Petr Čech with his ST Shapeshifters Icon SBC available in FIFA Ultimate Team now!
The Czech Republic legend’s SBC is a little expensive, coming in at a price of 99.8K coins and needs 5 segments to unlock the card.
He has a lot of good stats and characteristics such as:
- 94 Acceleration and 91 Sprint Speed with the Lengthy AcceleRATE will make him incredibly fast over long sprints
- 97 Positioning, 95 Finishing, 99 Shot Power and 93 Long Shots with the Outside Foot Shot Trait and 93 Curve make him a lethal finisher both inside and outside the box
- Having 95 Balance, Reactions, Dribbling and Ball Control with 96 Composure means he will be very responsive on the ball, executing skill moves with precision and quickness
- 94 Jumping and 99 Heading Accuracy with his 6’5 height and the Power Header Trait make him absolutely monstrous in the air
- 95 Stamina means he won’t need to be substituted for 85+ minutes
- 98 Strength and 85 Aggression means that it will be difficult for defenders to push him off the ball physically
- 5-Star Skill Moves with his high dribbling stats and big frame will let him just glide through players
- High/Medium workrates are perfect for a striker
His ideal position in game would be as a target man ST in a 4-2-2-2, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1, 3-5-2 or a 5-4-1 setup. Honestly, any setup where he can receive the ball to his head should allow you to maximise his potential.
He has a similar player profile to that of Team of the Season Erlin Haaland. Their big frames supported by their incredible ability on the ball and near perfect finishing abilities make them the best option for a pure number 9 target man in your team.
The card does have a couple drawbacks such as:
- 84 Agility with his High and Average body type makes him clunky and slow to turn
- 85 Aggression isn’t very high and will allow defenders to win the ball from him in 50/50’s
What Chemistry Style to use for Shapeshifters Icon Petr Čech?
The suggested Chemistry Style for Shapeshifters Icon Petr Čech is: HAWK. The boost in Pace and Shooting brings both of them up as close as it can to 99 while the boost in Physicals especially +8 Aggression compensates for a drawback and brings the best out of him.
Shapeshifters Icon Petr Čech: Complete or Yeet?
With 3 out of the 5 squads being bronze/silver squads he is easy to grind, available for a long time, top tier card that looks very meta and most importantly wears the iconic helmet in game which absolutely makes this SBC worth it. My verdict: Complete!
