Frenkie de Jong, Vieira, and Pascal Gross upgraded cards for EA FC 25 Evolutions

While the Team of the Season this time has been a mixed bag, there have been a couple of really noteworthy Evolutions during the promo in EA FC 25. Built Different is one of those standouts, and the reason is that there are many good cards eligible, with the maximum overall requirement being 92.

The Evolutions provide good upgrades across the board, and most cards will end up with identical stats. Still, there are a few that are better, beyond just stats, and we've listed them below.

Best Players For EA FC 25 Built Different Evolution

The five best picks in EA FC 25 for Built Different Evolutions are:

  • Frenkie de Jong (Winter Wildcards, 99 Passing)
  • Patrick Vieira (Thunderstruck)
  • Pascal Groß (Grassroot Greats)
  • Gavi (Winter Wildcards)
  • Homare Sawa (Winter Wildcards, Incisive Pass)

This is one of those Evolutions where there are many top candidates. Most cards will end up having all their stats at 90 and defending being 94. That means anybody who both hits that mark and you like how they control will be worth a shot.

It then comes down to the right combo of PlayStyles+. Tiki Taka, Incisive Pass, Pinged Pass, and Intercept are the most important ones for midfielders.

De Jong already has Incisive Pass and Tiki Taka, and with Pinged Pass added, he becomes arguably one of the most complete midfielders in the game. The Dutchman also stands out because he has 99 passing and looks, at least on paper, much better than most.

One other card that has a similar level of distribution and can dictate the tempo lying deep is Pascal Groß. He has Intercept+, which means balls won't often get past him. Even if it does, the 5'11" German will catch up with a tall, Lengthy, strides if you slap Anchor Chemistry on him.

But the former Brighton legend is not the tallest or the meanest player in our top picks. That'd be Patrick Vieira, an absolute goliath to have in your midfield.

If you want someone with a commanding presence in the midfield, one that doesn't get mugged around by the constant dancing and flirting of forwards, Vieira should be your pick. A beast like that can be paired with someone nimble and responsive like Sawa for a perfectly balanced midfield duo.

Of course, for an Evolution as good as this, there are more than just five potential candidates. The above five were the ones we felt were truly different among the sea of similar 90, 90, 91, 94, 90!

Is Build Different Evolution Worth Doing In EA FC 25?

Yes, Built Different Evolution is worth doing in EA FC 25. It does cost 125,000 Coins, but that's nothing compared to the upgrades you're getting.

Even then, we don't suggest jumping in right now. Some of the top picks we listed were eligible and frontrunners for Evolutions that launched only days ago, and now this one offers better upgrades for most.

Cards that were cheap before, like Pascal GroB, are now extinct. So, if there are good cards that have very good potential for Evolutions, wait for the last few days before the Evolution expires. That's the general suggestion for all upgrades like these.

Regardless of when you begin, toss one of your cards as Built Different is not one worth missing in EA FC 25.
