Best EA FC 27 cards with Dead Ball
The best EA FC 27 cards with the Dead Ball PlayStyle or Dead Ball+, ranked by meta rating, with live prices.
Scout report
Dead Ball is a Scoring PlayStyle that makes set pieces faster, more curved and more accurate, and it also lengthens the trajectory preview line a little. In FC 27, 508 cards carry it at either tier, plain or PlayStyle+, so you have plenty of options.
Most of those cards play in midfield: CAM has 121, CM 111, LB 54, LM 48 and CDM 47. That makes it easy to put a set-piece taker in the middle of the pitch. At the top of the meta ranking sit Lionel Messi 90 RW, Diego Armando Maradona 95 CAM and Zico 91 CAM. Pick a CAM or CM if you want one taker who also drives your attack.
Worth building around if you score or create from free kicks and corners; a CAM like Zico or Maradona suits that job best.
