The Best Striker Builds In EA FC 26 Clubs
When looking at Archetypes, both Finisher and Target can give birth to effective strikers, with the former being focused on mobility and finesse (think of Mbappé) and the latter being hand-made for those looking to build taller players capable of dominating through athleticism and scoring prowess, like Haaland and Zlatan. You can check out the best builds for Finisher and Target below.
The Best Finisher Build
The ideal Archetype for nimble strikers in EA FC 26 Clubs, Finisher shines by giving you access to both First Touch and the meta Low Driven Shot PlayStyle from the get-go. Later on, the archetype’s Fake to Real and 1v1 Master Signature Perks then allow you to get boosts to pretty much all finishing attributes following a well-timed fake shot against the keeper.
To bring the most out of that, focus on adding Finesse Shot, Quick Step, Technical, and Trickster to your arsenal, while stat-wise, Finishing, Dribbling, and Pace must be your priorities early on.
