A Brazilian super-team built around Lucio, Marquinhos, Kaká, Ronaldinho, Neymar, Vinícius Jr. and other elite cards gives the squad-building challenge an immediately satisfying premise. The creator works position by position through the market, comparing available Brazilian cards and explaining enough of his choices to make the construction process easy to follow. The eventual discovery that 130 OVR is no longer achievable adds an unexpected complication, turning the original target into an attempt to assemble what he considers the strongest currently possible Brazilian lineup.
The defensive selections are handled with a useful mixture of availability, rating and practicality. Lucio and Marquinhos are straightforward center-back choices, while Alisson is accepted despite the creator arguing that the goalkeeper lacks a card worthy of his reputation. Marcelo is chosen over Roberto Carlos largely because he can later be resold, which introduces an economic consideration beyond simply chasing names and ratings. Carlos Alberto then becomes the most elaborate addition, arriving through a box opening before being ranked, trained and assigned skill points for use at right back.
That box-opening section provides energy but also exposes one of the presentation's weaker habits. The creator openly jokes about manufacturing a reaction for short-form content, which is amusingly self-aware, yet the sequence still spends considerable time cycling through rewards before reaching Carlos Alberto. His comments about these boxes feeling like a "scam" are clearly personal frustration rather than evidence about their actual odds or value. More importantly, the spending discussion later in the video provides a welcome counterbalance when he explains that his own large expenditure is connected to earning money from FC Mobile content and explicitly warns viewers against becoming addicted to spending.
Midfield construction becomes more interesting once the creator abandons his initial setup and switches to a 4-2-3-1 narrow formation. Casemiro is obtained through shards after sacrificing unwanted items, while Ramires joins him as the second defensive midfielder and Kaká occupies the central attacking role. Ronaldinho, Neymar and Vinícius Jr. are then fitted around that core, with the creator changing skill-point selections when he realizes that his instinctive defensive upgrades make little sense for Ronaldinho. These small corrections make the process feel genuinely improvised, although they also underline how little advance planning went into the final formation.
The promised rating creates the biggest structural issue. After assembling the lineup, the creator initially sees 128 OVR, investigates the cause and eventually realizes one of his boosts has expired and his account rating has been downgraded. He concludes that 129 is currently the highest possible Brazilian squad on his account and suggests that a future Pelé card, based on leaks he has seen, might make 130 achievable later. That distinction matters: the challenge does not actually produce the headline milestone, and the possible future card remains speculation rather than something demonstrated within the game.
Testing the squad in head-to-head play gives the build a more satisfying finish than simply ending on the lineup screen. The creator struggles initially with the unfamiliar narrow formation, repeatedly forcing passes and openly acknowledging poor play rather than blaming the squad. Vinícius Jr. eventually breaks through for the opener, and after conceding from a penalty the creator responds quickly through Casemiro before Kaká helps complete a 3-1 win. The match is not an especially rigorous card-by-card test, but it demonstrates that the improvised lineup can function while giving the creator's passing-focused style and frustration with the formation room to shape the gameplay.
Pros
- The squad-building process covers market choices, resale considerations, rankings, training, skill points and formation changes rather than merely displaying expensive cards.
- Elite Brazilian players such as Lucio, Carlos Alberto, Kaká, Ronaldinho, Neymar and Vinícius Jr. create a distinctive and appealing themed lineup.
- The creator openly acknowledges mistakes, unsuitable skill-point choices and difficulty using the unfamiliar formation.
- A complete head-to-head match gives the finished squad a practical gameplay test and ends with a 3-1 victory.
- The warning against excessive in-game spending adds responsible context to the creator's own high level of expenditure.
Cons
- The central 130 OVR objective is never achieved, with the finished Brazilian squad reaching only 129 under the creator's current setup.
- The box-opening sequence runs longer than necessary and contributes little to evaluating the eventual squad beyond producing Carlos Alberto.
- Several roster and skill-point decisions are made impulsively, making the build less systematic than it could have been.
- The single match offers only limited evidence about individual card performance or whether this is definitively the best possible Brazilian lineup.
- Discussion of a future Pelé card and its potential effect on the rating is based on leaks rather than confirmed in-game content.
The Brazilian squad challenge remains entertaining despite missing its headline rating, largely because the creator turns the setback into a practical search for the strongest lineup he can currently assemble. Strong personalities, expensive cards and a successful gameplay test keep the episode moving, though the improvised planning and limited testing prevent it from becoming a definitive squad-building guide.
