The requirements are looser in terms of overall and position. Unfortunately, once again, Silver ICONs have been left out. Newer Evolutions are increasingly restricting them, and the latest batch is especially grindy. They now feel a lot less appealing, but that could change in the future.
While World Tour Silver Stars are gated, the upgrades are still amazing, and there is plenty of potential with an 88 overall max cap.
Best Player For In All Areas Evolution in FC 26
The seven most standout FC 26 players for In Areas Evolution are:
- Jonathan Tah (Winter Wildcards)
- Claudia Pina (Winter Wildcards, ST)
- Theo Hernández (Thunderstruck)
- Lucas Digne (World Tour)
- Diogo Dalot (Thunderstruck)
- Ledley King (Winter Wildcards)
- Vedat Muriqi (La Liga POTM)
Any non-midfield players are ideal candidates for the Evolution, especially strikers and fullbacks. Since the Evolution does not boost shooting or defensive numbers, you have to make sure the players already have elite numbers for their respective positions.
Before selecting your candidate, make sure your attackers have Finesse Shot and Low Driven. For defenders, make sure they have Intercept, Anticipate, and Jockey. Bruiser is another important PS for fullbacks.
Past the upgrade, the cards will be 90 overall, making them unchainable for a long while. That means it's best to stack as many sensible upgrades as you can to add the desired PlayStyles and stats before applying the final touches with In All Areas. Just make sure you don't exceed the requirements we mentioned above.
The Evolution chains well with the Iconic Defender Glow Up Evolution from ICON Swaps. For Lucas Digne, Diogo Dalot, and Ledley King, that's the path we recommend going.
Both Jonathan Tah and Claudia Pina have elite numbers for their roles and all the desired PlayStyles. They're probably going to withstand the test of the power curve for the coming months.
Theo Hernández might have a touch low defensive numbers. You can wait for any Evolution that increases them without raising the overall. The Frenchman has all the meta PlayStyles, so he'll properly defend your flanks regardless of his stats.
