FC 27 Archetypes, Masteries and Amps

Step 1

Start with the Archetype

The Archetype sets the direction. For a captain, it is the foundation of a player card: position, function and secondary role.

Step 2

A Mastery should reinforce the action you repeat: creating chances, progressing the ball, winning it or covering space.

Step 3

An Amp is useful when it answers a real weakness or opponent style. Do not change it after every poor result.
