FC 26 Make Your Idol Evolution explained: Best players to use

The Make Your Idol Evolution is available in FC 26 Ultimate Team, and it allows you to create unique 91-rated cards of Japanese or Korean origin.

The evolution has several steps to unlock, but it works differently from the usual tradition. You’ll unlock different steps by grinding the season pass and applying the upgrades.

All FC 26 Make Your Idol Evolution steps

The Make Your Idol Evolution begins at level 1 of the Season 6 Pass. You’ll get a unique pack that changes one of your Japanese/Korean cards to World Tour Evolutions rarity. The player needs to be of Japanese/Korean origin and must not be above the overall rating of 85.

• At level 3, you’ll unlock the second step of the evolution. There are three choices based on the position of your card: Attack, Midfield, and Defense. This evolution will apply boosts and improve your selected card to 87. Your card will also gain 4* Skill Foot and 4* Weak Foot.
• At level 3, you can choose the initial playstyle+ for your chosen card from the following options: Tiki Taka, Incisive Pass, Low Driven Shot, Technical, Jockey, and Intercept.
• At level 7, you unlock the next step that will offer three positionally focused PlayStyles and boosts. This will improve your chosen card to 89.
• At the same level, you’ll get to choose from a second set of PlayStyle+: Finesse, First Touch, Pinged Pass, Rapid, Quick Step, and Anticipate.

Once you complete level 7, you’ll have an 89-rated card with 2 PlayStyle+. The final step unlocks at level 21, when you’ll unlock another evolution that offers positionally-focused boosts and additional playstyles. Complete this evolution, and you’ll have your 91-rated Japanese/Korean idol.

Best players for FC 26 Make Your Idol Evolution

Ideally, you can use any Japanese/Korean players for this evolution since they will have similar stats (for similar positions). However, the following cards will have an additional advantage based on body types.

• Heung Min Son
• Hasegawa
• Lee Kang In World Tour
• Ueda TOTW
• Junya Ito
• Takefusa Kubo
• Matsukubo Ratings Reload
• Fujino TOTW
• Kim Min Jae
• Mitoma

While these are my favorite recommendations, you can freely experiment, given how good Make Your Idol Evolution is.
