We think the Luiz Legacy Evolution is underwhelming for all the hype surrounding its release. While the PlayStyle+ is a welcome addition, the limited pace boost, lack of significant dribbling upgrades and absence of LB/RB positions make it difficult to recommend over other affordable centre-backs on the market. The Block+ PlayStyle has its uses, but we would have preferred Anticipate+. Overall, it's a decent option for players looking to replace a specific defender, but we don't think it lives up to expectations.
