Luis Suarez’s new Evolution card in FC 25 is a huge step up from previous versions. For players who struggled with his Flashback card due to clunky dribbling or limited chemistry style options, this upgrade changes everything. Now featuring improved dribbling and elite play styles, Suarez becomes an instant game-changer up front. His improved responsiveness allows you to finally use more aggressive chemistry styles like Hawk without making him feel heavy on the ball.
The biggest change is how the improved dribbling allows Suarez to benefit from the Lengthy style. Combined with the Quick Step play style, Suarez now has explosive pace bursts that help him get past defenders quickly. In previous versions, players had to sacrifice shooting power just to make him turn better. Not anymore. The Evolution version lets you maintain both sharp movement and elite finishing.
Shooting animations and traits make him a top-tier striker
One of the standout qualities of this Suarez card is his incredible shooting. Whether it’s low drivens, finesse shots or pure power strikes, Suarez rarely misses. His shooting animations are smooth and fast, making him extremely reliable in front of goal. Thanks to the five star weak foot, he’s also unpredictable and effective on either side.
He comes loaded with high-impact play styles like Finesse Shot, Power Shot, Low Driven, Press Proven and Quick Step. This combination makes him deadly in almost every shooting situation. Even with just white or slightly mistimed finishes, Suarez finds the backof the net more often than not.
The Hawk chemistry style is highly recommended. It boosts his shooting and pace while adding to his strength. Suarez already has the technical stats and traits to hit perfect shots. The Hawk just takes it all to another level. It also lets you take advantage of his body type, which combined with Lengthy, makes him a nightmare for defenders in physical duels.
Movement and AI positioning are a massive bonus
What really sets this Suarez card apart is how smart he is off the ball. His runs into central spaces are sharp and well timed. He often draws defenders away or positions himself perfectly for a cutback. Even if he is not the one scoring, he helps create opportunities by pulling attention and opening passing lanes.
While he does not have Advance Forward Plus Plus, his base AI movement is still very effective. Many players will barely notice the difference unless they are deeply focused on AI behavior. He will still make intelligent runs and position himself well in most attacking setups.
The improved dribbling from the Evolution upgrade also means you do not have to force him into tight spots. He turns well enough for his size and can hold off defenders with his strength. This makes him ideal for central roles, whether as a lone striker or in a two-striker formation.

Why the Evolution upgrade is worth it
If you compare this Evolution version to the previous Flashback card, the difference is clear. Before, Suarez needed Engine just to feel usable. Now, with improved dribbling stats and traits like Press Proven, you no longer have to compromise. You can build Suarez to be a full power finisher and still get decent movement and control.
Many players will be tempted to go back to Engine to boost agility and balance further, but it is not necessary. The card feels great with Hawk, and the improved animations mean that even bigger strikers like Suarez can be responsive without maxing out those stats.
This card is a dream for players who want a physical, clinical striker who can still move with the ball and hold off defenders. He is also effective in different systems whether you are using 4 2 3 1 or 4 2 1 3. Even in wide forward positions, Suarez has enough pace and traits to contribute consistently.
His shooting with Hawk is among the best you will see, especially when combined with traits like Finesse Shot and Low Driven. Even from bad angles or on the weak foot, Suarez finds the back of the net more often than not.
If you are looking to evolve a striker who can completely change your attack, this Suarez card is 100 percent worth it.
