Gems
Posted on October 18, 2018 by Fifa-base

Welcome to our annual review of the best lower league gems, this time with FIFA 19!
Below we will explain what these lower league players are, as well as the detailed
reviews of the top 15 lower league gems. Our table that contains all these cheap
young stars can be found shortly after our reviews. So, in case you’re too lazy to read
our reviews, you can scroll down to our table!
Lower league gems- What is a lower league gem?

FIFA 19’s lower league players are often made up of unknown players characterized
by low overall ratings. It doesn’t however, equate to poor performance. Any Career
Mode player out there knows that players do adapt to the new environments they are
subjected to, in this case, new teams.

As long as a player maintains a constant and active positive performance on the

pitch, they have better chances of retaining their positions on the team.

With the potential for improvement, they can be a better save for your team as
injuries are often bound to happen and can get quality players sidelined. Such lower
league gems can come in handy playing Career mode.

Main advantages of lower league gems

The major advantage of a lower league gem is often their price tag. As compared to
top league players, you would often make a huge saving on your transfer budget.
Being unknown and weak overall ratings makes them cheaper than their
counterparts from the bigger leagues. Not only are they cheap to hire but also their
wage demands are often lower putting your club’s finances at a better state.

Player performance often improves with positive performance on the pitch much
better when they are younger. However, past the 30 age mark, degradation sets in
and it eats away a player’s capabilities quite fast such that regardless of who they
are, it gets to a limit where a player is a total disappointment on the pitch. Lower
league gems are young and often have much more time on their boots to offer.

With the potential for improvement, you can develop a lower league gem into a fine
top performer. In fact all lower league gems displayed here are also considered
19 wonderkids but with the big difference in ease of acquisition. That is, all these 50
lower league players can be bought using teams that are not powerful, mid-level
teams. Regardless of the purpose, you use them, they can later be sold at better
prices to begin the circle of nurturing lower league gems while improving your club’s
finances.

You still do not have FIFA 19? Perhaps some of these players are also considered
lower league gems in the previous version of FIFA, but the best thing is to guarantee
the new FIFA 19 that contains a panoply of improvements, besides the normal
updates for teams/players. See below some of the main features of the new version

More often than not, following all the releases of FIFA, a problem is always bound to
be spotted by the avid game lovers worldwide. The problems always formed the
basis for re-engineering of the game prior to the next release. Often, the new
malfunctions spotted in the previous release getting tacked and integrated into the
next flagship. FIFA 19 is one such release that has seen perfection in the game
incorporated over the years.

Some of the top features EA Sports team has addressed into FIFA 19 from the
previous releases are;

The 50/50 loose ball capabilities for both team members

Each year sees a release of the EA game on major gaming consoles available. FIFA
18 was a flagship release that saw much introduced into the perfection of the game.
However, much like previous releases, loose battles have always been a focus of
frustration for most players.

Loose balls often attract two opposing players heading for the ball. A setback sets in
when they draw closer to the ball as the decision on who wins the ball is often not on
the players to decide. Often, one player gets sidestepped and remains motionless or
sluggish leaving you frustrated as you watch the ball taken away. FIFA 19 introduced
a fair 50/50 battling mechanic such that, loose ball possession is often down to the
player’s capability to perform better on the pitch to win the ball from a rigorous ball
battle.
Timed finishing feature

As an avid FIFA player, the way you finish creates much better feeling than the
number of scores you make in a game. FIFA 19 paid took that into consideration and
added a timed finishing feature onto the game to give your finishing a much-revered
feel.

You get the timed finishing right and you produce a perfect shot. It doesn’t, however,
translate to all perfectly timed shots equating to goals but it creates a realistic feel
when on an intense encounter with the opponent’s goalie.

Active touch is another feature added to perfect animations

The previous release of FIFA saw player face improvement to much resemble a
human appearance. However, player interactions were still an offset as more often
than not, a ball would get into a player or a player would go past barriers. More so,
the interactions between a player and a ball were not really that authentic, FIFA 19
incorporated this into play such that player-ball interactions are much more lively
and realistic.

The champions and Europa League rights

For the biggest developer of the much-endowed game of football, it was a surprise
that EA Sports never had the rights to Europe’s top flight leagues of the Champions
League, Europa League, and the Super Cup. FIFA 19 sees the introduction of these
top 3 leagues introduced. The entire package, which means you get the feel and the
experience of an actual Champions, Europa or Super Cup experience.

Team selection animations added into the game makes it even better as it builds a
much-hyped suspense in anticipation for the next round. More so, the A-team voice
of Allan Smith and Martin Tyler gets replaced with Lee Dixon and Derek Rae’s voice.
Participating in either tournament, the game console gets customized to reflect the
tournaments colors.

Much of the improvements for FIFA 19 saw few new additions into the game but
much more inclination into perfecting what was already in place. Perfection in FIFA
19 gives the game a much more equilibrium position, designed for both expert FIFA
players and newcomers to the game.

Immersion is the ultimate drive to get the game feel realistic and natural while giving
you much better options to customize the game giving you the feel and look to get
the best of the FIFA game feeling.

The career mode received no much updates from the previous release as much
focus was on the Champions League. You get to participate in any of the three
European top-flight tournaments depending on your teams previous season’s
position and what better way to participate than with lower league gems.
