eFootball 2025 Epic World Classics (Pele, Cruyff, Puskas) pack review

eFootball 2025 has arrived with the Epic World Classics pack.
The pack features Pele, Cruyff, and Puskas, with the former getting two Show Time skills.

The Epic: World Classics pack in eFootball 2025 brings back three legendary players, Pele, Johan Cruyff, and Ferenc Puskas, with classic card designs. Pele stands out in this pack with two Show Time skills: Phenomenal Finishing and Phenomenal Pass.

Well, this is a top-tier pack, and I’m sure many might have already spent coins on this because of the one big name. But Cruyff and Puskas, who are all-time players, have also splendid cards, so here’s a complete review of the three after I tried them out in offline and online matches.

Three Epic cards are here. Pele gets two ST skills, while Cruyff has Momentum Dribbling, and Puskas gets Phenomenal Pass.

Pele

Position: CF
Playing Style: Deep-Lying Forward
Show Time Skills: Phenomenal Finishing and Phenomenal Pass

Pele gets double Show Time treatment here, so he can be that final pass creator while also being a lethal finisher. Well, this might be the same going forward. After spending a little extra on this man, safe to say the card is worth the effort.

His attributes are insane, as first off, he’s got pretty much everything apart from defending, and that says it all. Dribbling is silky, with stats sitting comfortably in the 90s across ball control, dribbling, and tight possession. He feels incredibly light on the ball with almost perfect balance and top-tier acceleration.

But what sets him apart is how effortlessly he does it all. I’m an okay dribbler, but with Pele, the way he traps the ball and moves is something that impressed me; he makes it easy. Also, the way he executes his shots and passes is simply amazing.

His physical contact and stamina are surprisingly solid for a player of his mould, so they have a strong player ID for him. But yes, those who are not fond of Deep-Lying Forward playstyle, this isn’t for you. Surely a Poacher card will arrive.

If you have him, giving him Long Range Shooting skill is a must; without this, he was hitting the post from distance quite a bit. One Touch Pass and Outside Curler are the next two essential skills, while the other two slots can be filled with any shooting skill like Dipping, Rising, or Knuckle Shot.

Ferenc Puskas

Position: CF
Playing Style: Fox in the Box
Show Time Skill: Phenomenal Pass

Pretty disappointed that the first international football superstar was overshadowed by Pele’s arrival, but it is safe to say this guy is the purest striker in the game. Puskas gets the ultimate finisher treatment, however, which comes with the highest rating in the finishing department.

But what’s more “Phenomenal” with this card is that, for a CF, he gets the Phenomenal Pass skill. This is brilliant for me, because his Finishing is already endgame, and pairing with a Goal Poacher becomes easy. Still, make no mistake, his main job is to score, and I’ll say this, he is the best finisher in the game.

The ball just rockets off his left foot with pinpoint precision. His tight possession and ball control are both strong, and he feels very smooth when dribbling, even though the numbers don’t scream that. He’s also explosive on the burst, with acceleration pushing the mid-90s and solid speed as well.

Just like Pele, he has a good physical game, which I don’t see affecting your play much. He doesn’t seem to have a weakness, but a lack of dribbling skills is something you need to address, so give him Double Touch. Long Range Shooting skill is also needed for him, although it doesn’t seem to affect him one bit.

Johan Cruyff

Position: AMF
Playing Style: Hole Player
Show Time Skill: Momentum Dribbling

Cruyff, for a long time, has been one of the overpowered players available in eFootball, and this card is also the same. His dribbling, tight control, and ball movement are among the best in the game, and on the pitch, he is easy to use and really difficult to stop if you are his opponent.

He’s got one of the smoothest first touches and can turn defenders inside out with his animations. His passing game is sharp, and combined with his flair and movement, he can run the creative side of your team with ease. Cruyff’s finishing isn’t to be overlooked either; he is really accurate with it.

His stamina and balance help keep him active across the full 90, and while his physical contact is average, he rarely loses the ball thanks to his tight control. He can play in any position up top, and those numbers make him a lethal fit anywhere you want to.

First Time Shot is needed here, I’m suggesting him as an SS to make use of his high finishing numbers at the same SS build. Surprisingly, this guy also misses out on the Double Touch and Long Range Shooting skills, so make sure you give it to him.

Best pick from the World Classics pack in eFootball 2025

The World Classics pack is a dream pack for many players, surely. All three are endgame-level cards and provide different options depending on how you like to build your attack. For me, all three are greats in their respective positions, so you can’t go wrong with any.
