The introduction of the FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions in FC 26 allows you to add playstyles of your choice to the promo cards.
This is the first instance that allows us to completely control what type of playstyles can be added to a card. However, not every playstyle is useful for every footballer, and it largely depends on the position. This guide will help you to add the correct playstyles to the FUT Birthday promo cards that you pack or obtain from rewards.
