The AcceleRATE system that was introduced for the first time in FIFA 23 is the root of this year\u2019s overpowered feature, Lengthy players. We go over AcceleRATE and how it functions in FIFA 23 in great detail in our dedicated guide. That will tell you all you need to know about the new system, but the short version is that AcceleRATE splits players into three acceleration categories: Explosive, Lengthy, and Controlled. Explosive players have a quick first step but lose velocity over a prolonged sprint. Lengthy players are a bit slower off the ground and make up for it the longer the run goes on. Controlled players are the balanced type that doesn\u2019t fit into the other categories. Are Lengthy players overpowered in FIFA 23? The one AcceleRATE type that\u2019s risen above the rest is Lengthy. The first few days of gameplay have shown that while Explosive players receive a small boost in an area they are already strong in, Lengthy turns previously unusable players into genuine FUT options and players that would otherwise feel a bit clunky into absolute units. Is Lengthy overpowered in FIFA 23, then? It is truly a matter of perspective. Tall and sluggish players have never been as in fashion as they are this year, but it\u2019s not like Explosive players are completely out of the loop either. At worst, it can be said that a few players appear clearly better than everybody else at their position right now. Isn\u2019t that the case every year, though? The meta always has its favorites. It just so happens that FIFA 23\u2019s meta favors Lengthy players. You can adopt a glass-half-full or glass-half-empty approach, but the truth is we\u2019re not seeing anything we haven\u2019t seen before as far as overpowered mechanics go. How to make players Lengthy in FIFA 23? A player\u2019s AcceleRATE type is determined by dry stats and is automatically assigned by the game engine. The requirements for Lengthy are: Strength must be greater than or equal to 65.Strength must be at least 14 points greater than Agility.Acceleration must be greater than or equal to 55.Height must be greater than or equal to 174 cm (5 feet 9 inches). If AcceleRATE is determined by default, how could you \u201cmake\u201d players Lengthy? The devil is in the details. AcceleRATE types are determined by stats, but they aren\u2019t locked to the players\u2019 regular starting stats. Our answer, therefore, lies in these two words: Chemistry Styles. To be extra specific: Architect Chemistry Style. Chem Styles alter a player\u2019s base stats in FIFA 23. Architect is the style that boosts Strength by the largest amount. When applied, it raises that stat by 15 points without affecting Agility at all. You\u2019re probably beginning to see the full picture now. If you take a player whose Strength is one point less than their Agility and equip them with an Architect Chem Style, they will now have 14 points more Strength than they have Agility. Voila, you\u2019ve created a Lengthy player. Top five Lengthy players in FIFA 23 Now that we know what Lengthy players are and how incredibly strong they can be in FIFA 23, it\u2019s time for some recommendations. We won\u2019t simply list the highest-rated players that just so happen to be Lengthy. It is a nice feature to have, yes, but every player we\u2019ll recommend has it by default, so we must look at other meta-relevant stats to make players stand out. Given the nature of Lengthy, players that fall under the category almost exclusively play in the center of the pitch. That\u2019s perfectly fine because we can propose a pair of brick walls at the back and arguably the best card in FIFA 23 up front. As a bonus, we have one of the best all-around midfielders in the game, and look at that, the best full back in FIFA 23. Perhaps Lengthy is overpowered after all.
