This feature is next gen exclusive, which means you don't feel any of cheap FIFA 23 Coins it on your PS4 and Xbox One consoles. In defense, Lenghty remains the best running style. Now, the Explosive acceleration has been buffed, or rather fixed.
The AcceleRATE meta has changed several times since FIFA 23 release. In the beginning, players with the Lengthy Accele RATE type were the best ones. In comparison to the other running styles, Lenghty was simply bugged and OP. Typical EA, isn't it?
Bringing a new feature into the game that doesn't work properly. The Lengthy meta is over, but that doesn't mean the Lengthy players are bad. They are basically just as good as they were a few months ago, since other AcceleRATE types have gotten better.
Until the current Title Update 9, Controlled was the best AcceleRATE type for midfield and attack.
Moussa Diaby somehow felt slow with his 99 pace, and since Explosive players basically have little physicality, he not only lost sprint duels but also lacks physical strength. After the patch, his acceleration feels a bit better, but we still think that Controlled players with good physical stats are the better choice.
Kylian Mbappé has the player model and physicality to FUT 23 Coins win duels while maintaining his speed with Controlled. With the step over, which is by the way the best skill move in FIFA 23, Controlled players get straight to their full speed anyway and keep it over the distance.
