### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-08-20, version 9.7.0*

Waste money but still get rubbish players. Very lower chance to have strong players.

### 1/5 — Fix the rates!!!

*2026-08-17, version 9.7.0*

This game has slowly been getting worse with every new season and people have been going into debt just to have a “better” team.

The anniversary has been consistently disappointing because of my terrible luck that somehow always happens to my account.

Thanks for not helping out with any sort of pity system Konami!

### 5/5 — Pure luck

*2026-07-21, version 9.6.1*

Good game if you don’t mind relying entirely on chance.

### 2/5 — 無課金者です

*2026-07-05, version 9.6.1*

〜ガチャについて〜

ガチャはPBを2500個貯めてからね
だいたい2〜3ヶ月で貯まります
（ログインボーナスやミッション、イベントなどでPBはタダでもらえます）

11連ガチャの1周目の10回目のみ期待値があるガチャなので必ず2500個貯めてからです

2周目以降は10回目であっても高グレードの選手を獲得できるチャンスは少ないのでどんなに欲しい選手がいても最初の1周2500PB使ったら終わりです

無課金者からすれば課金すれば出てくるもんと思っていたけども、ここのレビューに書いてある通りいくら課金しようが欲しい選手は出てこないみたいなんでね

ガチャは1回250PBでできるので我慢できずガチャしてしまう人は欲しい選手は獲得できないです

あとはその選手の育成です
ここは課金者有利とは思えなくて日々プレイしたユーザーに利があるかなと思います。
⭐︎3のグローリーカードはどんな選手も売らずにバインダーに保存すると育成もスムーズにいきます

で成果としてはまー最初は勝てないながらもそこそこ選手も獲得できてぼちぼち勝ててるのでまあまあです
無課金なんでそこは興味はないです

### 1/5 — Upset with the game

*2026-06-29, version 9.6.1*

Draw 10 times 250PB cant get any decent player or even campaign player

### 1/5 — New update and still terrible.

*2026-06-23, version 9.6.1*

This new game mode where you guess what random teams win is just pure RNG. 

First team wins with lower rating and then the next team with higher ratings wins.

Konami never fails to disappoint.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-06-19*

Not good

### 2/5 — 今からやり混むには遅いかな

*2026-06-15, version 9.6.1*

ある程度金使ってしまっているからやっているようなものだけど、今からやり始めようと思ってる人は他のサッカーアプリをおすすめします。
ガチャ目当ての星5選手当てるのに11万 そこから同じ選手を9枚🤣 (養分専用のカードでもよし)
カスタムセレクト選手(星5選手の上位クラスいわば星6である)であってもハズレ枠がある
ましてやレジェンド選手ですら使えないOB選手が存在する
実際とゲームではあまりにもかけ離れた空間に居るようだ

ベッカムが世界最高のストライカー 的なポジションにいるから本気で笑えた  
ペレやロナウジーニョ、マラドーナ、どんな選手よりもバグってる
天下のKONAMIゲームだと思いたくないかな

### 1/5 — ガチャの確率設定（カスタム・セレクト枠）およびゲームバランスに対する抗議

*2026-06-14, version 9.6.1*

ウイコレをプレイしていますが、現在のガチャの確率設定、および課金に対するリターンの少なさについて強く抗議します。
10連250PB（約4,000円相当）という高額な設定に対して、偶数回以外の排出率が1%以下であること、そして100連（約4万円）を回しても、特定の狙いであるカスタム選手（5体中1体想定）に辿り着く確率が実質6%程度にまで薄められている仕様は、あまりにもユーザーを軽視した集金体制と言わざるを得ません。現在、現環境で使い物にならないセレクト枠ばかりが排出され、多額の投資が完全に無駄になるケースが多発しています。
YouTube等の演出を鵜呑みにしないコアユーザーは、この異常な確率とコストパフォーマンスの悪さに全員が限界を感じています。また、App Store等の批判レビューを通報・削除依頼によって隠蔽し、表面上だけ優良誤認を誘うような姿勢も企業の社会的責任として疑問を抱きます。確率表記の見直しや、天井システムの明確な改善、およびユーザーの声に真摯に向き合うことを強く要望します。

### 1/5 — New update and still terrible.

*2026-06-12, version 9.6.1*

This new update for the World Cup is absolutely abysmal and still gives you free draws that won’t guarantee you anything to help your team out.

Thanks for another year of nothingness Konami.
