So I understand that some in-game stats have are a higher weight in making up one of the 6 face-card stats:

• Finishing -> Shooting;

• Short Passing -> Passing;

• Dribbling -> Dribbling;

• Stand Tackle -> Defending;

• Strength -> Physical;

I am working on one particular EVO and he is basically the only player I care to take with me until the end of the game. EVO and base card are both in the pictures carousel. Though I’m not eager to use him, I just want to EVO him as best as possible and then play with him whenever he is ready and while he is upgrading.

I started evoing him before I fully understood how all of this works and unfortunately I brought him all the way to 90 finishing and 99 dribbling in-game.

I was wondering whether to restart him focusing on the right in-game stats to keep the face-card ones as low as possible. Would that make sense?

Main question then: is it the right thing to focus on getting up to ~90 all the individual in-game stats that weigh less than the big 5s (finishing, short passing, etc.) before putting the card through one of the uncapped EVOs that give +5/+10 in-game across the board to all the stats of one of the 6 face-card stats? 

Base Rick has 75 dribbling (not face-card but as in-game stat) so would it be sensible to start over even though his dribbling is already quite high?

I hope I was clear enough with my explanation to make it so someone can understand me and help me out. Thanks to everyone who will try to do so!
