In-game feel & playstyle
Rose Lavelle's TOTS Honourable Mentions card is built to play as a Shadow Striker behind the line, and the numbers back it up. With 93 dribbling, a 95 dribble rating, 92 pace and an Explosive AcceleRATE profile, she changes direction and bursts into space the way you want a roaming CAM to. The 93 passing with 99 short passing and 96 vision means she threads through balls and quick one-twos without hesitation, while the left foot paired with a 5-star weak foot lets her finish or set up from either side. At 92 OVR she feels sharp and reliable in the final third, and the 97.7 meta score reflects how complete this attacking profile is.
Strengths
- ✅ 93 dribbling, 95 dribble rating, tight close control for weaving through congested boxes.
- ✅ 92 pace with Explosive accel, the quick first few steps that separate her from defenders.
- ✅ 93 passing, 99 short pass, 96 vision, elite playmaking for through balls and link-up.
- ✅ 5-star weak foot, finishing and passing options from both feet despite being left footed.
- ✅ 89 shooting, enough finishing to convert the chances she creates as a Shadow Striker.
Weaknesses
- ❌ 71 defending, do not rely on her to track back or win the ball in midfield.
- ❌ 71 physical, she can be muscled off in duels against stronger bodies.
- ❌ 4-star skill moves, very good but not the 5-star ceiling some flashier CAMs offer.
Best position, chemistry style & squads
Her best home is CAM, with CM as a usable alternate from the data. Given the 92 pace and 89 shooting already in place, a Hunter (+pace, +shooting) leans into the Shadow Striker role and pushes her toward a sharper goal threat. If you would rather max her playmaking, a Catalyst boosts pace and passing for a more creative hub. Chemistry links come through the NWSL league and her United States nation, so pair her with other USWNT or NWSL options to keep her on full chem.
Final verdict & ratings
Buy in, or rather slot in, if you want a top-tier creative CAM that also carries a real goal threat; the 97.7 meta score and S tier are earned by the pace, dribbling and passing trifecta plus a 5-star weak foot. Skip only if you need a CAM who defends or wins physical battles, because 71 in both DEF and PHY is the honest ceiling here. The price is unavailable, which means this card is likely untradeable, so treat it as an objective or SBC reward rather than a market purchase.
Conclusion
A genuinely elite Shadow Striker: blistering, creative and clinical, with only defending and physicality holding her back. If you can claim her, she walks into a chem-linked USWNT or NWSL side.
