Whether you’re looking to dominate as a striker, lock down the defense, command the midfield, or guard the goal in Vision, this guide has got you covered. I’m breaking down the best builds for every position, plus some secret traits that the top players don’t want to share—but I’m sharing them with you! From Pure Striker builds to elite Goalkeeper setups, you’ll get the exact stats, traits, and playstyle tips to optimize your gameplay.
Best Meta Builds Guide
For this guide, I’m going to show you the best Defender, Striker, Goalkeeper, and Winger builds. I’ve got you covered on everything! I’m also going to be sharing some hidden traits that the top players don’t want you to know about. I’m putting you on because why not?
Pure Striker Build
Let’s dive into the first striker build. This is the Pure Striker build focused on physical prowess. Everybody’s using this one, and I’ve got the stats below for you:
- 11 Power
- 11 Speed
- 3 Control
This gives you Contender, Mock, and even Curve Shot. This build is OP, and I run it with Kunigami, though you could use Boro or Shido if you prefer those flows. Right now, I’m running the Villain trait. Let me explain how it works:
Villain: The more you’re up, the stronger you get in terms of control, speed, and power. Right now, I’m up by 10, so I’m moving ridiculously fast with 11 speed and increased control. It also buffs your shot power and control, so you’re solid even with just 3 control.
That said, I’d only recommend Villain if you’ve got trustworthy teammates who pass the ball well. It works best with a coordinated squad, that has Pleaser. When they pass you the ball, you get a stat buff, and your shots are noticeably stronger.
Driving Striker Build
Same stats, but this one uses the Driving trait, which is often underrated. A lot of people think it’s trash, but it’s secretly meta.
Driving: This trait allows you to move at full speed while dribbling without being slowed down. So, you’ll be as fast with the ball as you are without it. It’s a game-changer if you want to move quickly through the defense.
I personally use Villain to balance out my weaknesses in control and speed, but if you’re not into Villain, I recommend Driving as a great alternative.
NOTE: When it comes to picking traits, you’ve got two options: You can either negate your weaknesses (like choosing traits that buff control or power if you’re lacking). Or, you can enhance your strengths (like using Clinical Finisher to boost your already high power).
Striker & Midfielder Hybrid Build
This build is for players who like to get crafty. The stats are 11 Power and 3 Speed, so you’ll need to rely heavily on dribbling. I’m using Elegance, which gives me Curve Shot and Nutmeg. It’s not a great build for defending, but it excels in finesse.
With the Rigid trait, it compensates for the lack of speed by boosting your dribble distance. It’s not a beginner-friendly build, but it’s deadly in the right hands.
Meta Defender Build #1
First up, we have a defender build running the Hungry trait. What makes Hungry so good is that the less you have the ball, the faster you get. It’s a perfect trait for defenders who need to chase down attackers. With skills like Excel and Blind Spot, this build is fast and aggressive.
Another thing many people don’t realize is that defenders can have strong dribble frames if you execute correctly, so you’re not completely helpless when you’ve got the ball.
Skilled Defender Build
For more skilled players, here’s a defender build that uses the Bull trait. With 11 Power and 11 Speed, you can tackle opponents from a crazy distance. Bull makes this build great for stopping fast-moving threats, and when paired with Hungry or Spiderweb, you’ve got a rock-solid defender.
Best Goalkeeper Build
I’ve got Time Dilation on this one—a rare trait that slows down the ball when activated. With 11 Power and 11 Speed, this build focuses on speed and reaction time rather than defense stats. Time Dilation is hard to get but is a fantastic trait for goalkeepers.
Best Winger & Midfielder Build
I didn’t go too deep into winger builds because they’re similar to the first striker build I showed. I’d recommend 11 Speed and 11 Power with traits like Shinobi or Hungry if you don’t want to hog the ball. For midfielders, you can either go with the first or second striker build, depending on your playstyle.
Summing things up
And that wraps up the Best Meta Builds Guide for Vision! I hope this breakdown helps you elevate your game, whether you’re going for that Pure Striker power, locking down the field as a defender, or mastering the art of goalkeeping. Remember, your choice of traits and playstyle can make all the difference, so experiment with what fits you best and keep refining your builds.
