PES 2021 Become a Legend

Starting a career in PES 2021 Become a Legend mode is easy. Turning that unknown rookie into a global superstar? That is where the real work begins.

In this guide, I’ll walk you through everything: how to set up your player, how the menus work, how to actually play the matches, and the passing secrets that separate winners from losers. Let’s go.

PES 2021 Become a Legend Offline Android – What Is This Mode?

Become a Legend (BAL) is a mode where you don’t control the whole team. You control one player — your own created footballer.

You start as a nobody. A rookie with low stats and a spot on the bench. Then you train, you play, you score, and slowly the whole world starts to know your name. You get transferred to bigger clubs, win trophies, and grow into a legend.

The best part? The whole mode works offline. Once the game is on your phone, you can play on the bus, in your room, anywhere. That’s why so many players search for PES 2021 Become a Legend offline Android — it’s the perfect mode for people with limited data.

Key Features of PES 2021 Become a Legend Offline Android

Before we jump into the how-to, here’s what makes this mode so addictive:

• Create your own player — name, face, body, boots. It’s you on the pitch.
• Pick your position — striker, winger, midfielder, defender, or goalkeeper.
• Grow your stats — train after every match and watch your ratings rise.
• Earn match ratings — play well, get a high rating, grow faster.
• Transfer to bigger clubs — start small, end up at a giant club.
• Play as one player only — the camera follows you, like a real career.

Now, let’s get you on the pitch.

How to Start: Setting Up Your Player

First things first. Open the game and from the main menu, scroll until you see “Become a Legend” or “Exhibition → Become a Legend” depending on your version. Tap it.

Then you’ll create your player:

1. Name — give your legend a name. Have fun with it.
2. Position — this matters a LOT. My advice for beginners:
   • Striker (CF) — easiest. Your job is simple: score goals.
   • Winger (LWF/RWF) — great if you like running and crossing.
   • Attacking midfielder (AMF) — fun, but you’re involved in build-up play, so it’s harder.
   • Avoid defender or goalkeeper for your first career. Fewer goals = slower growth.
3. Appearance — customize however you like. This doesn’t affect gameplay, so take your time and make him look cool.
4. Starting team — you’ll usually start at a smaller club. That’s fine. Legends are made, not born.

How to Play PES 2021 Become a Legend Offline Android (Step-by-Step)

Okay, this is the part most guides skip. I’ll hold your hand through it.

The Menu System

Once your career starts, you’ll see a menu with options like:

• Next Match — tap this to play your upcoming game.
• Training — this is where you improve. Never skip this.
• My Player / Player Data — check your stats, skills, and growth here.
• Save — save your progress often. Seriously.

What NOT to click: anything that asks for an internet connection or links to online events. You’re here for offline mode — ignore those.

What Happens on Match Day

If you’re in the starting lineup, the match starts and the camera follows only your player.

If you’re on the bench, you can simulate the match until the coach brings you on. Early in your career, you’ll spend time on the bench. Don’t worry — it won’t last long if you train well.

The Controls

PES 2021 Mobile uses a virtual joystick on the left and buttons on the right:

• Pass button — tap for a short pass, the direction depends on where your joystick points.
• Through pass button — sends the ball into space for a running teammate. This is your best friend.
• Shoot button — tap for a normal shot. Hold and swipe slightly for more power and placement.
• Sprint — push the joystick hard in a direction, or double-tap and hold depending on your control settings.

Quick tip: go to Settings → Controls and choose “Advanced” controls. It gives you more freedom with passes and shots. It takes a little practice, but it’s worth it.

Master the Passing Game: 5 Tips That Win You Matches

Here’s something most players never learn: how good you are at passing decides how many matches you win. Not shooting. Passing.

Because you’re only controlling one player in Become a Legend, your passing has to be smart. Let me give you the tips that changed my game.

1. Learn When to Pass and When to Through

A pass goes directly to a teammate’s feet. A through pass goes into the empty space ahead of a running teammate.

Use a through pass when:

• Your teammate is making a run
• There’s open space in front of him
• No defender can cut the ball

Use a normal pass when:

• Your teammate is standing still
• Or he’s running but there’s no gap ahead

Passing to a running player forces him to stop and kills the attack. If he’s running free — through it.

2. Master the One-Two Pass

This is the easiest trick to break any defense, and pros use it all the time.

Here’s how it works: you have the ball, but a defender is blocking your path. So you pass to a nearby teammate, and the moment you release the ball, you run past the defender. Your teammate passes it back to you — and you’re through.

In Become a Legend, call for the ball back immediately after passing. Most of the time, the defense falls for it completely.

3. Beat Pressing Opponents With Their Own Aggression

Some opponents press like crazy — they rush at you the second you touch the ball. Good. Let them.

When a defender sprints at you, he leaves a huge gap behind him. The moment he commits, play a through pass into that gap. He’s already running the wrong way. He can’t stop it.

You can even bait them: hold the ball, wait, let them lose patience. Then punish them.

4. Time Your Crosses Right

Crossing is one of the easiest ways to score in PES 2021 — if your timing is right.

Cross the ball when your teammate:

• Has some distance from the goalkeeper (not right next to him), and
• Is in position and ready to head it.

Too early or too close to the keeper = wasted cross. And if you love crossing, play as a winger and aim for tall strikers. Short players lose too many headers.

5. Stop Making Blind Passes

Honest truth: most of the goals you concede come from your own blind passes.

When you’re under pressure and can’t see a good option, don’t just smash the pass button and hope. A pass you know will fail is worse than no pass. Turn with your player, shield the ball, wait for support. Keep possession. The chance will come.

A simple habit to build: after every match, check your pass success rate in the stats. Above 80%? You’re doing great. Below that? Work on it — this one number will change your results more than anything else.

How to Grow Your Player Faster (Training & Skills)

Growth in Become a Legend comes from two things: training and match ratings. Here’s how to max both.

Never Skip Training

After matches, you’ll get training sessions. Do them every single time. Focus your training points on:

• For strikers/wingers: finishing, speed, dribbling
• For midfielders: passing, ball control, stamina

Skills to Unlock First

Skills make a huge difference in PES 2021. Prioritize:

• One-Touch Pass — your player passes faster and cleaner
• Through Passing — better, more accurate through balls
• First-Time Finish — shoot instantly without controlling the ball first
• Acrobatic Finishing — score with volleys and bicycle kicks (fun and useful)

If your player doesn’t have a skill you want, some versions let you add it as an additional skill as you grow. Always give your midfielder one-touch pass and through passing. Always.

Match Ratings Matter

Play well in matches and you get a higher rating. Higher ratings = faster growth + more chances from the coach. So don’t disappear in games. Make runs, call for the ball, and get involved — especially when your team attacks.

Common Mistakes Beginners Make in Become a Legend

I’ve made all of these. Learn from my pain:

1. Holding the ball too long — if you wait until a defender tackles you, it’s your fault. Release the ball early.
2. Choosing the wrong position — playing goalkeeper as a beginner is slow torture. Start as a striker or winger.
3. Skipping training — training IS your career. Skipping it means staying a nobody forever.
4. Chasing the ball everywhere — trust your AI teammates. Stay in your position, make smart runs instead.
5. Rage-shooting from far away — shooting from 30 meters every time gives the ball away. Get closer. Be patient.
