Pes 2013 Growth Type

In PES 2013, every player (real or youth academy) is assigned a Growth Type. This is a hidden or semi-visible parameter that determines:

It’s the backbone of player development — a high Overall Rating (OVR) at 19 doesn’t guarantee a world-class player at 26.

Also known as: "The Keeper Curve."

The Curve: Goalkeepers are fundamentally different. They improve slowly from 18 to 25, then steadily from 26 to 31. Their peak is incredibly late – 32 to 35 – and their decline is almost non-existent until age 39.

Key Characteristics:

Who fits this type? Every dedicated goalkeeper. Gianluigi Buffon, Iker Casillas, and Manuel Neuer all follow this logic. A 34-year-old keeper is statistically better than his 25-year-old version.

How to use them:

In PES 2013, there is a fourth category reserved

Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 (PES 2013), player growth in Master League is governed by predetermined "growth curves" that dictate when a player reaches their peak and how long they maintain it. While the exact values are often hidden, they generally fall into four main categories. Player Growth Types Early Peak pes 2013 growth type

: Players with this growth type develop rapidly in their late teens and early 20s but reach their maximum potential early, often around age 24-25. After this point, their stats may plateau or begin a slow decline.

: This is the most common growth type. Players show steady improvement throughout their early 20s and typically peak between ages 26 and 29. They usually maintain this peak for several seasons before declining in their early 30s. Late Bloomer

: These players develop slowly in their early years but continue to improve well into their late 20s. They often reach their peak around age 30 and can maintain high-level stats much longer than other types. Early/Lasting or Standard/Lasting

: Variations of the above types where the player reaches their peak at the expected time (early or standard) but maintains those peak stats for an extended period before the inevitable decline. Factors Influencing Growth

While the growth curve provides the "path," actual stat increases are dynamic and influenced by several active factors: Playtime & Match Rating

: Consistently playing matches and achieving high match ratings (ideally above 6.0) is the most effective way to ensure a player hits or exceeds their predicted potential. Training Regimes

: You can customize a player's development by focusing on specific attributes in the training menu. This can alter their final stat distribution even if it doesn't fundamentally change their growth type. Explosive Growth (Breakthroughs)

: Younger players can occasionally trigger a "breakthrough" period after a series of good performances. During this time, they gain significantly more experience points per match, potentially jumping several overall points in a single season. Items & Equipment In PES 2013, every player (real or youth

: PES 2013 introduced a shop where you can buy items (like dumbbells or cycling machines) to provide temporary or season-long stat boosts to specific players. Longevity & Decline Position Differences

: Goalkeepers generally have longer growth curves and tend to peak later and decline slower than outfield players, often remaining viable into their late 30s. Retirement & Regens

: When a player retires, they are eventually "reborn" in the youth academy as a 16-year-old with their original growth potential, allowing you to develop them again from scratch. specific young players have the highest potential growth curves in Master League?

Also known as: "Normal" or "Balanced."

The Curve: This is the most common growth type, found on 70% of professional players. Development is steady from 18 to 23, a consistent rise from 24 to 27, a peak plateau between 28 and 31, followed by a moderate decline after 32.

Key Characteristics:

Who fits this type? Most squad players and solid professionals. Think of players like John Terry (in his prime), Frank Lampard, or Xavi. They aren’t flashy prodigies, but they provide a decade of value.

How to use them:

✅ Scout young players with "Late Peak" or "Consistent" – they’ll serve you for 10+ seasons.
✅ Avoid Early Peak players unless you plan to sell them before 27.
✅ Check a player’s growth type by viewing their development curve graph in the training menu.
✅ Loan out teenagers with slow growth – they often get hidden stat boosts.

| Mistake | Reality | |---------|---------| | “High OVR at 19 = future star” | If Early Decline or Early Peak, they may regress by 26. | | “All regens grow the same” | Regens keep the original player’s growth type. | | “Training fixes decline” | Training slows decline but cannot reverse it after age curve drops. | | “Become a Legend lets you choose” | No — it’s preset per position/player ID. |
