Pes 2013 Growth Type -

In PES 2013 , player development in Master League and Become a Legend is dictated by Growth Types, which determine when a player hits their peak and how quickly their stats decline.  Core Growth Types 

While names can vary slightly by translation or region, the internal logic follows these primary curves: 

Early Peak: These players develop rapidly in their teens and early 20s but often see their stats stagnate or decline as early as age 24–26.

Standard: The most common type. Players grow steadily through their early 20s, reach their peak around 27–29, and begin a gradual decline after 30.

Late Bloomer: Development is slow initially, but these players experience significant stat jumps in their late 20s and can maintain their peak well into their mid-30s.

Long-Lasting: Similar to Standard or Late Bloomer, but with a much slower decline rate, allowing legendary players to remain highly effective at ages 35+.  Factors Influencing Growth  pes 2013 growth type

The "Expected Progress" curve visible in the training menu is not fixed and can be altered by performance. 

Explosive Growth (Breakthroughs): Randomly triggered for young players who play consecutive matches and maintain a match rating above 6.0. This causes a massive, temporary stat boost.

Play Time & Performance: Frequent starts and high match ratings (7.0+) accelerate development beyond the predicted curve.

Training & Items: Using the Master League Shop to buy equipment like cycling machines (stamina) or dumbbells (strength) provides permanent or seasonal stat boosts.

Team Roles: Players with roles like "Youth Prospect" or "Protege" receive development bonuses, which can steepen their growth graph.  Quick Tips for Development  In PES 2013 , player development in Master

Check the Chart: Always view the "Progress Curve" in the player's training tab to see if they are nearing their peak.

Loan Strategy: If a high-potential youth isn't getting minutes, loan them out to a team where they will be a guaranteed starter to ensure they don't stagnate.

Boots: Don't forget to equip boots in the player's Item menu; they provide small but vital boosts to specific attributes like speed or shooting. 

Here’s a comprehensive review of the Growth Type system in Pro Evolution Soccer 2013 (PES 2013), specifically for Master League and Become a Legend modes.

The Three Main Growth Types

PES 2013 generally categorizes player development into three distinct curves. The Three Main Growth Types PES 2013 generally

4. Early / Constant (Type 7)

Also known as: "Early Peak with a Twist."

The Curve: This is a hybrid. The player grows quickly like an Early Peak type until age 24. However, instead of crashing, they plateau at a high level until age 26, then decline differently—often losing physical stats (speed/acceleration) first, while maintaining technical stats.

Key Characteristics:

• Fast initial growth.
• Short but high plateau.
• Asymmetric decline (physical > technical).

Who fits this type? Wingers and explosive strikers who adapted their game as they aged. Think of a player like Robben or Ronaldo (Brazilian) – fast early, but lost pace later while keeping dribbling and finishing.

How to use them:

• Maximize them as wingers until 27.
• After 28, retrain them as a central striker or advanced playmaker where pace is less critical.
• Do not use them as fullbacks after age 29.

"Standard" vs. "Potential"

PES 2013 introduces a mechanic where players can exceed their expected growth if they perform exceptionally well (scoring lots of goals or getting Man of the Match awards). While they cannot change from Type B to Type A, a Type B player might reach a higher overall peak than expected if played constantly.

📈 Type A: The Late Bloomer (The Best Type)

This is the most desirable growth type for long-term Master League saves.

• The Pattern: These players often have average stats at a young age (17–20). They grow steadily, but their growth explodes between ages 24 and 28.
• Potential: They usually reach their peak overall rating around age 29 or 30, maintaining it for a few years before declining.
• Strategy: Be patient. Don't loan them out or sell them if they aren't performing at age 22. Play them regularly, even if they make mistakes.
• Example Players: Often found in youth squads or regens.
