    Fair play to EA for changing that.

    Nearly finished the League and Nations Hybrid, just need to grind out the chemistry on the players I've bought to finish the 'Tough' SBC.

    Should have 50k after that, so I think I'll do MM and then open all the packs and the 10 silver players ones in the store too.

    Bumped up to Ultimate and it feels much better. I've only played a handful of games so far so it's early days but any goal I've conceded has actually felt like I was responsible, and on the other side of it I've actually been able to keep a clean sheet or two for the first time.

    Yes and no. The opposition are harder to break down but so far it feels like playing against an actual football team rather than magical pinball wizards so it's more challenging but also clicks much more.

    It did take me a while for Legendary to fuck me right off though so there's plenty of time for Ultimate to do me in too.

    I just gave it a go and landed IF Torres in the first pack.

    Almost nothing in my 11 packs opened. Onto the silvers and I get Ince in the second pack who goes for over 8k.

    EDIT: And an Argie in the third that looks like he goes for similar too.

    Did all 10.

    Cost 50k. Sold players pulled for 20k so far, have another 40k on the trade pile (all lowest BINs) and about 80 players sent to the club, loads of which are from leagues that will have SBCs later on.

    Very worth it I'd say and I think only available until tomorrow.

    So you pulled and sold around 40 players for 60K (including the ones currently listed) and then sent the other 80 players to your club?

    If that is the case then it seems very worthwhile. I may get on it.

    Yep, exactly that.

    The 9k Argentina player sold overnight and a few others, so I've now sold 45k's worth of players for an initial outlay of 50k.

    I'd say it's probably impossible not to make coins from it medium to long term and unlikely not to make coins from it short term.

    More convinced than ever Silver Pack Method will be a thing this year once more league SBC's are out.

    Just use Futbin.

    Replace players that fit the same criteria and avoid using the cheapest solutions listed would be my tip.

    I applied that logic to the advanced sbc’s and wasn’t fleeced.

    Im trying to avoid futbin and try and come up with the puzzle myself. I usually use the same method you have just outlined when I do use futbin.

    What is the verdict on POTM Lucas?

    I am thinking of doing the SBC and playing him at ST in place of Adama (who is somehow keeping Zaha and Lacazette out of my team).

    He’s great. More productive for me than POTM Sterling was at the beginning of last year for me which is going some.

    Probably not strong enough for striker though, Gabriel Jesus has been great for as a strong link to Lucas though.

    This. Without the Sterling bit as I didn’t have him.

    I bought about 5 of those silver packs and pretty much made my money back already with the rest stacked in the club.

    They're such good value, which ironically is partly driven by very few people realising they are.

    Up to Elite 1 in Squad Battles again this morning, but it's going to be hard to play the games I need to to stay there whilst also making a dent in getting Rank 3 in division rivals again. Just not enough time this weekend.

    I did the Lucas SBC and pulled over 70K from the packs (included 85 Sterling who I already had). I also did it very cheaply by sniping the players (FUTBin stated 46K and it cost me 37K).

    Great result.

    I forgot to mention the packs make it worth it. Was almost break even for me as I got a Koke in the club worth 15-20k and sold Bailly for 18k amongst plenty of other players to buffer out the stock.

    Hoping for a Pereirra in form after his goal for Leicester.

    FUT Swap SBC's have been added.

    I will be all over that Lallana card - 5 star w/f and 85 stamina.

    So after a week of shit sleep and kids stopping me playing, I'm starting later tonight.




    These are the perfect enticement for me. El Shaarawy and Lallana look quality. Hopefully they're almost free like last years were.

    I'll be going for that Lallana too.

    First token available in the Daily Objectives today for winning three Division Rivals matches.

    Assuming these card me carry over I might claim as many as I can and keep my powder dry and hope to double down on something better.

    Three of them wouldn’t fit and Lallana doesn’t interest me much.

    Just lost 9-0 online to someone who was pressing in a way I haven't seen in this version. His players had such forward momentum that even when I tackled him the ball would just bounce back to his player.

    Seriously, what custom tactics are these fuckers using?

    Came up against another guy doing the same thing in the next game, went 2-0 down and thought "fuck that", went more defensive instead and picked him off on the counter with a 3-2 win.

    I'm 25% of the way to qualifying for the weekend league now, which I never thought I'd say.

    I've just seen Lallana's stamina.

    EDIT: Strength I meant, but his stamina is shit as well.

    85 isn't too bad. Although stamina really seems to hit the CAM position hard.

    Fair point. Misread that.

    This defensive approach (chiefly driven by the strikers dropping back to defend) is amazing. 3 wins in a row now and Futswap secured. The last game I was dominant from start to finish, winning 3-0. The opposition can close you down as much as they like, but there's still two lines to get past when they do.

    You get a Dortmund Burnic as the Futswap card.

    This is a very, very good point.

    Didn't the announcement suggest there were going to be a few of these through the year? If so, doing this will probably net you some much better cards down the line.

    Apparently they are use or lose. According to someone on Reddit anyway.

    Getting very sick of Squad Battles now. The ridiculously deep and compact defence of the AI makes it so tedious to play against any teams bar the wank bronze/silver polluted ones, no matter which difficulty you play on.

    I've invested too much time to play to anything other than Elite 1 this week, but might only play to Elite 2 from next week onwards and do online more.

    Going through all my reward and loyalty packs etc.

    It's given me a champions league player pick pack. I know little to nothing about this, but it seems to be a permanent player and not a loan. What's the deal here?

    I only ask as I've been given Nastasic, Rugani(both meh) but then Witsel, Lozano and Florenzi. The choice between the latter 2 is the decision for me. Lozano was an ever present super sub last year, with Florenzi being probably my favourite RB.

    I am guessing you picked one by now since its been over half an hour but yep, they are yours to keep. I got Aurier in mine, he will be in the team for a while.

    Market prices of their CL cards:

    Florenzi 78k
    Witsel 37k
    Lozano 10k

    I went and checked prices. Saw Lozano already has a better card out and I doubt I'll go Bundesliga yet so I went for Florenzi as he's by far the highest cost.

    Just over 13k worth of shite in my loyalty packs. One I buy a stadium and sort my kits out I'll have 10k or so. Then I need to work on getting the FUT swap item and the OTW card.
    Free stuff is good to collect.

    Played a couple games to get me up close to 20k. I know I'm playing as a low chem bronze team against full chem gold teams in Squad Battles, but the passing feels atrocious. Auto-switching on defence also leaves a lot to be desired. Hopefully a gameplay patch can sort that out soon.

    Players do seem oddly priced in this so far, but I reckon I'm not far off being able to whack together something playable.

    If you can be bothered with the grind then I have made some serious coins via sniping.

    I am finding it much easier to earn coins this year, I think having the weekly rewards helps because it gives you a large lump sum.

    I'd echo Boom's sniping point, using filters to aid. English gold players from Burnley is one I've made serious wedge from so far. Other than that I'd suggest getting the advanced SBCs done ASAP.

    - League and Nation Hybrid
    - Hybrid Nations
    - Hybrid Leagues

    Been out all day and pleasantly surprised to get home to find I'm still in Elite 1 on Squad Battles.

    4 more games should secure it and one of those is against a bad side, which will actually be enjoyable as a result.

    Cheers lads.

    I played my 5 placement games in Division Rivals to see if I could win the 3 games for that swap card. Won all 5 placement games with a pretty shit team. Got placed in Div 4. Won my 1st game 1-0. Then proceeded to relatively dominate the next 2, but lost 5-1 and 3-0. They kept having shots from the edge of the D and they'd all fly in.

    Meanwhile I have 1 on 1s that see my just knock it lightly into the goalkeeper. I need to work on my finishing. Whenever I try a low driven it balloons over the bar or past the post.

    My passing also needs a lot of work. It's either slow and ponderous which sees me keep the ball, or it's fast and direct(how I like to play) but then every 4th or 5th pass is errant and gives the ball away. It's also pretty clear you cant really knock it round the corner anymore.

    The shooting is bugged in that your players will occasionally do a piss weak side foot effort no matter how much power you put on it. The shots that are flying in against you are presumably timed finesse shots which are massively overpowered.

    Just spent another 30k on 83s and 84s and 12k on a Japanese Liga Nos week 2 IF who looks the bollocks. Shouldn't have missed him really.
