Next patch nerfs AI auto-blocking and boosts keeper deflection distance when saving.
It amazes me how they release the same game every year but still can't consistently fix certain issue like this. Meanwhile they ignore massive flaws like midfielders never tracking back and people tackling with their wrong feet all the time
Just had a long session grinding Rivals to earn the WL pts I need for this upcoming weekend. Went 6-2-2 across 10 games, and it's the best the game has ever felt for me. Good connection, responsive players and the ball going where I wanted it to about 98% of the time. It helped that I came up against some solid opponents which made for some enjoyable wins and close games.
It's just a shame that half the time, especially during FUT Champs, the online games feel so stodgy because it's really enjoyable when it plays as it should. Up to Rank 1 now, with enough points to redeem for this weekend. I'm also up to 1417 skill rating in Div 4 for Rivals, which I think is my highest ever since they introduced this system.
I'm also in division 4, I was close to 1500 points a couple of days ago but took 3 losses in a row.
I really should push for high rewards but I always find myself just sticking with rank 3.
Check your club for Maradona.
Ah, cheers - had one I forgot I packed
Me too. Made 1m more coins than I would have done had I sold him yesterday.
His cards have spiked by 700k.
Buying up older icons that are still alive could yield huge profit.
Pele will go any day now, he probably just wanted to outlive Maradona
I am of course joking and not at Maradona's expense. More targeting the morbid fascination this community has when a player dies.
That new silver stars card looks really good.

Objectives, more 81+ Pack grinding and maybe that icon pack.
Losing a rivals match 3-1, I pull it back to 3-2 and on my next attack I'm booted whilst running free down the wing.
Counts as a loss
I almost feel bad for the guy.
Been watching streamers open these icon packs and they don't look rigged in favour of the shite or goalkeepers.
It's inevitable, isn't it?
Er lads...
So I did the icon SBC... Had to open it on the web app. Closed the browser before I saw who it was then logged back into FUT to see this:

That’s it I’m cancelling my download.
Fuck's sake
I suspect it's a mistake, but it's as if EA released it with almost every player having an even weight.
you bastard. Suppose it’s a reward for all the coin you have given them so far.
How you going to get him in?
Nice little touch from EA giving the tifo and kits. Even if I will never use them.
Gladbach have assured themselves of Europa football and are 4 points ahead of third place right now.
Zakaria will be getting an upgrade
£33 on the PS store or £35 for the Champions Edition. Chose the latter and in the pack for it got Busquets and a Hunter chem style. If I'm right in thinking that's a nice 25k in the pot to start the club off.
Usually my first actions are to get a kit/stadium/ball etc stuff out of the way, so you don't have to think about them for a while, but I cant seem to see the option to change them or look to buy new ones. I've not used a FIFA menu since '19 though so this is all new to my eyes. This like a season of milestones and rewards wasn't on the game last time I played.
Either way I'm up and running. I think a safe cheap EPL team is probably the way to go with my very limited budget. Though I'm not sure I should be entering FUT Champs any time soon, I probably will asap.
Sadly not, Hunters are only around 1k.
They didn't make them super rare this year.
For kits and all that you go on the main page and hold either up or down on the stick (one is squad, one is stadium) you then go through the menus to change everything.
Okay I think I'm getting there on the menu. Barebones EPL team made too. If I remember rightly, Thursday is rewards day(Rivals/WL) so there was no real chance of me sneaking into a placement tonight. But it means fresh start tomorrow.
I'm not really sure what "the plan" is but we'll see where this goes.
If you want a cheap beast for the Premier League then Rodrigo is your man.
Worth putting together a decent Silver team when you get some coin too, there's frequent silver objectives that are decent.
So, FUT Champs rewards.
Rona..I'm just kidding. Fernando and Oscar Plano.
Fernando's ok and may go into the team when I shuffle it around Cruyff.
Silver stars done in less than two games. Che Adams is disgusting.
Not sure how I’ll get the French fullback in. I was playing with the squad last night though and think I can on 7 chem. Still leaves Kean, Vydra and the Swiss RM on the bench.
There's a pre-Black Friday promo starting in 3 minutes.
Log in page has a TOTW card on it right? But they already released an upgrade SBC. Wonder what they will be pulling out.
Deulofeu Objective. Win 15 in managerial masterclass
Thank god I finished Champ yesterday.
Flash challenge is up for just under 2 hours.
Bergkamp, Hernandez and Veron released too.
85 Luis Hernandez
88 Veron
90 Bergkamp
Thats base, mid, mid.
Flash SBC up (2 hours)
I have shamelessly stolen Yev's pack sheet.
My slightly more modest stack is 46 packs and valued at just under a million coins.
You are very welcome Mahow.

Testing out Cruyff in Rivals.
Built teams for both Bellerin and Deulofeu and won the first game with the latter side (technically second but first was a game against an idiot with the disco ball so I left after seconds). He would be useful to me right now so will push though it. I don’t think I will bother with the former but like the building aspect.
New flash SBC is up for 2 hours.
And another. 90 minutes or so left.
Did the Base Icon SBC and got Nakata Could probably have done Bergkamp for not much more, who I'd actually want. FFS. Ah well, could have pulled someone mega.
Check the tweet under that too
I managed to knock out all the Flash SBC's and I even did a couple of Saudi & Ligue 1 SBCs.
I could really do with Telles doing something this weekend as I'm down to sub 100k now and I want to do the Icon SBC.
Also, speaking of Telles he's down to 92k right now but last week he spiked to 120k when he was named as starter.
