    Raced through the remaining Icon Swap objectives in the past 2 days, as well as doing this week's Silver Star. Hidden gem has been Andrich, the fairly slow German CDM. Honestly doesn't feel sluggish and has been all over the field in the holding role, I'm really enjoying using him for various objectives.

    By completing the final Icon Swap tokens, I got to the magic 12 token mark and opened up my Mid Icon pack this afternoon...

    I'd consider starting tomorrow/Thursday if I were you Yev.

    Watching Nick do as you'll be doing, he's still at 850 packs having been doing this for 2 days now.

    It's a tricky one as I'm loathed to leave Messi or Son on the table.

    But, starting at say 10PM on Friday night is probably going to leave me looking at three consecutive 16 hour days of this, and even then, that might not be enough time.

    Right, sorted the template.

    Will begin once the lightning rounds are done tomorrow night, probably about 10.

    I'm going to hold judgement for a little while until I've used him in a few games that need stamina - and you'd definitely need to switch him up top or CAM. Bit difficult to link out too other than a full La Liga team (unless you did Ansadi, which I didn't, and regret skipping).

    CL Varane down to <140k now. Gonna need to stock up on a few of him as I think he'll bounce like last year once everyone opens their packs and sells up. Papu Gomez signing for Seville is some tasty news too.

    Looking at the notes - all they spend these patches doing is nerfing attacking play mechanics rather than improving the game. Glad they're making juggling harder as conceding to that is complete bollocks.

    Yeah I think the early start will be needed to be fair. Nick has even somewhat done away with his no man left behind thing and he's still opened over 1100 packs and has over 800 sat in his store. On top of that he's crafted Ribery, Boateng, Dybala and 3 Icons(Burtagueno, Zanetti and Lahm). I think even Thursday may be the latest I'd start.

    In past versions my main gripe with him was his M/M workrates as stamina is something you rarely get on a card when a player is in his 30s. I'm not sure how he'll do now he's M/L. He was always my favourite CAM though.

    Still nothing about AI blocks. Lol.

    Although it's taken them this long to realise volley chip shots and keepy uppies are broken.

    I’m in a decent position with that TOTW. If I get a usable red then I’m happy, if not then I have enough for the 86+ upgrade.

    Decided to try and utilise the ever so slightly lofted passes/through balls (where you double tap the button) and scored this beauty thanks to it:



    Really need to try and use them more as I scored another goal using it too in that match.

    And yes, those pitch lines are glorious.

    I've also decided that I'll be doing Boateng tomorrow so I've stuck Zakaria up for sale. He's been immense and I'm going to make a slight profit (bought for 207k) on him as he's going for around 250k.

    Bringing in Boateng will also mean I can drop Neuer (who just seems to fall over) for Ter Stegen.

    Right, all done for TOTY. 1,200 packs as per the below. In reality comfortably 'worth' over 25m coins/three grand.



    Some shitty ones snuck in as I can't open anything be it on console or web app at the mo. There's also a silver pack in my saved packs somewhere, but I haven't included that in the list above.

    I'll do MM after I've started opening packs, which will begin when the filthy lightning rounds are done between 9-10 tonight.

    Packed TOTY Lewandowski

    Straight onto the transfer list for the big man. Will be picking up a Cantona once he's sold (not sure on mid or base...the latter is slightly quicker but they're fairly similar)

    I've just completed Cannavaro.

    I did spend 150k on the 88 because I'm a fool (I had a dupe Rodri and went to do one of the 86's but forgot to use him so did the 88 with some coins instead of putting Rodri into a segment of thebase/mid icon).

    Dented about 105 from the pile (I was really struggling in the last hour and a dupe untradeable Muller was the end of me) and I've done alright so far.

    I redeemed WL a couple of days ago and I really wish I hadn't. I've still got just over 300 packs to open before Tuesday whilst recycling.

    I'll probably just do 6 wins to get me 1000 points and if that isn't I'll end up skipping next week.

    The blue walkout trolled me hard last night. I gave up on the Bundesliga upgrades and went back to EPL and got Ederson but in the next back got another walkout with a blue background and thought I'd done it. It was even worse that it was Sterling who walked out.

    After searching through to see if I had any more packs for milestones or SBCs available I found I haven't done any of the League/Nation hybrid SBCs. I think after those are done and cycled through, I'm dry.


    I've picked up some decent fodder for an SBC or two. For example I reckon I could get the top rated squad for an Icon done or maybe someone like Bruno, but I don't have the rest of it to back it up and finish it before time expires.

    Dybala and Boateng look obvious ones, though we're surely due a midfielder tonight(Muller?) but Boateng would only really fit in if I had TOTY Neuer/Davies/Kimmich to justify him. I'd at present have to put gold Davies there and he'd be a downgrade.
    Dybala would provide me a strong link to CR7 but then he would cause issues further back in the chemistry. Both of these cards look nuts though.

    The other option is to gamble. Either on Bruno to get him done in time(and gamble that he gets a winter refresh) or take it to a base/mid icon upgrade. The problem with the latter is there's a lot of cards there that would make it so I was better off just discarding the stuff I put into the SBCs.

    Opened 2 of the ultimates and a rare mega earlier. The ultimates were crap (first had no walkout, second was Carvajal) but the rare mega was nice with IF Bernardo Silva.

    He'll go nicely into the 86 with 1 IF segment in the base/mid when I get round to it tonight.

    After finishing at 4am I dragged myself out of bed about 2 to open a few more. Tale of the tape so far:

    Opened - 442
    Walkouts - 32
    IF Walkouts - 3
    IFS - 9
    Boards - 150

    No TOTY's or Icons and best pull so far is UCL Kante.

    Just gonna have a shower and grab some food then stream cracking on with the remaining 812 packs.

    Just got trolled hard.

    I knew it was a walkout and then the purple flare hit...

    TOTY Mention Marquinhos.

    A nice card and my best pull thus far but gutting when I was sure it was a TOTY.

    EA fucking love Marquinos. Looks like a tidy card and could play DM. I have his Freeze card and he's consistently solid.

    What's this Ronaldo SBC all about then? He looks a bit meh, especially compared to Dybala, but has some great links, which makes me tempted...

    Picked up Cantona (90) and Varane from selling Lewandowski for a cheeky 2.9m

    I see it as a Ronaldo for the people who can’t afford Ronaldo.

    Let’s you have him in your team for 20% of the cost.

    Right, so after building SBC's for 22 of the last 24 hours I've been SBC banned and no one at EA help seems to know how to fix this.

    Gonna grab a coffee and then back on for a combination of opening packs on console and building SBC's on the web app until the ban expires.
