FIFA 21: Featuring the FUT 100

[Gray Fox]

This is actually quite a good TOTW. I have Friday off so there's temptation to grind Rivals to try and get the Ultimate packs and hold off on Huntelaar.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Brasilvers done. I just need Bundesliga goals in 3 matches to finish off The Hunter.

Highlight was me winning a match 13-7 having been 5-2 down at half time.

[Gray Fox]

I'd saved my 86+ double for today as the last TOTW was crap. Opened it up and saw the special board at the back, got a bit excited, but that became "what's orange?"

MOTM Chilwell and Robertson were my two.

Now it looks like it's time for a Rivals session. The 2 x Ultimate and Mega pack for Rank 1 look very appealing. I have 7k points now and 13.5k seems to about get you R1. Problem is I have 13 games left. Going to need decent points from each game to pull it off.

[Raoul Duke]

Finished the Swaps Squad Battles in 12 games. Gonna start BuLi first as that's going to be the shittest. Also completed the Silver objective that gets you a mega pack and got Varane out of that. Then did a couple of PP and got two IFs. Solid evening's work

[Danny]

I finished the silver milestones today when doing the silver star. Jumbo Rare Players Pack and a Rare Mega to disappoint me on Friday.

I might crack them before Friday if we get a leak and the second team is shit.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

The guy who has been solid with Birthday leaks wont leak team 2 until Friday as he's gotten stick from content creators and "INVESTORS" apparently.

[Danny]

Of course

Ill have an eye on it Friday morning.

[Yevrah]

Nick just opened his prime/moments Icon pack and got Moments Puyol. All that objective grinding, for that.

[thommo]

Had he already done the SBC?

[Yevrah]

He had.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

[Danny]

Most I can get its 10 as I didnt do one and then took the 81+ and 83+ so my options are pretty limited.

[Raoul Duke]

New Squid Battles AFK glitch: https://www.reddit.com/r/FIFA/commen...battles_while/

EDIT: might be an April Fools I haven't tried it

[Gray Fox]

Not one single sodding walkout from all of my packs, including 2 ultimates. Quite irritating. I did get a few 85s and 84s though so it wasn't a complete disaster. Churned the shite back through the 81+ picks and got about 10 of them. The first 5 or so were all 82/81 and I was feeling very demoralised. But in came The Woj at 87 and Parejo. Just about had enough for one last pick and it turned out Casemiro which turns okay set into good.

Attention now turns to swaps. I think I'm giving Huntelaar a miss. I just don't see me ever using him beyond a sentimental appearance from the bench.

In my Rivals binge last night I didn't realise I'd got to 14/15 on the swaps token for goals. So doubling up the Battles tokens would give me enough for the 83+ x 25 pack. The other 3 I need should be reasonably easy done. I'm hoping there's a leak of Team 2 before Team 1 goes out of packs. The idea would be to chance the big pull but hope for good FODA towards hopefully Sanches.

I'm expecting Sanches to cost near 1m. He's going to be 88/89 rated and broken as hell. On top of that because of the promo he'll have a 5* WF or skill moves. I think he'll end up having both. If they do make him stupidly pricey then there's Vidal, who I could do now. Coin total is 300k and I'm nearing the cost of affording Neymar which has been a long term ambition, but beyond that there's not much to do with it.

FUT Birthday team 2 rumours: https://twitter.com/FUTInvestLeaks/s...36874500546563

Raheem Sterling
Luca Modric
Paulinho
Aouar
Adama Traore (ST)
Emre Can
Youcef Atal (RM)
Bernardeschi
Ryan Kent (RW)
Fikayo Tomori
Objective - Choudhury

If that Kent is correct then the hyperlink to Tavernier could be mega. Plus allow you to get Rooney in more easily.

Zlatan rumoured as a Flashback too

[Danny]

Why another moved Adama ffs. And another Aouar, they were both in freeze

If that Choudhury is silver then that pretty much completes my silver team.

[Gray Fox]

Kent, Tomori and Atal look filth there. Though a striker 5* WF Adama? God help us.

If it is indeed Gervinho tonight, then excitement for Renato tomorrow rises. He literally fits perfectly in for Jones. I think I'll save my 25 x packs for that 2nd team.

[thommo]

If that Team 2 is correct, consider me underwhelmed. Same old faces AGAIN. Then again, this community is fucking rancid so it's only pandering to most of them with this line-up.

Modric would be intriguing to me, other than that I'm not fussed.

[Danny]

Gervinho as expected.....

Also a STEEEEVE has been added. Obective mode where you use ONLY keepers. Joe Hart's pace might be nice!

CB clue for FUT 18. Bailly it is.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

I was winning a game in Rivals 6-2 and just put Caputo through on goal and the guy fouled me as a last man, was given a red card and the game said it was forfeited as he didn't have enough players.

It was his first red and he hadn't made any subs.

[Danny]

I think you get that when people leave sometimes.

Mandanda done.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

How is that a penalty?

The trip on Cannavaro is more of a foul (these little niggly ones never go in favour of the defender either).

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Playing Rivals to finish the Swaps and I would go 1 up and my opponent would equalise fairly quickly after. In the 87th minute he made it 4-3, led for the first time and gave it the full celebration:



Cannavaro and Caputo weren't having it.

[Gray Fox]

I know I said I wasn't going to bother, but I've now completed Huntelaar, the Brasilvers and Mandanda. I'm preparing for them to go into Sanches/Vidal if needs be. Giroud should also be feeling hot under the collar about now.

I'll miss the upgrade packs(assuming we don't get replacements) but there's now no need for me to rush the swaps. If I play 1/2 Rivals games and a normal WL there's 2 down. 12 games of Battles will see me claim 4 more. Then I just need 2 of the last 3 from One League.

[Danny]

Top work!

I am 1 game from finishing the SB stuff.

[Raoul Duke]

lol at those Iheanacho requirements. Outrageous

[Gray Fox]

What a rip that is. Podolski and Palacio are both cheaper than that and significantly better.

[Danny]

Madness, players like IF Vardy and Headliners Zaha are close to or cheaper than the price.

Its not even a good card.

Messi Lingard robbed again.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

You'll be crying when they put out a one nation swaps requirement for 11 first owner Nigerians next season.

[Danny]

Mid season Obafemi and King Ighalo got me covered

(Who am I kidding, I am taking Gomes)

[Danny]

Team 2 matching the leaks.

94 POTM Benzema out and cheaper than Iheanacho

[Gray Fox]

So the leak was bang on again. They must surely know that we're all sat waiting for Sanches. This will not have a happy ending.

1 x 86 for Payet seems okay. Very good card though lacking in killer pace. God save us with Adama though.

[Raoul Duke]

Team 2 is so much better. Some banging players in there

[Danny]

97 and 94 with the hunter. Looks very good.

[Danny]

That Hamza card is nice. I am still sad he isnt a boosted silver though.

[Danny]

EA put up the FIFA 19 clue as Valencia.....they took it down because Kondogbia transferred to Atletico.

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

The leaks guy says he knows 19 & 20 but it seems he's trying to drum up some interest into his Discord server.

[Danny]

I saw that. Ill pass.

[Raoul Duke]

Just give us Sanches so I can see if I can afford him

[Sir Andy Mahowry]

Tomorrow.

[Danny]

I think I am going to want to do Sanches (as long as he isnt stupid priced) and then Bailly.

[Danny]

Everything but the games with England goals done on Choudhury.

Gomes scored a lovely chip with pretty much his first touch.

[Gray Fox]

I was talking to Thommo about this before. His 84 card is still 440k/350k. Depending on his rating we'll get about the price. An 87 rated card(which I think is more likely) will likely be in the 600-800k range. Let's not forget he will also have 5* something. I think both. EA also know we are all waiting.

An 89/90 rated version of the card is going to come in at 1m+. He is meta everything. They know we want him and add the 5* on top, you'll have a hard time affording him.

[Gray Fox]

Opened my 83 x 25 pack:

[Danny]

Thats....annoying

[Raoul Duke]

Mandanda and the Brazilian Silver/Silver Stars crew now into the club. Hopefully gonna rattle through most of the Icon Swaps today

[Yevrah]

Finished Huntelaar right before the deadline, doubling up on the Samba Stars, who're also done now thanks to a rubber band that came with my latest contact lense delivery.

Need two tokens to get the 83 x 25 pack so I'll bash through two of the SB objectives to get that done and then all eyes are on 6pm and hopefully what lands then.

Packs will be opened (I only have about 20) and player picks built with coins to craft that bad boy.

[thommo]

Finished Huntelaar and the Brasilvers off yesterday, and quickly played 8 games of Rivals late last night to get up to 2000 WL points and redeem just in time for this weekend. With the house being empty this weekend, I may have both the bandwidth to do a WL stream, and the time to finish all 30 games for the first time this year so far!

Over the week I opened a shedload of packs and picks and was able to finish Podolski, Ozil and Vidal, with a lot of fodder still sitting in the club. I'm ready to complete an Icon or 2, as I don't think Sanches is going to be worth it for me, considering my CM options. I'm genuinely struggling to work out my best team with all the top cards earned recently.

[Gray Fox]

The downside to that Aouar pull, if there is one, is I don't know how on Earth to fit him in. Though the fodder in that pack allowed me to do Ozil for free. I keep getting Parejo in picks too, so I'm forever holding a dupe. I did a player pick with the Ozil packs and it churned out a Bruno too.

There's probably 250k or so of fodder in that pack. I was hoping to get a birthday card, but if I did I was expecting it to be that German left back(who looks very good to me). I should have the 82 x 25 pack ready for tomorrow but I'm not expecting a walkout there. I am expecting a lot of dupes.

From here the plan is to do one of the SBCs. If I'm lucky 2. The shopping list has Vidal and Reus on it. Though I've no idea how I'd make that work either.

[Yevrah]

Vidal is a right bugger to link.
