    Annoying I bought Bale when I did, assumed he'd be out of packs today.

    Busiest day of FIFA for a long time for me. Finished off Coman, Roussillon, 93 Mendy and 94 Bruno throughout the day using just one squad with no subs needed and it was fairly plain sailing. 92 Bruno was so good that I'm really looking forward to using the 94 in Weekend League, possibly as a starter if I can fit him in.

    I've also packed 91 Ramos, 90 Lloris, and TOTSSF Adama Traore, and completed the Rebic and Verdi SBCs for no outlay. As I've built up a pretty decent Serie A squad, I did the guaranteed pack (also for no outlay).... and packed Berardi.

    Champs can fuck off today. Nothing but absolute scummers dropping back with 2 CDMs and come back on defence LM/RM in front of a stay back back 4. The 8-4 is now 9-8 as I’ve played seriously triggered this afternoon.

    So frustrating. The answer of course is to join them, but I’ve always had a probably very weird, puritanical objection to exploiting metas in any game.

    I had prepped for much worse

    Brought my dupe untradeable AWB back from the dead to make that 88 a lot easier. Sold all the fodder I bought for a probably a tax loss of about 20k but brought in Rashford and Greenwood to pretty much complete my United team.

    Just James and Martial to get. I wish we had a good left back.

    This is 100% of the way to play this game. Forget your nuclear-quasar Lionel Pele cards, get yourself a 77 rated Tobias Strobl card. It really is quite magical.

    Also a newbie to this, and share many of the same opinions that Ian has at the moment. I do wonder if it was sold as having LSD spiked referees? I've had about four bizarre decisions each match. My favourite being the time I was running clear and a defender performed what can only be described as a full force flying attempt to bum Kevin Volland into another dimension with triple pike and forward dismount, and poor Kev got the booking for it (and presumably will never find a man to marry him now he's been spoiled). I've also only managed to score one goal in rivals, and that got disallowed after the ref decided to bring it back to give me a freekick after the opposition goalie booped into my striker after the ball had already been sent past him and was about to cross the line. If Derek Rae didn't exist, I'd be rage quitting after each match.

    Same - at least he's high rated, so he'll be going straight into Pogba.

    Also did the Ligue 1 and got Verratti, which is alright. Quite liked his normal card when I played with it ages ago.

    Should I be using coins to just buy good players if there's anybody who'd improve my team at a reasonable price on the transfer market or just spam packs as grist for the SBC mill and hope I occasionally get somebody worthwhile?

    It depends how much time you want to put into the game.

    If you have a lot of time, open bronze packs and get on the SBC hamster wheel.

    True but the bronze > silver > 82-88 upgrade path means you can do it without buying much.

    Bit of both - although prices are brutal at the moment as people are still doing SBCs. It'll drop off soon probably. You should definitely do the Dan James objectives, for example, as it's a piece of piss.

    Yeah I got the Dan James one. That card is ludicrously generous but I see his "proper" one is much more reasonable. I don't really like the multiple variants of one player thing, or how there are some absolute nobodies who end up with really good stats for a version of their card because they're in a Team of the Something.

    If I get packs should I just be getting whatever the pricest one is currently called or does it work out better to spend less for the gold ones and get more to force through the SBC grinder?

    Right now with the amount of special players in packs and the price of the market in general 5k packs are pretty good. I made some coins on those the other week without much effort.

    All players would sell (wingers/FBs from big leagues/popular nations sell nicely) some of the chem styles and position changes are expensive too.


    I just did another any and got Thiago (Bayern).

    Earlier in the game cycle there's lots of value in doing the bronze pack method (essentially buying a load of 400 coin bronze packs and selling off the players of value for >400 in total). There's enough demand for them (say the Saudi ones as they're in a league SBC), but right now there's not much demand as most people have done them. Danny's suggestion of buying gold packs is a decent option right not but higher risk as a few dud 5k packs will probably bankrupt you at the moment.

    This is a good resource: https://www.futbin.com/stc/challenges sorting by VFC (Value For Coins) is useful to assess which ones have decent returns, although I'm not sure how reliable the prices are at the moment.

    Pulisic wins. Capt America looks like a good card for an 85 SBC.

    Bundesliga vote is out. Delaney, St Juste or Lukebakio (that one with the overpriced futmas card). I will probably do either of the first two but would prefer St Juste. My CM options for Bundesliga right now are TOTS Thiago, TOTS Kimmich, FB Witsel, TOTS Sabitzer, Seasons Gotze, TOTYN Reus, UCL RTTF Goretzka, Objective Verstraete and HL Delaney.

    CBs are FB Boateng and Seasons Akanji.

    I now have two different James' and Navas' so I just need to come up with a formation that has RB, RWB, RM and RW in it and I'm sorted for pace.

    Proper 'wildest dreams' stuff there, I can see why this mode is so wildly popular.

    You may already know this but you can only have one version of each in the same team.

    Anyone have any idea what's coming Friday?

    I havent seen anything.

    Been playing rivals because I am a sucker for packs. 12 wins down. Not sure if I should push for them all before Friday to get the best of batch 3 in packs of leave some of them alone in the hope there is an obj I can double dip on over the weekend.

    I picked st juste as the pick. I want to try ramos though so i may not even do juste if he comes out unless he is the business. He has the eder militao build so he will probably be really good.

    My guess would be two batches of the summer heat draft cards come into packs or new champions league dynamic stuff for 5th Aug

    The Danilo upgrade has arrived several days quicker than it took them to do Vinicius.

    Doing the last few wins with Premiership scorers for the James objectives in Rivals, and in the last two of the packs you get for each win from that 'Heating Up' objective I've pulled TOTSSF Pique and Birthday Guerreiro, both of whom are outstanding SBC fodder.

    He is outrageous

    My untradeable Sterling should go up to a 92 after today’s win. He should have got an IF last week too so he should be a 93. Fingers crossed for tomorrow but I doubt it

    I bought that card before he fell out of packs and it was a scandal he didn't get an IF for that hat-trick.

    On the shopping list at the moment are TOTSSF Promes and Erling Haaland. I want clean cards for both so FOMO will make me buy them this week even though if I had nothing riding on it I'm convinced they'll be in packs again.

    I've already lost over 50k on buying Bale in the same way last week.

    I like the showdown idea. It should be run all the time throughout the year.

    If we don't get some early grindable card that we can rank up to 90+ next year, it will be a massive disappointment

    Unless they release the upgrade in stages. Something like how they did with milestones but you know, actually give a shit after a couple of months!

    I do think showdown should remain. Start at something like 84 base card that can go up to 87 and slide it up as the months change.

    That's not a bad idea - have it follow the power curve but need like 25 wins with the card per season or something.

    It does not even have to follow the power curve. You can get the card to 90 before the new year if you put the work in and meet the requirements.

    Just did one of the TOTSSF player packs - 96 Di Maria. Brilliant card and will strong link to Zanetti, who is so close to 1000 games now.

    Had limited time this last weekend so only managed to get to 6-1 in my first Weekend League without 90 Werner since January. Ibra, Rebic and Verdi took over up top and performed really well together.
