FIFA 21 Ultimate Team

Got my 30 Rivals games completed. Currently rank 1 in division 3 with 15,500 points. It finished on over 16,000 last week but I'd imagine a lot of people will have decided to play WL instead as the points are only barely creeping up every hour or so, so fingers crossed I'll hold on but rank 2 would be fine anyway.

That said, I am on an absolutely horrific run. I was on the cusp on division 2 this morning but played 11 games today - won 2, drew 2 and lost 7 :eek:

I literally finished my last game on 1440 skill rating which means one more draw or loss and I'm down into division 4.

Looking forward to a night off from it tonight.

What do you guys usually do when on a bad run?

Turn off the game and when I come back, change my formation :pac: working a treat so far. Played 5 yday, won 4 lost 1. That one loss was to a miles superior squad, so I’m not complaining about that one.

Portu sitting as my CM in a 4321 and Promes RF has saved me.

Not sure what I want to do next with this team. Either De Bruyne for Thiago or save 100k more and swap Mane in for Calvert-Lewin/Rodrigo?

A small change I would make is get Fati on 10 chem, start with a 433 with fati only linking to Thiago and rodrigo, would have to start DCL as a CM though.

Then use the custom tactics to go to whatever formation you want

I broke with the level 5 restrictions. Currently downloading, earliest I've ever started ultimate team.

Good point. Getting Reguilon @ LB could do the same thing.

Of the prem players I have used... Rashford, Aubemeang, Bruno and Fred have all performed very well.

Fred in cdm in 4231 is too good

I've come to the conclusion that Tomori and Teixera are the two greatest footballers on the planet

Some of the players prices for players are just stupidly low.

3 weeks into the game and we have, for example:

Hazard - 74k
Ben Yedder - 73k
Son - 180k
Aubameyang - 217k
Dybala - 53k
Dembele - 43k

That’s just a random selection of a few meta players who were all about 3-5 times that price this time last year. There are tens of other examples.

I’ve been keeping an eye on Van Dijk and he’s gone from about 550k this day last week to 400k now.

Crazy!

Calvin

Yeah, EA have ****ed the market this year. Everyone, including myself, too reluctant to buy any of the big players... and now with the new promo on Friday, which was leaked as being named “rulebreakers”, the market is gonna drop even further.

I've a few players to sell. Do you think it's better to list them now rather than waiting for tomorrow or Friday afternoon?

I honestly haven’t a clue.. I’d usually sell Thursday when rewards release but the market is so unpredictable this year. I’m probably going to do the same with my Neuer, Semedo and Sane that I packed. Hopefully a nice 150k-ish

Lord TSC

I was heavily leaning towards grabbing Messi for the weekend but am ultra reluctant now if there’s a promo coming up.

Upside, the OTW Osimhen I got from my preorder pack becomes a really good super sub now.

It’s nearly impossible to get a red card (unless for two yellows) they’re dishing out yellows for fun.

Impossible, as they say... is nothing

Here's the latest one.... 3 mins gone in a DR game and a straight red for a standing tackle.

Good luck with the red picks this morning guys.

Hopefully you’ll all pack a Rashford or Werner!

Blazer

Stuck just on the cusp of getting promoted to Div 4.
I’m definitely hitting the limits of what my base icons can do so think it’s time to trade them in and get either a better icon striker for 500-600k to pair with Ben Yedder or drop him for him and run 2 EPL strikers. Got Richardlison in my packs this morning and Christ he’s really dropped in price. So probably a good time to buy

Lord TSC

Red Florenzi. Decent super sub.

Alaba, Sissoko, Pjanic the miserable highlights of the rest.

dmigsy

Maehle & Amavi reds. Modric & Kimmich the best of the rest. Meh

BrentMused

Division 3, rank 1.

Best pull from 2 rare mega packs and a premium electrum players pack was a discard TOTW :rolleyes:

One of these days I will learn to take the coins.

Mr Moon

G2 Red rewards:

82 El Arabi
85 Zlatan
76 Gavranovic
79 Goldson

81 Sergio Herrera
76 Yeboah
78 Holzhauser
82 Bamba

another year of sh!te red picks, nothing there improves my team.
