Came up against a fella in rivals with the 89 Mendy, so he was doing the win objectives. Paused it straight from the off and sent me a msg asking me to let him win.. had a full Real Madrid + Essien and Mertens, best players in every position... more than capable of beating me. I said no and told him to play on, so he calls me toxic :pac:

Blazer · 19-06-2020 8:53pm

Man that 89 Mendy card is great fun to use.
Makes a great CAM.

I’m down here in Div 10 and I’m feeling really guilty about my opponents.
It’s obvious they’re absolutely awful at Fifa. Funny thing is they all read the fifa 101 book and first lesson was dragbacks.
Then they skipped the rest of the book on passing tackling, defending and shooting

Every single one of them can dragback amazingly, miles better than me. But that’s it.
Only 2 challenges left for Mendy and they’re simple to do. Can’t wait to try out that 93 card.

Hogey007 · 19-06-2020 8:56pm

Only need 4 more wins with a mendy assist for the 93 version.
Found it much easier than I was expecting (watch me take an eternity now for the last 4)

I think having the futmas mendy helped so much because it got me ahead of the crowd, I’m mostly playing people now with 85 or 87 mendy who don’t really care if they win.
Once everyone starts reaching the 89 mendy and needs the win, the sweatiness starts!

GavK · 19-06-2020 9:02pm

I got the 93 mendy this morning and used him in 10 WL games today. He’s definitely worth the grind.

Keeping that in mind for when I get to him... might have to drop down to division 10 :pac: what are the rivals rewards like?

Blazer · 19-06-2020 9:21pm

Did the prime one and got Petit.
I’d normally call that a win. Guess I won’t be using SS Luiz now.

Well as long as you get back down by next Thursday you’ll be fine. Rival rewards are based on the division you’re in starting a new week

Calvin · 19-06-2020 9:42pm

2nd ever icon packed... that’s 2 this year! Mid Scholes back in December.. safe to say that this one is better. Lovely 1m in the bank

Blazer · 19-06-2020 11:02pm

Just 3 games left to win for 93 Mendy.
I honestly wish I could play all 3 versions of his summer heat card.
His 87 as LB, his 89 at RAM and his 93 at CAM.
I’m even playing fb Lemar at LB and using
Mendy up front at LAM.

Hogey007 · 19-06-2020 11:28pm

So right on cue, fifa content is really fun and rewarding, Jamie fut economist back tweeting, new notes on how the servers are going to be much better......classic ea

A month or so of non stop packing special cards and the last 8 months or so are quickly forgotten.

Welcome to the club sir...

Can we have a moments silence for our fallen brothers 85 and 87 Mendy who went into the Ndombele SBC!

Cex paying 16 euro cash/ 20 store credit if any of you are interested

That was in Cork.

Sure why would you sell it now after all this extra work on servers just at the end of the game lol.

Hey you. 89 Mendy is a club legend.
My 89 version has played 8 games with 8 goals and 8 assists.
He’ll never be forgotten.
He has served me well

In division 10 lol

Try it in Fut Champions now and report back on Monday

Bunny Colvin · 20-06-2020 12:35am

8-6 on WL.

I was 2-0 up on one game. Game disconnected and I was awarded a loss. Infuriating. Encountered a lot of lag as well, hate playing on Fridays.

Had a few nice wins though. One game I scored two in the 90min to level it up to force extra time and went on to win it. Same with another game, 2 down but scored in the 81st and 90 and demolished him in extra time. Both games I would have lost before but having TOTSSF Mbappe and Lewandowski means you're always in with a shout. Pozuelo is a class card too, have him playing behind them.

Playing a 3-5-2 for a change. Starting to get the hang of it again. Will play the rest on Sunday, should get the 14 at least.

Inception did a review on his 93 and said it was
a fantastic card and could play anywhere across the pitch.

All hail Lord Inception

I can only imagine, I was sad to retire the 85 Mendy yesterday after 400 odd games, a great sub to bring on at CDM to close out games. He never complained once. He even cloned himself near the end of his time lol.

He's the 6 million dollar man.
We can rebuild him, make him better, stronger, faster.

I'm wondering if it's possibly profitable to run through some league SBCs right now, given the sheer number of special cards available and the fact overall prices are so low.

That was easy, got the 4 extra wins in 5 matches.

2 of them had 85 mendy and were doing the rubber band thing so brought serie a players off the bench and got some of the keisse objectives done too.

Oh 100%, take the conmebal sudamerica, 70k from scratch, you get a 90 rated Argentinian tots striker (easy to link Argentinians in sbc’s)

The cheapest 90 rated on market is 55k so all you need is 15k from the packs and you’ve broke even.
Just use the player in an sbc.

Also, all 84’s and 85’s are selling for a lot higher now with the ndombele, perisic sbc’s etc so if you even pull a couple of 84’s or 85’s you’d make nice profit

Edit: the conmebal ones can be a pain trying to filter to find the players, the csl is only 90k and has a 90 rated dembele too.
Or saudi league 115.
Mls 150k with 90 rated player but you get back 24 packs there.

I've run through the Conmebal ones a few times, thanks to BPM. You can get 90% of the cards for "nothing" that way.

I'm currently cycling all the useless bronze and silvers into the upgraded upgrade SBCs. I had about 100 Romanian League silver players who had no value otherwise :pac:

Had 7 teams left in the Dutch league, did them for about 10k loss, but got the Berghuis, who is great SBC fodder long term. Feel thats where the real benefit would be anyway; getting a 90+ rated player at the end to pump into one or two SBCs in the next few weeks.

Looks like the "profitable" ones are the lower league ones, rather than the likes of the top leagues with their "45k to finish Shefield United" situations...

Liamalone · 20-06-2020 11:30am

Mendy takes corner, Ronaldo heads it into the net deep into injury time - the last Mendy assist with his 87.

Didn't register for objective

I thought corners counted, no?

don't forget you can do low driven crosses as well.. all counts, Corners don't though as they're classed as free kicks.

Lord TSC · 20-06-2020 1:16pm

Actually having fun doing rivals this week.

As well as going for Mendy, I’m bringing SMS and Lukaku on to do Kessie too, so it’s great playing without NEEDING to win, but knowing. I’m on track to get two top players too.

Completely agree. I got mendy much quicker than I thought I would, his 89 is just so good at cam it doesn’t feel like you’re using a lb there.

But I enjoyed that I could just dip in and out, I didn’t feel obliged to play 10 games Friday, 10 Saturday morning as I do with wl.

Same as you, was doing keisse a little too, only need 2 more wins and a couple more serie a goals.
But I’m just enjoying playing a game here and there without “having” to play x amount.

I also think the objective requirements are very fair, there’s nothing too tricky like “score a header in a win”, hardest part of mendy for me was the crosses but as didn’t require the win just spammed it and got the 3 in 5 matches I think, maybe 6.

Mr Moon · 20-06-2020 1:48pm

Got Raul from the prime icon pack, not the worst, was hoping for Butra when I saw the flag!!

Hogey007 · 20-06-2020 1:54pm

Enjoy the last 4 hours or fifa before a 92/93 rated Ryan Kent gets unleashed on us all!

If you plan on completing, grab a high rated English player now, can’t see them using an spfl requirement as players are too low

Ps. I voted for jovic but not a hope anyone but Kent wins.

Bunny Colvin · 20-06-2020 2:00pm

Ridiculous as well, Kent has had an awful year for Rangers.

The entire gimmick of this event is “you guys liked these special cards, and we never got a legit reason to give you better versions, so here you go!” So I guess Kent fits that.

Not sure what Futties will be then though.

Anyway, I’ll throw Shearer into him, cause the guy is never going to get a game for me...

Hogey007 · 20-06-2020 2:17pm

Harry maguire 86 otw is a great shout for it.
Easily got at 20k.
The cheapest 85 English player is vardy and he’s at 22k.
Cbs always do well in sbc’s too if high chem is needed.

What kind of price range you reckon they'l make him? I'd say very high. I've a duplicate sancho ready for it anyway

Was about to post that too... his SIF is 36k too, so his OTW should rise naturally anyway. 86 Sancho also a decent shout at 20k.

I’d guess at an 87 rated squad, just over 200kish.
But could easily be 88 either.

It’s hard to know whether they’ll want to make him easy to get to keep people engaged or if they’ll price him high in order to entice people to buy packs to try get more fodder.

Hogey007 · 20-06-2020 3:17pm

They’ve also just updated the price range on 84’s and 85’s,

This suggest it could be multiple smaller squads, say, 1 x 84, 1 x 85 and 1 x 86

Maybe pick up a Liverpool player or two so as they might do an English requirement and a Liverpool one in separate squads.

Boulders8 · 20-06-2020 4:22pm

Got Kessie done, now back to the Mendy grind but a bit of a struggle as my French players are not the best.

Spent some time opening packs trying to net some high rated players to do the Perisic SBC - nothing spectacular but got TOTW’s Anderson Talisca 85 and Kolorov 86, McGuire OTW 86, Ter Stegen 90 and Giminez 85 to help with it

Found the 82-88 ones to be great value.. only 7 gold players required. Think I opened 3 of them last night.. 2x 85 and 1x 83. Could easily craft Perisic and others by rinsing into that SBC.

Yep been doing that. Still have over 80 packs to open so doing them and dumping any duplicates or low rated players into the 82-88 and the 81+ one. Mind you I got TOTW Talisca and 90 Ter Stegen from a two rare pack

Calvin · 20-06-2020 5:31pm

Just checked my fodder in club too... Gnabry going for 16k, Sancho for 17k and Higuain for 22k. Mad prices. Higuain was only 12k a day or two ago!

Higuain’s IF is only 2k dearer, obviously the base is out of packs now but people so blindly follow futbin solutions that they pay that for the base gold rather than using the 86 and allowing themselves lower rated cards elsewhere
