Got fut birthday Williams from the 2 rare player pack from the daily sbc thing

Might lean towards the Messi sbc now, wasn’t sure between that and mbappe.

Used Williams in a few games this morning he is very good. Takes a bit of getting used to because its not often you get a striker with 96 pace but is 6ft1 and got 96 jumping and thats all before you mention his 5 star skill moves

Put 200k into the 81+ upgrade. Made 440k in fodder. I hope we can get a sexy ICON SBC again.

hots · 29-03-2021 02:35PM

Jesus these 81+s have been brutal for me, think I've done 10 with only 1 over 83.

Same as, waste of time

That 79 rated Serie A TOTW GK Montipo looks a great investment to me.

Going for 13.25k now, Italian so decent links and those type of players were instantly selling for 30k when the last Party Bag dropped.

There's probably a bit more supply now but I still would expect cards like that to hit 25k+ as soon as another Party Bag SBC or something similar appears?

Is there some tell for which way you are sending a penalty, apart from head movement before you power up the shot? Literally every penalty I take is saved. There is no way everyone has guessed correctly like 11 times in a row?

Found the trick to this (some of the opponents definitely did this), and the others just randomly guessed correctly.

Don't know if everyone is aware, but I definitely had no idea about it. If you step to one side just before the penalty taker is about to kick, and then dive to the other side, it covers both middle and the side you dive to.

The only time it doesn't cover the side you dive to is if the opponent puts it right in the corner with green timing & perfect power.

So you can dramatically increase your chances of saving a pen by covering both a side and the middle.

This is a great tip especially if the other player is taking a quick pen. You can be assured he is not aiming in a Corner and more then 50 percent of time its down the middle.

My approach to taking pens is take it as quick as possible and put it in the corner. :pac:

Neymar's unique run-up gives you just enough time to aim it properly.

Saving them is a total lottery for me anyway and I generally go mid. The sidestep one way and dive the other direction doesn't save the middle shot if it's slow, high or panenka'd. So many people look one way and slot it middle or opposite too.

Brasilvers objective... what a throwback to simpler times with my Brasilver skillers.

29-03-2021 06:30PM

Squad battles up to 6 wins what a dose

Been using a brasilver team for all my silver objectives. Also MM is 79 overall now if ppl, like me, didn't notice

racso1975 · 29-03-2021 06:51PM

I like that vidal card. Pricey SBC though. What are peoples thoughts on it. Currently working out at about 525k!

Lord TSC · 29-03-2021 06:59PM

6 long range goals (in seperate matches) in the Bundesliga set :rolleyes:

Great if you want to run an Italian league team, but Chile gives him limited linking options outside that. Also pace isn't good enough to run him off chem.

500k goes a long way in the market these days. I would wait to see what the other SBC are going to offer before rushing to do him.

v3ttel · 29-03-2021 07:10PM

Vidal looks like an incredible card. At that price, he's a must do IMHO. The Brasilvers are great content too.

Though the icon swaps are a disaster. That's minimum 78 games unless I've added it up incorrectly, and that's if you combine silvers & brazil/argentina. Even with golden goal, feels like way too much effort for the reward. A lot of people will drop the controller once they get an objective, rather than quit making it slower than it could be.

Huntelaar is perfect for this!

Osmosis Jones · 29-03-2021 07:25PM

Way too much work for Swaps when the top rewards are:

A pack that likely contains a bad Prime Icon

or

PIM Baggio, the PIM with the lowest Stamina of all 101 in the game.

Lord TSC · 29-03-2021 07:42PM

Five PL wins with finesse goals done.

Only to realise I didn’t need to do them in MM

jayo26 · 29-03-2021 09:06PM

Did another 10 of them 81 picks and got walker, busquets, kane and birthday sambia. They been good to me.

Hogey007 · 29-03-2021 09:49PM

Jeez that bundes outside the box requirement was sneaky sneaky of them.

Also, as 2 of the 18 tokens required wl wins they’ve removed baggio as an option for the more casual player that doesn’t want to play weekend league.

I have 2 more squad battles matches with a silver argie team left to get my prime icon pack.

I have 3 prime icons already, sol Campbell, keane and koeman, what’s the bets I get 1 of them, or some one crap like nakata

Just knew it, all that effort and I get 60k off the next sbc I do

Lord TSC · 29-03-2021 10:18PM

While I'd be furious if that happened me, you have to admit that's low key hilarious...

I've packed Busquets from 3 of 5 player picks tonight. There's 100% something in the code that once you pack a player once, you're more likely to pack him again in the future.

Calvin · 29-03-2021 10:21PM

Tempted to do that Vidal... looks a very solid card. But it’d be a struggle to fit him in alongside Huntelaar, Jones, Klaiber, Varane etc. but I do have OTW Hakimi to strong link him.

Haha yeah I’m not taking this fifa overly serious, it’s something to do during lockdown, that’s it.

So I actually laughed when I seen Campbell, I wasn’t expecting anyone too good but outside hoping for a George Best or Cantona.

I did him there cause I had a dupe VVD, a bundle of Busquets and a few other high rated fodder players. Only had to spend 20k to do him.

He looks insane. On basic chemistry, he's a minimum of 91 rated in every. single. position. 85 pace the only state below 90.

If he was an icon, he'd be 6 times more expensive. I've been looking at Prime Keane thinking I needed to upgrade him, and Vidal looks perfect.

Just so awkward fitting him in, fut birthday periscic is strong link to him though

Let me know how he is... think I should have enough fodder to do him without having to buy too many players.

Been slowly going insane tonight trying to do the longshots for the Bundesliga swap. Finally got the longshots done after 1hr30 and about 20 odd games. The amount of times I hit the crossbar is insane.

I swear if I get a duplicate Prime Pele I'll cry!!

charolais0153 · 30-03-2021 12:25AM

9 player picks, 1x 82, 4x 83, 3x 84 , 1x 85
All gold commons gone into them , decent fodder
