Fut birthday griezmann is a great card, congrats!!

The 5 x 88+ isn’t repeatable, we could only do it once but I suspect we might see it return before end of the week.

Oh thank god for that.

Cheers, just have to fit him in now as I was happy with a pl team halfway through objectives for Bruno fernandes but will see now what the next step is !

Hogey007 · 06-07-2020 11:05am

Lads with all golds going for at least 1k it’s worth opening some 5k gold packs with coins.
You’ll get at least 3 player cards so should be 3k back straight away. Plus you can get the chem styles etc.

I’ve opened about 4, got a hunter chem in one (8k) and got a 88 rated Dani olmo in another.

If you get absolutely nothing of note you should only be down about 1.5k

ah the pack i got wasnt the worst, just annoying that i used ndombele(fck him anyways) in the sbc and didnt get any card that fits the team to try out.

Mr Moon · 06-07-2020 11:32am

Got to 17 with 4 games remaining.

Will build a team around Dembele and Ribery as I was only using them as subs. Fun to play with.

Actually tempted by the 35k mega packs with the pack weight right now. Opened a few I had sitting there last night and was getting 3-4 TOTW/Special cards (none crazy high rated) per pack

Calvin · 06-07-2020 12:58pm

My club is rinsed now of cards <80 rated :pac: might start going into the silver upgrades for the 3 non rare golds.

Mr Moon · 06-07-2020 1:11pm

I might have to sell CR7s tots card. I can't justify the 4million considering Dembele and Ribery are better than him. I hate in this game that if a player doesn't have a 5*WF he's basically useless.

So Ronaldo TotS is now 'basically useless'. Wash your mouth out lol

BrentMused · 06-07-2020 4:38pm

So this is where I'm currently at around a month in:

I'll try Sancho out (packed him in the 5 x 88 this morning) but I've got Kubo for RM anyway.

I might try and do the Mendy objectives now. He'd be a big upgrade but apart from that realistically I don't think I could improve a whole lot on it.

I've rinsed through my club with the SBC's and did a lot of wheeling and dealing so have very little left, so I feel that's me just about done and dusted tinkering with the team and I'll put my full focus on improving my online play now with a view to getting off to a quick start for FIFA 21.

Just gave it a try I made 36k in 2 hours opening 5k packs, most times you break even or make a small loss/gain and every few packs you hit a shadow/hunter or low rated inform.
The best card I hit was cavanni, 1 tip is to stay away from the 7.5k packs I made a loss on every one of them I opened

Hogey007 · 06-07-2020 8:53pm

Bizarrely ea added a daily sbc, bundesliga challenge, costs 45k to complete cos of the 85 chem, you get 2 x 83+ players.

The 2x84+ Repeatable sbc costs 24k from scratch.

BrentMused · 06-07-2020 9:03pm

Jesus that RTTF Lloris card I packed is absolutely insane!

He’s bailing me out game after game in Rivals! :pac:

Got 86 Zapata TOTW from that one, would have been ok apart from fact I got him in a 85-92 pack 2 openings before

So far done 4 82-92 packs today and other than Zapata also got Iago Aspas (Ultimate Scream) and 85 Tadic (TOTYN) which is the third time I’ve got him in last few days and FUT Birthday Havertz so given he’s got the 5*WF can put his POTM card into something else

Did the 88 5+ guarantee and ended up with

91 Modric (TOTYN)
90 Ilicic (TOTW Moments)
90 Martinelli (Future Stars)
89 Hudson-Odoi (Future Stars)
88 Bernado Silva (TOTYN)

Not brilliant as already have Modric’s Flashback care. Ilicic is up against Ronaldo, Ibra, Dybala, Imobile, and Zapata so not much use to me.

Martinelli and Hudson-Odio might be useful as LM isn’t a strength in my Prem team and Silva’s main use will be providing links to Ronaldo

Will probably do a fair few more of these 85-92 packs - more fun than playing the game

Adamcp898 · 06-07-2020 9:50pm

That 95 Vinicius Jr card though......two 85 squads is actually cheap when you compare it to Dembele and could be lots of fun

Calvin · 07-07-2020 12:10am

Duplicate FFS Tielemans from the Bundesliga daily sbc.. threw him into Dembele and that’s one part complete. Played my first game of rivals since last Thursday... first fella has Ribery, Dembele, HL Neymar. Thought Ribery wasn’t anything special, but Dembele. Man, at times he’s unmarkable.

Neymar being Neymar, so might see if I can get his TOTS.. it’s dropping already, so might be able to if it keeps going down.

I came against a guy with Dembele as CAM and he was just waltzing through my team.
Looks amazing and his shooting was excellent.
Very tempted to throw in Fernandes etc as he seems to have gone off the boil.
Prime Kaka is actually performing way better at CAM for me than Fernandes is.
I find Kaka controls a game and drives your strikers on etc but Fernandes I find is very much the opposite. Great at scoring goals etc and delivering the passes but due to his height cannot hold off players and deliver that killer pass for your other players to score which Kaka can do,

Yeah got to play 3 games with dembele and he’s something else! Had his rttf earlier in fifa for ages and forget how enjoyable he is to use.

7 goals and 3 assists in 3 games in rivals (although one opponent was chronic)

I always take short corners and first one with dembele I got him to the edge of the box (the angle), took a finesse shot, off the upright, second time it arrows into the top corner!

Boulders8 · 07-07-2020 8:12am

Finally managed to complete Mendy last night - thanks to Hoey for the Ben Yedder tip - two finesse goals from him did the trick in the end.

Also managed to get storyline Matuidi done and collected enough players to finish Vinicius Jnr as well.....now to get back to those 85-92 packs

doing the 7.5 packs made about 180k so far since yesterday. you can go on a losing streak but more likely to pack a big card if opening lots. lost a bundle on the mega packs tho

Jim Gazebo · 07-07-2020 10:06am

85-92 packs are superb . Rewards get a bit funny after a while, I got a lot of centre backs but I'm so close to another icon SBC . One or two more of the 85-92. For once, something the player with not much in their club can improve it easily. My team has transformed.

Mr Moon · 07-07-2020 10:47am

Spent about 100k on 5k packs. Came out about even if I'd sold the stuff I didn't already have. Only got 2 special cards and 1 board.

Sold Ronaldo and bought SS Ronaldo, lets see how that left foot works out.

I did the same but made 50k profit, I got a shadow, hunter and 3 discard informs but every player I packed sold for 950 or more and I checked every one on futbin.

I found it very time consuming.

Mr Moon · 07-07-2020 11:10am

The special search feature has been added to the game but not enabled yet, there was a 4.5gb update this morning.

Yeah I do wonder if EA buff new special cards so more people try to get them, then quietly debuff them to make way for the next “special” card

R00ster · 07-07-2020 5:06pm

Two games in a row now I've got DC'd when well ahead in injury time when I had a mendy assist. Massively frustrating, objective is enough of a grind as it is.

Jim Gazebo · 07-07-2020 5:12pm

I wonder does it just get made harder when you need objectives. I wasn't even bothered by the pope one but I realised I was one English goal with a win away this morning. I've lost 5 rivals games in a row by one goal after dominating. I've now realised I can do it in squad battles so I'm off to finish it but you'd nearly smash the controller. Balls off posts, arms and legs but just wouldn't hit the net.

If it gives you the option to complete objectives via Squad Battles, I always take it rather than doing it in Rivals. It takes a bit longer but at least you get to finish games and you can just cycle through and find the weakest opponents

Yep I didn't realise it. It was unreal though, I've never had it like that before. Was very strange but these things happen I suppose ðŸ€£

Calvin · 07-07-2020 5:17pm

Just realised there that this morning when doing the silver upgrades, I rinsed my silvers into the one that gave 3 common golds instead of the one that gives 4 :pac: created about 14 packs from all my untradeable silvers too ffs.

Probably seems harder as you’re trying for it rather than letting it happen naturally. I find that sometimes especially with ones like when you need a defender assist and half the time I got it without realising. Was finishing the Mendy one last night and trying long shots with Ben Yedder all over the shop and luckily two went in

The 88 Guarantee SBC is back and also Summer Heat voting SBC which guarantees an 86+

Jim Gazebo · 07-07-2020 6:25pm

Poor return this time from the 88+. Neuer TOTW 90, Lloris 90(not sure on type of card) , Casemiro 88, busquets base, pique base...Lloris the only one I would probably use.

Knew that 5 x 88+ Would be back.

Got 90 lloris from 86+

He was a duplicate so straight into the 88 sbc

Got 95 kdb, fb Douglas costa, partey, Cavani, 90 lloris again

Not bad except I already have tots 99 kdb untradeable and costa and lloris are untradeable duplicates.

Nice problems to have I suppose

Osmosis Jones · 07-07-2020 6:34pm

Better than the last one

Calvin · 07-07-2020 7:02pm

I’ve decided I’m gonna be patient with this one and wait for TOTS re-release batch :pac:

Lord TSC · 07-07-2020 7:04pm

I don't feel I've done great with the 5k packs today.

BUT I started with 410k this morning, bought a 45k pack, and am currently on 435k with 40 items in my TP. It FEELS like I've not done well, but I'm obviously churning through them ok. I presume that the packs where I get 5 or 6 players are way outweighing packs I only get about 3 or 4.

Lord TSC · 07-07-2020 8:58pm

Boulders8 · 07-07-2020 8:59pm

Got Duplicate Vertongen TOTYN from the 86+ Summer Heat pack.

Done 4 more 85-92s today so far.
85 Aarons FFS
88 Hummels TOTYN
86 Giminez TOTWM
90 Lloris UCLRTTF.

Really wish this 82-95 thing was just one team instead of 2 - would cut down on the time doing them

BrentMused · 07-07-2020 9:11pm

Made about 40,000 in minutes using the gold pack method suggested here so thanks for that.

Opened a few packs and ended up with TOTW Ruben Blanco who goes for just under 20,000. Next pack I got ELRTTF Wendell who goes for 11,500.

Got a shadow in the next which went for around 12,500 IIRC.

Great pack luck tonight!

Then finally fodder in the next but with the likes of Matic who goes for 2,300 and Jony for 2,700.

I’ll keep ploughing coins into it as I do find it fun opening the packs and my team is set so why not?

Hogey007 · 07-07-2020 9:20pm

Someone mentioned here yesterday they found the upgrade packs more fun than actually playing.

Have to say I agree!

Played 3 rivals games today, won 2 drew 1 but the gameplay is terrible, I think a lot of it like the button delay we’ve just learned to live with but it’s crazy.

Think I’m more into the card collecting now than actually playing

That was me and I’m still doing it today although down to my last 5 actual packs but i keep thinking I’ll do one more 85-92 pack in the hope of hitting something better than the last one....in fact I’ll think I’ll go and do another one now

Adamcp898 · 07-07-2020 9:37pm

Did the second 88+ pack. Got 92 Oblak and 88 Partey like I did in the first one. lol EA.

92 Kane, 89 D Silva, 88 Luis Alberto rounds it out.
