Two recent elements of FC 24 have left many scratching their heads: SBCs and evolutions. The frustration continues as certain aspects of the game feel lacking. The Futties promo last year was in full hype towards the end of July. Surprisingly, in FC 24, especially with the Futties content, EA is doubling down on releasing meta cards back-to-back. Instead, new average SBCs have been popping up as craft challenges, and it seems like the good ones are being saved for future weeks. With FC 24 reaching endgame, it’s only rational for EA to ensure players get to play with the best players for at least 2 months instead of saving them for September. We’ll look into this and more in this article, so keep reading.
FC 24 Content Being Held back?
Prepare for investment opportunities, particularly with Team of the Season cards. SBCs are refreshing, leading to price drops as cards get supplied. Let’s cover potential content and more.
The standout SBC of the day was the 94+ Tuesday Gamble Pack SBC. This time, it featured a one-of-four pick, an upgrade from the previous one-of-three. It required an 88 and an 89 rated squad with one Team of the Season player. It’s easy, cheap, and offers high rewards, such as the rare chance of packing an extinct Mbappe Real Madrid card, De Bruyne, or Bellingham.
FC 24 Evolution SBC
There was excitement for a Belgium player SBC, hoping for a Kompany card. Instead, an Openda card was released, which didn’t make sense given recent releases like Timo Werner. This Openda SBC, although cheap, felt redundant and didn’t add much value. This year’s trend is similar to FIFA 23. Initial futties cards and SBCs were underwhelming, but eventually, high-profile cards like Zidane and Ronaldinho were released. We’re currently in the slow phase, hoping for more exciting content soon.
Evolution Challenges
The Founders Evolutions have been disappointing. After the initial free Evo, subsequent upgrades haven’t lived up to expectations. Many can’t even use their evolved players due to limited upgrade opportunities. This concept needs improvement for FC 25, potentially offering more frequent and meaningful upgrades. Despite a good menu grind and crafting opportunities, there’s a yearning for more significant players worth grinding for. The Founders Evo system needs more upgrades and better boosts, like skill moves and weak foot improvements.
SBC Investment Insights
Today is a big day for Team of the Season investments, as SBCs refresh and prices drop. The 90+ TOTS upgrade and 81+ Team of the Week upgrade will provide easy coins. Watch for low prices to invest wisely. Check 84s and 85s as they fluctuate due to SBC demand. Some specific cards like Barardi and Declan Rice have seen significant price increases, offering short-term flipping opportunities.
Futies Card Investment
Avoid investing in Futties Team 2 cards today. Wait until prices stabilize, potentially after today’s content drop and tomorrow’s updates. Expect guaranteed pack days and a potential refresh of the 93+ Greatest of the Game Futties Team 1 upgrade. Watch for SBC leaks for an idea of upcoming content.
Team of the Week cards will likely be needed in future weeks, even with their high weight in packs. Hence, if players can access cards below 25k coins, it will always be worth a profit while trading next month
