With the recent Monday content drop & FC 25 leaks, the One Nation Cups offer a simple and enjoyable way to earn rewards, especially with Golden Goal rules in effect. Completing almost all the games pas week allowed a fast track through the objectives, and we’re ready to open these packs on the stream. Packs up for grabs include 84 Double, 81 Double, 83 Double, 823, 813, and the 835 packs. The whole process, including nine wins and a mix of gold and goal victories, took about an hour. This mode operates on an ELO basis, so matches aren’t tied to division but to player skill. Popular teams include France, Spain, Brazil, and even an interesting German squad. The One Nation Cup is not only a fun way to play but an efficient way to earn packs.
Several cards, like the Konate card, have surged in price due to increased demand from this objective. For example, Konate jumped from 1,000 to 2,800 coins. This objective is a great opportunity to utilize cheap cards from popular nations.
SBC Section: Upgrade Packs and Player Showdowns
In the SBC section, the 78 Double Upgrade was introduced, though it hasn’t proven particularly rewarding this year. A set of 10 opened yesterday yielded no cards above 83, making it more efficient to complete a regular Gold Upgrade over the 78 Double. These upgrade packs could still be a good option to clear out some duplicate or untradeable cards in storage.
Yesterday also marked the first Showdown release of FC 25 with players Ugarte and Caicedo, costing around 45,000 coins each, with a five-squad requirement. Each player needs squads of 80, 81, 82, and 83 ratings, making them relatively affordable. While these cards may not be the best in the game, they offer the excitement of potential upgrades. A win gives a +2 to the player’s rating, while a draw yields a +1 to each. These Showdown cards, which showcase unique playstyles like Tiki Taka, Pinged Pass, and Relentless, offer an affordable option with the added benefit of potential evolution.
FC 25 Leaks and the Upcoming Season 2
Yesterday’s main news surrounded FC 25 leaks and the Ballon d’Or announcement, generating excitement in the community. While no special cards were released, a concept post of cards for Ballon d’Or winners like Rodri, Bonmatí, and Yamal stirred up anticipation. The FC 25 leaks also highlighted evolving market trends, with some high-demand cards rebounding after Monday’s dip, such as Gabriel Jesus and Kvicha Kvaratskhelia.
For cards experiencing dips, like icons and heroes, this Panic trend allows traders to buy in at low points and sell after rebounds. For example, yesterday’s Michael Owen purchase at 300,000 coins quickly rose to 330,000, illustrating the potential for profit in this market cycle.
Season 2 Speculation: France or Serie A-Themed Content?
With FC 25 leaks hinting at a France or Serie A-themed season, players are anticipating new content related to these leagues and nations. For instance, with Adama Traoré in the World Tour, rumors suggest France may be the next theme. French players are already popular, with icons like Tchouaméni and Coco expected to remain high in demand, especially with the season bringing more French and Serie A players into focus.
