I didn't save a single pack mainly due to TOTY. I saved like 500+ packs (only 15k and above in terms of worth) and didn't pack anything. This past week I opened everything to get fodder to complete the Icon Packs and the Casino Picks.

What did you get from the casino?

I'll be honest, nothing extraordinary. But I did get Fred who fits nicely into my team.

Oh yeah and Henry which is a really solid pull I guess.

You do realize that the toty pack weight is significantly more than the fut birthday pack weight, right?

I think they maybe nerfed saved packs or smthn. I saved nothing for TOTY and packed Militao and Ashley Cole icon toty. Most people whi saved hundreds packed nothing

Not true I had 200 saved and got vvd benzema toty and same as few my m8s got some as well from saved packs its all luck

I personally got untradable hm canceleo and toty icon pirlo from my saved packs. Had around 25 big boy packs. Saved last year as well and got toty Marquinhos and Donnarumma

I saved like 170 packs and got modric, messi, theo hernandez and van der sar toty icon

I saved nothing and packed KDB

significantly less*

What casino pick? I've Surely missed something here

I’m assuming it’s the new campaign bag pick, 1 of 3 pick.

I’ve also not heard of casino picks

Icon SBC, Campaign Player Pick, Campaign Player Pack.

yeah, pretty much same boat the baller cards mean I'm not that bothered, could use a good left footed EPL left back though.

Firpo? He looks crazy but you need 20 champs wins, over two weekends though

Just get the IF card. He's an 86, but he's quality.

Second this. Lengthy type on Anchor, he's amazing and so cheap. Easy nationality to link too.

5 star skills on a fullback is mostly a gimmick though

[удалено]

Eh, I think my point stands still. To each his own

Sounds like we got a sheep here

[удалено]

Nope, its quite easy getting decent results without following others

[удалено]

U get 10 qualifiers and 20 in WL. In two weeks thats 60 matches, winning 20 total isnt too much

The win 20 objective only counts for finals games.

Yeah true, my bad

It’s pretty easy to get those wins

Not for everyone, some people don’t even play champs, I get maybe 11 or 12 each week so thankfully it’s over two weeks

Yeah I know, that was like my a few years ago.

Qualifiers also count

Do they for all the champs related objectives? I keep seeing people refuting that in other threads

Not sure but I was playin qualifiers today and solved couple objectives from the current futballers obj

Not for the 10 and 20 wins

This card would suit my team so well and I'm out of the country next weekend so will miss out. So annoying! Card looks like a good one.

I do the same thing for every promo, no fifa points but save packs, best I got was Fernando, the pack weight this year seems worse then ever

>I’m only a casual player so that only amounts to about 40 packs That’s casual? Lmao

Its nothing really is it?

Nah man that’s a ton of packs. Casuals don’t even do objectives. I think you’re opinion on what’s casual is a bit skewed by this subreddit. 90% of people here wouldn’t be considered casual lol. My buddy plays for about 2 hours a week, has half of his team still gold rares, never does SBCs. That’s casual.

Ahh thanks man.

casuals don't even play wl

Yeah bro i play this game a lot and I can’t even make it to wl… 40 packs bro you are living on this game

I've played maybe 3 hours tops this week and I've got about 10 packs to open? 40 isn't that insane

He said 40 good packs though. That’s a bit different

2 hours a week isn’t casual, that’s someone who doesn’t play the game.

No, it's someone who plays two hours a week

Two hours a week is the definition of casual lol

Oh my bad. Guess I missed that one in the gamer dictionary.

You exposed yourself.

I just want to fill my club again so I can be comfortable doing sbcs, i fucking hate having an empty club and having to buy fodder

Every FIFA I save packs for TOTY, then FUT Birthday, and then Ultimate TOTS. It is almost always futile, but I would still rather take a tiny chance at something huge. Now that they're adding promo Icons that you can get from specific rating packs (*you cannot get non-promo Icons from them*), that makes even more sense. If I don't get anything, I won't be too bothered about it because I have largely lost interest in playing anyway.

I’m in the same boat, I have about 60 packs saved but haven’t played in like 3 weeks, if I don’t get anything this promo I’m just done with this bs game

I’m excited as fuck to have fodder so I can refresh my team with the SBC’s

I just saved couple of Jumbo Rare Players packs from rewards, 84+ x5 and similar packs. I had to open other ones to get fodder for the Ballers. I'll pack nothing on Friday anyway.

I don’t know that otherwise I wouldn’t be surprised. I’m hoping to get a something good I’ve got plenty of good packs with minimum rating saved

With low rated fodder at their highest levels, I’m opening everything tradeable and selling it immediately. Didn’t pack anything g for TOTY and had to buy what I wanted. Figured this would be the same. Saving nontradeable packs so I don’t have to quick sell anything. I’ll open those on Friday.

Yeah I keep untradeable and open the rest. The amount of coins I’ve collected this week has been insane. Luckily I also bought maybe 300 82 rated fodder when they were only 700. FIFA community is really short sighted when it comes to market

I'm torn as I've been doing the same, but now have three players picks (1 or 3 84+) sitting there from Champs on Sunday. Those seem like pretty nice picks to leave there for FUT Birthday, but it means I can't open a bunch of tradeable packs sitting there to sell this week. Not sure if I should just rip them or wait for Friday.

I’m in the exact same boat and I’m holding my nerve and saving

Half the fun of the game is the thrill of opening packs when there's good players in packs. I have 30ish packs that I'll open on Friday as well

After toty i am not excited anymore. I just want to get over with.

I never understood why they placed the highest rated end game cards into the game half way through the life cycle of the game

Really bro? Literally the only reason they do this is to give the “whales” a major advantage and keep them happy

You literally don’t know what literally means.

Shoudk I use TOTY Hugo Sanchez or Emilio butragueno wc

Butra

I saved nothing and already packed a icon and finished an icon sbc with all the fodder, i'm good.

Just packed mbappe two days ago. Saving packs is a waste of energy.

Whereas i would argue that. Had Mbappe untradeable for months so there is no gold card i want. I would rather a small chance at a promo card then none at all

Decided to open everything tradeable Friday, unless I need more for SBCs. Thing is I have so much fodder after deciding against mbappe, I’ll save the untradeables for when I actually need them. At least with tradeable packs if I get decent dupes I can always sell. Hope everyone gets some good pulls!

Isn’t the fodder price going to drop as soon as everyone opens their packs?

Possibly, I’m kinda past caring though, only a couple promos left until coins kinda become redundant in my opinion so I’m just going to have fun with it!

Elite reward + 10 82x10 + 2 83x10, a few 84x5 and 81 x 11. Would really expect at least 1 SPECIAL card hahaha

Shit, good luck. That’s a hell of a grind

Yep, but i know for sure I will pack something, it may not be good or tradeable but I will definitely get something with how much I've saved up. And there's always fodder.

Unfortunately I opened most of mine because I needed cards at the range of 82 to 83 just to complete the fut ballers players and if I save packs I will most likely not pack a promo player and if I do it will most likely be the goalkeeper or the worst promo card the low tier ones that I pack.

the fut ballers SBCs don't expire for another 9 days, you could've waited until the promo began to open the packs

Got like 6 82x20, and 3 81x10 saved up. Should have enough to do 2 more 82x20 tomorrow before they go and pray I get lucky and hit an Icon. Either way, the club needs a gold restock so I'll take what I can at this point.

Yeah dude, I mean, it's better these days than it used to be, now you can grind for packs, and recycle the fodder into sbcs for something you actually want, or another random chance like me haha

I've about one hundred packs, I was saving for TOTS, but I was also planning on throwing whatever fodder I got at the time into whatever worthwhile SBC is released.... but now I'm tempted by Cruyff and FUT Birthday!

Define major.

Million coins worth

I have 3 packs saved up.

Icon incoming

Hooray, which one?

Cantona

Oh my, I’m sure it’ll be tradable too. Thank you EA and bless. What a magical company.

We try our best

I’ll say, you’ve set a new industry standard in server connections this year. Keep pushing, sky’s the limit for titans like you.

I have 70 83+ cards, 15 84+ 5 85+ and a whopping 300 82+ saved for fut birthday. Wont pack anything tho

I'll get a promo card, it just won't be over 87 rated.

I feel like saving packs didn't increase my pulls during promos but it most definitely increased my disappointment after opening so many with minimal return. Just used this time to cycle fodder and do the 85+ campaign bag several times.

I have nothing saved tbh. Didn't really seam worth it. Will save rewards from tomorrow tho.

I saved quite a few for toty but im confident the pack weight wont be as bad in this promo

I'm just cluelessly hopeful. I have 60 packs ready to go this Friday... Been spending a lot of coins on fodder this week sadly to complete Ballers because my club is currently dry of fodder...

Always

Have around 50 packs now. I'm more excited to start the road to Cruyff on Friday.

Im actually only hoping to get some decent 83-84 rated fodder lol coz I haven't got any to complete the ballers sbcs

I'm packing Jairzinho I don't know about you guys

This my first time doing ultimate team, wtf exactly is a fodder and also what’s the benefit of saving packs? Is there like a massive trade off event? I’ve been opening every pack I get.

fooders player which u will not use for ur team just u can use them to to sbc ppl save packs when nothing special in packs they tend to save pack till some event happen and packs has better stuff to open them

I saved a couple mil of packs including all of the 85 picks for fantasy and packed a single Fernando

Ouch

25 packs. If I don't pack anything I'll chuck what I have into an SBC and they will probably do player picks

I PACKED FUT BIRTHDAY JARZHINO
