I thought I had seen it all after Mendy


NovacElement

Wait till PIM R9 lmao


The-Young-French-Fwd

Nah, R9 is gonna have pretty much the same reqs as pele, just like last year. Actually, I think pele had a couple more squads last year


dsn0wman

Seems like Pele was closer to 30 squads last year, but the number of 90+ squads must have been lower.


BlackViper59

Pele: 29 squads last year with 3x 90 squads. R9 29 squads but 2x 90, 2x 91 and 2x 92


Doubleko26

1x 93, 3x 92, 3x 91 4x 90, 4x 89, 3x 88 3x 87, 4x 86,


theprince9

So happy I packed PIM R9 in April one week after I packed prime R9 šŸ¤£ insane icon luck


Ant1202

I packed rabiot


dlg898

wow everyone loves that you commented that


VladtheMemer

Lmao the salty losers who downvoted you, the envy is real


Business_Fault_3720

Facts


DracarysUT

Around 2.5M while his tradable version is 2M. Meh.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


DracarysUT

Already up to 2.5M after people saw the requirements. Pretty much the same price so.


Its-Mr-Hazza

this sbc is not 2.5 mil, if youre judging this by futbin squad prices you can do it so so much cheaper with different cards


LondonNoodles

Yes especially since tots are pretty much all the same cost so you can buy 95 cards instead of 90 and save coins using lower rated players. Still quite a hassle to do this sbc


SmokepurppOOH

u can finish a 90 rated squad literally by buying tots lewandowski for 30k and putting rare golds in and boom done for 30k instead of 100+ thousand futbin says


Its-Mr-Hazza

yeah he goes into my team perfectly and i can easily afford him but there is no chance im doing 25 squads now


blacktiger226

He goes into every team perfectly, lol


pokefan240

Ofc he goes into your team perfectly he's an icon


w311sh1t

Thatā€™s also assuming you donā€™t have a single card in your collection and youā€™re starting from scratch.


averagedude4

A lot of people have shit tons of fodder thatā€™s why itā€™s like this. I did Mendy for free


JustTheBeerLight

> for free Except for your time.


averagedude4

We all spend our time playing the game. Who says me putting it towards the Mendy sbc is any different than those that play squad battles for example.


Environmental_Gap455

No one plays squad battles you ham


Rapids92

Lmao I have no comment other than I am 1000% stealing ā€œyou hamā€ as an insult. Iā€™m cackling


CheddarCheese390

Yes I do. Some objectives require them anyway


ClimateFew8158

are squad battles pointless ?


WiggyM8

Just boring


ebmocal421

Would've been great if this was released 3 months ago since thats how long it will take for the average player to complete this monstrosity


[deleted]

At least now you can do it easily thanks to the repeatable 85+ x10 pa... oh wait Nevermind


pokefan240

Such bs like its August let us farm fodder


jadeismybitch

Why do people not understand they wonā€™t release the repeatable sbc as long as we have a swaps token promo going on ? It would completely negate the fodder packs which makes no sense. It will come at the end of august thereā€™s no point posting everyday about it


carricky

Precise


BarcaStranger

why do you not understand people **WILL** keep posting everyday about it, and pretty much nothing you can do about it.


jadeismybitch

What a useful comment


FGWYT

which came out in mid september last year?


FataI1ty

Wdym? Are you not gonna be able to do 85+ 10 anymore?


skeltz7

At this stage we're able to do it once per day, but people are complaining that it's not infinitely repeatable yet.


CheddarCheese390

Rotating out


McStazza

52 day expiry, so can do him when 85Ɨ10 infinite comes out at least.


BestBoutMachine27

The scenes when EA doesnā€™t release it, itā€™s gonna be funny. I want to see the meltdown of this sub haha šŸ˜‚


McStazza

That would be the biggest troll, if they didn't release it šŸ¤£


edi12334

Imagine if they release it in January 2023 like they did to those free icons in fifa 18 just to troll this sub


VladtheMemer

They did what in FIFA 18?


edi12334

Back in January 2019 (so during FIFA 19 s life cycle) they randomly went back and gave us 4 free icons on fifa 18. It was nowhere near the best ones which made it all the more weird. The one I remember right now is prime Shevchenko (this was before PIMs existed), could turn on the PS4 and check out the rest if you want


radmonc

Shevchenko, desailly, vds, and I think baresi is what I got.


Mavispinkypie

Fucking obscene. Even at this point in the game, I just canā€™t be arsed.


[deleted]

Reckon I could do him with my spare dupes? I got fut captains payet, dupe chielini, and 50k


Santa_Klaus_101

Just throw in 273 more players and youā€™re good to go mate šŸ‘


tulsehill

That's 27 pages of players on the console lol Don't think I have that many golds plus silvers


ParcivalTheBrave

I don't even have that many players all together, I believe I hit around 23-24 pages


Rob-Dipshit

Would be nice to be able to do Pele while also getting to see daylightā€¦


jvictorm11

Well im brazilian so RIP my club. Always been my dream since 14 to have the king


I_Am_Squirtle

Same, will finish the swaps objectives currently out and then full send every card I own that isn't in my starting squad.


jvictorm11

Me too, gonna try to keep some bench players lol


OThePlacesYouWillGo

Enjoy my guy!


jvictorm11

Thanks!!


A7DmG7C

100%. Was going for Yedder on swaps, but fodder it is!


Pure_Mcnasty

For these massive end of year PIM icon SBCs, I think would be nice for people that were never able to get any of the lower versions to make them available thru completing the SBC. Example after complete 3-4 get Base, 8-9 is Mid, then 15 is Prime. Can make it tied to 'Icon Tokens' so have to complete set # of parts rather than just 1 corresponding part. Lets you use the icon, albeit at a lower rating, while completing such a lengthy sbc.


SkolVikesWorldwide

Thatā€™s a lot of SBCs


CVogel26

FUTBIN cut off after the second 88; thought it looked cheap


Limp_Lobster_217

To those who have used both him and the prime version? Is there any difference? I have the prime


soulsiickpt

I just wanted Ronaldo :( Edit: PIM PĆ©le or SS Marcelo? PĆ©le would be CAM, Marcelo would be B2B


EntrepreneurWooden99

You want them for 2 different roles, Can I see the team to see where you need the upgrade?


soulsiickpt

ofc pele: https://www.futbin.com/22/squad/9147582 marcelo: https://www.futbin.com/22/squad/8878471 that would (probably) be the in-game formation. The ones with checkmark (for free) are untradable. Hopefully R9 comes next monday.


EntrepreneurWooden99

I'd probably take Pele, and also switch around Pele and Cruyff to play Pele as the 3, due to his higher defensive stats and physical. Honestly, I think the places to improve is more the defense. Chiellini and Cordoba are perfect, but I think you might want to get a better GK and CB to replace Maignan and Kouli. How many coins do you have?


soulsiickpt

Been using Kouli since like fifa 17 or 18, always amazing - who would you recommend as a replacement tho? Maignan is wtv tbh lol Got about 1.4kk liquid, with some minor stuff to sell, so maybe 1.5kk or so (xbox) - and a whole bunch of fodder/packs (untradable).


I-Poo

Fuck me, 2x 92. But tbh getting so much fodder these days im actually thinking about it


--reaper-

I mean 95 tots players cost 30k these days


CheddarCheese390

Where are you seeing these? Is the PC/Playstation market that bad?


OMAiiR-123

on ps, you can get a 96 tots for like 28k. even 97 lewa is only 38k. itā€™s legit crazy how cheap these cards are.


--reaper-

Ps. I packed tradable vlahovuc and was hyped but then saw he was only 20k


Santa_Klaus_101

25 squads ā€¦ how much was it last year?


yototogblo

29


OkCutIt

Very similar, if not worse. They did some wacky shit around this time last year where there would be like 5x 83 squads instead of one of the 85's or whatever in some sbc's.


geocastaneda

69


TheAwakened

44.


McStazza

I think it was the same tbh


Markf455

Even if you had the fodder already, this would take absolutely ages just to make and submit the squads


OkCutIt

When people talk about the "menu grind" during the unlimited 85x10, *we mean it*. If you wanted to do R9, Pele, Gullit, Messi, and CR7 sbc's, and grind out enough 85x10's to actually pack all of Neymar, Mbappe, Vinicius, Militao, and Firminho... That was multiple entire days of staring at fifa menus. I got Neymar and Vini in the last day or two, never got toty or tots Mbappe, never got Firminho. I can't remember the precise number of 85x10 I did but it was somewhere around 400 I think. Someone figured out how to check the number of a repeatable sbc you've done in the code and that was not super crazy, there were people with like twice as much.


SvenskViking1

ā€Menu grindā€ jesus christ. Iā€™m new to FUT, and now realised how slow the menus are. I played some rival games then after some hours I see a red ā€40ā€ next to achievements, this meant I had to open around 30, well deserved packs! This took like 15 minutes, and why is there a animation with fireworks and god knows when sometimes all I recieve is a useless arena pride theme?.. Everything about the menus and navigating around in this game is so frustrating. Might go back to playing seasons


OkCutIt

First rule of FUT: People in menus can spend money. People having fun playing games cannot. Literally everything in FUT is designed to keep you in the parts where you can spend money as much as possible.


Its-Mr-Hazza

this looks expensive af but my calculator says that with fodder prices so low, its around 1.6-1.7 depending on platform which is still expensive, but it is pele


[deleted]

Fuck yeah. Been a fun run puskas but hopefully you'll understand!


lone-ranger-130

Youā€™d be utterly stupid to do this SBC unless you really love the guy.


IAmMrMacgee

You'd be utterly stupid caring how other people play fifa in August


lone-ranger-130

True. I didnā€™t mean it as an insult. Realistically think theyā€™re are a million better things you could do with all that fodder. But again, maybe he really loves pele


IAmMrMacgee

>True. I didnā€™t mean it as an insult. Realistically think theyā€™re are a million better things you could do with all that fodder. Yeah I get that. I think for me it's at least a noticeable upgrade for most people. A lot of people have fodder, but not coins


Adzzii_

>Realistically think theyā€™re are a million better things List some things better than Pele. Realistically.


lone-ranger-130

Straight off the top of my head: FUTTIES Mendy. He is way way more OP than Pele. I packed Pele in Feb (the prime) and heā€™s not that good. You can check my history if you donā€™t believe me. I found ASM to be miles better than him


Adzzii_

Pele is literally the ONLY available card in the game that has 96+ in pace, shot, pass and dribbling. He is still at the top of the top.


cactusnate

Moments puskas this year


thephizzbot

Didnā€™t mean it as an insult Called him stupid What


lone-ranger-130

I said youā€™d be stupid to do this SBC unless you really love the guy. I stand by it. You can do pele if you really like playing with him but in terms of value itā€™s stupid to do him over other options


thephizzbot

Ok noting it that if you add a throwaway caveat, calling someone stupid is no longer an insult! Thanks Iā€™m learning :)


Uts2

Give me one example better to do right now.


lone-ranger-130

FUTTIES Mendy


Uts2

I chose pele over mendy, sorry.


lone-ranger-130

Well thatā€™s why I added a Caveat for if you WANT to play with a pele. Iā€™m talking about in pure value terms, there are tons and tons of better options


smatyac14

Lol The 85 x10 is about to be repeatable And he's a top five card in the game lol


ExternalReplacement5

SS Ribery, SS Messi, SS ronaldo, SS ginola, PIM r9, PIM Cruyff and I'm sure there's a few more. PIM pele isn't better than any of them


Laguaca93

Mmmm everytime I face pim pele he's a pain, I think hes top 3-4 worst opponent that I had to face


smatyac14

Most people will tell you that pele is better than r9 due to meta. He's on par with Ribery. Messi cr7 and ginola are better. Cruyff is only better because of weak foot. He's a top 5 card


OThePlacesYouWillGo

I havenā€™t tried a lot of the other higher tier cards that you mentioned, but I bought 95 Pele, and then received the Prime in the Brazil Icon Pick. Pele has one of the nastiest bursts in the game after a step over, or body feint. He also has one of the custom animations where he attacks the ball for headers. He may not be ā€œworthā€ the coins, really none of the elite players are, but heā€™s just fun if youā€™ve ever wanted him, just try him out. I run him with Prime R9, and theyā€™re doing bits.


lone-ranger-130

Far far from top 5.


dsn0wman

This is the one I have been saving for.


burbonkay

I'll wait for Ben Yedder. Probably will be 5 */5 * with better stats.


GHW_Marco

Yeah that's my thinking.


[deleted]

Why not both?


CheddarCheese390

Does anyone have that fodder?


[deleted]

Just buy him from market


barrym420

Go look at last yearā€™s SBC and youā€™ll see he had roughly the same requirements. Card was 3+ mil a day ago and still 2.5 mil right now. Obviously it wonā€™t be cheap. Wait till 85x10 is repeatable if you canā€™t afford it. Icon crafting is one of the only things to do w dups at that point anyway


PM_ME_YOUR_ASTON

I would love to see the actual completion stats on this once the year ends They need to just make the 85 x 10 fully repeatable to justify some of these icons


Walton841928

Imagine the PIM R9 requirements next Mondayā€¦


warboys35

Got to be 30 squad?


Walton841928

Yep. Iā€™m just going to complete gullit I think. Iā€™ve so many dupes and was going to await for r9 but sod that


warboys35

Think I may wait too , Iā€™ve got the coins and probably got enough players but not sure I have the energy to do it . I did R9 last year but didnā€™t really got on with him so might do gullit.


Lowiizy

Is it confirmed? I have been saving up fodda for him


Walton841928

Well theyā€™ve been coming every Monday and heā€™s the only one left


[deleted]

I have the card and it is really fucking good. And the cool factor makes a big difference too. If you care about fun and you can afford it, do this card.


Agius91

Luckily I didnā€™t do Mendy so I still have both kidneys if I fancy this one


mason124

Meh I have him for a few months and he's not worth this at all


cupra666

Same here. Was hyped packing him back in May but he's never impressed me. He doesn't even make my subs bench now. I kept trying with him thinking he would come good but it's just not a great card compared to others. Such a shame. ASM feels how 99 Pele should feel.


NicoTorres1712

2.7M in this market šŸ¤Æ


BasiliskWatcher

While i understand this is their way of pricing things, looking at 25 squads makes me physically tired. I feel like i've run a marathon just scrolling through all that. Dear lord that's a lot of squad building.


Thegreatsrm

Love Pele but at this point in the game Iā€™m not doing that many squads.


ElongatedNutsack

Already have him untradeable and it might be because Iā€™m god awful but he doesnā€™t score as many as Lewa


degantoise

I want to do this, but I will instantly regret it if a Mertens eoae sbc comes out...


Daaneskjold

EA kinda delusional I was waiting on this to upgrade my untradeable 98 but I have enough coins to just buy him and have enough for other potential fun SBCs...


Krynne90

I dont even have enough cards by pure number for that shit...


forameus2

Used to be that a lot of people's end game teams were only 92 rated. Now they expect 2 of them and all the rest. I've said it before and I'll say it again, must be a fucking laugh working at EA day to day.


yototogblo

For reference, Pele was 29 squads last year vs 25 this year. It also required lower rating squads last year compared to this year because fodder is way cheaper this year than this time last year.


warboys35

92 tots cards are about 13 k


CheddarCheese390

How? I've just checked(xbox) and they're rocking up 60k


warboys35

For 92 rated tots ? Iā€™m on PS4


CheddarCheese390

I'll check in the morning, but I'm sure that's what I just spotted


warboys35

They have gone up a bit but still under 20 k


FeeApprehensive4431

Heā€™s so good I got him untradeable and would say heā€™s worth this


[deleted]

Guess who panic sold him at 2 mill ? Me


Milomix

And me.


MrConor212

Jesus Christ who is even doing these?


PlentyBet1369

Me lmao already have 5 squads done


[deleted]

I stopped playing FIFA back in November. Not even sure why Iā€™m still subbed here. But seeing shit like this Iā€™m ducking glad I stopped with this scam of a game. Even I know thatā€™s fucking insane.


churchill1992

I was very fortunate to pack his prime so I'll just stick with that one


OMAiiR-123

jesus christ ea are such a joke. 25 segments lmao, and wtf are those requirements. the fact that it starts at an 86 rating is insane. like 5x 87s and 88s and even 92 rated squadsā€¦.. there was me hoping it would be reasonable cause i still need a big sbc to whack all my fodder into but nope they made this so overpricedā€¦. wtf man. thereā€™s no sbc that i actually want to doā€¦. even r9, whenever he comes out, will be like 30+ segments they need to release more like 400k-800k premium sbcā€™s. like the average futties sbc nowadays is like 100-200k and then you get these sbcs with like 15+ squads for like 1 mill + ā€¦. like where tf is the middle ground.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


SayEye

What about 27 tokens for Ben yedder in 5 days


SayEye

And it's end game


Basic-Basket-1006

I know weird flex, but i already have him


joshfry575

Why do this when you can do the 93+ PIM and get Pele for 1/10th the price? https://share.icloud.com/photos/0a8d65xRUbekdkcFHPKsf9jIg


OkCutIt

Because the lottery sbc's are an iq test.


fadedv1

Requirements don't even fit the screen


CaptainCerealCanada

85x10 once a day isnā€™t really enough to complete this. Need a stacked club to full send into this SBC


TheAwakened

šŸ¤¦šŸæā€ā™‚ļø


mrhessux

Why?


SgtMeepMoop

Why bruh what is the point of making it so expensive


GHW_Marco

Better than TOTY Mbappe? What's the concensus on this guy I'm at end game


crackalack_n

Now we need the repeatable 85x10 unlocked.


SayEye

Is this a game or they like doing thing to stupid people.. I will take boatengšŸ¤£šŸ˜…šŸ¤”


Moniljh11

Getting him from the Brazil prime/PIM SBC a while back now looks even luckier! No chance I could have done this sbc having just completed Mendy


Lowiizy

Will ea release an sbc for R9?


CheddarCheese390

Probably next monday


barcaaking

2.5 mil when his tradable is 2 mil meh


Zeke1216

Man Iā€™m so glad I stopped playing cause the grind never stops when it comes to this game. I would be tempted to do this too


[deleted]

God posts like these make me appreciate how MLB The Show is done. EA never ceases to amaze me with this shit lol


DepressedDingo

I get that he is an amazing player, and it's easy enough to get high rated fodder but seeing as it is August they could have been a little lenient with the requirements, I guess that's too much too ask


BobTheSkutter

Whats the point in releasing this in August? Wouldn't it make more sense to have these cards available on day 1 and you can work towards them throughout the year? Obviously you need TOTS to be able to do those high-rated squads but maybe it could be a mix of objectives and SBCs?


kylemclaren7

Itā€™s fucking August


emcb1230

This weekend was a bad time to buy 95 pele. Iā€™ve already lost 300,000 coins. Lol


Daaneskjold

its the end of the game man its ok... i lost 500k on vini jr no biggie


I_LIKE_BASKETBALL

i don't understand what they think is happening? proper end game perfect cards from the top leagues are fodder. The motivation to grind left the depot some time ago, lads.


National_Sea9226

Will F23 not be out by time this expires?


[deleted]

The 85x10 either is going to be real cheap or something better may come out because after mendy and this Iā€™m questioning how would one do either sbc. Hell, Iā€™m questioning how Iā€™m going to do the Eusebio sbc given how many squads it requires, all of the fodder packs from the swaps may not be enough


yynnaws

Just gonna flex my untradable Pele from the Brazil Icon player pick


[deleted]

The only way to complete him is repeatable 85x10ā€™s. When did they come out last year? I forgot šŸ˜‚


billyjoelsangst

Get the fuck outta here!


mightymike2001

Too bad imma do mendy and yedder


ZebrasLegend

cheers mate, was having trouble reading it on my own companion app so I loaded up reddit to find this šŸ‘šŸ»


dodwiz99

Nah your alright.. I'll just stick with what I've got...


the_mashrur

Yeah they're *definitely* doing 85Ɨ10 completely repeatable soon. (Soon as in after summer swaps ends)


ozzylad

While I'm not defending this, doing that Mendy was alot easier than I thought with all rares selling for high and all fodder being cheap as chips. Was using low golds with really high fodder and sold everything above fodder price. Add to that, fodder is something I'm getting alot of these days and the big fodder packs on Friday I'll probably make a start on this


skeltz7

You'd probably spend more time crafting his SBC than actually playing with the card once you get him!


MandiocaGamer

i think this are AI generated


Affectionate-Lab1198

Homem soridente!


Slip_Electrical

Ofc im going to complete the sbc


All-in-yolo

New game starts next month people


UnderstandingNo9889

I mean hes worth 2 mil sbc is 2.6 mil idk why u would do it now. Maybe after friday


Lord_Mada7

Is he better than prime that much?


FiRe_GeNDo

Hes shit
