    Decided to drop a fiver and try two drafts.

    First one, I went for the bigger names, had IF Ronaldo and IF Martial up front. Overall chem was 78 though and bombed out in the first round.

    Second, I went for chemistry; had Remy, flanked by Lamela and IF Sanchez, as Messi and Neymar sat on the bench. 98 chemistry, thanks to an all French defensive line, with Lloris in nets. 3 wins and just barely lost the forth.

    So it seems the trick of the drafts is to go for chem rather than big names. Nearly all the teams I faced went for names over chemistry and I trounced hem with a better chem team.

    Packed Higuain and Rakatic as well for them, so that's 50k more to play with too :p

    First update about the disconnects in a week
    There has been significant progress towards solving disconnects on PlayStation. The team are monitoring the results over the weekend and further investigating PC.

    Thank you for your patience whilst we resolve this issue.

    The real reason Boards hasn't been fixed yet is because the Mods are too busy playing Fifa :D

    Video looks a bit suspect to me, looks like a video of a video of someone else opening it without the video of them commenting on it in the corner. Not sure what to believe. If you are taking Videos of your screen why can't you take a picture of it and upload it to Imgur and put it up..

    Either way i stand by my previous post

    Rondon or Giroud?

    Rondon, Better pace, better dribbling, better shooting and nearly the same physically. His passing is a small bit lower but use him as the tip and don't rely too much on him


  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭EoinAFC


    Been using Giroud, haven't used a player as good in the air but on the deck he's a poor enough player. Gonna give Rondon a few games now.

    Have him myself, top striker. Just lacks a little bit of pace to be a complete striker.

    I won the FUT Draft on my first go (the free go of it)

    Chose Vidal as captain. Team had a chem of about 80 I think. Got a gold pack and a mega pack as the prize for winning the four games.

    I like the mode - Not gonna be paying 15k to play it though.

    You can get way better packs than that for winning it

    The 2 times I've won it, 1st time I got a 25k all rare and 35k pack. 2nd time was 2 25k all rare packs and a 5k pack

    I've seen people getting 50k packs, and even 100k packs, luck of the draw with regards the packs you get

    Lost in the final just there, got what I thought was 2 **** packs, a 25k all players packs and an players packs with only 1 rare. In the pack with 1 rare I pulled Douglas Costa, and in the one with 3 rares I pulled Dybala and Juan Jesus :D

    Fan of Giroud too. Cool that the slower strikers are a viable option this year...



  • Registered Users Posts: 124 ✭✭GraphicGaming


    I have a full everton squad. With bony and darmian as cover. I want another pace stricker was thinking about diouf from stoke has anyone tried him out yet


  • Registered Users Posts: 568 ✭✭✭Tomagotchye


    I was doing a premier league b list squad built around Bojan but I'm sick of it now. If I create a LOI team, will that be reflected in online seasons? Will I find myself playing other broze teams or will Ronaldo keep ripping the **** out of me.

    I believe you will be playing against any sort of team in FUT, no star rating matchmaking like in regular Seasons mode.

    what is the draft all about ?

    what is the draft all about ?

    15k coins or 300 points to enter.

    You choose a formation and then "draft" random players; you get a choice of 5 players for each position on the field and each bench space. You have a very high chance of getting top level players (I've gotten Ronaldo in 3 of the 4 I've done, twice being his IF version, and Messi the time I didn't get Ronnie). You play through a cup competition. More you win, better the prizes, which tends to be a few packs.

    I made some decent profit with a particular player since Friday....it's not as good now but was able to make over 1K with each card which is not too bad when you have 2 or 3 pages of this player :D:D

    Just played the weirdest game. Was against some American (what I presume was a) streamer, who was commentating, talking to people and thanking people for donations and subscriptions.

    Wanted to trounce him so bad :( Hit the post three times, and he scored two wonder goals with Bacca. Ended 2-1.
