Fifa Ultimate Team 17

Osmosis Jones

TOTW SBCs are back and so 83/84s are expensive. Did one of the guaranteed tradeable TOTW SBCs with a couple untradeable IFs I had.



My luck this week has been stupid.

Lord TSC

They TOTY forwards are in packs now :eek: They must have switched things round.

Going to churn out some Nation SBCs. Prices will nosedive with the pack openings...

Lord TSC

9 of 18 Liga Nos done for an outlay of 10k so far. Not opened any of the packs yet. Three more teams "done" in terms of they don't require a full 11 of a team, just 3 or 5, so I'm leaving them till the end and I'll throw in some cheaper players to finish them off.

maxwell smart

Had stockpiled 19 packs of various types, at pack 9 now at best so far is Isco....why did I bother??

deafroadrunner

I just did something very stupid just spent 900k on the 100k packs. Got a heap of sh**e.
Best player was reus

J. Marston

Someone made an official WL TOTY...

With all the lightning rounds today I picked up some IFs from this TOTW. Got fabregas for 70k, Kasper for 32k and Baines for 45k.

Also purchase Kluivert this morning for 670k. I hope he serves me well!

Osmosis Jones

Thanks to that Lukaku pack this is my current team.

Love Sanchez he is an unreal midfielder of he got an inform he would be insane

Osmosis Jones

Yeah Renato's basically a cheap Kante. Actually just changed up the team a bit, had some extra coins so I got Marcelo at LB.

Got back on the Fifa train two weeks ago after a couple of year hiatus. Have had decent pack luck, without really opening that many. IF Alli today from that 82+ SBC (untradeable unfortunately) and Yaya in a futmas pack.

Gonna do a few more of those sbc things while player values are tanking. Did the PSG one for around 18k, haven't opened the prime pack yet, and in the meantime, noticed a heap of Cavanis selling for dirt cheap. Managed to get a few for around 5k and put them to 7.5k to get an instant return off the auto buyers. Maybe only made 15k total but not bad for a few mins work. Wasn't long before the big dogs were in pricing him out of the market but heeaps still on there for the starting price of 1400. God bless mass pack openings and I wish I had more coins to invest this week. There's profit to be made.

I find him better then Kante. There is something weird about Sanchez but his stand up tackling is always spot on he is brilliant at breaking up play

Reus at striker. That is all.

Got untradeable IF Kane from the SBC...planning on opening some packs this weekend + WL rewards. Here's hoping for that Suarez!

Stab*City

My son packed IF Baines last night his first ever IF from a pack he was very happy until I packed IF Alli!!! Now i have three IF's. My best team ever from any fifa. I picked up some cheap Kanes yesterday and sold them on for a couple grand profit. Also picked up some cheap Draxlers. I did end up spending real money though on packs last night! With the EA access discount it wasnt too bad to drop a tenner each between me and the young fella. Oh and i packed a Payet as well.

Can someone explain how lightning rounds work and how do we know when they are on?

You don't really know when they are on but it's the start of the hour and they have maybe a limited number of packs like 10k and its first come first served.

I got excited I thought there was an sbc to get a striker reus thanks haha.

Yeh he is very good as a striker but if you want to try an even better one inform depay is the business his dribbling is insane.

Lord TSC

Packed a tradeable SIF Kane. Gonna use him. He's slow, but his heading and his long shots make up for it, especially when playing against PTB people...

Lord TSC

Going all in on the hopes of POTM Ibrahimovic. Nabbed a spare IF Memphis, IF Valencia, a few Mata's, a tonne of Carricks, and 25 discard IFs from the French League.

Banking on a United SBC and a French League SBC (hopefully not just a PSG one). Will either be very, very rich come the weekend, or absolutely broke....

What do you mean by 25 discard If's?

In form cards that I bought for 10-11,000 coins. If you quick sell them, you get about 10k coins back, meaning they are relatively risk free investments if you get them cheap. They also tend to double (and sometimes triple) in price if relevant SBCs come along that need them.

I had him for a while on the left wing. He was fast. Using his normal card does the same job :P

Thanks. Ive always gazed with jealously at other players teams and bank accounts. I always end up with a sh*t team and no money at the end of the season.

So this time ive decided to try make more of a go of it.

I have failed to win in my last 11 games, where is it all going wrong

Anyway I have taken advantage of the drop in Legend prices to grab a few. CAM Zola (327) / ST Lineker (317) and LW Futre (210 ) have all joined my squad. Looking to pick up a RW Freddy Ljungberg later to complete a legendary forward quartet.

If they don't do the business I'll just have to accept that I really am ****e
