FIFA 21 Ultimate Team

Osmosis Jones

No shock my 2 picks from Gold 2 were De Vrij and Oblak

dmigsy

De Vrij was one of my choices but I went for Nani :pac:

Lord TSC

91 Pozuelo
89 Wagner
85 Mannus

92 Hernandez
90 Orsic
85 Mensah

I’ll take Hernandez as a win, I guess. I have enough French players to fit him in.

Going to skip this weekend though and take a break from the WL though.

Bunny Colvin

Theo Hernandez and Tavenier.

Mr Moon

Theo
Joao
2 foreign lads

Took Theo

Joao
Oblak
Kane
Onouachu.


Took kane

Even though I got Gold 2 I got shafted compared to the ones posted so far, in a sense.

Cancelo and Tavernier with the first pick and took Taver' as he cost more plus I've Gomez so can play him on half Chem.

Then the second pick was Oblak or Cancelo so I was forced to take a second RB as I do have Dias still so can get him in on full chem.

Not a great position as I've Zambrotta and Atal wont link with anyone else I put there so I'd be taking a chem hit playing either.

Lamposts

Kane & Virj. Harry Kane is now at the fodder price range. I did pack a tradeable UCL MOTM Kante so have 340k to play with it. Fut bday Atal has me tempted.

Mr Moon

I can only fit Kimmich in on 7 chem.
Would you play Bamba up front on 10 chem or Nani on 7?

Haven’t used Bamba yet as I’m still putting together a squad, but Nani up top is unreal. That’s where I used him last WL and he got 30 goals, 27 assists in 25 games.

Start with Nani on 7 Chem, since Bamba has 99 Acc/Pace he will have a much bigger impact coming off the bench with 5 chem then Nani would.

RossieMan

Cancelo and Bruno Fernandes from gold 1. Can't get either in my team being honest. Decent super subs I suppose.

Giggsy_

Kane and Bamba from Gold 3

Seeing as I use Kane in my team I'll take that as a win, Bamba is a duplicate red so he's good fodder

Mr Moon

I have a load of players I'd love to play some games with but there's nothing to play them in.

Rivals and WL are a sweat fest and besides that there's nothing else....

Agree.. I’m in div 1 rivals and I absolutely hate it. Sweat fest after sweat fest, skill move cancels and directional nutmegs all over the shop. I just want a nice, open game with plenty of goals both end.

Wouldn't be to hard to run some sort of discord for people here to play against eachother surely?

is there any way to set up a friends league or cup?

GavK

I’ve just logged in to get my rewards and there’s nothing there. This happen to anyone else ?

Final day of TOTS, literally just Marquee Matchups released.

No Guaranteed Ultimate TOTS SBC.

It'll be on Saturday like last year. They released the Deluxe and 88+ sbcs to drain fodder first.

I was thinking that , I'm on PS4 and it won't let me play against friends, the match never connects

They're out of packs tomorrow, are they not? New promo coming, won't be a tots pack with a new promo surely?

You need to sort your NAT type out, most likely NAT 3.

They have sometimes released promo guarantee packs after a promo ends, so they could still do it. They could.

They won't, imo. And not because another promo is starting. I think they just don't want people to get them.

They did the same thing last year, releasing deluxe packs before the Guaranteed Ultimate came on the Saturday after the promo finished.

Dunno why people care, only going to get cancelo or oblak etc

It's the pack pulls that are keeping people going. What's the point in having 4 million coins when the game itself is awful.

If I was relying on pack pulls . If have lost interest long ago

Lord TSC

Oh look, after weeks of not being blue to search for rare golds on the transfer market, they fixed it as the TOTS promo ends and the Player pick SBCs end. Very coincidental timing. :pac:

Utter scummy practice.

What keeps you going then?
Can't be gameplay, it's even worse than last year! No game modes worth playing either, in my opinion.

The fear of missing out, like us all!

Mr Moon

I can’t see myself playing past Gold 3, may not even go past Silver 1 in WLs anymore.

The new promo system looks impossible to get more than one upgrade.

Jim Gazebo

I enjoy the odd game here and there to unwind. Last year I thought the pack weighting in the summer after covid was great, everyone was packing insane talent. Now, it's different or maybe it's just luck. I opened all the weekend league rewards and rank 1 div 5 rivals rewards. I got 87 Sviatchencko and nothing else above 84. Kinda just makes me not want to bother with it. You can't just catch a lucky break anymore it seems. Even the 87 for the deluxe SBC is just too steep for me, it cleans my best players out of my squad. You need to be hardcore at it to be flush with cash and players imo.

To get the full upgrade you need 6 wins, apparently no team has ever got 6 wins in the euro’s (Spain did if a penalty shootout win counts?)

(I read this on Reddit)

Blazer

Looks like headers are back being op.
Just played a guy who spammed crosses and scored 3 goals from headers. Even Coutinho got one ffs.
Game just gets worse and worse.

A FSG token will be available for watching an hour of the Twitch stream for the West Asia playoffs starting now. I’m working from home so will just leave it on in the background - it’s over 3 days so plenty of time to claim it. Last week just left it on whilst I went to the supermarket, lol. Token came within a couple of hours as well

I’d love a free 100k pack but the last two were awful, so I’m not arsed this time round :pac:

Opened some pack on the app looking for some high rated fodder - got 89 Aguero and 85 Pjanic and along with 87 Modric yesterday scraped together the requirements for the 88+ TOTs - came out with 88 Baku, not much use other than firing into another SBC - will probably keep him in the hope that they drop the Ultimate SBC on Saturday which a lot of people are suggesting will happen

I watched about 2 minutes of this when i turned it on. My God am I glad I don't play at a high level, looked like the most boring game of FIFA ever. One guy just running side to side with Zidane and Gullit halfway in his opponents half and the other guy just crab walking side to side with Vieira.

It is pretty boring - I just have it on in the background, don’t think I’ve even watched 2 minutes of it! Job done though, as my token has already come so can turn it off now! Another token due next week and that will be enough for a Jumbo Rare Players Pack

I got two the last time as well.. still gave me 84s :pac:

seamie78

where does it pop up to get your token?

You claim it from the inventory page on the Twitch app/website, should then be available when you log onto the FIFA app or on console

Anybody playing Weekend League any more ?

Might take this weekend off and then play next weekend because there will probably be a token available for 15 wins (second set of nine icon swap tokens)
