Fifa 22 Ultimate Team discussion thread

Just played against a guy with Fwkir, looks a great card

Absolutely agree but Rudiger had no chem, and it just happened in my favour, my Konate (anchor chem) caught up with Werner

Finished up in div.2 in rivals, never been in this division before, iv'e noticed a few players running to the end line and playing the ball across the box to score this afternoon, might be something to watch out for this evening lads

When you say "good English players" what do you mean? Appreciate you probably don't want to give names as will result in more people bidding on what you are, but is it higher rated 73/74s? Particular positions etc?

Its happened again, this time, playing the european euphoria obj, and Inaki Williams gets outpaced by base Ryan Bertrand 😄

Can somebody tell me what im doing wrong, i press sprint, i have the ball, im running straight at goal, but Bertrand is clearly running faster, is there anything else i can do

Got rank 1 rewards in WL qualifiers and managed to get IF Bastoni and RTTK Mukiele. Not worth a whole lot but Mukiele fits perfectly into my team now. Sold Son for 315k and got Sterling for 36k and there's little difference. Sitting on 450k with little to do with it now, seems to be a huge cap between the good players around 100k and top ones who are all over 1m coins

His unique body type and 90+ agility and balance is definitely the reason. Haven’t tried him myself but have heard he’s one of the better wingers this year.

Yeah if Firmino wasn't in it I'd have no interest.

Leaving all my qualifier matches until tomorrow evening in the hope that more people will be giving away wins.

Market went mad today. Was watching rttk Isak, was 140k yesterday, went down to 100k, up to 120k, down to 70k, up to 95k and now he's 85k. Will probably pick him up for my placement matches tomorrow.

Going to throw all my low rated golds into the marquee matchups and player picks tonight to try and stock up on sbc fodder as doing De Ligt and Fekir left my club pretty empty.

Got Van Dijk from that rare mega pack myself, not going to complain about that!

Bought Fifa 22 a week or two ago after paying zero attention to the build up of the game, first impressions are fairly good - nice that the matches are more realistic and pace isn't OP yet anyway.

Ultimate Team is very different to before hand, what is the story with rivals rewards? In previous years you got decent rewards even if you were down around Division 6/7, you were rewarded essentially for how often you played the game. This year it seems difficult to build up packs and coins as the rewards for rivals are fairly poor (one or two packs depending what you pick) - am I mistaken or is this just the new way it is?

Also what way does FUT Champions work? I see that there is now a playoff system. So once you rake up 1500 points to qualify you could still end up getting knocked out in the qualifiers? Are you able to play the qualifiers any day of the week or does it have to be Fri/Sat/Sun?

The bizarre part of it is that they introduced the Featured TOTW system this year that would give a double boost to a TOTW player whose base card is <80 rated, and then gave it to a useless RB when both of these lads are in the TOTW and would have made for perfect choices:

Bellingham is literally the player they used in their marketing to explain the new system and all!
