    2/3 the way ready for the Bundesliga League SBC. Last year the prize was 92 Lewandowski which was equal to 2IF.

    Need to get Sokratis for Dortmund squad and then the heavy lifting is all done as long as I’m willing to lose Hummels (or buy Thiago if I’m not).

    It’ll be a while still but pretty excited about that. Plus the packs you get from each individual one as well

    Really missing the Futbin import feature. I'm finding it much harder to figure out which of my cards are worth anything. Much too lazy to go through and check one by one.

    Decided to drop 30k on an Electrum players pack or whatever, I got Benteke and a smattering of 70's. I got my Gold 2 rewards, the best player I got was Marc Bartra (who I already have). Haven't played FUT for a while, now I remember why.

    I did score my first backheel goal with Kruse, which was nice.

    Pack luck is really shit now. I think part of it is that the meta has settled in such that there are probably only 50-60 players total that people find useful.

    I started a career with Atlanta United and ran some teams out of the building in the pre-season tournament then opened the season 0-2 on two 1-0 defeats. Haven't touched that since.

    Would love suggestions on cheap Serie A players you guys use. Have this so far for <10k (the Handanovic is an untradeable). Going to try and grind my way up for those last two and then start upgrading this squad (the MLS squad I built sucked ass).

    Yeah I’ve been playing cod more and more because I haven’t gotten shit in packs in a while... plus all the guys I want to improve my team I will never be able to afford.

    Lowest BIN is 1,940,000 and there are only 8 total on the market, none clean.

    Listed for max BIN (3.2 mil) with start price 100k lower.

    If he sells I may buy him back lower and have a ton of profit because people are weird about clean cards (0 games played for others)

    Don't have a single one, and no one is going for below 2k BIN. Gonna have to sit on this last MM until things cool down a bit.

    The Serie A one is kind of a bitch. Luckily there are a good number of bronze Serie A cards to fill in gaps.

    I pulled IF Messi in FIFA 13 or 14 I think, TOTS Pogba 2 years ago and last year got in untradeable packs TOTS Keita, TOTS Stindl, TOTS Guerreiro and TOTS Carvajal (I saved up a ton of crappy gold players and did League packs during TOTS)

    There’s a lot that can be done with that coin so understandable if Horn is working for you.

    Could get most cards in the league

    I spent some time today trying to figure out how I could work Vidal and Nainggolan into the same squad. Vidal is great if you haven’t played him yet. Nainggolan is superhuman. I couldn’t believe how good he was when I played with him.

    Vieira sold. Sitting on 2,140,188. No idea what I’m doing to do with the funds.

    I built a squad around POTU Valeri using IF Martinez, IF Asad and IF Alessandrini. Upgraded Sidibe and Otamendi to IFs. Maybe upgrade Argentinian CM to IF Pastore or IF Banega.

    Not a ton I can do with the Bundesliga squad. Not a lot of available upgrades for my Eredivisie/Ligue 1 squad.

    Might buy other legends since they’ll always hold value

    You should start a Premier league squad with Jesus, Martial, Sane, Bakayoko. I hear that’s good.

    You were playing the false 9 Bundes squad weren't you? That new SIF Raffael seems like a perfect CF, considering upping Kruse to him.

    EDIT: Not that that would put even a dent in your slush fund.

    EDIT: first game I play since this post and Kruse scores 4 goals. I feel like he knows I'm thinking of cheating on him.

    Can't decide whether I want to put together a squad for the Keita FUTMas SBC or just wait for him to get an IF and stick with Aranguiz. I think I like Aranguiz better as a super sub than as a CAM.

    I tried the first Raffael IF and he just didn’t work for me. His 2IF stats look comparable to IF Kruse though so probably try him out and hope to rotate those 2 until Stindl PTG gets updated

    OTW Salah is at one of its lowest prices so I bought 2. Then I was watching another and bidding it up because I figured it was low enough I’d take a 3rd. Now own 3. Hoping he lands a January upgrade and possibly another IF then sell them for big profit

    Salah should get a IF every week imo

    I’m assuming there’s no way he doesn’t get an upgrade in January. Hoping up to 85 which would push the OTW to at least 88 if he doesn’t get another IF by then. Might put all my coins in Salah and then either in the hype leading up to January upgrades sell him or risk it, wait and then sell

    Werner card looks nice and I've been looking for an upgrade at ST, but an 85 rated squad is a bit ridiculous. Same requirements as the 89 Zlat ffs
