Definitely should have left cross play on. Won my last ten when I did. Definitely have fomo. That Maicon looks sick. Oh well The Show is coming out next week.
You’re far braver than I. I’d be too scared of hackers and getting booted. :laugh: I’d love if they would make console-only crossplay.

But nice job anyways. It sucks getting close and missing out but at least we got some good packs and Marty.

Fut Birthday looks crazy btw.
Yeah, so much so that I actually let myself be promoted to Div 1 so I could get the better rewards. :laugh: Saving everything possible, although my dumb ass accidentally opened a 83x14 yesterday.

Also that leaked CR7 SBC looks really good and I might have to do the Havertz one after how fun he was last year. I’m really looking forward to the whole promo.

@Lord Defect hi

@Lord Defect hi
Thailand’s return to civilian rule has concealed deep political instability, as the monarchy and military obstruct democratic reforms. Legal mechanisms and entrenched elites weaken the government, which led to the dissolution of opposition parties and the senate’s replacement with conservative allies. Repression under lese-majeste laws and occasional violent opposition from non-democratic groups blocks meaningful democratic progress and much-needed economic reforms.

@Striiker saw people pulling 5 promo cards in 87x10s. Mine…

Ouch. :laugh:

I don’t remember if it was an 87x10 or an 86x10 but I didn’t even get a special card… all gold.

Anything good otherwise? I got trash. Love the cosmetic evos though.
Garnacho out of an 85+ pick but he doesn't seem that special. Rabiot too but I think he's pretty common.

Havertz seems like a bit of a letdown. Wish they gave him LB. Might do CR7. Heard he's crazy.

21 squad, including like 6 89 and above? Not a chance I can get that done in 30 days.

I wish though.
 
@Surrounded By Ahos I avoided buying this game for years. When a game advertises itself as "hard," I stay away - that's not what I want out of a videogame. But my curiosity got the better of me eventually.

This f***ing thing is just too f***ing difficult. Cold snaps, heat strokes, lightning strikes, mad tortoise, mad rabbit, vengeful warg, malaria, food poisoning.

F*** off.

Hopefully he’s good. Fingers crossed. 🤞

DAMN :laugh:

How the hell do you have so much more fodder than I do? No chance I’d have been able to do it that quick, if at all. Hopefully he lives up to the hype.

What chem are you putting on him? I’m seeing like half hunter and half engine. And at this point I assume you have some type of 8 ST formation?

I haven't done a player SBC in weeks so my dupe storage was full with 87+ so that was about half the SBC done right there. I had every 89-85 gold card (other than Leao lol) in my club and on my transfer list. I only had to use one non-dupe promo card (that last one). Rest were all gold cards and TOTWs. You probably have more fodder than you think...unless you do icons gambles. :laugh: I think this was leftover fodder from the 82x20 grind during TOTY.

I heard to try him on marksman for the dribbling boost and he gets mostly lengthy, but I'm not sure I have the ping to make that work. I got shutout my first game against a Div 1 sweat and then had 4 goals with him before halftime of the next game lol.

Yeah I'm Striker FC. Puskas doesn't even make my bench anymore. I'm almost tempted to start in a 4-2-4 with Henry, CR7, Eusebio, and Olise up front and switch in game to Olise at CAM and play Eusebio out of position at RW. Only downside is no true CAM which hurts in the 4213. I kinda like that new Odegaard (rip Diego already).

Did the new icon yesterday, thinking its basically the lvl 40 pick and everyone was getting crazy options. Got both versions of WW Sawa and then WW Vidic. Cooked.

yeah, thats the problem. You kinda have to decide between pace and dribbling... cant have both with this one. Guess it depends on playstyle. Pace if you spam through balls, dribbling if you build up slower.

I hate you. :laugh:

My username is Striker - team is LITERALLY "Striker FC" - and thats somehow the weakest part of my entire team lol. Meanwhile you assembled the Avengers and dont even need them. Maybe we work out a loan deal for the rest of the year? I'll pay full salaries.

I'm happy with my back 6 (Trent and Ruben from WL rewards yesterday), but everything else needs to be upgraded.
