EA FC 26 Ultimate Team Guide You Should Not Miss
Pre-Lecture
Although Ultimate Team has allured the entire fanbase with its intense competition, things have changed a lot in FC 26. Now players will get a league-based starter pack instead of a nation starter pack and kits. What else has been changed in FC 26’s Ultimate Team? Well, now you can no longer choose a loan player. Instead, you’ll get an option to pick two players from a five-player pick.
Speaking of the starter pack, go for the Premier League starter pack or the LaLiga Starter pack, which includes a variety of world-class players with unique attributes and decent OVR. If you have 2 to three players at the start of your career with around 80-85 OVR, your team is capable enough to proceed further without any challenges.

Prioritize your FC Points (they have hardcore value and have the best ROI). If you are someone who has purchased the Ultimate edition. Don’t get over-excited, all you need to do is search for good value packs that will promise you a player worth the FC points you will be spending.
Lecture 1 : Why Completing Objectives are Must?
I know completing objectives has been a hassle, whether it's from your work or the game; you grind a lot to earn some characters. However, here, completing objectives is just like completing missions in a GACHA game. Once completed, you’ll definitely get an SSS tier pull!
Change positions frequently, as who knows which characters link best to another and creates an increase in the team’s chemistry. Right off the bat, adding a manager can help you to unlock a variety of objectives that will surely be fruitful to you and your desperate team. Further, change formation frequently, once or twice, to get other objectives completed. If done once, you’ll remember me forever!
Lecture 2 : Why Chemistry is Important?
It’s the crucial aspect of the game! All the game asks from you is to increase chemistry for better performance and a boost to players. Being one of the most important mechanisms in the entire mode, slowly aim for 33 chemistry as it will give your character a performance boost and will increase OVRs.
Lecture 3 : Is a Seasonal Pass Worth FC Points?
To be very honest, if you have 6000 FC points in your pockets and want to spend on player packs, be my guest, but what I would suggest to you is to invest in the Seasonal pass, as it will double your rewards.
Spending every bit of those 6000 FC points in a season pass will send shivers down your spine by rewarding some of the most badass players that you have never imagined with your base team. Besides players, you’ll get 500k coins with an extra 1000 FC points.
Depending on the patch update and upcoming events, you’ll be rewarded with numerous tradable card packs that will end your suffering to sell out players. While giving 5000 seasonal points, the pass also unlocks an EVO consumable that adds a different playstyle to a player, making him/her more versatile within your team’s formation and tactics.
Lecture 4 : What Else is there in FC 26’s Ultimate Team?
To unlock every SBC (Squad Building challenge) and other beneficial rewards, complete the foundation challenge, which will unlock a plethora of player card packs that will help you to increase your team’s OVR. On the contrary, if you have played EA FC 25 like me, you’ll get a “Welcome Backpack.” Besides bonus rewards, these packs might unlock a player that you have been wishing for ages. After doing all this generic stuff, head towards the squad battle and challenge teams with similar chemistry and strength to climb the rank ladder and unlock exclusive rewards. At last, all I want to say is don’t act blindly while opening packs, compare each player's stats and market pricing. Always keep those players in sight who have a variety of attributes, even if their OVRs are low.
