EA FC 24: All Icons from the new 87 SBC – Is it worth it?

In EA FC 24 there is currently an Icon SBC that can bring you an icon for your team. But is the completion worth it? We look at all possible icons.

What kind of Icon SBC is this? The SBC (Squad Building Challenge) is called “Max.-87-Icon-Upgrade” and is available in Ultimate Team for two more days.

Here you can get an icon with a maximum overall rating of 87. To do this, you need to fulfill the following tasks:

• Submit a team with an overall value of 85
• Submit a team with an overall value of 86

Since you don’t have to pay attention to chemistry conditions, the SBC is at least easy to solve from a construction perspective. You just need high-rated players – but they can be expensive. If you need coins for that, you can get them through trading in EA FC 24.

What does the Icon SBC cost? If you look up on the portal futbin , the SBC is priced at about 150,000 coins (as of: October 23). However, this only applies if you need to buy all players anew. If you already have SBC fodder in your club, the challenge could be cheaper.

But is the SBC even worth the investment? We list all available icons with current prices.

What kind of list is this? Here we show you all icons that are ordered by price (via futbin) (as of October 23, 2023, 1:00 PM). But keep in mind that the transfer market in EA FC 24 is dynamic and prices can change constantly. However, the list provides a way to gauge whether the SBC is worth it for you.

These are the risks: You should consider several points to decide whether the SBC is worth it for you.

• The icon is untradeable – so you cannot sell it. It won’t bring you any coins on the transfer market.
• The chance of pulling one of the weaker icons is present. In the worst case, you may pull an icon that does not benefit you.

If you already have a lot of card fodder in your club that you want to get rid of anyway, the SBC might be worthwhile.

Is the SBC worth it? That is difficult to answer, as it is pure luck which icon you get.

If you get a card like Torres, Essien, Vidic, or Zambrotta, then the SBC is great. But if you pull Rush, Keane, or Kluivert, you might be disappointed at the end. Also, unfortunately, the SBC lacks absolute top legends with a rating over 87.

One thing is clear: If you are currently working on improving your team, you should not rely on the Icon SBC. It’s better to invest your coins in players from the transfer market where you know what you are getting.

Try to only attempt the Icon SBC if your team is currently set and you can reduce the cost of the SBC using players from your club. The chance of getting one of the top icons from the list is low – and the icons from this challenge cannot be sold on the market.
