Today, on November 24, 2023, Black Friday has fully arrived at EA FC 24 and is practically bringing new SBCs and/or packs to the shop every hour. Here in the live ticker, we will keep you updated on which new SBCs have just been released, whether and how you should solve them. We will also inform you about the best pack offers in the shop.
This is what our live ticker is about: The Black Friday event is famous for its dynamics. Accordingly, since 3:00 PM, the Thunderstruck promo has made its way into EA FC 24 and brings powerful, upgradable players with it. Promptly, the first flash SBC appeared, which is only available for a relatively short time.
What are flash SBCs? Squad Building Challenges give you the opportunity to trade players from your club for rewards. SBCs are usually subject to specific requirements and can only be solved with certain, suitable players.
Flash SBCs are only available for a limited time, thus requiring you to have your team together relatively quickly to obtain the reward before time runs out.
From 7:00 PM, we expect flash SBCs to appear hourly. To quickly obtain the right players, we will provide you with all the information regarding the requirements, prices, solutions, rewards, and time limits.
Requirements:
- an 83-rated team with 1 player from France
- an 84-rated team
Black Friday Live Ticker: All new SBCs, upgrades, and packs
New pack offers in the shop:
What new packs are available? For 30 or 10 coins, you can get a Premium Energizer or an Energizer Pack with the following contents practically for free:
- Premium Energizer Pack: 10 rare gold players (untradeable)
- Energizer Pack: 3 rare gold players (untradeable)
Additionally, you can pull Lightning Round Packs under the “General Limits” tab. These vary in prices and contents every half hour/hour.
What are Lightning Rounds? The Lightning Rounds are among the most popular packs in the shop, especially for content creators. These are usually unique, expensive packs that offer special contents. In these “lightning rounds,” there is only a set number of packs available.
At 5:30 PM, the first Lightning Rounds appeared in EA FC 24. Apparently, these are updated every half hour with new packs. In addition, there are very cheap shop offers, promising upgrade SBCs, and nearly hourly new flash SBCs.
You can also snag a rare gold pack (tradeable) and a common gold pack (tradeable) for 20,000 or 40,000 coins under the “Supply” option in the shop for one day and hour each. These contain the following untradeable contents:
- Common Gold Pack: 30 common gold players
- Rare Gold Pack: 40 rare gold players
New upgrade SBCs: 80+ upgrades, double upgrades, and 85+ player choices
Apart from the hourly repeatable 80+ upgrades, you can complete the remaining upgrade SBCs five times every 24 hours for the next three to four days.
Here are the requirements for the upgrades:
- Upgrade 80+: a gold team with six players, including one rare player
- 84+ double upgrade: an 83-rated team with one Team-of-the-Week player
- 85+ double upgrade: an 82-rated team with at least two 84-rated players and an 83-rated team
- 85+ player choice (1-of-3 rare 85+ gold players): an 84-rated team
Flash SBC Live Ticker: Time limit, requirements, reward, solution
Important in advance: The shown SBC solutions are merely team suggestions and always represent only one variant among many. You can also be inspired by our suggestions. If you get creative and use players from your club, you can even save coins, as you won’t need to buy cards on the transfer market 1:1.
11:30 PM: Even at this late hour, there is a new flash SBC once again. For this, you won’t need a single gold player and will receive an untradeable pack worth 25,000 coins upon completion.
