In EA FC 24 many players have had a special card of Coverstar Erling Haaland since last weekend. For all those who have doubted the sense of the new version so far, today we show what advantages Beats-Haaland has.
Which card of Haaland is it? The Beats version of Erling Haaland was given to all players who have completed a match in Ultimate Team by November 1, 2023. It has a rating of 87 and is thus actually 4 overall points worse than his rare gold card, which can only be played with a certain playstyle.
Many of you are probably confused about what to do with a worse Haaland card after more than two months since the official release. But don’t let appearances deceive you. In our opinion, the new version is even better than his rare gold card because of the new playstyles. And the best part is, it can provide you with plenty of extra rewards if you integrate it into your team.
Beats-Haaland: Two playstyles make him a super sprinter
What makes the new Haaland so strong? The new version has 5 more pace compared to the better-rated gold card. This consists of an 87 value in acceleration and a 99 value in sprint speed. However, that alone is not the reason why Beats-Haaland is faster than the 91 version.
Especially the combination of the playstyles Sprinting and Quick Step makes a player run faster. Especially when the player has one of the two playstyles as a gold variant, i.e., as Playstyle+. Beats-Haaland possesses both playstyles, with Quick Step being available in the gold variant.
Once you get past the opposing player, Haaland is almost impossible to catch, and his large and wide playermodel makes it very difficult to separate him from the ball.
How to make Beats-Haaland even better: Since his sprint speed is already at 99, and you are even faster with the two playstyles, we recommend equipping Haaland with a chemistry style that gives him a bit more finishing, passing, dribbling, or physicality. Since the Norwegian is supposed to be the one who puts the balls in the net as the last resort at Manchester City, we opted for a Marksman chemistry style. This adds some boosts for finishing, dribbling, and physicality.
Beats-Haaland goal hunt brings you cool rewards
This is how Haaland can provide you with extra rewards: In conjunction with the new card, a complete task block named “Beats-Haaland Goal Hunt” appeared yesterday in the milestone objectives.
These objectives hold cool event loan cards for you, including icons and heroes. Additionally, you can earn many good to very good upgrade packs. The tasks only have two simple requirements, as you only need to …
- … score in 40 separate matches while having Beats-Haaland in the starting lineup.
- … score in 15 separate matches with Beats-Haaland himself and have him in the starting lineup.
The milestones are available for over 60 days and can be unlocked in all game modes. As a reward for completing all the tasks, you will even receive a Jumbo Rare Players Pack worth 100,000 coins.
So it’s definitely worth trying out Haaland to be convinced of his new version and to treat yourself to a few extra gifts before Christmas.
In the packs, you can also pull players from the new Dynasties event. There are some real stars among them.
