In EA FC 24, you can currently complete the “Base Hero Upgrade.” And players find: If you want to have a Hero card, you can definitely try your luck here.
What is the Base Hero Upgrade? It is a new SBC that is available this week. It brings you a random, untradeable Base Hero card.
The entire pool of Base Hero cards is available, there are no rating restrictions. Event Heroes, such as those from the Triple Threat Event, are not possible.
It requires:
- One TOTW card
- A team rating of 85
- 11 cards in total
So the requirements are quite simple, there are no chemistry, league, club requirements, or similar. According to the futbin platform, the solution for the SBC is currently around 80,000 coins.
However, one should keep in mind: This price only applies if you buy all the cards fresh. If you solve the SBC using some cards from your club, you can significantly reduce the price.
Is the Base Hero Upgrade worth it in EA Sports FC 24?
This is what players say: In the subreddit for EA Sports FC 24, there are some positive voices about the SBC (via reddit). The consensus is: For what you can get from the SBC, the required cards are not too valuable. “Actually pretty cheap, wtf?” a user comments there (via reddit).
At the same time, it is precisely the good price that makes some players skeptical. They warn that you still cannot control whether something strong comes out: “Although it is cheap, I will not risk it and save my SBC fodder for a possible Mbappé-POTM-SBC,” a user comments (via reddit).
In the comments, players from both sides report: Some who have received top cards like Ramires or Touré, but also others who have drawn weaker or less useful cards like Kanu.
You should note: The SBC is a relatively inexpensive opportunity to get a strong Hero card. If you have enough suitable cards in your club, it is definitely worth considering.
At the same time, you should also keep in mind that you cannot sell the reward if the card does not fit into your team. Since it is an untradeable card, it cannot be sold on the market.
