In EA FC 24 the Thunderstruck event has brought a number of dynamic cards to Ultimate Team. These cards can become stronger over time. We present the conditions for the upgrades and show you which players have already made progress.
How do the upgrades work? The progress depends on the performance of the clubs where the Thunderstruck players are currently under contract. For the Thunderstruck Icons, the upgrades refer to selected clubs where they have had a successful time in their careers.
With the launch of the Thunderstruck promo, teams have four games in their home league to give the special cards one or more upgrades. The enhancements for Icons differ from the upgrades of the normal players. This is evident from the following image.
While regular Thunderstruck players can collect up to 2 Inform upgrades and two additional playstyles, the already strong Thunderstruck Icons can receive one additional playstyle and an Inform upgrade at best.
Thunderstruck Tracker shows you all upgrades and progress
What is behind the Thunderstruck Tracker? Here we present a table of all Thunderstruck cards and show how many victories they have already achieved.
Players who have already been changed by an upgrade have been updated here. A new rating through an InForm upgrade (IF upgrade) is bold highlighted, playstyle upgrades (PS) are marked with an asterisk (*). In the last column, you can see in more detail which improvement the card has received.
The additional playstyles of the latest upgrades will be added when they are known.
