The start in FIFA 19 Ultimate Team can be difficult – especially if you are newcomers. There are some things that can make your start particularly challenging.
Tips from the FIFA pro: The English streamer and “FUT Champions” Top 100 player Zelonius has summarized several tips for this year’s Ultimate Team mode for the site fifauteam. Here are 8 things you should definitely avoid in FIFA 19 FUT.
Do not build teams without a plan
1. Don’t swap your team too often! Just when you have perfectly assembled your team, you suddenly see the perfect player on the transfer market. You definitely want him – but your team doesn’t fit. Don’t immediately overhaul your whole squad. When you sell players, you lose 5 percent of the sale value. This could quickly become a losing deal for you if you just acquired the players.
2. Be careful with Squad Building Challenges! The Squad Building Challenges are a great way to earn exciting players or sets. But be cautious: Some SBCs are not worth it at all and just consume your coins. So don’t do every challenge! If you only get a loan player for a few games, the investment isn’t worth it in the long run. Or if there are only rewards that don’t help your team.
Don’t play too emotionally
3. No Rage Quits! Sure, when you’re down 0:4, the game seems over. But how often have such games been turned around? Furthermore, you ruin your coin multiplier: With every rage quit, you receive fewer coins in the next matches. And it takes many games for the multiplier to increase again.
4. No “Total Attack” at 0:1! An unexpected goal against can be quite frustrating. Especially in phases where you were actually on the attack. However, do not throw everything into the attack department: You can easily concede more goals this way. Play your game to the end with focus. The chance of turning the match around is significantly higher this way.
Don’t fully utilize the transfer market
5. Don’t invest everything in one player! If you’re playing a Bundesliga team, the new TOTW card of Timo Werner looks pretty great. The problem is, there’s nothing behind it in your team. Invest your money early on in the depth of your squad instead.
6. No lazy transfers! Often players are offered at extremely inflated prices on the transfer market. The problem: Many players look for a specific card and buy it directly on the first page of the transfer market. Be smart: Scroll further back, compare prices. This way you can save a lot of money. By the way, there are some affordable starter teams in FUT!
Invest coins thoughtfully
7. Don’t waste your money on packs! This also applies especially at the beginning of the season. You have few coins, and at the same time, there are hardly any packs that promise absolute top players. Invest instead on the transfer market and get packs through Squad Battles, for example.
8. Don’t hoard your coins until the end! It’s like with the classic “elixir” in role-playing games: “Maybe I will need this later” – and then you never use it. Use your coins! Otherwise, by the release of FIFA 20, you might have 100,000 coins in your account but no decent Ultimate Team. A good way to earn coins is through the daily gifts in the Web and Companion App.
With these tips, success at the beginning of the season should be secured for now. Do you want more tips? Here you can find 8 tips for the perfect start in FIFA 19 Ultimate Team! You can also already try your hand on the transfer market in the FIFA 19 Web App and the FIFA 19 Companion App.
