FIFA 22 WebApp and Early Access Start-Up
Loading into WebApp for the first time
You will have to choose a nation, this will give you some players from that nation for your starter team.
From an efficiency standpoint, it would be a better idea to choose a country that has a lot of SBC fodder.
*Fodders are unusable players in-game, which are very usable for SBCs. But do remember, these starter players can’t be sold so look to utilise them in SBCs later on.
Brazil, Argentina & France are always good shouts because of all the potential leagues they can cover and for the few starting SBCs, nation links for players in a variety of leagues will help out a lot with requirements.
Kit and badge selection
A not well known trick you can do is to make sure to select Gold Rare Kits and Badges only. Don’t go for some small clubs just because it looks nice, we’re after quick sell value here. Many don’t know this but the kits and badge you select are actually tradable. Go for big club items that you know should have Gold Rare items as these will quicksell for more.
Afterwards you will be able to check your club section and exchange your active kits and badge to the ones the game gave you at the start which are untradable. I’d recommend quick selling them and to have some coins right away.
Pack Management
You can now open your Welcome Back Packs. Probably one of the more exciting first moments after loading up the WebApp.
These have gotten a major revamp this year, so let’s take a look:
-
2x Gold Packs
-
4x Gold Player Packs with a guaranteed 80+ Rated card
-
1x Stadium Customisation Pack (all items in total quick sell for ~2.500)
Make sure to not blindly quicksell anything just yet. Go through all cards one by one to maximise your coins as much as possible. Compare price and see if it looks like it may be possible to sell a card on the market, if not and the card doesn’t offer good nation links like the before mentioned major nations, you could look to quick sell them.
What’s next?
Once you’ve finished managing your club by deciding what to sell and what to keep, you should have a decent amount of coins built up. Time to do Advanced SBCs and increase your coin total even more!
Completing SBCs
Let’s talk about completing SBCs to earn coins early on in the game. Fact is that certain SBCs are great to earn coins from and that you should definitely complete some to boost your coin balance.
What SBCs do we want to complete as soon as possible?
We want to complete the Advanced SBC groups. Those have the biggest chance to give you the most profit. This is because the SBCs are quite cheap to begin with, but the packs can be considered very valuable. Start with the ones which reward you with high value packs like the Rare Mega Packs or Rare Player Packs.
After making sure you’ve found the cheapest way (for you and around the cards you may have managed to get through your starter packs), complete an SBC part and instantly open the pack. Keep every player unless you know for sure that a player won’t fit in any of the remaining SBCs and equally sell when you need to increase your SBC completing power.
Let’s look at an example:
Hybrid Nations SBC Group was ~30.000 to complete at the start of the game last year and the return was:
-
1x Electrum Players Pack
-
1x Gold Players Pack
-
1x Prime Gold Players Pack
-
1x Rare Players Pack
and
-
1x Rare Mega Pack for completing the whole set
This means the following:
You pay ~30.000 for the whole SBC group (4 SBCs, 5 packs) and in return you get tremendous value from the 5 packs which will no doubt make back your invested coins & much more on top. And who knows, maybe you manage to pack an absolutely huge card? In that case you’re off to a flying start in FIFA 22!
*Keep in mind that there’s 2 other sets of Advanced SBCs that you can start building (some will require loyalty, however)
Early Investing/Trading
Many of the cards you used in those Advanced SBC solutions can also be amazing investments. The requirements of those SBCs are quite restrictive which means there’s only a handful of ways to complete them. That leads to cards that for everyone who wants to do the SBC, will need to either have packed them or buy them from the market.
Some of the key nations are Brazil & Argentina. Gold cards from those nations and especially off-league ones hold a significant value. This means if you were to buy into some SBC required cards early on, their value will increase over time as more people get to completing the SBCs. In this case the faster you get through everything yourself, the better the results will be and the more coins you’ll make.
You can also look to invest in usable Meta cards from the popular leagues which you think are going to go up in price over time. However, this won’t be the most efficient use of your coins.
In case you want to spend more time growing your coins, actively bidding/sniping cards on the market is the way for you. Find out what cards hold somewhat of a value doing a bit of searching, even Silver cards do! You will eventually find some nice bidding/sniping filters which you can use to generate small profits.
How to use your EA Play 10 Hour Trial
I think this one is best to be kept simple and straightforward.
DO NOT use the 10 hours for anything other than gameplay! All else like trading and building your starter team can be done on the WebApp so you’d just end up wasting valuable time in which you could be playing for better rewards.
In terms of what modes to play, it’s really up to you:
-
Playing Squad Battles means playing offline and the rewards seem to be worse than previous years. Although, a bonus is you can grind towards some Milestone Objectives and you can get a feel for the gameplay without the pressure of a real opponent!
-
– Scoring 100 finesse goals rewards an untradable Rare Players Pack (50k Pack)
- – Scoring 500 goals rewards an untradable Jumbo Rare Players Pack (100k Pack)
-
Playing Division Rivals means playing online and progressing through from Division 10 and along the way unlocking packs and working towards weekly and seasonal rewards!
-
– Scoring 10 goals in Rivals rewards an 82+ Rated card
That should just about cover it!
