Top Tier Rewards: Leon Goretzka and Elite Packs
The individual rewards for this objective are particularly strong. By completing the 'Win 7' task, you will unlock Leon Goretzka. Goretzka has been a fan favorite for years due to his 'Gullit-gang' status, possessing the physical presence and technical ability to dominate the midfield. Beyond the player reward, the cumulative packs are the real draw for most users.
- The final completion reward is a massive 10x 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack
- Mid-tier rewards include a 15x 83+ Rare Gold Players Pack which is excellent for finding chemistry links.
- Multiple 86+ and 87+ double packs to ensure high-rated cards for your next squad building challenge.
Efficiency Strategy for Ultimate Gauntlet 18
To complete this objective efficiently, you should focus on the 'Score in 14' and 'Win 10' requirements. Since you only need to complete 9 out of 10 challenges to get the group reward, you can technically skip the longest task if you have already secured the wins. However, given the quality of the 10x 83+ Rare Gold Players Pack early on, it is worth playing through all of them to maximize your card intake.
