Reward Analysis and Value
By completing five out of the six available challenges, you will unlock the group reward: two 2x 86+ Rare Gold Players Packs. These packs are incredibly valuable during the FUTTIES promo, as they offer a high floor for fodder and a significant chance at pulling one of the boosted items currently in packs. Additionally, the inclusion of FUTTIES Tokens makes this a priority for anyone looking to unlock rewards further down the seasonal ladder.
- Focus on the Score in 14 and Win 8 challenges as they will naturally complete the shorter objectives like Score 1 and Assist in 5.
- Use these matches to also progress any active Evolutions, maximizing your time spent in-game.
- If you are short on time, remember you only need to complete 5 of the 6 challenges to claim the main rewards.
Maximizing Your Efficiency
Since the requirements span over multiple matches—specifically the 'Score in 14' objective—it is best to combine this with other active objectives or Friendly requirements. The rewards are all untradeable, meaning they are perfect for recycling into the latest high-end SBCs that require high-rated squads. Given the current power curve, having multiple 86+ rated players ready to go is essential for keeping your team competitive.
