The FUTTIES season is in full swing in FC 26, bringing with it a wave of nostalgia and some of the most powerful cards we have seen all year.

Is the FUTTIES Challenge 5 Worth It?
During the FUTTIES promo, the 'Best Of' batches are in packs, meaning your chances of hitting a high-rated special card from previous promos like Team of the Season or even previous FUTTIES icons are at their peak. A Rare Mega Pack contains 30 items, all of which are Gold and all of which are Rare. This includes a mix of players and consumables, making it one of the best packs for building fodder.
- High Fodder Potential: With 30 rare items, you are almost guaranteed several high-rated cards for other SBCs.
- Low Entry Barrier: The requirements often allow for silver or non-rare gold cards to be used.
- Pack Weight: During FUTTIES, pack weight is generally adjusted to favor special card pulls from the re-released batches.
FUTTIES History and Impact
Historically, FUTTIES represents the 'Pink' period of the game where the community gets to vote on their favorites. In FC 26, this tradition continues with boosted items that rival the end-game power curve. Challenges like these are essential for players looking to complete 'Infinite Grind' loops, where you use the rewards from one SBC to fuel the next.
