FC 27 Carlos Augusto SBC: Cheapest Solutions, Requirements, and Showdown Review
Welcome to the ultimate guide for the newly released Carlos Augusto Squad Building Challenge in FC 27 Ultimate Team. This is a score-based SBC, meaning you don't need to worry about traditional team chemistry or squad positions. Instead, you simply submit unwanted player items from your club to accumulate a combined grading score.
How Score-Based SBCs Work in FC 27
Unlike classic SBCs where you build a specific formation with strict chemistry links, score-based challenges offer complete flexibility. Every player item in your club has a fixed grading score. The challenge is successfully completed once the combined grading score of your submitted players hits the target requirement. For this specific challenge, some tiers require players with a minimum OVR threshold, so make sure to check your club storage before submitting.

Cheapest Solutions and Cost Management
Because you only need to meet a total score requirement, the most cost-effective strategy is to submit players that offer the lowest price per grading score. Current market estimates place the overall cost at approximately 25,650 on consoles and 25,650 on PC. By leveraging untradeable duplicates sitting in your club, you can significantly drive down these expenses and secure the rewards for a fraction of the market value.
