By Alfie Carrington••2 min read
The competitive season is heating up in FC 26, and the latest release brings a massive boost to Major League Soccer fans. The FC Pro Leagues - eMLS Squad Building Challenge has officially arrived, offering a unique opportunity to secure four dynamic FC Pro Live items in a single group reward. These cards are tied to the performance of professional players competing in the eMLS circuit, meaning their ratings can increase based on real-world tournament results.
Analyzing the FC Pro Live Reward Players
This SBC is a standout because it doesn't just give you one player; it provides a full quartet of upgrades. You will receive Emil Forsberg, the Swedish playmaker for New York Red Bulls, alongside the pacey Canadian fullback Richie Laryea from Toronto FC. Joining them are Gabriel Pirani and Gustavo. Forsberg, in particular, brings high-level technical stats and veteran experience to the MLS, while Laryea remains a community favorite for his recovery speed and defensive versatility.

Dynamic Upgrades and eMLS Competitive Context
The eMLS is the premier competitive gaming circuit for Major League Soccer, where professional FC 26 players represent their respective clubs. Since these are FC Pro Live items, their potential is immense. If the pro players representing these four athletes advance through the eMLS brackets, the cards will receive significant boosts to their OVR and potentially gain new PlayStyles. This makes the SBC a 'live' investment that could result in top-tier cards for your squad by the end of the tournament.
Cost Analysis and Value
Currently, completing the entire set is estimated to cost around 151,500 on consoles and 128,500 for PC players. Given that you are receiving four potential high-rated players and an exclusive FC Pro Live Kit, the 0 represents excellent value, especially for those running MLS-themed squads or looking for high-end fodder that could upgrade later. With the end date set for April 12, 2026, you have plenty of time to use duplicate players from your rewards to chip away at the four segments.
- Excellent linkability for MLS and national team hybrids (Sweden, Canada, Brazil).
- Dynamic items provide potential for future rating increases.
