Is the 85-87 Upgrade SBC Worth It?
The main reward for completing this challenge is the 85-87 Rare Gold Player Pack. While the player you receive is random, the guaranteed 85-87 OVR rating ensures you're getting valuable fodder, or potentially a top-tier player to slot directly into your starting eleven. Considering that completing this SBC typically costs around 10,250 on consoles and 9,300 on PC, and the average value of a player from this pack can be around 7,334, it often represents good value, especially if you're using untradeable items from your club. This SBC is an excellent way to turn lower-rated duplicates or unused players into something significantly better, enhancing your squad for future challenges or improving your overall team chemistry.
