Potential for FC 25’s First Icon SBCs of the Year

Beyond the icons in packs, there’s strong speculation that FC 25 will debut its first icon SBCs this Friday. Last year’s promo introduced several SBC icons alongside packable icons, allowing players to use in-game currency and resources to craft their favorite legends. For instance, last year’s SBC icons included Andrea Pirlo and Fabio Cannavaro, each providing unique play styles and adding flexibility to FC 25 squads.

If EA follows a similar approach, we can expect a handful of SBC options, potentially featuring players from this year’s Centurions lineup, such as Michael Laudrup, Sol Campbell, or Julie Foudy. By adding iconic players through SBCs, FC 25 would enable users to enjoy these players without the market fluctuations tied to promo releases.

Market Implications: Why You Should Sell Base Icons Now

The Centurions promo will likely have a significant impact on FC 25’s in-game market. Promo icons typically have a higher pack weight than base icons, making them more accessible. As a result, players with base versions of the newly leaked icons, like Beckham or Ribéry, may see a decrease in value. In anticipation of this promo, many users are opting to sell their base icons to maximize coin returns and prepare for the promo versions hitting the market.

Promo icons often come with boosted stats, play style enhancements, and sometimes exclusive abilities, which can significantly affect the demand and pricing of their base counterparts. For example, David Beckham’s base icon card saw a slight drop in value following the initial leaks. To avoid potential market losses, selling base versions of these icons before Friday’s promo could be a strategic move.

Road to the Knockouts: Market Movements and Investment Tips

With Champions League and Europa League matches today, the Road to the Knockouts (RTTK) cards are poised for possible upgrades. Players like Julian Brandt, Jeremie Frimpong, and Virgil van Dijk are currently invested in heavily, and their performance outcomes could lead to double upgrades, resulting in major price spikes.

For those trading in FC 25’s market, timing the sale of these cards, or “selling in the hype,” is crucial. If Dortmund wins their match today, Brandt’s RTTK card could see a dramatic increase in value, given that he would receive an upgrade. Similarly, Frimpong’s RTTK card could see a boost if Bayer Leverkusen wins against Liverpool. For effective trading, using a tool like Footbin’s price tracker can help you follow price changes and make informed buy-sell decisions.

The Champions League next round won’t occur until the end of November, making today an ideal time to trade RTTK cards while they’re still in demand. Holding on to these cards long-term can risk losing value, as market interest often decreases during the extended wait between matches.
