Video summary
The video focuses on the upcoming tenth and final season for FC 26, which serves as a crucial bridge to the next installment of the game, FC 27. The primary highlight of this new preseason is a unique reward structure where players earn items in FC 27 simply by playing matches in FC 26. Unlike previous seasons that offered cosmetic rewards like kits and celebrations within the same game, this season emphasizes packs as the main currency for progression into the future title. Viewers are encouraged to grind objectives today to reach level 30 before the deadline, which unlocks an initial pack reward of eight items worth five in FC 27. Additionally, there is a special World Cup mode and Journey of Nations challenge that offer further opportunities to secure these carryover rewards once players complete specific milestones like winning group stage matches or finishing regional objectives.
In terms of immediate content drops, the host discusses various Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) and card evolutions available in FC 26 ahead of Friday's major update. A significant change noted is that EA has extended the expiration date for an 85-plus player pick SBC after community feedback regarding its poor value, making it a more viable option compared to other repeatable challenges like the 84x10 pack. The video also covers specific card evolutions, including new fullback options and upgrades for players like Aiden Heaven, while highlighting that completing certain high-level objectives can yield rare Festival Football cards or even chase potential 99-rated picks. These daily activities are designed to keep players engaged before the official preseason promo launches next Friday with its own tournament mode.
Looking ahead to the season pass leaks, a substantial roster of legendary and cult-classic players is expected to be introduced in FC 27, including names like Patrick Vieira, Bernardo Silva, Casemiro, and Harry Kane. These cards will feature significant stat boosts, such as 99-rated attributes for specific skills on existing high-tier players, alongside new playstyle pluses that enhance their effectiveness. The leaks also suggest the inclusion of iconic figures from football history who have never been featured in FIFA/FC games before, expanding the roster with legends like Fernando Torres and Sergio Aguero. While some fans express concern about icons losing their exclusivity due to frequent additions, these transfers represent a major shift for players planning to continue into FC 27, offering both nostalgic value and competitive utility through powerful evolutions that could push cards closer to maximum ratings.
Finally, the video provides strategic advice on managing in-game currency before the upcoming content drop scheduled for Wednesday evening. The host warns that card prices are likely to spike immediately after new packs hit the store due to increased demand from players rushing to complete SBCs and upgrade their squads. Consequently, he recommends purchasing specific budget-friendly cards like Joe Gomez or Lala while they remain affordable, as these could be excellent long-term investments once market saturation lowers their value post-drop. The discussion concludes with a reminder about upcoming leaks regarding the full Team 4 roster for FC 26's pink card promo and hints at potential changes to pack weights in future updates, urging viewers to stay tuned for live streams where more detailed news and leak confirmations will be shared as the transition to FC 27 begins.

Hey guys, it's Nate aka the foot
accountant. Welcome back to the channel.
Alas, we have arrived after nine full
seasons on FC26. We are about to start
the 10th and final season of this game.
Preseason. As you would expect, it is
just that, the preseason before FC 27
starts, the bridge between FC 26 and 27,
if you will. With the highlight of this
whole entire season pass being the
ability to play FC26 and get rewards in
FC27, specifically packs. We're going to
take a look at what packs and what sort
of rewards we're going to be earning as
we do have some leaks for this upcoming
season pass. Don't worry, it's a normal
season pass as well. And some of us
maybe like you and I do have a season
pass token up here that we didn't claim
from this current season that we will be
able to use for next season. and get the
premium pass for free. We're going to
take a look at all those leaks. We're
also talking about footies team 4 today
because the whole thing has been leaked,
heroes and icons included. And also, we
have some icon related leaks for FC27.
And I think we're going to get some more
official news soon. Let's talk about all
guys. If you're excited for this one,
drop a thumbs up for the video, hyped
video, and subscribe if you are new.
Now, let's look over yesterday's content
on a Tuesday, which brought us another
fullback evolution. We usually complain
about not getting enough left back,
right back evos, but we have had so many
recently. This one's called back
shortly, and it is a decent boost to
create a very well-rounded left back. I
think the perfect option for me from my
club is either this Esto Toué card who
gets a very nice pace boost, little
defense and physical stat boost there as
well, or it's going to be the Jordy Alba
who I have been trying to evo recently
because this is his end of an era card.
This is the last card that he's going to
get until he either gets an icon or a
hero card in this game. And I think
that's going to be the EVO for him
because it gives him great play style
pluses. I guess I could customize those
and it also gives him a great stat boost
and he's still only 96 rated to put him
into future evos. So that was the free
EVO that we had yesterday in the game.
Let's go to SBC's where guys there was
an interesting story developing
yesterday before content because the 85
plus player pick that we got on Monday
was going to expire. EA changed the
expiration date on our old 85 plus
player pick to release a new one
yesterday because as we talked about and
I don't think my rant video yesterday or
what you would call a TFA rant video
complaining about how bad value the 835
plus player pick was. I don't think that
actually had any influence on them
changing this. I think they saw the
entire community thinking that it was
terrible and they decided to change the
requirements. It has been changed for
the better. It is only six rare golds to
get this one of 385 plus pick done. Is
it really that much better? It's not as
good as the 84 plus player pick, but
it's at least something. I would be
putting my gold rares in there instead
of the 85 by two now. So, as you can
see, I did not favor the 85x2 anymore in
my favorites list of SBC's here in terms
of the unlimited repeatable grind that
we're doing right now. Instead, I am
back to doing the 85 plus player pick
because you are getting an 87 plus most
often as one of the three choices in
that pick. And that of course allows you
to keep doing the repeatable footies
provisions upgrade. So, I would
recommend doing those with your gold
rares now for sure. Now, the other SBCs
we had yesterday were a new upgrade
pack, the 87 by7 returned and still very
annoyingly with two team of the week,
team of the season, festival football or
footies required in that one. And we
also had the Aiden Heaven SBC Manchester
United center back who can be evolved as
you see here. He goes into like the
posture check 100 footies token evo if
you've still got that one and gets a
nice defense physical and passing boost
there. Fits into a couple of other
evolutions as well. He is cheap. He's
one squad only 29,000
coins to do. So there also yesterday was
a 95 plus festival football or footies
team one through team three player pick.
I almost forgot about that one because I
blitzed through those with my father
right after content. Uh, I did pack a
really cool 96rated Jed Spence Festival
Football Star Performer from uh, what
game was it that he got that card? I
forget what game it was from the World
Cup that he got that card. But there are
cards like that that are kind of
expensive and actually worth stuff via
this player pick here. This is also an
opportunity to chase the 99s. So would
highly recommend getting that done with
your high rated FOD. And that was all
the content that we had yesterday. I
kind of wanted to go through that pretty
quick because the real content that I
want to discuss is what is about to drop
in this game tomorrow with the start of
season 10 pre-season and we've got a lot
of leaks. We know a lot of the players
that are going to be inside of this.
We're going to be getting 99 stat
boosting evos for max 98 rated cards.
But the whole premise of this next
season that we are about to be getting
is to give us rewards for FC27. and it's
play 26 to get rewards in 27. Usually
there's stuff involved in rewards like
celebrations, kits, and some of that
cosmetic stuff. But of course, the most
important thing is packs. So, that is
the one thing that we're going to be
looking forward to even starting to earn
tomorrow when this new season does come
out. Currently, in season 9, as we've
talked about, if you get to level 30,
you will get an 82x5 pack in FC27. It's
not been advertised very well, but we've
been trying to talk about it whenever
the season pass conversation comes up.
So, if you are trying to get level 30,
today is the last full day that you can
do that. Make sure you get in the
seasonal tab here in objectives and look
through Spain and Portugal SP chase.
Make sure you even go and play pro clubs
or manager or player career because
there's a lot of SP available there as
well. But make sure you get level 30
this season because that's the first
FC27 reward that we can claim. But
there's going to be more that we'll be
working towards starting tomorrow. And
this just starts with the season pass
because guys, the next promo that we
should be having after this should also
go handinhand with this season as it
will most likely be called preseason as
well. Now, here's just a look back into
what we were able to get. Sorry for the
flashbang with the very bright web page
last year as we went from FC25 into
FC26. Now, you can see here that
completing the season ladder, last
year's preseason um season gave an 84x5
pack in FC26. And as you can see here
through the rest of the promo, we had
objectives, we had SBC's, even evos
giving out these rewards inside of FC26,
of course. So this year should that be
playing FC26 to get FC27 rewards. So the
beginning of that will be starting, of
course, tomorrow with this new season.
Also in the preseason promo last year, I
know this is related to the promo and
not related to the season past. So this
probably won't be until next Friday.
Again, there's still one more week of
footies. Next Friday should be the
actual preseason promo. This is where we
had the Gritty to Glory Cup where we
were able to get the Gritty Celebration
in FC26. The only way to get it was to
play this tournament and then you would
get the uh item unlocked in FC26. It was
pretty crazy. And having the gritty this
year kind of showed that you played in
the endame of FC25 when most people
weren't really wanting to play. So, a
lot of people are motivated by this
endgame season, the preseason grind,
because it does feel cool to play the
endgame, have some footies fun, right?
And then also work towards getting
rewards inside of FC27 if you are
planning on playing it. So, there's kind
of that cool aspect to this promo here
where you can get rewards in kind of two
places instead of just once. Now, there
usually is a later date than the start
of the year that these preseason rewards
are given out. that's always in the fine
print like when and how will these
carryover rewards come out in FC25 they
came out in October I think in FC26 at
the start of this last year it was about
the same thing it was right around the
you know like second or third week of
the year it wasn't immediately after you
logged in so that's one thing to kind of
mention as well but I mean you took a
look at some of those packs right and
845 is not bad and 87 81 by7 is not bad
and 82 x10 is not terrible that can at
least give you a couple of extra fodder
cards that would be helpful with the new
SBC's or maybe somebody who does
actually go into your team. They're all
untradeable, but it is still worth
talking about. And the last thing I want
to discuss before we look at some
players that are going to be in the
season pass starting tomorrow is one way
that you can actually get FC27 rewards
right now. We just don't know what the
rewards are. So, this was brought to my
attention a couple of days ago on the
stream. If you play one game in the
group stages of the world's game mode,
which is if you back out of Ultimate
Team, it is just very simple and easy to
enter this world's game mode. It's the
it's the World Cup mode, right? It is in
this main menu screen right down here,
the World's Game mode. So, if you start
it's kind of a career modeesque, you
know, play through the tournament
situation there. If you start a save
there and win a game or play a game in
the group stages, then you will get a
reward. And also, if you complete all
regions in the Journey of Nations inside
of Ultimate Team, you will qualify for
some FC27 rewards as well. And that
basically just means if you get
Meadona's objective done, which I am
still working on at the moment. I have
not completed Diego Armando Maradona
five play style plus card. Kind of fell
behind on that one. I'm working on it,
right? I'm actually just working with
the squad right now. Almost done with
the Europe objective. But if you
complete this Meadona and if you play
one game in the group stages of the
world's game mode, you'll get SC27
rewards. Again, what's not known to us
is what the actual rewards are. I cannot
find anywhere in this website. It was
not really publicly talked about or even
leaked what these rewards are going to
be, but there are a couple of ways you
can get FC27 rewards by playing FC26.
Now, now speaking of the season pass,
we're kind of all over the place talking
about preseason, the promo a little bit,
and then the season pass as well. But
back to what is going to be in the last
30 levels of FC26.
We've got a huge list of transferred
players. Pouteas, Ary, Vieiraa, Cordoba,
Casemiro, Andre Santos, A Gonzalo Ramos,
Bernardo Silva, Harry Wilson, Robertson,
S and Jimenez. Now, we've got some
official stats for a few of these
players as we've been looking at this
week. Here once again to refresh our
memories is the 99 dribble Bernardo
Silva. 99 physical Casemiro 99 defending
a of course they're all footies card so
they will be getting four or five play
style pluses and these will all be in
the season pass. Amy has got 99 pace
with this Barca transfer of course and
Patrick Vieira with 29 stats. That looks
like the card that might be at the very
end of the season pass right there. Five
place without pluses on the Vieiraa icon
card. So that one is looking pretty
good. Now, as a part of the season pass
as well, it's been leaked that we are
going to be getting 98 rated, 99 stat
upgrade evolutions. That sounds like the
EVOs that might be towards the end of
the season pass at those higher levels
that give some pretty crazy stats. I
wouldn't be surprised if there was an
EVO at some point at the end of FC26 as
well that gave 99 overall. I mean, we're
not quite there yet. I mean, let's be
honest, EA don't seem to want us to get
99 raides right now because they're
making the pack away for those cards so
incredibly impossible. But those are
some of the other rewards that we'll be
looking for in the season pass tomorrow.
Watch out for leaks today because you
guys know how season passes go and how
leaks go in this game. Usually stuff is
leaked beforehand and usually we'll
probably see a leak of the full season
pass and the players specifically and
some more EVOs and other content inside
of it. That will most likely be leaked
today. So, keep an eye out for that.
Now, let's bring it to what's happening
on Friday. Of course, season pass
tomorrow at Rivals rewards time. By the
way, be careful if you don't want to
claim your footies tokens at rivals
rewards if you're trying to save those
if you already have a lot. This is just
a reminder. Don't claim your rivals
rewards if you're not actually wanting
to in order to not waste any footies
tokens. Just figured I'd say that
because a lot of people were talking
about that this past week. But what's
happening on Friday is footies team
four. Before we get into the actual
preseason promo, we're going to have
footies team 4, which is the final week
of this pink card promo. And this is the
official players list of cards that will
be coming out. We've got Issach
Barcoola, Harry Kane after I just
started evoing him. Sophia Wilson,
Kartchawi, Diane, Sadio Mané, Dali,
Bran, Henipi, Semeno, Onabatier, Yuro,
Tierney, Lavell, Doug, Luis, Kulabali,
Wambasaka, and then down here towards
the bottom, these are all predicted
stats by the way. We don't know exactly
who's going to be 96, 97, 98, 99, but
some FIFA legends, cult legends you
would almost call them. Gendzy, always
been a FIFA legend there. Jaw Moutinho,
uh Tristan Blackman from Vancouver White
Caps, one of the paciest center backs in
the game with a silver card. Pretty
crazy item there. Ryan Cessnon, Chucky
Lazano, Eluki Lozano now playing in the
MLS. That's going to be a footies card.
Jack Butland, Adopo, real ones remember
Adopo's EVO cards from FC24. That was a
absolutely broken card in FC24 Evos.
Even Eric Dyer is getting into this
team. Now, apart from some of those fun
cards, I look at this squad, curious
about what the actual stats are going to
be on some of these players, and I
think, is this really a step up? Because
it was kind of feeling like footies team
four would be a step up from what teams
one, two, and three were. And even with
the leaked icon players, we were hoping
for some really good stuff. Sure, there
are a Gareth Bale, a R9, and an Iniesta,
and Alex Morgan that are league to be
coming along with a key leading to
Cantana, but it's definitely the icons
list here that I think carries this team
for. I think the regular team of
players, I'm yeah, excited for Harry
Kane, but the rest of it's just like,
okay, they'll be fun cards to try.
Hopefully, five play style plus
objective evos that we can put on these
footies cards will be more common in
game starting on Friday. But that is the
leaked team of team four players from
footies in terms of the regular footies
cards and then the icons and the heroes.
So that's kind of all the leaks that we
have for FC26 right now. I know kind of
a lot of information. We'll probably
have some more leaks ahead of the season
pass that does come out tomorrow. But
really tomorrow what we'll probably
discussing is what all is happening on
Friday. Will EA bring out some extra
added juice, some extra fun to this
footies team 4, or will it kind of stay
the same all things considered with how
the pack weight is, with how the grind
is and stuff like that? Let's hope for
some change. There's a lot of SBC's, we
talked about this a couple days ago,
there's a lot of SBC's that are
expiring. There's maybe a fighting
chance, maybe a chance that the 84* 10
could go unlimited repeatable. just to
shout that out because this timer is
counting down towards Friday. There's a
there's a chance. All right, I'm telling
you there is a chance. Also counting
down towards um looks like Thursday
would be the repeatable footies
provisions upgrade. We might have a new
pack grind coming our way in the next
couple of days. Now, last thing I want
to talk about in terms of leaks and then
we'll talk about today's content. We've
got a couple of icon pieces of news to
discuss because this is official. This
is Liverpool's official Twitter account
posting the pre-order icon design with
Fernando Torres. And a lot of people are
noticing this is an 89 rated Fernando
Torres. His base icon card in FC right
now is 88 rated. So, he's getting an
upgrade for the pre-order edition
because again, notice that card type.
See the kind of extra white around the
edges. And there's just a couple of
different things about this card type.
That is the pre-order icon design. So,
he is the first pre-order icon to be
leaked, and I don't think he's going to
be the only one for now. A lot of people
are looking for Sergio Aguero. There was
actually a web page that was dropped
yesterday that is a link with Aguero on
it announcing him as an icon. Some of
the internet sleuths inside of the FC
community found that yesterday. So,
that's one thing to be watching out for.
I think we're going to get some official
FC27 icon news very, very soon. But it
has been leaked and these are probably
correct names here for the full list of
icons coming to 27. It's been leaked
that Veron Aguero Pepe, Foriga,
Nagasato, White, Rhysa, but call him
Rumin, Heath, and Sinclair
have all been added to come as new icons
in F27. And the rumor is that there's
other names like potentially David Silva
and Arhan Robin that EA could be adding
later on during the year. kind of like
they added Kempus and Revelino this
year. This is going to spark a whole lot
of conversation and we're going to have
to discuss this as we go throughout the
summer for sure. I'm going to wait until
it's fully official to have a real
conversation about some of the MC27 icon
choices that they're adding in here, but
a lot of people are saying they feel
icons don't feel as special anymore
because there's so many of them. EA keep
adding and adding and adding and then
like we don't lose any icons, which
would be very hard to drop icons off,
don't get me wrong. A lot of people are
fans of every icon that are on this
game, but at some point icons lose a
little bit of their regality, their
their hype, if you will, their
uniqueness, I think, if there are so
many of them that are in the game. I
don't know. We'll talk about that more
in the future, of course, as we get
closer and closer to FC27.
Let's talk about today's content,
though, on Wednesday, guys. What are we
expecting? We're expecting a couple of
things. First of all, a new footies
guaranteed player pick. I've been
skipping these. I'll keep it a buck 50
because there haven't been good pulls
from these for most people. I know they
are pretty cheap. You know what? Before
the content drop today, I should
probably rip the team two player pick
all three times because this is just one
squad and that should be pretty easy to
get done. Maybe I do get lucky and get a
97, 98 or 99. I should try those out.
But we should get another one of these
today for team number three. A one of
three footies team three player pick.
So, watch out for that. Of course, SBC's
for players. We're getting one every
single day. Evos. We're getting one
every single day. So, that should be a
part of today's content as well. And of
course, it is the swaps SBC day refresh.
And these are actually set to expire on
Thursday. So, if you do want to get your
tokens done inside of SBC's with these
swap SBCs, I would keep an eye on first
of all the FOD prices. If you need to
buy 89s or 84s or whatever it may be to
get this done, I would do it ASAP
because these cards are probably going
to spike up into the content drop today.
84s right now are only about 1,000
coins, 1,200 coins. They could be going
to 1.5 to 1.7, maybe even like 2K. I
mean, shoot, Locatelli was 2K yesterday.
Right now, he's 1,000 coins. Yeah, time
to get on bids if you want to make some
lowbudget investments there. I'd say the
same thing for the 89s. I'm seeing Pedri
and Mariona at the low 4K range. Yeah,
buy that. I mean, this is probably 5 and
a half to 6K uh tomorrow around the
content drop time when these SBCs are
refreshing and a lot of people are going
in their footy swap tokens to also count
for this week's total. So, that's one
thing I do want to mention. And then, of
course, guys, it is a Wednesday. And
what we've been saying all week is these
footies team three cards are probably
going to drop in price today because
guess what? They are going to get packed
again tradable from EA dropping a
tradable 625,000 coin pack in the store.
So these cards will probably drop into
content. I bet they drop after content
as well. And then this is the time frame
that we kind of bought the footies team
two cards last week. If you guys
remember buying Pyor, we talked about
buying Verts, Modric, Gabrielle. So many
of these cards have absolutely flown
Kimich. I bought Kimich for 480,000
coins. row is 700K.
So, I like footy's team three as
investments, but I think we just got to
wait for their prices to drop today and
then we'll kind of be looking at maybe
who the best investments from this team
might be. Somebody like Olivia Garude,
somebody like Embumo, maybe even
somebody like Baldi who's holding his
price incredibly incredibly well at
310,000 coins. Baldi always does this.
He's always super hyped, right? He's
been as low as 280, as high as 330 in
the last couple of days. So, if this guy
drops to like 270, 275 after content
today, that would be the type of buy
that I would want to be making. Now, the
icons and heroes are going to drop
today, too, but I wouldn't like
investing in those as much as I like the
footies regular cards because, yeah,
sure, some of the cards from last week's
uh footies team two of icons have gone
up good. Like Marcelo, he was 1.4 4 mil
and sure now he's up to 1.7 but like
some of the rises that we saw from the
regular team too last week my goodness
like the Kimich that we were just
talking about like the pyor I bought her
for 450,000 coins now she's 660 in just
a few days up over 200,000 coins per
card there are so many great examples of
players Iran Kunda was 50k he's 100 he's
about to be 110,000 coins he was 40k bro
that's the type of buy that you're
looking that middle to low tier budget
that a lot of people would like to buy.
If I had to take a guess from footies
team three of who could do an Iran Kunda
like last week,
I would say keep an eye on Joe Gomez. 95
paced, 97 defending, 96 physical, can
play both right back, left back, and
center back. That would be somebody that
I would keep my eye on as a 96 rated
card. I'm also thinking about players
that I have not packed very much.
Haven't seen Joe Gomez once. Haven't
seen Baldi once. I think Lala I may not
have even packed as well. He's 30,000
coins. That would be a good card to keep
on your watch list, too, for a lowbudget
investment. Love Jerude, Hemp, and Bumo,
and even Spinazola, I think, could be a
good card as well to pick up that could
rise out of packs. But wait for their
prices to drop today and then get
involved for a pick up there. But that
should be today's content on Wednesday.
And we'll probably, like I said already,
get some leaks surrounding Team 4 of
footies, maybe some SBC and EVO content
we'll be watching out for news for. And
of course, the next season, season 10,
preseason on FC26,
gives a little bit of an extra new twist
to the grind. At this stage of the game,
if you're going to play FC27, it feels
kind of worth it to log in. So, we will
see what rewards we can be earning
towards in FC27 today and tomorrow on
FC26. We'll be here for it, guys. We'll
be streaming today on Wednesday as well.
Make sure you come by the stream here or
of course on Twitch or Tik Tok. We'll be
live there covering everything that
comes out, leaks and news. and we'll be
looking forward to the new season
tomorrow and footies team 4 on Friday.
But that's the video from me. If you did
enjoy it, drop a thumbs up on it.
Comment down below if you have any
questions and of course subscribe if
you're new. And I'll see you in the
stream today. It's been Nate with
account. Have a happy Wednesday. Peace
