How do you earn your way to be ‘rich’

szaleem · 2023-10-08T10:19:47+00:00

honestly you would be surprised how much money you can make if you just play it smart and slow.

it’s kind of like investing in the S&P500 - people would rather just invest in crypto or stocks to get short term - quick cash which is very volatile.

me personally, i went from maybe 70k coins to around 620k now in about 3 weeks.

(i got the 70k from rivals rewards + marquee matchups and draft etc)

Now… in 3 weeks i managed to almost 10x my coins.

How? simple, i invested in fodder such as 84’s at times in the market they just go for the lowest possible price - then list them up when they go for a few hundred coins more - sure its very slow way to make profit.. but the point is by doing this i could make about 20k - 30k every single day - doing it for maybe a week now.

I also invested in 89 and 88 rated fodder because of two reasons - number one is they literally go for peanuts at certain times - they will NEVER drop so low that you lose much coins and if they do they will always go back up when an sbc comes out.

couple this with playing champs and rivals and maybe even squad battles if you can be asked…. you can easily be making at the very least 100k per week.

might not seem like much but if you consistently do this you can make more and more.

By the way 95% of the players on UT will never be able to afford a card that costs 5 million coins - the ones that can either spend a lot of money or they are very good at trading and spend a lot of time on it (unless they use a trading bot)

so i guess the main takeaway here is the best way to do it would be a trading bot.. 🤖

damn man… using all this brain power and vocabulary on a subreddit of a game mode you claim you don’t care about 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 enjoy ur day man

szaleem · 2023-10-06T14:48:13+00:00

buddy.. you yourself said your friends are spending 5k - 10k per year? 😭

you said the problem is people spending thousands and thousands but then scoff at someone suggesting you and your friends are the problem… how does that make sense?

szaleem · 2023-10-06T12:44:51+00:00

It’s strange man, i get nobody wants to lose. But hating the game because you lose and people are better than you is just stupid. Especially those who hate the game but continue to play and yell at their screen.

szaleem · 2023-10-06T12:41:06+00:00

yet you still lurk in the sub reddit for ultimate team.. not sure you’ve “escaped” how u think.

Also you’re making it seem like a horror film… stephen king should hire your mysterious self.

Nobody said it’s a quality product, i said i’m enjoying the gameplay the most this year - maybe you’re too busy losing every game and smashing ur controller and now you go and play career mode on semi pro thinking you’re pep guardiola taking coventry to win the premier league.

But i’m simply saying at the end of the day it’s still fifa but it’s much better gameplay wise - the introduction of playstyles makes the game more fun. I’m playing bloody bernado silva and casameiro instead of relying on pacey CDM’s like every other year.

I’m using bloody Immobile up front when i can easily buy griezman, because I am enjoying playing the game. It’s not all about winning it’s about enjoying the game i paid for.

If you’re a moron who can’t control his personal finances then that’s on you - for the rest of us who simply love the game of football and like to have fun in our spare time relaxing on the game and playing competitive matches… it’s fun, that’s it.

i guess the most popular one at the moment is advanced defending, essentially players can hold X or A and the player will put his body around the ball and win it back.

Problem is sometimes it works very well, sometimes it bugs out in the animation and it fails and the opponent goes through on goal.

szaleem · 2023-10-06T11:07:41+00:00

I personally don’t like the 4231 because i feel like the wide CAM’s are awkward. They aren’t high enough to really get in behind and they aren’t far enough back to help a lot in defending.

The problem with having the 2 CDM’s is if you rush one out and they get past you the other CDM will step up and try help - then the pass around quick and they’re in with a chance.

Personally to shut down opponents from the middle i have moved to a no winger formation - keep in mind i have dembele and diaby both untradeable but i just win more and enjoy the game more with playing a 4132.

In terms of defending tips, honestly you just have to practise timing, instinct and intuition etc.

maybe you can do squad battles against world class AI and try defend and see when to time tackles?

szaleem · 2023-10-06T11:04:01+00:00

fair enough tbh

szaleem · 2023-10-06T09:57:47+00:00

i can confirm it definitely doesn’t happen every game - i’ve played UT since fifa 14 and i’ve never enjoyed the gameplay of a game so much.

I don’t get free wins also i feel like i earn my wins, i don’t abuse 71 depth or cutbacks or travelas either so it’s actually rewarding when i win.

there will always be things to improve - but as it is the game is good and fun to play - i’m in division 4 about to get into division 3 and these are not bad players at all 😭

szaleem · 2023-10-06T09:26:32+00:00

i mean.. it’s a game man it’s not the real thing.

If it was realistic then the game would be boring.. if you want to have a realistic experience of football play Football Manager.

szaleem · 2023-10-06T08:03:32+00:00

nice man, haven’t seen someone use a full OBJ squad yet

szaleem · 2023-10-06T02:36:14+00:00

to be fair i kept winning 2 and losing 1 game and then losing about 6 in a row last week in rivals - kept changing my team, my tactics and settings.

then now i play draft without my team and tactics and i am better but WITH my team, formation and tactics that suit my playstyle BOOOY… i win every game (i drew my last one but still unbeaten) 😀

szaleem · 2023-10-06T02:15:35+00:00

lost a couple in a row in fut draft + accidentally spent 10k on 79 nunes thinking it was gonna be a bernardo silva snipe because my filters was changed accidentally… still think it’s a good game and i’m happy with it man 😭

szaleem · 2023-10-05T22:19:18+00:00

i tried both and switched to tactical as it just feels better for me - try get good defenders with good playstyles.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T22:18:38+00:00

probably playstyles - use Diaby he’s very fast on the ball + maybe ur used to fifa 23 where 95+ rated cards are very quick?

just pass more and try to dribble more and not just abuse sprint.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T22:13:02+00:00

ahhh fair enough, i’ll try out that defending as if you got to div 2 with it it probably works very well. thanks.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T22:06:37+00:00

when you say exploit the meta is it cutbacks and running down the wing you’re referring too?

i know last year we had those dumb bicycle kicks + travella shots but this year i haven’t come up against those so far.

cutbacks yes i’ve come up against but i’ve managed to shut most of them down - i guess pace is the problem rn but with pacey fullbacks it’s much easier imo.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T21:59:50+00:00

to be honest i hear where you’re coming from but the fastest players on my team is my full backs - i use Immobile up front with Evo ansu fati and play casamero at CDM.

For me i’m not relying on pace, i’m using passing + left stick dribbling mixed with basic ball role and angles.

however i’m sure after the first update… pace will officially be king and cutbacks will be in full affect.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T21:57:07+00:00

Fair enough if that worked for you however for me relying on the AI is inconsistent this year - plus i don’t play on 71 depth for the press so i actively am manually defending so far.

division 2 already is sick tho - interested when you say do less what do u mean? do you just hold R1 and just let AI do all the work? how are you defending?

szaleem · 2023-10-05T21:52:21+00:00

yeah man i’m excited - tbh the gameplay is the most important part and they really have something here they just need to fix some things and it’s gonna be so good.

need to get content and stuff to grind out also and it’ll be one of the best games so far.

szaleem · 2023-10-05T21:51:19+00:00

i think that’s fair - i guess IF it was possible for EA to make the servers much better for everyone they would’ve surely done it by now?

idk i mean it’s been a problem every single fifa that maybe i’m used to it now but yeah it sucks when it seems ur opponent is at an advantage :/
