Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC in FIFA 22 – 360K Coins!

The Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC is back in FIFA 22. After you could get the base versions of the icons some weeks ago, now the stronger cards are added. What is the cheapest way to complete the SBC and is it worth it at all?

Icons are one of the most popular cards in FIFA. No matter if R9, Ronaldinho, Henry or Vieira: Many of the legends always have really cool cards, which usually also fit pretty well into the meta. Of course, there are also some stinkers that you don’t like to see in your pack.

Meanwhile FIFA 22 has arrived in December and besides the currently still running Versus event, publisher EA has now dropped the first Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC. Should you complete the challenge? And how do you do it as cheaply as possible? Stay tuned and you’ll find out.

Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC Overview
First of all: The new Icon SBC will run for six more days, i.e. until 19.12.2021. Furthermore, it is unfortunately not repeatable if you want to give away a lot of players in your club. As you can see in the following overview, it’s not as much as you might think. Then there should be enough players for e.g. Vinicius Jr. POTM, right? Well, here you have the listing for the Base or Mid Icon Upgrade SBC:

As you can see, the SBC is not that complex, especially for EA. 3 challenges and for each one there are even nice packs on top. There have definitely been icon SBCs with less value in the past years. Nevertheless 360K still bang in of course… besides, the Prime Icons will probably be released soon, so why not just wait and see?

Is the Base or Mid Icon SBC in FIFA 22 worth it?
To be honest, we are a bit torn. Let’s say: If you currently have a lot of players in your club, the SBC is worth it for you. But if you only have 400K coins and have to buy everything, you should better leave the SBC alone.

FIFA Squad Building Challenges (short SBC)

The FIFA Squad Building Challenges (SBC for short) are about putting together a team according to certain specifications. They are an important part of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) and bring coins, valuable packs or special cards when fulfilled.

For the most part, you’ll have to line up eleven players that you have in your club and then send this squad off. These players will then disappear from your club. In return, you’ll receive a reward, such as a pack or a special card. As with FIFA 19, FIFA 20 and FIFA 21 we will report about the latest SBCs for FIFA 22 here and help you to judge if it is worth to complete a challenge.

START WITH THE SQUAD BUILDING CHALLENGES

In Squad Building Challenges (SBCs), you can use your player items to build unique teams based on various challenge conditions. You can then submit these to receive bonuses.

Here’s how:

• From the FIFA 22 main menu, select the FIFA Ultimate Team section.
• In the home page section, select Squad Building Challenges and call them up.
• Select the challenge you want to complete. They are grouped by category.

Create a team.

• Using items from your club or from the transfer market, build a team that meets the challenge conditions. Usually this is a mix of player quality, team chemistry, team value, nationalities, leagues and clubs.

Master the Challenge to submit your team and receive bonuses.

• All SBC submissions cannot be undone. Once you complete an SBC, the submitted items will be permanently removed from your club in exchange for bonuses. Our consultants cannot restore submitted items.
• For some SBCs, you will only have a limited amount of time to complete them. Once a challenge has expired, you will no longer be able to submit a team.

More details about SBCs

1. Some SBCs consist of multiple challenges with individual bonuses and a larger overall completion bonus. Other challenges are single challenges.
2. Some SBCs are repeatable. You have a chance to get different bonuses for each team submission, but you might also get the same bonus.
3. SBCs are available in all FIFA 22 versions, but they can vary depending on the platform. Bonuses can also vary from platform to platform.
