00:00What's up guys, Nepenthes here, and welcome back to another SC25 video
00:05where today we're going to take a look at the content to hopefully,
00:09hopefully, like block out the bad vibes around Arsenal drawing with Manchester United.
00:17You know, historically, a draw against Man United would have been a good result.
00:21This year, I'm so sad, man. We've just fallen off hard this season.
00:27Obviously, the injuries don't help, but everybody deals with injuries, don't they?
00:30And we just, we don't look at it, man.
00:32We look like we've given up the Premier League weeks, months ago,
00:36and there's no fight in those teams.
00:37There's no fight in those boys up front, which is a bit of a frustrating situation.
00:41However, we're going to see what EA have given us for today, guys,
00:44and see if we've got anything fun on a Sunday.
00:47Sunday's pretty, pretty usually a good day for like festive fun for SPCs.
00:57That's, they were the words.
00:59The foot birthday party is in full swing. Time to hit the pitch and celebrate.
01:02Complete these challenges to unpack rewards and keep the fun going.
01:06All rewards run tradable. So the group reward is an 83x5.
01:10The first one is play two matches for a 75x5.
01:14Keep three clean sheets for an 80x3. Play four rush matches for an 83x2.
01:22You only have to do five of these to get the group reward as well.
01:25Score one goal in eight games for an 83x3.
01:28Win eight matches for an 82x5.
01:31And play six matches in rivals or squad battles for an 82x7.
01:34And the group reward is an 83x5. Not bad. Not bad.
01:42Yeah, we don't mind it. We don't mind those things.
01:45In FC Pro, there's nothing coaching. There's nothing in milestones.
01:48There is nothing. So let's take a look at Evolutions.
01:53If you want to use the best players in FC 25, there's only one sure way to get them.
01:57U7buy.com gives some of the best prices around for you to buy Ultimate Team coins.
02:01It's fast, safe, and reliable.
02:03And if you use code NEP at checkout, you will get 8% off their prices.
02:07So check the link in the description.
02:09And so with that, guys, let's take a look at the daily Evo that we should have today.
02:15We've got Put Birthday Striker Glow Up.
02:26That's it. That's okay. It's another paid Evo.
02:2835k. Overall max 74. Position Striker.
02:33Playstyles is maximum 10. Playstyle pluses is maximum zero.
02:41What does it give? It gives 7 Physical, Finesse Shot, Trickster, Poacher, and Target Forward plus,
02:499 Pace, 17 Shooting, 19 Short Passing, 20 Long Passing, 22 Curve, 13 Agility,
02:5811 Vision, 12 Balance, 15 Reactions, and 15 Ball Control, along with False 9++,
03:0418 Dribbling, 15 Composure, 20 Heading, 4-star Weak Foot, Trickster plus, oh my, and Technical.
03:12And then it gives 4-star Skill Moves.
03:14So again, makes somebody 5-star, 5-star.
03:16Also, delightfully, as you can see there, guys, this is a grassroots greats card.
03:20So really good for Chemistry.
03:21It gives Advanced Forward plus plus, Finesse Shot plus, First Touch, Rapid, and more Shooting on top.
03:30What would this Sessinia look like? It'd obviously go 5-star, 5-star.
03:35I mean, listen, for 35k, that's not bad.
03:39I want to see somebody that doesn't already have some playstyles and has, like, reasonably low pace.
03:43What's Lingard got? So he's got Tiki Taka and Technical.
03:46What about this Stevens? What's she got?
03:47She's got just Incisive Pass.
03:50I want to see how good the card looks afterwards.
03:54So she gains Rapid, First Touch, Technical, Trickster plus, Finesse Shot plus, 5-star, 5-star, and then decent stats.
04:04Nothing crazy-crazy, but for 35k or 200 FC points, that's really not bad.
04:11If you have got a striker that has got, like, a lot of playstyles already, like Jesse Lingard,
04:17you know, he's going to end up with a decent card again.
04:20Goes into 5-star, 5-star.
04:22I just... Trickster playstyle plus is really poor, isn't it?
04:27I think I would be looking for someone like this guy, Yvan Jaim, because he's got good base passing already.
04:33Obviously, passing doesn't get boosted. He's got good playstyles already.
04:40Yeah, I don't know. There's going to be some... I think a Sessinia might be one of the better options,
04:45but there are going to be a few other pretty decent options.
04:51This isn't... This isn't a bad evolution.
04:55I also just don't think it's a great evolution either.
04:59Does it even boost passing at all? Oh, it does boost passing a bit, doesn't it?
05:03Gives, like, 20 passing.
05:05Okay, we'll see. We'll see what the best options are with that in mind.
05:13Do we get a new training camp today? No, we do not.
05:16So, let's have a look at these SBCs and sees what Weez is going to do.
05:22We've got the 83 by 10 back again.
05:26In terms of a player, Tadea, we have got...
05:32Must be another icon today. Oh, no, we've got flashback Danny DaCosta.
05:37I wonder why he's not, like, the front of the pile.
05:40So, this is flashing back 2. Earn a flashback, Danny DaCosta,
05:42celebrating his inclusion in 2020 for birthday.
05:45He's had some cracking cards over the years.
05:47This card doesn't look, like, too, too great,
05:49but 6'2", 5 star, 5 star, right backhand, right mid, good pace,
05:55and then, truth be told, just bang average stats,
05:58but he's only 88 rated and he's got whip pass plus and intercept plus,
06:03which is really nice. He's also got jockey, block, slide tackle,
06:07bruiser, relentless, ping pass, and trickster,
06:10and then has got wide midfielder plus plus at right mid
06:12and attacking wing back and wing back plus plus at right back.
06:16Those roles are very nice. He's 6'2", which is nice.
06:20I tell you what, guys, because I know he will be evo-able,
06:23he might even fit into some evos now,
06:25but because he is evo-able, like, off the jump,
06:28this card could be good, like, very good.
06:31The price needs to be right. It's two squads.
06:33I have a feeling that it just has to be 83, 84, no informs.
06:37That's what I'm going for. It's an 84 and an 85, no informs.
06:41At least it's no informs. It's a little more expensive than I would have liked,
06:45but it's not terrible, and we'll have a look at what evolutions he can go into immediately.
06:50We have got the brand new 87 plus mixed icon players pick,
06:55and one of three, Centurions, Thunderstruck, Winter Wildcard,
06:59or Team of the Year icon player items rated 87 or higher.
07:02Finally, finally, base icons are not in here anymore.
07:08The requirements, 87 with an inform, 88 and 88 rated.
07:13I don't know if that's more expensive or not.
07:16Probably won't catch me doing that. I'd rather put my squads into player SBCs.
07:19And then we've got the 87 plus mixed hero player pick.
07:22This is one of three, Trackstars Prime or Winter Wildcard, 87 or higher.
07:26It's an 84 and an 87 with one inform.
07:28I think that's the same as last week, that one right there.
07:31But the icon setup is there, guys. Gamescrashed has it.
07:35Beautiful for me, eh? Beautiful. Oh, it fully has.
07:39And then we also got this one here, Five Star Baller Evo.
07:44Earn an Evo consumable, boosting a maximum 89 rated overall player item
07:48to five star skill moves and weak foot, and adding the trickster play style.
07:53And this is going to... What the... Hello?
07:57An 86 rated, an 86 with an inform, and an 87 rated squad
08:03to make someone five star, five star.
08:08You have lost your damn minds.
08:13I thought this, when it was three squads, I thought it was going to be like a gold squad,
08:18an 82 rated squad, and an 83 rated squad, or something like that.
08:23That is...
08:30That isn't. That just isn't.
08:32That might be the single worst SPC we've had this year.
08:36I can't think of one off the top of my head that I've looked at
08:38and just thought that is going to be the single hardest pass I've ever seen.
08:44We've got a daily login upgrade. It's back again, guys.
08:46As always, go and get it done. If you forget it, you will regret it.
08:50We've got day five now.
08:53So we'll go and grab that pack and see what that's about.
08:55Well, the 85 plus player pick is back again.
08:58The 82 combo upgrade is there still.
09:03But unfortunately, again today, no menu grind, guys. No menu grind.
09:06We've got foot birthday challenge two.
09:09It's there for two days for a prime gold players pack, untradable.
09:12And it's going to require 31 chemistry, 75 rated, one rare.
09:18One club is maximum four players.
09:20Same league is maximum five players and countries is maximum two.
09:23So you just got to do... I don't have any players in the club for it,
09:25but you just got to do like a one nation squad.
09:28Just like fill your squad. If I actually went squad builder
09:32and then went like silver and went to country and region
09:37and just put it to like England, I'd probably be like most of the way done.
09:41Yeah, it's just the 75 rated that's not quite there.
09:46So if I then put in an English player that I have got,
09:53have I got any like 80, 82, 83 rated?
09:57So we've got like a Jarrah Bowen or Alton, he can go in.
10:01That should probably be just about enough.
10:03Let me take that Jesse Lingard out. Damn, that's not enough.
10:05That's still only 74 rated.
10:09Let's go and get another one then, I suppose, right?
10:11What have we got? Connor Gallagher, Rico Henry.
10:13He'll do. He'll do. And that's it.
10:18Oh, same league. Good. How have I got?
10:23I've got too much from the same league here.
10:25Let me go and get then Mr.
10:27Gallagher and pop him in that centre midfield role over Kwameka.
10:33Easily done, right? Brilliant. Brilliant again.
10:36Just what we like to see. Yeah.
10:42The reason why that Evolution is so god-awful is
10:47because foot birthday cards are all 5-star, 5-star
10:49and this is saying you can have a maximum 89 rated player
10:56that you can take to 5-star, 5-star.
10:57But the truth of the matter is based on how EA have done Evolutions this year in general,
11:03almost every player that you have that has been through Evos
11:07that you're trying to get an Evo chain on or something like that.
11:09They will already have at least 5-star, 4-star or 4-star, 5-star.
11:15So I don't know that. I just don't know that it's going to change formation or something, isn't it?
11:22I knew it. I knew it, man. This is always so weird.
11:29We got the right combination of players still.
11:31I knew it was going to change formation and that's why it bugged out.
11:35Yeah, I just don't think it's good.
11:40We don't get a new icon today.
11:43Guys, I came into foot birthday like Wednesday, Thursday last week.
11:47I was getting really excited for foot birthday and you would have seen me on Twitter.
11:51You would have seen me in my videos. Speaking on how much I love foot birthday as a promo,
11:55it's probably my all-time favorite promo.
11:58You know, I've had some great memories and great experiences with the foot birthday promo over the years.
12:03That's not a bad pack to get for what we sent in for it.
12:07And I was really looking forward to it.
12:08I was a little bit underwhelmed on Friday about what we got.
12:13But I thought, you know what? Let EA do what they normally do.
12:16Put out the team, sell their packs and then, you know,
12:19Saturday and Sunday the content will come and it will be good.
12:23It's just not been good, has it?
12:25Hey, birthday. Who's that going to be?
12:28Center back, American. What's her name? Mims or something? Mums.
12:32Mims. I don't remember what her name is. It's something like that.
12:38Sam's, there we go. I knew it was something like that. There we go.
12:41She's only like a 15k card, but better to pack a foot birthday than not.
12:45That's for sure. And then let's have a look at the promo packs to see if we have like a 16 coin pack
12:49or a 10 or a 30 coin pack today. Anything for people, EA?
12:54Or just everything for you? Nope, just everything for you guys.
12:57Okay, that's fine. Gotcha. And then we've got some global limits.
13:02And then some classic packs and we'll rip a little classic pack here just to see.
13:09Nothing good there for me. Alvaro Morata.
13:13He started today. He's playing right now.
13:17And then provisions, nothing and packs for you.
13:22Nothing. Right before we go. I won't have it.
13:27I won't have it yet. Before we go into foot bin,
13:31I was going to go ahead and have a look at the crappers account to see what evos we had available.
13:41Cesinha is obviously like the most popular one. We'll start with this Da Costa.
13:44It's not a terrible price. And as I say, it's a decent card.
13:48And when we look at the ability to evo him. Trickster and skill moves.
13:55Five star baller. Aren't they both the same thing? Free.
13:59Well, they're not free, are they? He can go into the King of Egypt.
14:05That gives him two pace, ten shooting, four passing, three dribbling.
14:09That's not bad, actually. That's not bad.
14:15Yeah, the King of Egypt there gives him a really significant boost.
14:18Takes his shooting up to being absolutely insane.
14:20He's dribbling much better now with an anchor chem style.
14:24I rate that as an SPC. Alternatively with an engine and play him at wing.
14:28Like, I don't mind that. Six foot two, five star, five star.
14:32I'd much prefer to play him as a defender though, so I'd put an anchor on him.
14:35It's just not a bad card like through the King of Egypt.
14:37I had a feeling there would be some fun options for him.
14:41He's mostly down voted, but I get why. As I say,
14:43I think an 83 and then an 84 would have been a far better respected understanding of it.
14:49The icon pick is back and is up voted for the sole reason that base icons are out.
14:55But yeah, it also got way more expensive and so still not worth it.
14:59I absolutely agree. Is this like the same as a level 40 pick with 87 plus, not 88?
15:05Apart from that, I think that was one of four, wasn't it?
15:10Then we've got no base is nice, but I think we need some grassroot great cards at least.
15:14Yeah, and I would agree. We're in that situation.
15:16Like, as I said to you guys in when I was on the game, I won't do this sort of SPC.
15:22I would much prefer, sorry, this SPC. I would much prefer to put an 88, an 88 and an 87 into like,
15:30I don't know, Ronaldo, you know, like that's where I'd put my fodder.
15:36If I was doing something, I wouldn't do SCN either, but I'd put it into Ronaldo.
15:40I certainly wouldn't do this in spite of the fact that we're looking at now Centurions,
15:43Thunderstrucks, Winter Wildcards and Team of the Years.
15:47So when we get those here, so we've got Team of the Year icons.
15:53We've got Centurions and Thunderstrucks and Winter Wildcards.
15:59So let's get those Winter Wildcards. Where are they?
16:02We want Centurions. There's Winter Wildcards.
16:06And then last but not least, the Centurions. Where are they?
16:13There we go, Centurions icons.
16:14And this of course is minimum 87 rated, which means we are removing from the group,
16:21no one, because there's only two 87s anyway.
16:23So at the very least, EA could have made this 88 plus, couldn't they?
16:26Because at that point, or even 89 plus,
16:28because at 88 plus, you're just removing Zambrotta and Sol Campbell.
16:32At 89 plus, you're only removing Veron, Gattuso, Keane, Cole,
16:39Makaleli, Vidic and Dalglish.
16:44And there's still an insane amount of low-rated piles of crud.
16:50And if we look at the best valued icons that we've got available,
16:54Ronaldo, Henry, Pele, Ronaldo, Eusebio, SBC, Pulit, Ham, Cafu, Turam, Mateus, Zidane.
17:08Like, how much is this SBC?
17:12400k.
17:15So you've got over two pages worth of cards that are just completely worthless
17:20compared to the icon SBC and only like 10 to 12,
17:24maybe like 15 cards that are well worth it.
17:27An 89 plus would have been way better.
17:28As I say, guys, for me personally, I won't be doing it.
17:31The Mixed Heroes player pick is terrible value once again.
17:33But let's go and have a look though at the Evolution and how it is picked up today.
17:39Oh, wait, hold on. The SBC for the...
17:42Oh, there it is. Yeah, this is 762 votes already.
17:48Oh, I say already, it's because I'm starting late because the Arsenal game was on.
17:56This might be the worst SBC of the year.
17:58I genuinely, genuinely agree.
18:01This is quite... Yeah, if it was open and not max 89, I'd be like, okay, that makes sense.
18:08But it's not. It is just max 89, five star, five star.
18:14And I think it is absolutely atrocious.
18:17So the five star baller, what it gives is four star weak foot, four star skill moves and trickster.
18:22And that's it. And I think it's terrible.
18:24The foot birthday striker glow up, I don't think is bad.
18:30Guys, I don't think it's bad.
18:31We've got Sade, Cesinha, Odebrecht and Lingard as like the most popular options.
18:39I like the fact... Oh, he requires some extra stuff. Not interested in that.
18:44I like the fact that it's grassroots greats, right?
18:46I do think that, for example, Cesinha with an engine at Cam is a really good option.
18:51This is good. For 30 odd K, for 35 K, this is really nice.
18:55And as a grassroots great Brazilian, it's really nice.
18:58He's got really good play styles. I think this is decent.
19:01You can even give him a Hall of Cam player and a striker if you wanted to.
19:03It's a decent card. It's nice.
19:05We've got Odebrecht there.
19:08Who's got tech rapid first touch finesse and trickster.
19:12Yeah, low composure on him, which is a bit of a shame.
19:15And then Jesse Lingard, who I also think is a good one as well.
19:17You know, pop a hawk on him or even a hunter on him.
19:21You got yourself some great, excuse me, great pace, great shooting.
19:24Very good dribbling. Five star, five star and very good play style.
19:26So there's definitely not too many players there.
19:30But what I think this might be good for and we see this guy at Mraz here, right?
19:34This might be good for if we go for max overall 64.
19:40What you're going to be able to do is get somebody like Tony Watt.
19:44What a guy.
19:47Pop him into this evolution first into, where is it?
19:52Foot birthday glove. Maybe he's too high rated actually.
19:55That takes him to an 89 with very good stats,
19:58which leaves him eligible for future Evos, right?
20:01That's what I would probably look to do with this one is go and find a bronze striker
20:05that you've always wanted to use.
20:08Maybe try and get like 62 to 63 rated.
20:14Let's change that rating. Let's pop that rating at 60.
20:19And I would take somebody that I'd be like, you know,
20:22somebody who's really tall, something like that
20:25or somebody that you just like from your past and present or whatever.
20:28Let's take, for example, this guy. And what I do like about it,
20:30again, is the fact that you get five star, five star and very good chemistry, right?
20:34So you put someone like him in here and now all of a sudden,
20:37you guys know what I'm like with the way I like stats, right?
20:4085 rating with 85 pace, 89 shooting. His dribbling is actually a bit heavy.
20:44Stamina is not the best. Passing is okay, but he's only 85 rated.
20:47So there's room for maneuver. This is probably a bad example,
20:49but that is what I would do on this one.
20:51I don't think, unless I use like Sessinia or Lingard or one of those top options,
20:57I don't think I would bother doing this on anything other than a really low rated bronze card
21:02to the point where it's very possible I might do it on the lowest rated bronze cards,
21:12either Amen or Kim Yong-Jun, both of whom I have got very good evos of already.
21:18But you could put Kim Kim Yong-Jun in there.
21:21He becomes a 72 rated with bang average stats.
21:26Maybe not. Maybe don't put it in there. I don't know, guys.
21:28It's a bit of a stink evo, isn't it? It's a bit of a stink evo.
21:32Yeah, it's a bit of a stink evo.
21:33I think Sessinia is about the only player that you can put in it.
21:37Outside of that, though, we do have the brand new objective,
21:40which I think is pretty good.
21:42It's just for playing the game, the festive fun.
21:45So an 83x5, a 75x5, an 80x3, an 83x2, an 83x3, an 82x5, and an 82x7. It's nice.
21:53What we are missing massively right now, though, guys,
21:56what we are missing massively, in my opinion, is a menu grind.
22:02It's all well and good having lots to play for in gameplay,
22:06for especially people that are grinding the game,
22:08but there's nowhere to put 83s and 84s and 82s.
22:11There's nowhere to get them either.
22:12Like, the grind right now is really unengaging.
22:16It's really unenjoyable, and I thought today would be a lot better
22:18because Friday was quite subpar. Yesterday was quite subpar.
22:22I thought today was going to be like a big hit.
22:25Let's hope that Monday is going to be better, guys,
22:26because for now, that is going to be the end of this video.
22:29As always, thank you guys very much for watching.
22:30Hopefully, you enjoyed it, and I will see you next time.
22:32I'm out. Peace.
