8 Mar
Summary
- EA FC 26 released Showdown SBCs for Elanga and Araujo.
- SBCs require four squads, including TOTW and specific league players.
- Both players cost approximately 92,000 coins, with Araujo favored.
EA Sports has introduced new Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) in EA FC 26 Ultimate Team featuring Anthony Elanga and Ronald Araujo, anticipating a UEFA Champions League fixture between Newcastle United and FC Barcelona. The virtual player items in these SBCs offer exceptional stats and PlayStyles. The decision to release these challenges ahead of a real-world match means the winner's virtual item will receive a performance boost.
Completing either the Elanga or Araujo SBC involves submitting four distinct squads. These squad requirements often include a minimum number of Team of the Week players, players from specific leagues like LaLiga or the Premier League, and a minimum overall team rating. For instance, the Ronald Araujo SBC tasks require a minimum 85-rated squad for 'FC Barcelona' and an 86-rated squad for 'LaLiga', alongside two 87-rated squads.
The Anthony Elanga SBC shares similar squad submission criteria, demanding a minimum 85-rated squad for 'Premier League' and an 86-rated squad, followed by two 87-rated squads. Both challenges necessitate the inclusion of at least one Team of the Week player. The approximate cost for each of these SBCs is around 92,000 coins, with Ronald Araujo being the more sought-after option due to his defensive capabilities and Barcelona's strong performance.
The choice between these two SBCs leans towards Ronald Araujo. His collection of defensive PlayStyles makes him a top-tier centre-back in the game. Furthermore, FC Barcelona's current impressive form increases the likelihood of him receiving the anticipated in-game upgrade, making him the more strategically advantageous acquisition for players.
