After a dry spell, FC 25 has dropped some solid SBCs, including a ridiculous CDM Rujo and some insane pick cards, and you can get them for free with a bit of smart grinding. Here's how to do it without spending coins or money.

1. Start With the Daily Grinds

Rush Grind

·Play for about 45 minutes to 1 hour daily.

·You can open 10-11 packs during this time.

·This is essential if you're starting from scratch, as it gives you tons of players to build your SBCs.

Shape Shifters Daily Play

·Do this daily for consistent rewards.

·By day 3, you'll get an 84+ rated card; by the end of the event, an 86+ rated card.

·This helps fill out your club with valuable cards for SBCs.

Squad Battles

·If you prefer a more relaxed, offline mode, grind squad battles for rewards.

·This accumulates cards without having to rely on online play.

2. The Basic SBC Card Grind Flow

Step 1: Daily Silver and Bronze SBCs

·Complete Super Daily Silver SBCs (7 silvers required).

·Complete Daily Silver SBCs (total of 13 silvers used).

·Complete Daily Bronze SBCs (about 20 bronzes).

·This builds a solid base and frees up your bronze and silver cards for other SBCs.

Step 2: Daily FC 25 Coins Upgrades

·Use bronzes and silvers you've earned to complete Daily Gold upgrade SBCs.

·These upgrade your lower-tier players and free up resources for bigger SBCs.

·Stop doing these once you run out of bronze.

Step 3: Shape Shifters Grind SBC

·Use all silver cards from your club here - it's the only place you need silvers.

·These will give you higher-rated players to help complete bigger SBCs later.

3. Using Your Packs and Players Efficiently

Grind Packs and Crafting Upgrades

·You get grind packs from completing SBCs; open them and use the players for further SBCs.

·The Crafting Upgrade SPC needs 9 players from these packs, typically rating around 77+.

·This SPC can reward you with some solid 82-84+ cards and walkouts.

Keep Recycling

·Use the players from grind packs for crafting upgrades, which then help you complete higher-tier SBCs.

·Repeat this process to keep upgrading your player pool without spending coins.

4. Moving to Mid & High-Tier SBCs

83+ Picks and Squad Shifters

·As your club grows, start doing 83+ pick SBCs and Squad Shifters exchanges.

·These SBCs need 84+ rated players, which you can gather through your earlier grind.

84+10 and 87+03 SBCs

·These give you a high chance of walkouts (rare players) and great rewards.

·Opening these packs usually gives multiple exchange players, fueling your grind.

·The 87+03 is generally disliked for rewards, so focus more on the 84+10 SBCs.

5. Building the Final SBC Squad form Top Cards

·The main SBCs for icons or special picks often require a 90-rated squad.

·Use the team of the season, a team of the week, or inform cards to boost your squad rating.

·If you don't have these cards, use the high-rated Shape Shifters you've earned.

·Try mixing in 84-87-rated players from your crafting and grind packs to fill gaps.

Bonus Tips:

·Clear out your storage regularly to keep your club manageable.

·Use Eld.gg if you want to sell or buy EAFC 25 Coins/players safely and cheaply (optional).

·Stick to grinding these SBCs methodically - it might take some time, but it is 100% free and efficient.

·Engage with the community or comment for help if stuck on specific SBC requirements.

1. Do the daily bronze, silver, and gold SBCs to build your player base.
