Highlights from Ultimate Birthday Team 2
Highest Rating: Mohamed Salah (94)
This year, Salah has already collected a total of 7 special cards! However, both of his new Ultimate Birthday cards are significantly better than all his other versions, which actually had just slight differences. Therefore, Salah's new cards should cost significantly more than his Winter Wildcard, which is still priced at 1.3 million coins upon the release of Team 2!
Highest Upgrade: Tajon Buchanan & Ainsley Maitland-Niles (88)
Even though both players are already known to the community, they had a basic rating of just 72 in EA FC 24. Thanks to the upgrade of a whole 16 points, both now have an overall rating of 88! Unfortunately, they still don't make a really good duo on the right side since they don't match up in terms of chemistry. However, both should still be fun to play with their upgrades.
Highest Pace: Mykhaylo Mudryk (91)
So far in EA FC 24, Mudryk has received only one other special card from a Showdown SBC. That's why EA is now giving him two cards, each with 5-star skills or weak foot. His pace of 97 and the Rapid Playstyle Plus are incredibly suited for sprints down the left wing. With the Trivela Playstyle Plus, you can actually shoot from both sides.
And that's all for Ultimate Birthday Team 2. We're looking forward to the next event and hope that a few more new faces will receive a card. Until then, we wish you plenty of pack luck!
EA FC 24 Ultimate Birthday Mini-Release 2: All New Players & Ratings
Just a few days after the release of Team 2, EA will follow up with a Mini-Release. We will update you with the complete overview as soon as the Mini-Release goes live.
Until then, we wish you a lot of fun with all the new cards from Team 2 and good luck in you Weekend League!
