What to Expect from EA FC 24's Winter Wildcards Event

In a recent update on June 6, players can enjoy special Team of The Season Cards in EA FC 24, creating their own sought-after cards with improved attributes. Whether it’s a cost-effective star like Debinha or a legendary star like Caroline Graham Hansen, you can find the best player on TOTS list. With the end of a season in the football calendar, now is a good time to choose your best players. This Ultimate Team mode is the first time that women have been fully included, so each top Female League will be evaluated based on the best performances of the players. Once the evaluation is complete, the top performing players will receive special Team of The Season Cards with attribute boosts, creating some of the most sought-after cards for players in the game. This guide will take a look at some of Female Team of the Season Cards in unique positions and requiring different FC 24 Coins. Finally, it should be noted that Squad Building Challenges are limited-time, so they are not included in this guide. Debinha Pace: 91 Shooting: 88 Passing: 94 Dribbling: 99 A current member of Kansas City, Debinha has had a strong NWSL Season, kicking 9 goals in 18 games and excelling in the midfield position. On the field, her 88 shooting rating shows. But her true talent lies elsewhere. With 99 dribbling, her play style, and dribbling-focused, she is one of the best dribblers in the game. With this card available for just 300k FC 24 Coins, you’ll get a lot for your money. Although this update mainly introduces European players, it may be a bit far-fetched to associate her with European players, but she comes from Brazil, a football powerhouse, and will help you a lot in the team. Alexandra Popp Pace: 92 Shooting: 97 Dribbling: 92 This German veteran has scored 67 goals for German national team and 87 goals for Wolfsburg in her 15-year career. Although her speed score is slightly lower than similar TOTS cards, she will make up for it in other aspects. The German striker has the best shooting data in the league at present, with a shot power of 99 and a success rate of 96, making her a very good shooter. Her positioning and header accuracy are both 99, making her a leader in header scoring. And her 5-star weak foot combined with Finesse Shot Plus makes her very good in any situation. Salma Paralluelo Pace: 99 Shooting: 94 Dribbling: 95 Salma Paralluelo is probably one of the best young players in the world, and she became the star of the 2023 Spanish Team of the Year when she scored in World Cup semi-final against Switzerland. She then made a name for herself by scoring 18 goals in 18 league games for Barcelona. She is just one point away from a perfect score for pace, and her Rapid and Quick Step play styles make her unmatched on the field. Once she is in front of the goal, it is a goal-scoring ending. Sophia Smith Pace: 99 Shooting: 94 Dribbling: 97 You can put this card anywhere on the field, whether it is ST, CF or RW. Because of her pace, this is an upgrade from her already excellent Team of the Year card. Aside from the always useful Finesse Shot +, Smith’s speed is only slightly better than her accuracy when facing a shooting opportunity. Aitana Bonmati Shooting: 94 Passing: 94 Dribbling: 99 Defending: 88 From the data listed, she has one more defending data than other players, which also means that she is an all-round player. As a key factor in the enormous success of Barcelona team in recent years, Bonmati is one of the best female players in the entire league. Although she is all-round, she is more suitable for the 8th or 10th position, and can play the best role in the midfield. In terms of court skills, she is more suitable for running towards attackers and passing the key balls behind the opposing defenders. Karchaoui Pace: 99 Defending: 92 Dribbling: 97 Although Karchaoui is essentially a left-back who focuses on defense, she can also attack the opponent’s full-back as a left midfielder. On the left half of the court, she is better at creating opportunities and scoring goals. If you want her to focus on defense, you can put her in Sentinel style and improve her defense and physicality to 97 and 89 points. If you want to prioritize offense, you can choose Finisher style to improve dribbling and shooting. Caroline Graham Hansen Pace: 97 Shooting: 95 Dribbling: 98 Passing: 96 Hansen is the most expensive female TOTS card on the market for EA FC 24, but it is definitely worth the money. Her stats are also very nice, and there are other attributes that make her a suitable candidate for legendary status. Besides her shooting stats, she also has 5-star skills and weak foot. Hawk style is the best way to further improve this special card, which can increase speed to 99 points, shooting to 98 points, and physical fitness to 92 points. After reading this guide, do you want to get all 7 cards? I hope players have fun at the new Football Festival event!

In the dynamic world of EA Sports FC 24, finding the right tactics can elevate your game to new heights. This guide explores the best meta tactics and instructions for the 3-5-2 formation, providing a comprehensive strategy to dominate in the FUT mode. As you delve into the world of strategic gameplay, remember that customization is key, and we're here to guide you through it all. Is the 3-5-2 Formation Meta? As of the latest guide publication, the 3-5-2 formation stands out as a compelling choice in EA Sports FC 24. Suited for Rivals or FUT Champions, this formation offers an effective and versatile gameplay style, making it ideal for those who prefer a balanced approach with strategic passing and well-timed calls. For a more classic setup, formations like 4-2-3-1 or 4-2-2-2 might be considered for their versatility. When to Use the 3-5-2 Formation: The 3-5-2 is an aggressive and multifaceted formation that creates numerous attacking opportunities through player runs and calls. It's particularly effective in causing defensive stretches, providing ample scoring chances. However, optimal training is crucial, and certain player cards might shine more in specific situations, a point we'll explore further in this guide. The Best Tactics for 3-5-2 on EA Sports FC 24: To maximize the potential of the 3-5-2 formation, adopting specific tactics is key. Here's a breakdown of the recommended settings: Defense: - Defensive Style: Balance - Width: 35 - Depth: 55 Attack: - Construction: Slow Build - Occasion: Ball Calls - Width: 45 - In the Surface: 4/10 - Corners: 2/5 - Free Kicks: 1/5 Possible Modifications: While the tactics are optimized for meta play, slight adjustments can be made based on personal preferences. For instance, you might consider tweaking the Corners and In the Area values, with caution about the associated risks. A higher Depth can be experimented with for increased pressing, although its effectiveness might vary. Instructions for 3-5-2 Training: For effective execution of the 3-5-2 formation, precise player instructions are paramount. Each player's role is defined by position: BU 1 (Behind the Defense): Stay in Front BU 2 (Overrun): False 9 – Return to Defense MOC (Middle Offensive Center): Stay Ahead MG (Left Midfielder): Move Freely – Behind the Defense – In the Box MD (Right Midfielder): Return to Defense – Stay Wide – Short Calls – Stay on the Edge of the Box MCD (Central Defensive Midfield): Stay Behind in Attack – Cover Center MCG (Central Offensive Midfield): Stay Behind in Attack (Balanced possible here) – Cover Center Possible Modifications: Minor adjustments are possible based on player profiles. Consider using a Box-to-Box for MCG if more offensive presence is desired. BU 2 can be set to Balance instead of Return to Defense for players with high defensive capabilities. Meta Players for 3-5-2 Formation: The effectiveness of the tactics is further enhanced by using meta players that complement the formation's dynamics. Here are examples of players categorized by their positions: On Attack: - For BU: Eusebio, Mbappé Trailblazers, Henry, Haaland RTTK, Kane Trailblazers, Osimhen RTTK. - Support BU Players: Tevez UCL, Diani Thunderstruck, Griezmann TOTGS, Drogba WW, Kerr Radioactive, Kane TOTGS. - For MOC: Neymar Jr Versus, Ribery, Vinicius Jr Thunderstruck, Griezmann TOTGS, Son POTM, Salah TOTW, Dembélé RTTK, Messi.
