FIFA 23 Ultimate Team 85+ Double Upgrade SBC (December 25): How to complete, expected cost, and more

sportskeeda.com:

The 85+ Double Upgrade SBC is live on FIFA 23 Ultimate Team, and players can complete the Squad Building Challenge to add high-value upgrades to their FUT squads over the next four days. The relatively expensive challenge is repeatable, allowing players to add a few highly-rated players, provided they complete the challenge on a daily basis.

With the Winter Wildcards promo active, the rewards may include some of the boosted new rare cards. Thus, players are advised to complete the challenge multiple times.

Single-task SBCs such as the 85+ Double Upgrade challenge, which provides solid rewards, are generally well-received by players.

Here's a guide to completing the challenge optimally:

Repeatable challenges are a steady stream of cards for the FUT squad and are generally cheap. While the 85+ Double Upgrade Squad Building Challenge can be completed once in each of the next four days, it is not as cheap as the previous iterations of the challenge.

Here are all the requirements to complete the challenge:

Rewards: 1x 85+ Two Players Pack (Untradeable) (Repeatable)

Estimated Cost: 28,000 - 30,000 FUT Coins across all platforms

The challenge can be slightly expensive for players who do not have a lot of fodder to offset the cost. Building a squad that meets all the requirements to complete the challenge costs around 29K coins as per the current market rates. Alternatively, FIFA 23 players can wait to see if the price of the cards goes down over the course of the day to mitigate losses.

The high price of SBCs is mostly due to the fact that they require a decently-rated squad with one card that should be rated above 85 overall. At the time of writing, Brozovic from Inter Milan is the cheapest 86-rated player and costs around 11.3 coins
