Why is FIFA 23 Out of Position Essentials Pack not worth it?

EA Sports has released the FIFA 23 Out of Position Essentials Pack to the in-game store for the ongoing promo. This is the first time a pack guarantees a card from a popular promo, which isn't the case for other options. The pack also offers a lot of other cards, but all of them come at a steep price.

Given the vital nature of FUT coins, it's essential for players to understand the pack weight and if they should be opening it at all.

Before evaluating the value of the pack, let's find out what every player can manage to find.

While the pack offers a guaranteed card from the promo, it's only on a seven-game loan. This minimal offering only adds a little to someone's team. With normal cards, it's hard to see how a FIFA 23 player can recoup their investment.

At the time of writing, both 84 and 85-rated cards are selling at a premium due to the existing SBCs, which have increased their demand. Despite the hike, 84-rated cards usually sell 3,000-3,5000 coins.

As for the 85-rated cards, the standard price is somewhere around 8,500 FUT coins. It should be remembered that the Out of Position Essentials Pack doesn't guarantee an 85-rated
