The top ten players when FIFA 17 launched
The top ten players when FIFA 17 launched were as below and these are the stats if you choose not to use EA's Match Day Live updates. Our advice is very simple: purchase the available gold pack with the lowest price per rare player card. These are the only cards that can make some one rich. The other cards are almost worthless. To know which packs have the lowest price per rare card, we only need to divide the price by the number of rare cards. It is easy to do it, following the table above. However the biggest overhaul will be felt in the games set pieces, which now includes a new system for taking corners which removes the hit and hope feel of the last game.
In addition, Penalties have been overhauled, allowing you to run at the ball from different angles and adjust the speed at which you run in. All this method requires is that you open the promotional packs and sell the contents! At the absolute worst case scenario if you sell every player at 200 coins, you will receive 2280 coins, which is 480 coins profit on one pack after 5% EA selling tax. If you opened all 20 packs during the Irish themed Bronze pack offer the other day you would have pretty much guaranteed yourself a cool 9,600 coins.
Yes it will! Although slightly more tedious you will eventually see a good return on your investment. To prove this method works with regular 400 coin Bronze packs we purchased one. This is where you’re probably asking why we didn’t opt for the 750 coin Premium Bronze packs. The extra 350 coin investment isn’t worth it as you are only getting an extra 2 rare cards. With the regular Bronze pack you are getting 12 items, including players, club items and consumables, at least 10 Bronze with 1 Rare card.
But if that wasn't enough you can also move along the touchline when taking a throw in and even fake a throw to fool your opponent. However, we should pay attention to the category of the pack and if there are other cards besides players. The best packs are the ones with guaranteed rare gold players cards. Into this group, the Premium Gold Players Pack is two times more expensive than the Rare Players Pack or the Jumbo Rare Players Pack. This difference is not so high if we use FIFA Points to pay instead of coins.
It may be weird but EA Sports doesn’t use a proportional relation between coins and FIFA Points. For example: Jumbo Premium Gold pack and Silver Upgrade pack cost both 15,000 coins but the first one may be purchased with 300 FIFA Points while for the second we only need 50 FIFA Points. Players should also pay attention to this aspect. The only possible surprise is the inclusion of Manuel Neuer, a goalkeeper, in the top five. Interestingly, Lionel Messi has pipped Cristiano Ronaldo, the 2014 FIFA Ballon d'or to the coveted top spot. But maybe it isn't that surprising considering Lionel Messi is FIFA 17's cover star.
The Spanish league's two biggest clubs feature heavily with the remaining spots taken up evenly by the English, French and German leagues. You can then take your drafted team and play in a four game series to pit them against other players online. Playing FUT Draft will cost 15,000 coins, 300 FIFA Points or a Draft Token. Losing your first match will at least provide you a reward equal to the entrance fee but you'll get more rewards the better you do. EA drafted (see what we did there) Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville, familiar faces for anyone who has watched Sky Sports, to help demonstrate the new mode.
