EA FC 26: The Cheapest 85 Rated Players In Ultimate Team

Cards rated at 85 OVR and below have often been neglected and seen as fodder cards at best in EA FC 26. Yes, they receive some attention whenever a new SBC swings by, but that’s an occasional occurrence.

However, when starting, these cards can be great to fill up spots, especially if you know which ones to get. If you’re lucky, you might even find some hidden gems that fly under the radar.

As always, there’s a wide variety of price tags when it comes to players in FUT. Spending your coins economically can boost your progress as you save money. Take, for example, Al Owairan. At just 85 OVR, his Base Heroes card costs a whopping 266k. But that won’t change his stat spread. To solve this issue, we’ll be going over the cheapest 85-rated players in FC 26 Ultimate Team.

This is a comprehensive list of the cheapest 85-rated cards on the market currently. Whether you’re looking for fodder cards to complete an SBC or building your squad on a budget and need some spots filled, 85 is a great OVR to go for.

Now, if you’re not just looking to trade them in for a better card, you might be wondering if any of these are better in terms of stats. That’s not the case objectively since all of them are 85 OVR. However, some cards may benefit you more than others due to factors like playstyles and better stat spreads.

Remember, we talked about Base Hero Al Owairan at 266K? Well, that’s not just because his card looks flashy. Base Hero cards are generally better for gameplay since they have more playstyles and better attributes. While the overall stat spread might look the same, it’s the little changes that count.

Right now, the best 85-rated cards in FUT are Base Hero Seydou Doumbia, Base Hero Al Owairan, Base Hero Yao Kouassi, and Base Hero Victor Ibarbo. All of these cards are 200K+ and require serious commitment if you’re opting for them.
