A team in FIFA Ultimate Team costs 916 days of play or 92 euros

To have a team full of stars in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team, you would have to dedicate several years. Or spend tens of thousands of euros.

FIFA 21 is once again generating buzz thanks to its Ultimate Team mode. It has been under scrutiny by authorities for some time to determine if it qualifies as a gambling game like a casino . Now, a Twitch streamer has calculated whether it's possible to build a team with top players without spending any money.

A great team in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team is two and a half years of uninterrupted play

ScudzTV took EA Sports' claim that you can get your dream team simply by playing FIFA 21's Ultimate Team mode seriously. They did the math to create a dream team consisting of Ronaldo, Pelé, Ronaldinho, Gullit, Cruyff, Vieira, Roberto Carlos, Maldini, Ferdinand, Zambrotta, and Van der Sar. This Ultimate Team in FIFA 21 costs around 100 million coins.

Assuming that the game gives 1 coins per game on average with weekly prizes, 500 games would need to be played, and 66 minutes each is 666 hours of play. Uninterrupted, it would be 20 full days of play, after which FIFA 22 would have already been released on the market. If it is through exchanges at an average of 000 coins per exchange every 916 minutes, it is 23 hours exchanging players. That's 10 uninterrupted days trading players.

If you wanted to choose to get that team of players in FIFA 21 Ultimate team for real money, you would have to buy about 1 000 FIFA points cards at £ 12 to get all the FIFA Coins you need. That's 000 pounds, or about 79,99 euros. ScudzTV makes it clear that it is not impossible to have a team of great players in FIFA 79 Ultimate Team. But that is at the cost of playing non-stop for years or spending a huge amount of money. And since Ultimate Team mode is what makes many players profit from the game because of the constant changes it offers, it is either being conditioned to play a lot and spend money, or to ignore an important part of the game.
