The Icon Upgrade SBC is new in the game and brings you one of the legendary cards for your Ultimate Team. Is the first Icon Challenge in FIFA 22 worth it? And what is the cheapest solution? Let’s take a look.
The first Icon SBC is in the game! Until 14.11.2021 you have the chance to draw a random legend with the Icon Pack. However, you’ll have to put some serious coin on the table for it. So is the SBC worth it? And what is the cheapest solution? We’ll tell you!
Is the basic icon upgrade SBC worth it?
Tendentially no. You need to have a whole 400-450k in your account to get a baby icon. I repeat: basic/baby icon! That’s the lowest version of the legends. Of course there are absolute OP cards like Ferdinand, Pelé or Eusebio – but van Nistelrooy, Klose or Keane are only a few of numerous unplayable legends. So if you are more in the starter team stage, keep your distance from the Challenge!
But if you’ve got your OP Weekend League team up and running and the coins are just flowing, go for it! The thrill and hope of becoming a kickass legend bucks extremely. That’s why it’s important for us to say: This SBC has its appeal and the Icon Pack is really cool in itself. So poker is on the cards…
The cheapest solution of the Icon SBC
When you’re barely getting to 450k, it’s even more important to know the cheapest solution to the SBC. With these four teams we’ll show you, you can really save money! So let’s take a look at how you can (hopefully) get Eusebio.

FIFA Squad Building Challenges (short SBC)
The FIFA Squad Building Challenges (SBC for short) are about putting together a team according to certain specifications. They are an important part of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT) and bring coins, valuable packs or special cards when fulfilled.
For the most part, you’ll have to line up eleven players that you have in your club and then send this squad off. These players will then disappear from your club. In return, you’ll receive a reward, such as a pack or a special card. As with FIFA 19, FIFA 20 and FIFA 21 we will report about the latest SBCs for FIFA 22 here and help you to judge if it is worth to complete a challenge.
START WITH THE SQUAD BUILDING CHALLENGES
In Squad Building Challenges (SBCs), you can use your player items to build unique teams based on various challenge conditions. You can then submit these to receive bonuses.
Here’s how:
- From the FIFA 22 main menu, select the FIFA Ultimate Team section.
- In the home page section, select Squad Building Challenges and call them up.
- Select the challenge you want to complete. They are grouped by category.
Create a team.
- Using items from your club or from the transfer market, build a team that meets the challenge conditions. Usually this is a mix of player quality, team chemistry, team value, nationalities, leagues and clubs.
Master the Challenge to submit your team and receive bonuses.
- All SBC submissions cannot be undone. Once you complete an SBC, the submitted items will be permanently removed from your club in exchange for bonuses. Our consultants cannot restore submitted items.
- For some SBCs, you will only have a limited amount of time to complete them. Once a challenge has expired, you will no longer be able to submit a team.
More details about SBCs
- Some SBCs consist of multiple challenges with individual bonuses and a larger overall completion bonus. Other challenges are single challenges.
- Some SBCs are repeatable. You have a chance to get different bonuses for each team submission, but you might also get the same bonus.
- SBCs are available in all FIFA 22 versions, but they can vary depending on the platform. Bonuses can also vary from platform to platform.
