FIFA 22: New Showdown SBC with Paulista & Canales – Cheapest solution

In 22 we got a new SBC in Ultimate Team: The Showdown Challenge between Gabriel Paulista and Sergio Canales can be completed. Is the SBC worth it? And how expensive is it? Let’s have a look…

Although the FUT Showdown event in FIFA 22 is already over for a long time, we got once again a new SBC. This time Gabriel Paulista (Valencia CF) and Sergio Canales (Real Betis) are facing each other in the Challenge.

In this article we’ll show you which of the two players is worth playing or if you should rather go for special cards from other FUT events. Furthermore we will explain you how you can buy both SBCs very cheap…

FIFA 22 Showdown SBC Overview

You can get both players until April 23, 2022 by completing the SBC for your team. Both challenges have about the same requirements and therefore cost similar. Nevertheless one of the two players is much more interesting, which should be illustrated by the following table.

We’re talking about Sergio Canales, of course. For a central midfielder, he has above-average speed (90 pace) and can set up his teammates with dangerous passes (91) time and again. The upgrade of Gabriel Paulista is not bad by any means, but more than half a year after FIFA release it is clearly too weak to belong to the meta cards. If you have coins for only one of either player, you should rather go for Canales…. even without victory upgrade he is the better choice.

Is the FUT Showdown SBC in FIFA 22 worth it?

Yes and no. In the best case, Canales’ already more than solid card gets a +2 upgrade and looks really tasty. Then the challenge is definitely worth it. But we wouldn’t go for Gabriel Paulista, you’ll find dozens of stronger alternatives on the transfer market…

RELEASE – WHAT IS KNOWN SO FAR

FIFA 22 is still in full operation, but in the background the game makers of EA Sports are already working on the next part – FIFA 23 will be released in autumn 2022.
But under which name will the classic game be continued in autumn 2022? As things stand, it is not at all certain that the game will continue to bear the name of the world association FIFA. We have the most important information about FIFA 23 for you, why the game series will get a new name and on which consoles the next part of the soccer simulation will be available.

WHEN WILL FIFA 23 BE RELEASED?

We can’t give you an official launch date for the next part of the FIFA game series yet. EA hasn’t communicated much in this regard yet, so so far we can only assume that FIFA 23 will be released in the period between mid-September and early October 2022, just like its predecessors. In the past years, the latest launch date of a FIFA game was October 06.
