FIFA 22: Year in Review SBC returns – is it worth it?

In 22 we got a new SBC in Ultimate : The Year in Review Player Pick SBC can be completed once again. Is the challenge worth it this time? And how expensive is it? Let’s have a look.

We all love to celebrate, don’t we? This doesn’t always have to do with too much spirits, bad decisions and headaches the next morning. No, in FIFA 22 the FIFA year so far is celebrated with a new SBC… and with FUT Birthday too!

In the Year in Review Challenge you can get a Player Pick (1 out of 3). The players you can pick? Everyone who has appeared as an SBC in Ultimate Team from its release in October until Team of the Year. We’ll you if the new challenge is worth it and what grenades you can potentially draft.

Year in Review SBC Overview
So what does this mean exactly? Well, footballers from the already expired TOTY event or the popular Headliners are the last ones that can be pulled in the packs. Everything that came after that, unfortunately, will not be found in the packs. With Future Stars and FUT Birthday there would have been some strong picks. But for now, here is an overview of the SBC:

TeamsPrice RangeRewards
Year in Review Player Pick91K-94K1 aus 3 Player Pick

The price range comes from the fact that you have to give up just one team to complete the challenge. For that, you need an 85 rating and 70 team chemistry. Sounds easy, is easy, and gets even better once you see the players you can grab.

Which SBC rewards in FIFA 22 are worthwhile?
If you go through all the events and SBCs in the FUT calendar, there are some real bangers that you can get for relatively few coins. Here we have listed some of the best deals:

  • Premier POTM Cristiano Ronaldo (2.5 million coins)
  • Premier League POTM Mohamed Salah (855K Coins)
  • Flashback Karim Benzema (193K Coins)
  • LaLiga POTM Vinicius Jr. (644K Coins)
  • Showdown Niklas Süle / Gerard Piqué (159K Coins)
  • Flashback N’Golo Kanté (385K Coins)

Of course, there are other SBCs that were significantly more expensive than the Year in Review Challenge at the time of their release. These are just some of the highlights that would save you some real cash. By the way, we have already looked at the best SBCs in FIFA 22:

Is the Year in Review SBC in FIFA 22 worth it?
Of course you need a certain amount of luck, but in itself the SBC is good value. More importantly, the concept is really nice and extremely fun. It’s almost more of a gamble than the Party Bag SBC, but well, if you win, gambling is just nice.

The SBC is especially cool if you got FIFA for Christmas or if you couldn’t complete the challenges for other reasons. With Year in Review you have another (small) chance to get your fingers on some of the most popular Ultimate Team cards. We wish you good luck with the Player Picks!

(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

  1. Some SBCs consist of multiple challenges with individual bonuses and a larger overall completion bonus. Other challenges are single challenges.
  2. Some SBCs are repeatable. You have a chance to get different bonuses for each team submission, but you might also get the same bonus.
  3. SBCs are available in all FIFA 22 versions, but they can vary depending on the platform. Bonuses can also vary from platform to platform.
