EA's Partial SBC Rewards Are Broken: Market Warning Ahead of Ultimate Scream

EA's new partial SBC rewards system is currently bugged and delivering the wrong packs. Submitting high-value squads can cost you tens of thousands of coins in lost value, while incoming leaks for Friday's Ultimate Scream promo are triggering a widespread market sell-off. If you are holding tradable gold cards under 50k, you should consider cashing out now to preserve coins.

Broken Partial SBC Rewards

According to TheFutAccountant, in-game rewards do not match EA's published help documentation. A test submitting a 25,000 item score—which should yield a tradable Large Gold Players Pack worth 50k-60k coins—only rewarded a standard Large Gold Pack with far worse pull rates. While throwing a single bronze card into an expiring SBC still reliably returns a Bronze Pack, you must avoid submitting valuable cards until EA fixes the reward tier tables.

Ultimate Scream Leaks and Panic Selling

The market is facing heavy disruption ahead of Friday's Ultimate Scream event. Leaks point to returning 99 full moon stat boosts and an FC Heritage Season Pass, sparking panic selling across standard golds:

• William Saliba has dipped below 50,000 coins for the first time this cycle.
• Federico Valverde slid from 280,000 down to around 270,000 coins as a market barometer.
• Anthony Gordon live card dropped from 310,000 to 288,000 coins.
• Rodri sits around 30,000 coins after being picked up at 28,000.

Market Gameplan

Do not sink coins into new live cards or promo items while panic is high. Hold your out-of-pack Icons and Heroes because their elite feel and PlayStyle+ traits allow them to rebound fastest once panic clears.

Check your club right now and liquidate low-tier tradable gold cards before Friday's promo drop.
