Hello my friends! Welcome back to an almost holiday addition of P2P snacks. Full confession, we put the Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving (last Friday) this year, and for the first time in YEARS, I’m stoked for the holidays. Is it because I have a 2.5 year old that is fully into the magic of the season? Definitely. I’m here for it. What I’m not here for? EA’s version of Black Friday. To me, Black Friday is about deals, sales, & discounts. EA’s idea is an outrageous amount of pack offerings in the store…at full price. What? From a business standpoint, I suppose I get it, but I firmly believe EA would sell even more if they discounted FIFA points by 5-10% during Black Friday. EA, if you’re listening, feel free to reach out so we can make Black Friday more of a win-win for you and the community :) That said, the content team went nuts. I don’t think I’ve ever been so overwhelmed with the amount of content that was released in such a short amount of time. It obviously has something to do with the World Cup (SHOUTOUT TO MURICA FOR ADVANCING!), but I couldn’t keep up with it. To keep it brief, here is the content that I completed:85+ upgrade packsResult: woof.WC Hero MorientesVerdict: Worth.WC Icon SchweinsteigerVerdict: Fußballgott.WC Hero Upgrade(under 89 rated)Result: Harry Kewell - he’s good.Mixed Campaign Player PickResult: Anguissa. Pain.80+ 2 rare packsResult: Nothing of note but some decent fodderOk, with that out of the way, here’s a look at the squad:
