The Cost

The Prime Hero Stam SBC comes with a hefty price tag of 891,000 coins and demands completion of 11 squads. While the cost and time requirements are steep, there are efficient ways to tackle it. Here’s the breakdown for the most cost effective method to complete this SBC.

Here’s the breakdown on the cards you’ll need to complete the various squads for this SBC:

• 6x TOTW cards (87-rated)
• 15x 89-rated cards
• 22x 88-rated cards
• 7x 87-rated cards
• A mix of 83-rated to 85-rated cards.

The 88 and 89-rated cards are the most expensive part of this SBC. It’s likely that you’ll need to buy these, as most players won’t have this substantial amount of untradeables, meaning there will be a significant coin commitment to complete it

Breaking Down the Squads

You will need to complete eleven squads, here’s a quick look at what each individual squad requires:

Premier League: You’ll need an 85 rated squad, with a TOTW and player from the Premier League.

Top Form: You’ll need an 85 rated squad, with a TOTW.

85-Rated Squad: You’ll need an 85 rated squad, with a TOTW.

86-Rated Squad: You’ll need two 86 rated squads, with a TOTW.

87-Rated Squad: You’ll need two 87 rated squads.

87-Rated Squad (TOTW): You’ll need an 87 rated squads, with a TOTW.

88-Rated Squad: To finish, you’ll need three 88-rated squads.

You’ve got approximately 9 weeks to complete this SBC, which is plenty of time, however with the expensive squad requirements you will definitely need it.

Is it worth it?

Now, let’s talk about value. The 89-rated Prime Hero Stam SBC is priced at around 890k coins, which is roughly the same as his tradeable version at release.

There are plenty of pros for this card, starting with his elite 91 Defending and 90 Physical stats, which make him a standout CB. Additionally, he boasts the highly sought-after Defender++ Role, further cementing his position as one of the best in the game.

There aren’t any real cons to the card, he’s undoubtedly one of the best CBs in the game. However, the main issue is the high price, especially with TOTY just around the corner, where similarly strong options are likely to be available for much less.

This SBC ultimately comes down to personal preference and what your team needs. If you’re opening a lot of packs during TOTY, Stam is an excellent place to sink your fodder. That said, I’d recommend holding off for now to see what other SBCs drop during TOTY, as you’ll have plenty of time to decide whether to commit to this one
