Can imagine this being the year Icons become even less desirable…

  • All icons are irrelevant while we are waiting for overpriced promo icons ;)

    I think I’m coming round to that thinking now. I always thought Icons should be the crème de la crème but they just never are, or they become redundant so quickly. Shame.

    I do think they’ve lost a lot of their mojo, following the addition of heroes. Even more so now their links are not as good.

    They needed to do campaign icons AND boost those 3 cards/get rid of base and boost the other two.

    Also, positions seem to be limited for most. Guess they will drop promo versions at different positions.

    "It’s always been somewhat of a challenge to authentically represent these historic moments with ratings that appropriately stack up against the campaign content we release in FUT. We’ve seen for some time that the deeper into the FUT cycle we go, the harder this becomes. 

    In FUT 22 we tried to bridge this gap by making changes to the way we represented ICON Moments in-game through increased OVRs and Player Attributes, but ultimately this didn’t address the root of the issue, that over the course of the year the greatest players of all time don't feel like the greatest players in FUT. As we’ve been making changes to ICONs, we’ve also seen the positive response to the way that Heroes have featured as part of campaigns. It felt like a natural evolution to introduce Campaign ICONs. 

    Through smaller, more frequent Campaign ICON releases as part of our campaigns, our hope is that ICONs will feel in-line with campaign content as we go deeper into the FUT 23 cycle, helping maintain their legendary status. "

    This is what iv been asking for, hopefully they don't stuff it up

    None of the new ones have 5* anything so I guess it will be Ginola as the only relevant attacker. Then maybe Lucio at CB cuz why not.

    Apart from that we are waiting for promo heroes and promo icons, but I guess those won't be released before February.

    Promo icons replace moments so I wouldn't expect them before the usual moments release time. So yeah February/March for the first tragic ones, relevant ones probably in May/June.

    Nice. Considering Masherano as well since we didn’t get Simeone. Looks to be dirt cheap.

    Lúcio probably, loved him at Bayern back in the day.

    A midfield of Yaya and Marchisio sounds very tempting as well, but I doubt I’ll be able to afford either any time soon..

    Edit: for some reason I thought Lúcio was like 100k lol nvm.

    Forlan for me. Would have expected him to have a 5* wf though.
