This is probably my final Fifa 15 post and rightly so, as
it’s been a little over a month since the release of Fifa 16 which I had
pre-ordered and am currently playing. I did feel the need to create a post
about all the players in my final Club in Fifa 15 Ultimate team as I think it
was my best Ultimate Team lineup by far in my 4 years of playing Fifa Ultimate
Team.
Fifa 15 was probably my best Ultimate Team year due to the
sheer number and quality of players that I got in packs or managed to buy. It
was also the year where I obtained by first ever Inform player In Ultimate Team
as well as my first ever Team of the season Player.
Ironically, I only managed to get my hands on Fifa 15 during
the Christmas holidays as that is when I bought my PS4 as well the Holiday
edition of Fifa 15. So not only was I about 4 months late to the party, I
hadn’t even pre-ordered it which means no weekly packs for me sadly.
I do however remember buying quite a bit of fifa points in
order to open packs on multiple occasions which might be the reason behind my
Fifa 15 Ultimate Team success.
Fifa 15 was the first year I was able to buy Iniesta for my
Ultimate Team. He is one of my favorite players to watch in real life as well
as one of my favorite players to use ingame. Iniesta is an absolute gem of a
player as his passing is top notch but even more so his dribbling is one of the
best in game which I’ve used to edge out the win on more than one occasion.
Every year I play Ultimate Team I form a Liga BBVA team and
try to emulate the club that I follow in real life, which is none other than the
infamous FC Barcelona and in Fifa 15 I had the most Barcelona players on my
Ultimate Team than any previous year.
I had almost everyone from Barcelona including first time
addition of Dani Alves to Pique who I have managed to buy every year since
Ultimate Team 2011. I was still unable to get the all sought after Messi or
Ronaldo cards which I haven’t gotten in 4 years of playing Ultimate Team,
hopefully Fifa 16 can be my lucky year.
I did however get a number of other notable players both
from FC Barcelona as well other big clubs. Some of the honorable mentions
include Neymar (Winter upgraded version), Bale, Robben, Ribery and the
Legendary Ibra card. Most of these players were first time entries to my club
in Ultimate Team ever!
Awesome attackers weren’t the only thing I was able to pack
or buy; I was able to get the coveted Serigo Ramos and Thiago Silva card,
although I never DID try them out in the same team and the Centerback Neuer. I
jest of course, but he was BEASTLY at defending, defending the ball from going
into the back of my net!
Someone once mentioned to me that there was no point in
collecting Ultimate Team players as if I just wanted to use Bale or Ronaldo I could
just use Real Madrid in Kick off mode or in regular online seasons and that
would be that. BUT to me it’s all about the joy of opening a pack and finding a
super rare card in it. It probably has something to do with my childhood
experiences of opening card packs in real life in the search of those oh so
rare holographic pokemon cards. I seem to get a similar rush from opening
virtual packs accompanied by an equally similar and all too familiar
disappointment and frustration of getting absolute garbage or god forbid a
repeat of the same shitty player for the 6th or 7th time
which, let me tell you was quite possible.
Nevertheless, my point is that Fifa 15 was my best year in
terms of the players that I had in my Ultimate Team club and I managed to do it
WITHOUT buying coins from coins sellers. While I did say I bought some packs, I
didn’t spend thousands of dollars on Fifa points or even hundreds at that.
And so I wanted to share this with you – the world before I
finally moved on for good to Fifa 16 in the hopes of getting an EVEN better
Ultimate Team club. Maybe, JUST maybe Fifa 16 is the year where I FINALLY get
the ever elusive Ronaldo or Messi, maybe even a Ronaldo or Messi inform or Team
of the Season. That alone would top my Fifa 15 club that I was so proud off,
but who am I kidding, I probably have a better chance of getting struck my
lightning INSIDE my house with the way my pack luck is :P
Fifa 15 Ultimate Team was home to a lot of ‘firsts’ for me,
first time Iniesta, first time Dani Alves, first time Neymar, first time Bale
and more importantly first inform and first Team of the Season card ever!
I am hoping that Fifa 16 can be home to a few more firsts as
well. With the addition of hero and Man of the Match Ultimate Team cards, there
are even more choices of rare cards to pack than ever before and although I
have never gotten anything other than an inform and a Team of the Season Toni
Kroos, I will continue opening packs in the hopes of getting one of these
sometime soon.
I did also start recording more of my pack openings, so when
I eventually do get my first Ronaldo or Messi, I will probably upload my pack
opening reaction for the world to see regardless of how embarrassing it turns
out to be.
Here is a video detailing ALL my GOLD players in my club.
Feel free to let me know in the comments below what players
you have packed or been able to buy for your Club in Fifa Ultimate Team.
