The FIFA 23 FUT Champions Upgrade Squad Building Challenges (SBCs) are now available in Ultimate Team, allowing players to exchange their red picks for a possibility of obtaining improved ones. This guide will explain how to successfully complete the FIFA 23 FUT Champs Upgrades SBCs and highlight the top players that can be acquired through them.
In FIFA 23, FUT Champions stands out as the ultimate competitive mode, where top-notch players compete against each other for lucrative rewards. Succeeding in FUT Champs not only grants access to numerous packs, but also exclusive red editions of TOTW cards.
However, like with any FIFA 23 Ultimate Team rewards, we don’t always get the players we desire. This is why EA has reintroduced the FUT Champions Upgrade SBCs, offering fans another chance to try their luck.
In this guide, you will find step-by-step instructions on completing the FIFA 23 FUT Champions Upgrades, along with a list of the top FUT Champs players available.
How to complete FIFA 23 FUT Champs Upgrade SBCs
In FIFA 23, players can choose from two distinct upgrade SBCs: the standard FUT Champions Upgrade and the enhanced FUT Champions Premium Upgrade.
The standard SBC is perfect for individuals who don’t participate in FUT Champs every weekend or consistently achieve high rankings. It requires fewer card submissions but imposes a strict rating restriction on the potential reward.
The Premium Upgrade targets FUT enthusiasts who have an abundance of red picks and desire a complete squad, ensuring a satisfactory rating in exchange.
Below are the requirements for both FIFA 23 FUT Champions Upgrades. Take a look!
