SBC Fixing
🕑 Added 2021-09-08 11:22:38 +0000 UTCWhat is SBC Fixing?
SBC Fixing is a method to generate hype around your cards and rise the price through Futbin solutions! This concept is a bit inconsistent, but it works the best around SBC with very good packs or very popular cards.
Learning this concept and doing it takes a few weeks and some good practice, that’s why I made this Guide a 3 stars Guide. It took 3 weeks to find a semi-consistent way to pull this off for myself.
How to use Futbin
Futbin is our main working tool for this method.
It's very important to be ready at 6 pm for any SBC that drops. After that your main work starts, finding a very cheap solution with cards to fix and without making the solution too expensive.
The idea of getting your solution out as fast as possible and as cheap as possible is the whole magic of this method. As always, people just pick the top solution on Futbin and copy exactly what it says -> creates demand for the specific cards -> you see a rise.
On top of that, it's very common that Instagram Accounts share the cheapest solution for an SBC on their Account, if you are fast enough, they will copy yours! That’s very important because some of them have 100k+ followers and it drives some crazy demand for the specific selection of cards. And as it’s an Instagram post, they can’t change the solution even if it's not the cheapest anymore.
Learning how to make the cheapest solution is almost worth another guide but the base idea is to find cards with fitting requirements + low prices. I learned that finding 2x cheap strong links + 1x filler is usually cheaper than finding 3x weak links.
Another tip from my side, you can get a higher chance for your cards to be picked if you make multiple solutions at the same time with very slight differences. Just changing a single card that makes no difference and posting it again allows you to have 2 of your solutions on the list!
Doing this over and over, learning key patterns to make it fast, cheap, and improving are the key steps here. It's not an easy method to master and as said, it’s not very consistent as someone can bet your solution by 50 coins and the trick loses 90% of the power.
The profit was decent overall though. I managed to make 300k in 2 days with a budget of like 500k coins. Some cards went from 600 coins up to 8k.
Key Cards
Finding the right cards to fix is another part, you can’t fix every card sadly.
A perfect card to fix is unreplaceable in your solutions, has low supply, and is easy to search on the transfer market.
A bad card to fix is easily replaceable in your solutions, has an insane high supply, and is a name that many players have.
If your card is unreplaceable, you force people to buy that card and it drives the supply into sky-high dimensions. With very, very popular SBCs, it can even go to closer extinct prices from what I have seen.
Low supply is just another helping step for you. To move from 400 coins to 500 coins can take 10 pages of demand if the supply is high. These 10 pages can potentially get cleared but in the end, the profit is very little. If you focus on cards with low supply it will work better for the profits!
Easy name search is just a bonus but it made the last key difference from my experience. Names like James are so popular and not easy to find on the FIFA search bar. Ideally try to find names that are short and not that popular, something like Saracchi helped me a lot in Fifa 19!
Buying and Selling Players
After finding all this, make sure your solution is the cheapest! I usually started to buy the card after posting the solution, sadly never tried the limits with this method but buying and selling 90 cards was still doable. I would still recommend doing it step by step and maybe starting with 5 then 10 and so on.
Selling is also a tricky part. Ideally, your solution sits on top for a very long time and you can get the most out of it. Sometimes it happens that your card prices get updated on Futbin and you drop out of the top position again, then the whole trick doesn’t work anymore.
What I learned, I made myself realistic price targets and as soon as it hits it, I just sell them. I also just sell them one by one without listing all at once, which destroys the market as people see many of them just getting listed and wait for a good undercut.
After all this, you ideally end up with a decent profit in just about 15 minutes of work. I stopped using this method a long time ago as it's not that efficient, it is limited to a lower budget and sadly not 100% consistent.
