If you intend to dominate FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT for short) in EA Sports’ FIFA 16, understanding the concept of team chemistry is ideal. Odds of making passes and cashing in scoring opportunities will increase if you put proper chemistry in place. In fact, you should pass over superstar talent on occasion if it means perfecting chemistry. This may sound bizarre initially, but randomly building a team with world class talent goes right out the window the moment you turn the ball over or even worse, blow entire FUT seasons and tournaments.
For less/moderately experienced FIFA players we strongly recommend committing to a particular league early on and try getting 100 chemistry this way. This may mean that you will have to forgo selecting certain top players at times and pick those lower-rated non-rares instead, but in the long run this will be worth it. More experienced FIFA players can attempt to build full chemistry hybrid squads, but it has to be noted that this is difficult with the limited selections you are given. Linking a team by nationality is similar in the fact that it’s more unlikely to consistently offer players from a particular nation in each required position.
We’ve mentioned this before in our FUT Tips, chemistry styles do make a difference! A hunter on a defender or a shadow on an attacking player isn’t going to do you any favors, so focus more on chemistry styles when faced with tough selections. Choose styles more beneficial to a specific position as well as the style of the player you are selecting and you’ll feel the difference in their performance. Offline seasons are the best way of going about it early doors, as the AI is pretty forgiving and so you can earn a raft of rewards for winning matches and producing good performances. Play more football, earn more coins, buy more players, win more football. If only everything else in life was so simple. Earn enough in-game coins and there will never be a need to even contemplate unloading the credit card for some FIFA points.
There are many cool new features in FIFA Ultimate team 16. One of the main ones is FUT draft where you can use players drawn randomly build a team and play against other drafts in a tournament of 4 games. Entering a draft costs 15000 coins or you can use FIFA points. Out of 5 players drawn randomly you pick 1 player for each position, then same for subs. Trying to build the best team with best chemistry you can. As you try to win rounds in the tournaments offline and online you earn coins, packs and rewards which you can use in your actual Ultimate team. Even if you lose in 1st or 2nd round you will still get coins and packs. The best thing about this is that the best players can be in the random 5 for each position so you will have the chance to play with Ronaldo Messi and legends if on xbox.

Listing items for the correct price is absolutely crucial if they are to sell, but you can also increase the likelihood of selling an item by repeating short listing cycles. Many FUT users list items for 3 hours - 3 days, but this can actually be detrimental if you’re looking for a quick sale. It is generally best to list items for 1 hour at a time, as lowest BIN (buy it now) prices continually fluctuate. This will allow you to adjust the price of these items accordingly, without having locked listings. Longer listing cycles are recommended for scarcer items of a higher value.
If you want to search for a specific Player to fill out your Squad, use the first option in Player Search to type in his first or last name. This lets you easily select the Player you want based on the search results that appear. Concept Squads is a powerful new Squad Planning tool that lets you put together Squads using every Player available in FUT.
