EA Sports recently released the EA FC 25 86+ Hero Mix player pick SBC in Ultimate Team, containing several base Hero items as well as boosted versions from several exciting promos. The pick offers a choice between three players and is cheap to unlock. That said, fans may wonder about the best available players they can obtain from this selection.

This is the first instance of Prime Heroes and Track Star Heroes being available via a Hero player pick. Both these promo rosters have some very overpowered inclusions, with the top picks being worth millions of coins in the Ultimate Team transfer market.
