EA FC 24 Hristo Stoichkov Icon SBC: How to complete, expected costs, and more

EA Sports has released the latest Icon Player SBC of EA FC 24 Ultimate Team, with Bulgarian legend Hristo Stoichkov now being available for gamers to unlock.

The legendary forward is one of the most underrated Icons in the game, with his left foot being absolutely lethal in front of the goal. This is also the most expensive Icon SBC to be released so far this year.

EA FC 24 features a brand-new Icon roster system. These legendary players now have just a single version in Ultimate Team instead of the previous three, making their current cards even more rare and desirable.

With how beneficial they are for team chemistry when building squads, players like Hristo Stoichkov are more overpowered than ever before.

This is the third Icon SBC to be released so far in the EA FC 24 Ultimate Team game cycle, following in the footsteps of David Beckham and Laurent Blanc.

That said, compared to these two, Hristo Stoichkov is much more expensive and effective in the current meta of the game. This makes the latest SBC especially enticing for gamers who have the funds required to unlock this item.

How to unlock Hristo Stoichkov in EA FC 24 Ultimate Team?

The SBC consists of ten segments, making it the most extensive and demanding challenge to be released so far in the game cycle. In terms of overall costs, it rivals the likes of POTM Heung Min Son and is one of the costliest SBCs in the game.

These are the specific stipulations of each individual segment:

Born Legend

• Rare players: Minimum 11 in your starting eleven
• Player Quality: Exactly Bronze

Rising Star

• Rare players: Minimum 11 in your starting eleven
• Player Quality: Exactly Silver

On a Loan

• Player quality: Exactly Gold

El Pistolero

• FC Barcelona players: Minimum one in your starting eleven
• Team of the Week players: Minimum one in your starting eleven
• Team overall rating: Minimum 83

League Finesse

• Serie A TIM players: Minimum one in your starting eleven
• Team overall rating: Minimum 85

League Legend

• La Liga EA Sports players: Minimum one in your starting eleven
• Team overall rating: Minimum 86

86-rated squad

• Team overall rating: Minimum 86

Top-Notch

• Team of the Week players: Minimum one in your starting eleven
• Team overall rating: Minimum 86

87-rated squad

• Team overall rating: Minimum 87

88-rated squad

• Team overall rating: Minimum 88

The overall expected cost of the SBC is around 850,000 coins, which is to be expected considering the relatively inflated price of high-rated fodder players in the current economy of EA FC 24 Ultimate Team.

Notably, this is still lower than the value of the tradeable version of Hristo Stoichkov, making the SBC a worthwhile proposition.
