To complete the 88+ Prime, Mid or WC Icon Upgrade SBC, you will require about 220,000 FUT coins. The FIFA 23 Squad Building Challenge can be completed up to three times, meaning you can attempt it multiple times if you want to.
Moreover, you can also reduce the aforementioned completion cost. This can be done using fodder from your collection. Even doing so partially will bring down the final cost, making the challenge much more affordable. Moreover, the saved coins can be utilized elsewhere where the fodder can't be used.
You can take a patient to the new SBC since it expires on February 4, 2023. This means that you'll get to use weekly rewards from different events in the Squad Building Challenge. It's advisable to utilize as much fodder from your own collection as possible. The big reason for this is the nature of the rewards of this 88+ Prime, Mid or WC Icon Upgrade SBC.
After completing the FIFA 23 challenge, you will get a guaranteed Icon card. All eligible rewards have an overall of 88 or higher and will be either Mid or Prime versions.
Moreover, you can also find World Cup Icon variants of items that were introduced in November 2022. These special Icon cards were released to celebrate the FIFA World Cup in Qatar. You can't find these exclusive versions in packs; the only alternative is to get them from the market, which can be costly.
