The Icon Swaps program has returned to Ultimate Team after several years of absence, and FC 26 players can obtain some amazing rewards for free of cost.
EA Sports will be releasing 20 tokens in total for you to obtain and exchange them for rewards. The rewards include special Icon cards, repeatable packs, and evolutions. Let’s look at the best reward combinations you can pick from.
Best Icon Swaps rewards to pick in FC 26
As of writing, 10 of the 20 Icon Swaps tokens are available. Grinding them separately will take a lot of time. However, we have a shortcut for you to reduce the grind as much as possible. That said, obtaining all the tokens won’t be easy. We also don’t know what the conditions for the remaining 10 tokens will be in the future.
There could be secret tokens in the future as well, but not everyone will manage to get every token. The table below has the best rewards combination you can opt for. The choices are based on my judgments, and I have heavily gone with the current in-game meta.
| No. of Tokens | Rewards | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 4 | 20 84+ Rare Gold Players Pack (Two Times)/Xabi Alonso Icon and 25x 82+ Rare Gold Players Pack | Great fodder packs |
| 5 | Tiki Taka+/Xabi Alonso Icon and 20 84+ Rare Gold Players Pack/15 85+ Rare Gold Players Pack and 20 84+ Rare Gold Players Pack | Tiki Taka+ should be taken if you have a meta Icon. Otherwise, you can go for Xabi Alonso and a fodder pack, or just opt for pure fodder. |
| 6 | 25 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack | 25 guaranteed walkouts are amazing. |
| 7 | 25 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack and 25 82+ Rare Gold Players Pack | I don’t like Zambrotta’s icon card. Going for the guaranteed walkout pack is better. |
| 8 | 25 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack and 20 84+ Rare Gold Players Pack | Gambling on a campaign pick isn’t my cup of tea. |
| 9 | Stoichkov/25 86+ Rare Gold Players Pack and 15 85+ Rare Gold Players Pack | Only pick Stoichkov if you don’t have a meta attacker on the left wing. |
| 10 | Iconic Attacker Glow Up | Absolutely fantastic evolution that will improve the attacking lineup of most players in the game. |
| 11-13 | Iconic Attacker Glow Up and Fodder Packs | Pick the evolution and whatever fodder packs you can with the balance. |
| 14-18 | Rio Ferdinand and fodder packs/Iconic Attacker Glow Up and Fodder packs | Choose the option that suits your team more. I will be personally going with the evolution and fodder packs. |
| 19-20 | Ronaldo | This card is a must-have for any player at any given skill level. |
