Is the 88+ Prime, Mid or WC Icon Player Pick SBC worth doing?

One of the main dilemmas regarding the Icon Player Pick SBCs is whether you will get a good icon. Although this is a player pick that you can choose from but sometimes the pack luck is too bad. If you manage to pack the Prime, Mid or WC version of Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Zidane, Cantona, Ronaldinho, Gullit, Cruyff, Daglish, etc it can be great for your FUT team. But in other cases, the value of your packed icon can also be less than the cost of the SBC.

I got 88-rated Mid Icon ST Owen, 89-rated Mid Icon CB Cannavaro and 89-rated World Cup Icon CDM Petit. My pack luck wasn’t that great as I didn’t get any of the elite Icons.

WC Icon Petit is around 330,000 FUT coins which is much greater than the other Icons in the player pick. I also needed a CDM in my team, so I choose the French CDM.

Spending over 450,000 FUT coins for this SBC and getting a player lesser than the price wasn’t worth it for me. However, there’s a high chance you’ll get someone good from this player pick SBC.

Let us know in the comments below what did you get in the 88+ Prime, Mid or WC Icon Player Pick SBC.
