FC 27 SQUAD BATTLES
Squad Battles in Football Club 27 is a single-player mode where you face off against squads created by the Ultimate Team community.
Squad Battles Explained
Squad Battles is a single player or Co-Op mode in FC 27 Ultimate Team where you face AI controlled versions of squads created by other players.
Each week features a new competition in which up to 18 matches can count towards your Rank. This total consists of sixteen matches against squads from the Ultimate Team community, plus one match against a Featured Squad and one against the current Team of the Week, when both are available.
After completing the matches that count towards your weekly score, you can continue playing Squad Battles to earn Coins and progress towards Objectives. However, these additional matches will not add Battle Points to your weekly total.
Four community opponents are available at a time. You can refresh the list whenever you choose, but any unplayed matches from the current group will count as used and award no Battle Points. Once skipped, these matches cannot be recovered.
Your Rank is determined by the Battle Points earned during the weekly competition. Most Ranks are percentage based, meaning that their point thresholds can change as other players continue competing. Reaching the highest positions requires earning more Battle Points than other players on the leaderboard.
The number of Battle Points earned depends on the match result, the selected difficulty and your performance. Higher difficulty levels offer greater potential scores, but also make the AI controlled opponents more challenging.
Rewards are granted shortly after the weekly competition ends and are based on your final Rank. They may include Coins, Packs and other Ultimate Team rewards, with the available rewards subject to change throughout the FC 27 season.
