The Welcome to Rush mode inEA FC 25has now undergone a change in Ultimate Team, and you’re no longer restricted to using cards rated 79 or lower.

Instead, you can use your flashy walkouts, Heroes, and Icons, as you can now use cards rated up to 88. But irrespective of the overall, some cards will always be better suited to theRush mode. The items mentioned are amazing in the current in-game meta and will certainly provide you with some competitive advantages over your opponents.

Best players to use in EA FC 25 Rush mode

Now, before you check out the list, make sure to focus on the items you have. Unlike Champions orDivision Rivals,Rush isn’t a competitive mode. You’ll complete your objectives by completing matches, so don’t spend your coins on 88-rated items. But if you have a few/some of these items, make sure to use them whenever possible.

Regardless of which cards you use, always focus more on the basics. I have often encountered players who simply refuse to pass the ball and try to execute complicated skill moves. Of course, higher-rated items will allow you to bypass some of your errors, but it’s you who is playing the game at the end of the day.

I have made this list with preferences toward items that are certainly purchasable from the market. In reality, several meta items are all rated 88 and 87, but they’re extremely expensive to buy from an auction.

Additionally, always focus on theRush objectives. The objectives offer you bonus points inEA FC 25, and they’re incredibly helpful if you’re looking to complete the weekly rewards. If you can get 70,000 Rush points, you’ll end up with a free 84+ x2 Rare Gold Players Pack and a host of other minor packs. Sometimes, focusing on the Rush goals will be more beneficial than picking the most meta card possible.
