The recent “Tombstone Tactics” SBC in EA FC 26 has caught quite a few players off guard. At first glance, the requirements do not seem too demanding, but once you actually start putting a squad together, you quickly realise there are plenty of small details and hidden pitfalls. If you are short on FC 26 Coins, picking up the right players on the transfer market can feel like a real struggle. But do not worry – this guide is here to walk you through how to complete it in the smartest, most cost‑effective way possible, and we will also take a close look at whether the final reward is really worth your time and resources.
Part One: The Grave Digger XI
Let’s start with the first squad challenge. Here is what you need:
1. At least one Team of the Week (TOTW) player in your squad.
2. A minimum overall squad rating of 85.
3. At least 28 total chemistry points.
Sounds straightforward, right? The catch is that whenever an SBC like this drops, the market price for cheaper TOTW cards and 85‑rated players tends to spike almost instantly. My tip is: do not rush to the market. Check your club first – dig through those untradeable cards you never use. You might be surprised to find you already have enough to save yourself a lot of coins. Those untradeable TOTW cards you picked up from objectives or season rewards are perfect for this. As for hitting the 85 rating, a common mistake is to fill the squad with only 85‑rated players. In reality, slotting in one 87‑rated player alongside a few 84‑rated ones can be much cheaper than buying eleven 85s. Get your calculator out and work out the most efficient mix.
Part Two: The Final Ritual
Once you have cleared the first hurdle, the second challenge steps things up a notch. The requirements are:
1. At least one player from La Liga.
2. At least two players rated 87 or higher.
3. A minimum overall squad rating of 86.
4. At least 30 total chemistry points.
The tricky part here is balancing an 86 squad rating and two high‑rated cards while still hitting 30 chemistry. Those two 87+ players might come from different leagues and nations, which can really mess with your chemistry. The best approach is to try to get both high‑rated cards from the same league, or at least the same nation. If that is not possible, place them in positions where chemistry impact is minimal – full‑backs or wingers, for example. Then build the rest of the squad around a single‑league core, like the Premier League or Bundesliga, to max out chemistry easily. The La Liga requirement is not too hard – a solid goalkeeper or centre‑back from the league usually does the job and tends to have a stable price.
Reward Breakdown: Is the Card Worth It?
Complete both challenges and you will earn a special “Tombstone” themed player card. This time, it is a defensive midfielder (CDM). Stat‑wise, he is excellent in defensive awareness, tackling, and strength – a real shield in the middle of the park. However, his agility and balance are on the lower side, meaning he can feel a bit clunky when turning with the ball. If your style relies on quick passing and fluid movement, he might not be the perfect fit. On the other hand, if you want a pure holding midfielder, someone to break up play relentlessly, this card is spot on. Apply the “Shadow” chemistry style to boost his pace, and he becomes a rock in front of your back line.
All in all, the “Tombstone Tactics” SBC offers decent value, especially if your club already has the right players and you do not need to spend much. The reward is not a game‑breaking superstar, but in the right tactical setup, he is a perfect piece of the puzzle. If you are in need of a defensive midfield powerhouse and do not fancy splashing out big coins to buy FUT 26 coins for a similar player on the market, this SBC is definitely worth the effort.
