EA FC 25 players expose exploit that makes getting free Maicon card easier

Maicon's FC Fantasy card in EA FC 25

Fantasy FC Hero Maicon is supposed to be one of the most challenging cards to acquire in EA FC 25, but an exploit has allowed players to take a shortcut and ruin the experience for others.

If you win 30 matches in the Online Friendlies Fantasy FC League, you unlock a 92 overall Maicon, the fifth-highest-rated right back in Ultimate Team. EA rarely gives away cards like this one for free, but there is a massive catch.

12 entries were given to players on February 23, 12 more will be available on February 27, and the final 12 are coming on March 3. So, out of 36 total games, you need to win 30. This is a tall task for players.

To help make that challenge easier, players can only use a max team overall rating of 84, meaning you won’t have to worry about going against teams full of TOTY and high-rated cards.

Even with that in mind, 30 wins out of 36 chances is unattainable for some players, but that’s where the exploit comes in.

Maicon stats in EA FC 25

FC 25 player Baba revealed the steps required for an exploit in the Fantasy FC League.

  1. Create a new account
  2. Invite your friend
  3. If you lose, the one who created the new account must leave the match

A loss won’t count against the player who does not quit, meaning you can take as many tries as you want.

You still have to win matches, but this is a serious issue because players are only supposed to get 36 chances at getting Maicon. And it’s unfair to players who put in the work and are on track to earn the card legitimately.

There are currently only 12 entries available, meaning players cannot abuse the exploit to unlock the card right now.

EA still has time to address the issue, but developers haven’t responded yet. For more, check out the Fantasy FC upgrade tracker.
