“Must Have” cards for just starting the game

TL;DR best pickups to improve my lineup (1.5m budget)

What up boys, this is my current lineup that I built yesterday and I have about 1.5m to spend to upgrade it.

 Ive played MUT since M20 but I didn’t start this year‘s until yesterday because the game didnt seem that fun to me but regardless I hopped on, built a team with that $20 platinum bundle, and also managed to pull the Malik Nabers present from a Mystery Stocking from solos.   

with that being said, what cards are the “must haves” or best pickups to add to the lineup to improve that aren’t the 800k+ LTDs/Present Players? Im also not tapped in to what abilities (if any) are now good this year that weren’t good in the previous couple years.

edit: I also haven’t done legends or AKA solos yet but plan to wait for OVR increase for legends.

deez.....

Take some beatings with your team as is in Champs and Seasons to get familiar with the way MUT 25 plays, and if you're feeling confident after that, go into the Zero Chill Draft Event and rack up Snow, which is probably the quickest way to earn good cards in game. If you can withstand the cheese, that is.

Your better option is to use that 1.5 million to work the auction house until January 9, 2025, which is when the pervasive Zero Skill money teams will no longer have one-or-two 0 AP abilities on practically every player. Trying to get in today is a recipe for setting yourself back.
