Rookie Premiere Tips
If you're completing sets to earn Rookie Premiere Players in M27, here are a few tips that have helped me so far:
- Do NOT use 93s in the 95 OVR RZ Set; use them in the 93-94 OVR Bulk Exchange Set instead! It takes 16x 93s to build a 97 OVR w/ the 95 OVR upgrade set, but only 10x 93s for a 97 OVR w/ the Bulk Exchange Set! (see image below)
- Use Weekly Spotlight Tokens on the 89+ OVR Ultimate Legends or Flashbacks Token Exchange Sets to convert your extra tokens into Coins/Training. Play any unplayed Flashbacks, Collector Series, Legends, Ultimate Legends, or Team of the Week Solo Challenges to earn more Weekly Spotlight Tokens.
- Use Season Tickets in the Store to purchase Boom or Bust, or Loading Up Packs to convert extra tickets into Coins/Training.
- If you haven't completed your Epic Solo Challenges, the Snap Fantasy and Blaze reward packs you receive from these challenges can help provide pieces needed for bulk exchange sets.
- If you're confident in your H2H skills, 99 OVR RZ Champions can be earned by completing the Rookie Premiere H2H Event! (limit of 3)
- Here is the total number of players at each OVR you would need to complete two RP sets (w/ estimated total cost on Xbox due to fluctuating prices):
- 8x 99 OVR RZ Champions
- 1,400,000 x 8 = 11,200,000
- 48x 97 OVR RZ Heroes
- 215,000 x 48 = 10,320,000
- 192x 95 OVR Any Elites
- 55,000 x 192 = 10,560,000
- 480x 93 OVR Any Elites (Best Value)
- Using the 93-94 Bulk Exchange Set
- 19,000 x 480 = 9,120,000
- 1,152x 91 OVR Any Elites
- Using the 91-92 Bulk Exchange Set
- 10,000 x 1,152 = 11,520,000
- 8x 99 OVR RZ Champions

Conclusion
Prices fluctuate depending on the time/day of the week, but as we get closer to the end of M26, I'd expect the cost to complete RP sets to rise steadily. At the moment, buying cheap 93s and exchanging 10x of them in the bulk exchange set for 1x 97 OVR Redzone Royale Hero appears to be the most efficient way to make progress.
Unless you're sitting on a mountain of Coins, it's going to take a combination of methods, a bit of patience, and some grinding to complete RP sets, but it can be done.
If you're a newer player or someone without a lot of extra resources to convert into pieces for sets, there's always the free RP Champion that can be earned with the Tokens found in Rookie Premiere Solo Challenges and Field Pass. With all of the objectives available after Part 3 today, earning the free RP Champion for M27 can be done rather easily. So, get that done soon if you haven't!
