The Bundesliga TOTS Upgrade SBC is live and despite some inital criticism, I actually think this a really decent value SBC!
Bundesliga Team of the Season arguably has more high calibre players than the Premier League TOTS, yet this SBC is way cheaper! With 5 players over 1 million coins, and 5 more in the 200k-950k range, there is plenty of potentialy for a really solid addition to your club from this SBC.
How much does the Bundesliga TOTS Upgrade SBC cost?
Needing two segments, including an 83-Rated Squad with a minimum of 2 85 Rated cards and an 86-Rated Squad with a minimum of 1 Team of the Season or Team of the Season Moments card this SBC is coming in at 98.4K coins.
At around 65% of what the Premier League TOTS Upgrade cost, I really think this is a cracking price. It's very difficult when comparing the 2 squads, to definitely say one is better than the other. Removing the Prem tax for this SBC makes it a far more attractive prospect than the Premier League one in my opinion.
What can you get from the Bundesliga TOTS Upgrade?
With just the 18 players available from this SBC, 10 are worth more than the cost from scratch. Just 8 are worth less. The potential upside here is one of 6 cards that are worth comfortably 8 times more than the value of the SBC at the time of release. Bellingham, Nkunku, Musiala, De Ligt, Mane and Goretzka would all be superb pick ups. With Frimpong, Davies, Diaby and Kimmich in the next tier of cards, it really does feel worth the gamble. Of course the 8 almost discard TOTS cards remaining would be massive dissappointments (like my Brandt), but I really think this is worth the risk.

Is the Bundesliga TOTS Upgrade SBC worth it?
With two packs (a gold pack and a premium electrum players pack) back, a significant chance of a player worth far more than the cost of the SBC, and the ease with which fodder is attained currently, I really think this SBC has once again been very well priced. It toes the line between too much of a risk and too much of a no brainer.
Some of you will get a Bellingham or an Nkunku. I say you will, because that will never be my fate. I'll take my Brandt and be happy with it.
It costs a decent bit of Mane, but you don't have to be inSane to see De Ligt and try and secure yourself a Brandt new TOTS.
My verdict: Complete!
