Build A Soccer Squad Guide: How to Play

New to Build A Soccer Squad? This is your starting point. It explains the core gameplay loop, every system that matters, and links out to deep guides for each topic so you always know what to do next. Think of it as the map to the whole wiki.

What kind of game is this?

Build A Soccer Squad is a football card-collection game on Roblox, currently in early beta with 99.4M+ visits. You collect footballers - over 1,000 spanning 1970 to today - and assemble the highest-rated squad you can. Cup Mode is live: once your squad hits 93 OVR, you enter tournaments to win cups and unlock 105+ OVR Cup Players. The 2030 Future Stars wave is live with eight 2030 nations, and the FUTURE code banks 170 Rerolls and 160 Refreshes across five active codes.

The core gameplay loop

Almost everything you do flows through one simple loop:

1. Earn currency through daily rewards, the shop and general play.
2. Open packs (called rolls) to collect new player cards.
3. Build your squad by slotting the best cards into each position.
4. Improve chemistry using nation and league links plus secondary positions.
5. Complete squads to unlock 99 OVR captains and Premium 2002 captains.
6. Enter Cup Mode at 93 OVR and win cups for 105+ OVR Cup Players.
7. Reroll weak cards into more chances and repeat.

Master that loop and the rest is optimization. Each step has a dedicated guide below.

Currency and the shops

The Captains update added an in-game currency, a daily shop, and an hourly shop of 100+ OVR Prime players. Currency is the engine of your progress, so learning to earn and spend it well matters more than luck. Start here:

• How to get coins fast - every reliable income method.
• Best packs to open - where your currency earns the most.
• Reroll and refresh guide - when bulk actions are worth it.

Building a strong squad

A squad is more than eleven high numbers. Two systems decide your real strength:

• Chemistry rewards linking players by nation and league. A well-linked mid-rated team can outscore a random high-OVR one.
• Secondary positions let cards cover more than one slot, which helps you complete a formation and tighten links.

Our chemistry guide explains both in detail, and the players tier list shows which cards to build around.

Captains: your collection anchor

The headline earned cards are 99 OVR captains from completed 2026 squads and Premium Captains from select 2002 teams. Captains are the reason to focus currency on one team at a time. Learn the method in how to unlock captains and pick targets with the captains tier list.

Cup Mode: your competitive goal

At 93 OVR, you unlock Cup Mode - tournament play where winning 5 cups grants 105+ OVR Cup Players. This is the game’s main competitive loop today. Read the full Cup Mode guide and Cup Players page.

The code system is live. Redeem FUTURE, UNIVERSE, CONSOLE, LIMITBREAKER, and DOUBLE for free Rerolls - see the codes page and how to redeem guide. Stack codes with the 2030 Future Stars update, FUTURE code update, and 2x Lucky Servers.
