Limitbreaker Tier List for Build A Soccer Squad
Chase priority for Limitbreaker cards in Build A Soccer Squad: S-tier Beckham, Maldini, and Courtois from the console patch, plus how the original 10 fit the ranking.
This Limitbreaker tier list ranks chase priority for the strongest card tier in Build A Soccer Squad. Limitbreakers sit above the normal OVR ceiling, so knowing which names to force first — especially the console trio Beckham, Maldini, and Courtois — saves weeks of unfocused rolling.
How we rank Limitbreakers
Unlike captains, Limitbreakers are not unlocked by finishing one fixed squad. We rank them by:
- Meta priority — newest and most discussed chase cards first
- Role coverage — attack, defense, and goalkeeper value across formations
- Progression fit — how cleanly the card slots into a Cup Mode / 100+ squad
Always keep chemistry in mind. An S-tier Limitbreaker that breaks every link can wait until you can absorb it.
Tier overview
| Tier | Meaning | Current focus |
|---|---|---|
| S | Chase first when available | Beckham, Maldini, Courtois |
| A | Core original Limitbreaker pool | Original 10 — complete via Breakout / quests |
| B | Situational holds | Limitbreaker pieces that do not fit your links yet |
S tier — console Limitbreaker trio
The console update added three new Limitbreaker cards to the shared pool:
| Card | Why it is S-tier |
|---|---|
| Beckham | Newest attacking / midfield Limitbreaker chase from the console wave |
| Maldini | Elite defensive Limitbreaker — anchors a high-OVR back line |
| Courtois | Goalkeeper Limitbreaker — rare top-tier GK upgrade path |
These three are the current priority chase set because they are new, highly visible, and expand positions that matter in Cup Mode. Deep page: Beckham / Maldini / Courtois.
A tier — the original 10 Limitbreakers
The Limitbreaker patch shipped 10 Limitbreaker cards, plus Breakout reward sets and extra GB/SB support cards. Treat the original ten as an A-tier completion project:
- Finish Breakout sets in the Rewards tab
- Run Limitbreaker-related quests when they appear
- Keep rolling while 8-hour quests refill Rerolls and Refreshes
- Use the LIMITBREAKER code (25 Rerolls + 25 Refreshes) before long sessions
Full system overview: Limitbreaker cards.
Exact individual rankings inside the original ten will keep shifting as the community tests Cup Mode lineups. For now, any original Limitbreaker that fits your chemistry is worth keeping over a random high OVR duplicate.
B tier — hold or reroll later
Park Limitbreaker cards (or near-Limitbreaker Breakout pieces) in B when they:
- Clash with your nation/league structure
- Duplicate a position you already solved with a Cup Player or Prime
- Arrive before your squad can support the rating jump
Do not panic-reroll unique Limitbreakers. Store them until your 99 OVR or 100+ core can absorb the chemistry change.
Recommended chase order
- Redeem codes — UNIVERSE, CONSOLE, LIMITBREAKER, DOUBLE (codes).
- Stabilize 93+ OVR for Cup Mode income.
- Force the console trio — Beckham, Maldini, Courtois — when pulls or objectives point that way.
- Complete Breakout sets for the original Limitbreaker path.
- Only then reshuffle your eleven around multiple Limitbreakers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common questions.
Which Limitbreaker cards should I chase first?
Prioritize the newest console trio — Beckham, Maldini, and Courtois — when they fit your formation, then continue completing Breakout and quest paths for the original Limitbreaker set.
Are Beckham, Maldini, and Courtois better than the original Limitbreakers?
They are the newest high-priority chase cards from the console update and sit in S-tier for current meta priority. Exact in-game ratings can shift with balance patches, so chemistry fit still matters.
How many Limitbreaker cards are in the game?
The Limitbreaker patch introduced 10 cards, and the console update added 3 more — Beckham, Maldini, and Courtois — for an expanded top-tier pool.
Do I need Cup Mode before chasing Limitbreakers?
Not required, but a 93+ OVR Cup Mode squad funds the grind. Strong currency income and saved Rerolls matter more than early Limitbreaker luck.
