In FIFA 21 there is now a new Flashback Ronaldo SBC. What can CR7 do in the light version?
What kind of card is that? The Ronaldo card is a special case that is rarely found in this form. Flashback cards are usually given to players who have achieved great things in the past and who are meant to remind them. So players who are a little weaker today get stronger cards again.

With Cristiano Ronaldo it’s the other way around: his flashback card is actually weaker than his normal card. There was such a case in FIAF 21 at Agüero. The new CR7 card is reminiscent of his early days at Manchester United, when Ronaldo wasn’t the over-the-top footballer we’ve known in recent years.
This is the advantage: Cristiano Ronaldo’s normal 92 card already costs over a million coins, and you don’t even need to start with his special cards. That means: Only a fraction of the players can even afford CR7.
The Flashback Ronaldo in SBC form costs according to solutions from football more like 300,000 coins. That’s still a lot, but much more affordable than any other Ronaldo version available to date. For him you have to solve the following 3 subtasks:
- An 80’s team with 1 player from Liga NOS and 1 TOTW (80 team chemistry)
- A team of 84 with 1 Manchester United player and 1 TOTW (75 team chemistry)
- An 86 team with 1 Premier League player (65 team chemistry)
If you already have suitable players in the club, you can exchange the card for even fewer coins. But is it worth it?
Ronaldo flashback gegen Gold Ronaldo
This is how Flashback does Ronaldo: If you compare the two cards next to each other, the most important points are immediately apparent.

–
- Flashback Ronaldo is faster than Gold Ronaldo.
- For all other values, Gold Ronaldo is better.
- There is a huge difference when it comes to shooting – Gold Ronaldo is much stronger here.
- The total value of Gold Ronaldo is higher (92).
- Flashback Ronaldo is used on the wing while Gold Ronaldo plays in the storm center.
- The weak foot only has 3 stars for Flashback-CR7 and 4 for Gold-Ronaldo.
- They both have 5-star skills.
So overall, it’s clear that the gold version is noticeably stronger than the flashback version – but that shouldn’t be surprising either. After all, you are comparing the same player, only once worth 300,000 and once worth 1.2 million.
Nevertheless, Flashback Ronaldo can be worthwhile for you. Namely, if you don’t have an absolute over-meta-team that already has CR7, but if you want to improve your current team selectively.
For example, players can equip the card with a finisher chemistry style to boost the values for shooting and dribbling. Then Flashback-Ronaldo is a very strong dribble, strong final and powerful outside player. It also goes well with Dybala, which is currently available in a good SBC.

The FIFA subreddit also has many ratings for the card. The tenor: You shouldn’t expect to get a Ronaldo with this card that is equivalent to the usual Ronaldo. But thanks to the special animations that Ronaldo has been given, he offers so many advantages over other players.
An example: User “Alisubtain“Played 29 weekend league games with the flashback variant. He claims to play in Division 1 and usually uses Gold Ronaldo. But this time he tested the flashback version: “With the right players and the right team around him, he’s actually very meta, can lead you to victories and will score a ton of goals. His degree will always be good because he is CR7, ”writes the user (via reddit): “But it’s the difficult games later in FUT Champions and in D1 where you can see the main difference. It’s the normal CR7 who can win games single-handedly, regardless of the team around him. And that’s the difference. “
All in all, the flashback version is more of a “Ronaldo for beginners” than an endgame card. A version for players who could not afford the standard version until now, but still want to have CR7 on their team. You should think carefully about whether you really want to invest these coins, or rather save on an icon or something similar.
The current TOTY, which you can currently find in packs, also has really strong cards. Ronaldo is there too – only for a good 9 million coins.
