FC 26 chemistry style cards are a key tool for staying competitive in Division Rivals during the early weeks of the game. These cards are unique to EA FC 26 Ultimate Team and boost two or three important stats for any player. While most players are familiar with Hunter and Shadow, there are other styles that can be just as helpful. Check out our FC 26 chemistry styles guide to understand what each of them does.
What are FC 26 chemistry styles?
There are 24 different FC 26 chemistry style cards, available only in Ultimate Team. You can find these cards in packs or on the transfer market, with those affecting speed usually costing the most. Most of these styles improve specific player attributes, while GK Basic and Basic reset players’ stats to their normal levels—useful if you’ve changed a player’s assigned style.
When you apply a chemistry style, it boosts either two or three of the main six attributes on a player card. To get these styles, go to the transfer market in the game, head over to the Consumables tab, and select “Player Chemistry Styles.”
If you’re undecided about which style boosts pace or passing, our list of the best FC 26 players covers the top 40 gold players in the game. Below are all the chemistry styles available in Ultimate Team, along with the maximum boost possible when applied to a fully boosted player. For more updates, check out the list of stadiums in FC 26.
