Every snipe starts with a filter. There are two kinds, and they behave very differently.
Single-player filters
You pick one card, say an 84-rated winger, and set a max buy under its usual price.
Good for: cards you know well, bigger margins per snipe, investments you’d buy anyway.
The catch: you’re waiting for one specific card to be listed cheaply. Many searches return nothing, so you use up your search limits for few hits.
Multi-player filters
You search a group: Gold · Premier League · Rare, or Gold · France · Common. Any card in the results listed under your max buy is a snipe.
Good for: volume. More cards means more mistakes and quick-sell listings to catch.
The catch: a single max buy has to suit every card in the group. Set it too high and you buy cards that are worth less than you paid. That’s why multi filters work best on cheap, similar-value cards: fodder, common golds, a nation or league whose cards trade in a tight range.
When demand moves, multi filters win
SBCs create sudden demand for particular nations, leagues and ratings. When a new SBC needs, say, French players from one league, cheap cards matching that combination start selling faster and for more. A multi filter on that combination catches the cheap listings before prices settle.
FUT Snipe Club’s Radar (Platinum) reads the live SBCs and suggests these combinations as hot filters.
Let the numbers decide
Guessing is expensive. Run a filter for a session, then open the Players tab. The filter leaderboard shows for each filter:
- Snipes and profit, over 1 day, 3 days or 7 days
- Average per snipe: is it worth the searches?
- With Show misses on: searches, misses and hit rate
Sort by Avg / snipe to find quality, or by Snipes to find volume. Switch between Single and Multi to compare the two styles on your own account.
A simple routine
- Run two or three multi filters on cheap golds for a session.
- Check the leaderboard. Drop the worst one.
- Add one single-player filter on a card you know.
- Repeat each day, keeping what works.
