How to use FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions in FC 26 to add playstyles

The FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions add a new dimension in FC 26 that we haven’t seen before in Ultimate Team.

For the first time, we can decide what playstyles should sit on our FUT Birthday promo items. Let’s find out how the system works and what the limitations are.

How to add playstyles with FC 26 FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions

The FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions are an exclusive set of upgrades only applicable to promo cards that you obtain from the packs. However, this rule only applies to special cards of active footballers; Icons and Heroes have assigned playstyles and playstyle+.

Once you obtain a FUT Birthday card, you’ll notice that they don’t have any playstyles. Go to the evolutions section, and you’ll find the FUT Birthday Bakery options.

There are three types of FUT Birthday Bakery evolutions.

• PlayStyles Bakery: Unlimited entries. You can use them as many times as you want.
• PlayStyle+ Bakery: Limited to one repeat for each PlayStyle+ with a cooldown of six days.
• Premium PlayStyle+ Bakery: Similar to the option above, but doesn’t have a cooldown. However, you need to spend 15,000 coins or 100 FC Points to use them.

Let’s look at an example to understand how it works.

Suppose you have received Kobbie Mainoo’s FUT Birthday card. First, go through the PlayStyles Bakery and apply eight base options of your liking. There’s no cooldown, so you can use as many as you want. Next, it’s time to add PlayStyle+ Bakery options. You can add up to two of them, but you also have to ensure that there’s no cooldown.

If you have a cooldown, you can either choose an available alternative option or you can spend 15,000 to add a Premium PlayStyle+ Bakery option. You can choose to add up to two of them to strengthen the card.

If you get a lower-rated FUT Birthday card, you can also use it in non-Bakery evolutions that apply playstyles. This will usually be for promo cards that are rated 88 or below.

Slay the Spire 2 isn’t your typical deckbuilder, where you don’t have to take care of your health.

While there are five different characters to pick from, none of them is immortal. They will all take damage, and they will perish if you’re not careful. Taking damage is inevitable; no matter what you do, you’ll always end up receiving damage.

What matters is whether you’re healing your character at the correct moments.

How to heal in Slay the Spire 2

Healing is a premium activity in Slay the Spire 2. You can’t heal whenever you want, and restoring HP comes at a price. You’ll occasionally come across Rest Spots that appear as a campfire on your path. These spots can be found only sporadically, so you’ll need to plan carefully. Their locations on every run is compeltely random.

When you’re at the spot, you’ll have two different options: Rest or Smith. If you choose the latter, you can improve a card by applying different upgrades. If you choose the former, you’ll be able to recover a percentage of your character’s lost health.

You can also find different Relics and consumables on your run, and some of them might allow you to restore HP. Potions are one-time use, and you can have a maximum of three at a time. This method isn’t a guaranteed solution since all runs are random. It could happen that you might be unable to find an applicable Relic or consumable.

Slay the Spire 2 has five characters, and one of them has a healing ability. The Ironclad’s default relic, the Burning Blood, allows you to recover 6 HP at the end of combat. This is an extremely useful relic to have, which ranks him well on our characters’ tier list.

Outside of these methods, there’s no other way to recover HP and restore the health of your character in Slay the Spire 2. The same methods also apply if you’re playing co-op with your friends.
