If you need to get rid of fodder

We’re going to give this SBC a miss. It’s a cheap one, but unless you have fodder you really need to get rid of, we don’t think this is worth it. A 90.5 Meta Rating as a Complete Striker does tempt us a bit, but there are far better players out there at this point.
