Best Rush players under 85
Rush is back in EA FC 26, and the first early access playlist limits you to players who are rated 85 or lower. But there’s still plenty of great options on offer.
The early stages of Ultimate Team can be a struggle when coins and packs are hard to come by. Luckily, other than SBCs, one of the easiest ways to get some packs right off the bat is by playing Rush, which hands out substantial rewards to help you build your starter squads.
There’s only one Rush playlist available at launch, and that’s the Early Access mode, which features a strict 85 rating limit.
So, here are the best options to use so you can dominate these 5v5 matches.
Best FC 26 Rush players for Early Access playlist
Player | Club | Rating |

Phil Foden | Manchester City | 85 |
Ryan Gravenberch | Liverpool | 85 |
Ella Toone | Manchester United | 85 |
Lauren James | Chelsea | 85 |
Antoine Griezmann | Atletico Madrid | 85 |
Although there are thousands of players that fall under the 85 requirement, they’re not all suited to Rush’s frantic matches. So, we’ve focused on the cards that thrive on the ball, no matter what position they are in.
Unless you’re planning on staying back for the entire match, the best Rush players are the ones with plenty of pace. That’s why we’ve picked the likes of Alphonso Davies, Luiz Diaz, and Omar Marmoush, who can quickly get from one side of the pitch to the other.
We’ve also focused heavily on dribbling, as this will help you keep hold of the ball while you wait for your team to make runs. If this sounds more like your style, you’t go wrong with Phil Foden or Xavi Simmons.
But if you prefer someone who’s better all-round, to ensure you can contribute in defense as well as attack, a player Ryan Gravenberch should be your pick.
