Quickest method to complete EA FC 27 Hannibal’s Haunting Objective in Ultimate Team
The fastest way to finish the Hannibal’s Haunting Objective in EA FC 27 Ultimate Team is to combine all three pitch tasks into a single match plan so you only have to play 13 games in total. Since every in-game requirement works in any FUT game mode, you don’t have to stress over competitive matchmaking unless you want to.
Best game modes to play
Squad Battles on Semi-Pro difficulty is the most efficient mode for this grind because halves are short and you can guarantee goals, assists, and wins against low-rated AI squads. If you prefer online modes, you can jump into Division Rivals or Rush to progress your weekly rewards at the same time, though Squad Battles ensures you never waste a match without scoring with your striker.
Best lineup and SBC strategy
- Use an attacking formation: Set your squad up in a 4-3-3 (4), 4-4-2, or 4-2-4 formation so your fast wingers are constantly feeding passes into your central striker.
- Check your striker’s main position: For Thirteen Nightmares, make sure the player scoring your goals has ST listed as their primary position on their card, rather than an alternate role. Once you finish your first 7 matches and unlock 84 OVR Nicolas Pépé, you can slot him straight in since his Ultimate Scream card has ST as his main position.
- Pair an 85+ PAC winger with your striker: Use a winger or attacking midfielder with at least 85 Pace to set up your main-position striker in the first 7 matches. A single goal assisted by your 85+ PAC player and scored by your ST counts toward both Shadow Runner and Thirteen Nightmares at once.
- Keep a standard defender in your starting 11: Practically every gold center-back or full-back in Ultimate Team has over 66 Defending, so keeping your normal backline intact will automatically clear Grave Keeper after your first 6 wins.
- Spam repeatable upgrade SBCs: To clear Witch’s Brew in under two minutes without spending coins, submit low-rated untradeable bronze and silver cards into daily Bronze Upgrade or Silver Upgrade SBCs four times. You can also use this opportunity to complete the SBCs for Ultimate Scream Puzzle Completionist Objective.

Is the Hannibal Ultimate Scream card worth it?
The 84 OVR Hannibal Ultimate Scream card is easily worth grinding for in EA FC 27 Ultimate Team, especially since he costs zero coins and comes bundled with 330 seasonal tokens and an 84 OVR Nicolas Pépé. His standout feature is having CAM All Roles++ and CM All Roles++, which lets him slot into any central midfield or attacking midfield setup with maximum tactical awareness.
On the pitch, Hannibal feels quick and responsive in tight spaces thanks to his 86 Agility, 86 Balance, 88 Ball Control, and 4-Star Skill Moves. Pairing those dribbling numbers with the Technical and First Touch PlayStyles makes him tough to dispossess when turning away from pressing defenders.
His passing package is built for quick link-up play, combining 86 Short Pass, 85 Long Pass, and 88 Curve with the meta Pinged Pass and Tiki Taka PlayStyles. Going forward, his 91 Attacking Positioning and 89 Shot Power make him dangerous making late runs into the box, while 85 Stamina, 89 Aggression, and 76 Stand Tackle let him put in a solid shift as a box-to-box midfielder.
The main drawbacks on this card are his 3-Star Weak Foot and 80 Finishing, so you will want to shift the ball onto his right foot before shooting. Slapping one of the free Shadow chemistry styles from this objective onto him makes him an elite box-to-box CM, while a Hunter turns him into a dangerous CAM who is also well positioned for future Ultimate Team Evolutions.
