FIFA 20 Prime Icon Moments: Dynamic Images Leaked Ahead of Winter Refresh
By Max Mallow
FIFA 20 Prime Icon Moments dynamic images were leaked Tuesday ahead of their expected arrival in FIFA Ultimate Team.
Prime Icon Moments, expected during Winter Refresh, were first introduced in FIFA 19. These cards are upgraded versions of Prime Icons and they changed the meta and market value of Icons. Only a handful of Icons received Prime Moments versions last year, but it seems the entire roster is expected to receive a version in FIFA 20.

Community member InsideRedHat posted an Imgur gallery featuring dynamic images for Prime Icon Moments.
While Icons have different player images for their base, middle and prime versions, Prime Icon Moments receive dynamic images representing special moments in their careers. Those moments are then detailed in the player bios of those cards.
Prime Icon Moments caused controversy last year when EA Sports decided not to release Squad Building Challenges for the top tier cards like Pele, Eusebio and Ruud Gullit. Instead, EA Sports released Prime SBCs when the company stated there weren't any more coming in FIFA 19.
With Icon SBCs absent in FIFA 20, it'll be interesting to see how EA Sports approaches the release. Will Moments cards dominate the next Icon Swaps promotion? Probably. But, for most players the top tier Moments cards will be out of reach on the transfer market and likely extinct for the rest of the game cycle.
