In this EURO Fantasy chip strategy post, I delve into everything Chips; what each one actually does, how you can use each one, and when is best to use each one.
Euro Fantasy Chips
What is the Wildcard Chip?
The Wildcard is identical to the Chip used in FPL, so managers should find it easy to navigate:
• Unlimited Transfers
• Squad Remains same next Matchday (MD)
• All Original Transfers Before WC is played are Removed

What is the Limitless Chip?
I would say the Limitless is the closest to the Free Hit in FPL, but with a few huge, key differences:
• Unlimited Transfers
• Unlimited Budget!
• Squad Remains same next Matchday (MD)
• All Original Transfers Before Limitless is played are Removed

Euro Fantasy Chip strategy:
When to Play?
There are a number of possible strategies for when to play the Chips. For me, to maximise points, you have to play at least 1 in the Group Stages; targeting the weak teams in the tournament, and tripling up on the big teams could result in big hauls.
The Limitless Chip should definitely be played in the Group Stages, so those premium players can be targeted when playing poor sides. In the Group Stage, this will occur every Matchday, so this is the ideal time to use it.

- Italy – TUR + WAL
- Switzerland – wal + tur
- Belgium – rus + fin
- Denmark – FIN + RUS
- Austria – mkd + ukr
- Netherlands – UKR + MKD

Summary of the ideal Euro chip strategy
For me, the best strategy is playing the Wildcard in MD2 & Limitless MD3, as it allows you to target the games that are predictable. The Last 16 will mostly be predictable, so a new team in QFs won’t be necessary.
