    @asromafanisme As far as I know, answer lies in your problem statement - "evolving a base icon after turning them red. It was supposed to be cosmetic change only"

    In game, cosmetic change meaning card type change. Since evolution has requirement of card of type of base icon card, your red card is ineligible for this evolution.

      @sanket_360 A cosmetic change that alters how a card functions is no longer a "cosmetic" change. This is a bug from EA's side, and players were not warned about its side effect before applying the Red evolution. Hence, instead of being rewarded by achieving a certain WL wins, I am being punished.

      The solution I provided above (exchanging my red Beckham with an untradeable base icon Beckham) is pretty straightforward and easy to do.
