This year, EA introduced a new event called “Team of the Year Warm-Up” in the week prior to TOTY itself, featuring time-limited Objectives and Squad-Building Challenges.

SBC: Repeatable, league-specific upgrades (once the full team is in packs).What TOTY Objectives and SBCs will we see? If you’re still rocking golds, or mostly untradeable, you should be fine. But if you decide to hang onto them, you won’t lose anything like as much as you might have done previously. So is it worth selling your team? If all your coins are tied up in high-rated special cards, then yes. We will probably see Prime Icons, and rare meta cards like FUT Hero David Ginola, take a short-term hit, but for the most part we will see a continuation of the gradual, steady decline in prices that has been going on for the last few months.

The sheer volume of high-quality special cards released through promos like Winter Wildcards means that very competitive teams can already be assembled on the cheap.Īll of which is to say that there won’t be a traditional market crash where everything valuable plummets overnight, because most cards are already at historic lows. Rare Gold players are historically cheap, with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi both available for under 300k, while the most expensive Rare Gold of this cycle, Kylian Mbappe, is now under 900k.

This year, it’s not quite so simple, because the puppetmaster economists at EA have been fiddling the market in new ways.

When is Team of the Year in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team?ĮA Sports is sticking with the slightly later timing it adopted last cycle for Team of the Year in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, which means the first TOTY players will go into packs at 6pm GMT on Friday, 21st January.

This is the big one! Team of the Year brings the largest player boosts, the most exciting upgrade packs, and by far the most opportunities for EA Sports to dive into your wallet and roll around like Neymar Jr hit by a stiff breeze. And if you think that’s hyperbole, just go look at a few TOTY YouTube thumbnails. It’s here! Take your history books out, yeah, and throw them in the bin, because after Team of the Year in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, they will surely have to be rewritten.
