Prepare for FIFA 23 TOTS (Team of the Season) Promo, It’s that time of the year once again as the TOTS promo rolls right around the corner. The final promo before the game begins the inevitable descent into irrelevance, but there’s still a fair bit of time between now and then.
FIFA 23 TOTS (Team of the Season) is one of the biggest and most exciting promotions in the FIFA Ultimate Team calendar. Overpowered cards will be added to the game in their numbers and the power curve will be significantly affected.
If you’d like to fully maximize this year’s TOTS promo and put your club in the best possible position to compete with the ridiculously overpowered teams that will be borne from it, then you want to pay close attention to this guide. Here, we discuss the information we have about the TOTS promo, how to prepare for it, and what to expect at the end of the promo.
The Format of the TOTS Promo
There’s a pattern to the format of this promo, based on what we’ve seen from previous years. This makes it a bit easy to know what to expect even before official announcements are made. This year will be pretty similar to the last. From April 21st, which marks the end of the Trophy Titans promo, we’ll get the TOTS Warm-Up series which we expect to include a lot of SBCs and Objectives.
In terms of pack content, nothing is confirmed to be in packs at the time of writing. However, there are rumors that EA might do a “Best of” series, handpicking certain players from previous promos and putting them back into packs for the week preceding the official beginning of the TOTS promo.
Official Announcements
As far as official announcements go, we already know what to expect in terms of the Community TOTS nominees. Voting is closed now, but you can still check out the list. The official Community TOTS team will be released on the 28th of April, 2023. That day marks the beginning of the promo, but let’s take a look at how the rest of it is expected to unfold in terms of dates.
The expected schedule of the TOTS Promo for FIFA 23 is as follows:
| Team | Release Date |
|---|---|
| TOTS Warm-Up Series | April 21, 2023 |
| Community TOTS | April 28, 2023 |
| Premier League TOTS | May 5, 2023 |
| Bundesliga TOTS | May 12, 2023 |
| La Liga TOTS | May 19, 2023 |
| Serie A TOTS | May 26, 2023 |
| Ligue 1 TOTS | June 2, 2023 |
| Ultimate TOTS | June 9, 2023 |
Other leagues will also be involved, but the expected dates for those releases are heavy speculations. Typically, they are released at the same time as the main team or a few days after. We expect TOTS squads from these leagues: Eredivisie (Netherlands), EFL (England second tier), Saudi Pro League, Liga Portugal, Süper Lig (Turkey), Belgium Pro League, Rest of World, MLS (United States)
How to Prepare for the TOTS Promo
The first thing that many people make sure to do in preparation for the TOTS promo is to save as many packs as possible. Now, people that are planning to do that typically start weeks (sometimes, months!) before the promo actually begins.
However, I think you can still get a good number of packs saved even if you only start on the day that the Warm-Up series begins. It’s important to note that the rewards you get from FUT Champs are tradeable. So, if you want to save the coins or players you get for TOTS, it’s up to you.
Completing objectives is another great way to grind for packs during the TOTS promo. Objectives are challenges that you can complete in-game to earn rewards.
Some objectives are very easy, while others may require you to put in a bit more work. Completing all of the objectives in a group will usually get you a good pack reward.
There are also daily and weekly objectives that you can complete to earn small rewards, which can add up over time.
Lastly, Upgrade SBCs are a great way to grind for packs. These SBCs require you to submit players into a squad-building challenge, and in return, you’ll get upgraded versions of those players or other rewards.
Sometimes these upgrades can include TOTS cards, which is what you’re hoping for during the TOTS promo. These SBCs can be a bit expensive, but they’re worth it if you’re looking for high-value packs.
So, if you’re looking to prepare for the TOTS promo, I recommend focusing on these three methods of grinding for packs. The more packs you can save, the better your chances of packing a TOTS card.
As far as what to expect from the TOTS promo itself, it’s safe to say that the power curve will be significantly affected. Overpowered cards will be added to the game, and these cards will have incredible stats that will make them must-haves for many players.
The main TOTS squads will be released one league at a time, and each release will include a team of players who had exceptional seasons in their respective leagues.
There will also be SBCs and Objectives released during each release, which will give players the opportunity to earn high-value TOTS cards. These SBCs and Objectives will usually require you to submit TOTS cards as part of the requirements, so it’s important to save any that you do pack.
The Ultimate TOTS squad will be the last release of the promo and will include the best players from all of the previous releases. These players will be incredibly rare and will have some of the best stats in the game.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the TOTS promo is one of the most exciting times of the year for FIFA players. The power curve is significantly affected, and there’s always the opportunity to pack incredibly rare and valuable cards.
If you’re looking to fully maximize this year’s TOTS promo, then I recommend focusing on saving packs, grinding for high-value packs through Rivals, FUT Champs, Objectives, and Upgrade SBCs.
With a bit of luck, you’ll be able to pack some of the most overpowered cards in the game and put your club in the best possible position to compete with the ridiculously overpowered teams that will be borne from the TOTS promo.
