FIFA 17 TOTS Cards Introduction

What is the Team of the Season?
 

Since FUT 12, that in every end of the season (European calendar), more exactly in May and June, EA Sports build teams based on the players real performances on that season. Unlike what happens with the TOTY, in the TOTS the players are chosen by their performances in the season and not for the full calendar year. Instead of releasing a single team, the Team of the Season is made by around sixteen squads, each one of a popular league or region. Besides these ones, a All-Star MLS is also released in early August.

Each Team of the Season has 23 or 18 players that can be of any quality. Depending of which TOTS we are talking about, the players may be chosen by the community (Community Team) or by Electronic Arts (other ones).

To each one of these players it is assigned a new blue card, replacing the corresponding regular card. In other words, during the period that a player gets his TOTS cards in packs, it is impossible to find his regular card there. Your odds of pulling a TOTS card from a pack are exactly the same of pulling the regular card of that player in another time.

If you own the regular card of a TOTS player, your card will keep unchanged. If you want the improved version, you will need to buy the corresponding TOTS version in the market or pray to pull it from a pack.

FIFA 17 TOTS Cards Availability

When FIFA 17 TOTS Cards will be available?
 

The Team of the Season is released once per year. In FUT 17, the estimated date for the first TOTS announcement is May 19, 2017 (Friday).

The most popular squads are announced at Wednesdays, at 4pm (UK time), during the period of six week in which TOTS are active. The cards are released in packs in the same day two hours later, at 6pm, at the same time of TOTW of these weeks and you can find them in packs during a week. The other Teams of the Season cards are announced at Fridays, at 4pm (UK time), and are released in packs in the same day two hours later, at 6pm. They only last 72 hours in packs. It is possible to find one of these cards in any pack with rare players cards that you open during the TOTS season.

The release of the FIFA 17 TOTS cards are responsible for one of the biggest market crashes. It is made in a time when many gamers already have their solid teams and are looking for a way to improve them without spending all their coins in TOTS cards and getting better improvements than the ones from TOTW cards.

FIFA 17 TOTS Cards Ratings and Stats

How big are the ratings and stats boosts?
 

The ratings and attributes of FUT 17 TOTS cards are usually boosted in four, five or six points. The attributes have a similar increase but it doesn’t mean that all attributes have to be improved. The position of the players in these cards may change if, in the most of the season, they played really well in a different position. If a player has moved from one club to another one, he is candidate to a TOTS card only in the club where he was in form.

You can have the regular card and the TOTS card of the same player in your club. However, you cannot use them both in your squad at the same time.

Each player can only have one TOTS card, even if he was elected for more than one team of the season. For example, he may be chosen to the Community or EASFC TOTS and make also part of the TOTS of the league where he plays. Any of these cards will be exactly the same.

 

 
 
 
 

FIFA 17 TOTS Cards Prices

What happens to the TOTS cards’ prices?
 

During one month, between May and June, EA Sports selects the best players of the season for each of the main leagues and releases them in several teams named Teams of the Season. Alongside the TOTY, this is the moment responsible for the biggest price falls in the game.

Although it seems like there are similarities between the TOTY and the TOTS, they’re not that similar and for that their effect on the market is also distinct. Firstly, the TOTS is responsible for the release of many more blue cards but none of them are in the same level as TOTY, and for that reason their price is always lower. The remaining cards’ prices are lower during TOTS because it’s closer to the end of the game, and as you’ve already realised cards prices tend to go down with time. The biggest difference between them is about duration. While the TOTY only goes for a week, the TOTS keeps going for several weeks and that contributes for bigger windows of opportunities. Instead of selling all your cards and then buying them again, you can take advantage of the price fluctuations along the TOTS weeks in order for you to get rich.

TOTS players tend to sell for the most FIFA coins right after they are initially released into FIFA packs. They generally tend to gradually decline until they level out and either hold their value, or slightly increase again. The FIFA 17 TOTS cards prices are affected by the player popularity, the league, the position and the new ratings.

In the coming weeks, we will add a much deeper explanation to what will happen to the FIFA 17 TOTS cards prices in the market.
