I just find it weird how over a span of a month, overall the red rewards are worse.
Gold 1 a week last year used to get me 12 reds 81+, now it gets me 8 reds from any rank. So I could get 8 under 80 rated cards.
So I could get 88 wins a month compared to someone who gets 56 wins and the only difference is that I get one more of selection a week of 64-80 rated cards. It needs to be tiered better.
Top 100 used to get 44 81+ and an icon, now they get 20 random reds.
Another thing, like Futswap...like league sbcs, the concept is absolutely brilliant, but the excecusion again is absolutely terrible.
Is my understanding right that you only have 12 hours to redeem the 2000 WL points earned via WL in order to ensure qualification? If so, that's quite a small time frame that could easily be missed.

As much as you get less cards with no rating, you now get an option of which ones you chose. You now select 8 out of a possible 24 compared to a set 12.
Personally, the lowered quantity recieved isn’t an issue due to the selection addition.
I do however agree there should be some form of minimum rating such as 81+ though, but I guess it would be relatively unsustainable right now with weaker totes early on?
I also agree Gold 2 up to Elite 1 require tiering considerably better.

you don't 8 out of 24, but 2x 4 out of 24. Which is much worse, because you're most likely getting the four weakest cards twice, as their card weight is certainly higher.

What so the players from the totw that was actually active during fut champs aren’t available? Also for gold or above are you now potential giving people silvers? If so fut champs will be dead in a month. You seriously need to re-evaluate the rewards if that’s the case? Imagine finishing elite and getting only silvers?!
Fut champs is incredible hard not to mention time consuming. Give the higher ranks a minimum of at least gold cards. This really silly from Ea.

People need to realise the dilution of the red cards from monthly to weekly is a negative for players
it is balanced out by having a set number of players to choose from... creating a new level of permutation
but it then becomes unbalanced once more when you remove the guaranteed 81+ feature.
I agree with this. I'd say what, G3 and up should guarantee an 81 rated and above?
I haven't properly looked at totw, however apparently there's 8 players below 81 rating. That's going to be disappointing if the card weight is reflective of their informs in normal packs.

No. You're picking 8 from 92
Yes you get 8/92, but you also have a greater number of options than 12 to chose from. Theoretically you could likely have a better 8 than you previous 12 supplied as you now get a choice. It’ll just depend on duplicate selections each week and the drop rates of each player.

It’s completely variant on the odds on each player and how low they make the top rated players. If it’s more random, then it’ll be considerably less likely to get duplicate pick options each week. This week will tell I suppose, but people are acting as if they didn’t get cannon fodder before this change? I legit never got anything of use during the regular season in monthlies, so don’t see this change as a downgrade personally and like the selection idea.

makes absolutely no sense that we have do it beforehand.

This... without this we are getting screwed royally compared to last year
You could end up with 8x players in Gold 3 at the end of the month and all be 77 rated... it could genuinely happen and was impossible last year.
He gets it

Would be good to see this, even if it is in a form more limited than that in the H2H mode.

Make player picks not have dupes if there won't be minimum rating.
