Just in time for release, EA Sports is releasing the first OTW team for FUT mode tonight. At this point we will tell you what the abbreviation is all about, which players made it into the selection and when the second team will serve.

OTW cards are among the most coveted special cards in FIFA Ultimate Team mode. After the Italian Sandro Tonali started with his OTW SBC , the first FIFA 21 OTW team will be released tonight.

Arsenal London ‘s Thomas Partey and Real Madrid ‘s Martin Odegaard are the first FIFA 21 OTW cards to receive an upgrade. Both players made it to TOTW 3 , which also increases the overall rating of the special cards:

• CM: Thomas Partey (Arsenal London) – 84 OVR >>> 86 OVR
• ZOOM: Martin Odegaard (Real Madrid) – 83 OVR >>> 85 OVR

[Original post] FIFA 21 OTW? What is that?

OTW is an English abbreviation and stands for “Ones to Watch” – the German name is “Stars im Blickpunkt” . OTW cards are the most coveted special items during a FIFA – Season , and for good reason:

each year, EA Sports honors the most important transfers of the – Season  with a special card. Only players who changed clubs in the summer are given such a variant.

The special feature of the OTW cards is that they are dynamic items . Each time that player makes Team of the Week (or earns another performance-related special card), the OTW card increases accordingly.

Example Timo Werner : The gold card of the German comes to 85 OVR. Now, if he gets an Inform card in TOTW, the OTW card goes up to 86 OVR, then 87 OVR, and so on. The map is constantly evolving, whereas normally you would have to buy each inform individually.

So it’s no wonder that the cards are being traded for an exorbitant sum on the transfer market . However, it is also excellent for tactics: If a FIFA 21 OTW player is injured, the ticket prices fall. If you then strike and hope for a strong return from the injury break, you could potentially get quite a bargain.

FIFA 21 OTW Team 1 – These players are in

In FIFA 21 there will be significantly more OTW cards than last year. EA Sports will be releasing two OTW teams this time. The first 11 special cards can be found in packs starting tonight at 7:00 p.m. , Team 2 will follow exactly one week later.

These players are included in OTW Team 1

• Luis Suarez (88, ST, Atletico Madrid)
• Timo Werner (85, ST, Chelsea FC)
• Hakim Ziyech (85, ZO, Chelsea FC)
• Alex Telles (84, LV, Manchester United)
• Tomas Partey (84, CM, Arsenal)
• Gareth Bale (83, RH, Tottenham)
• Martin Odegaard (83, ZO, Real Madrid)
• Allan (83, ZO, Everton)
• Achraf Hakimi (83, RM, Inter Milan)
• Victor Osimhen (79, ST, SSC Napoli)
• Nathan Ake (79, IV, Manchester City)

OTW player vote 1

EA Sports has also started an OTW player vote on Twitter : In the poll you can choose between two top stars who switched to Inter Miami for the new – Season in the US MLS.

Blaise Matuidi and Gonzalo Higuain are up for grabs. You have until tonight at 9:00 p.m. to cast your vote. The player with the most votes gets an additional OTW card.

As you can see, the Bundesliga goes away empty-handed in FIFA 21 OTW Team 1 . But that will probably change with the second selection. In it we expect, for example, Leroy Sané from Bayern Munich, Douglas Costa , who has also moved to the Isar, or Kai Havertz after his move to Chelsea.

FIFA 22 – FUTs

What could be cooler than just relaxed gaming and doing some sofa sports on the side? In FIFA 22, the player is on the move fast, but without getting sore muscles. With the Ultimate Team Event cards, the collecting instinct is now also satisfied. However, the FUT Heroes keep creeping into my mind, so here are the best Ultimate Team Event cards that are definitely worth adding to your collection.

Heroes cards selected by EA for top qualities

Admittedly, the FUT heroes will cost quite a bit of coin, but it turns out that EA has once again brought some top-class players into the game when it comes to selection. As a collector and hunter, it’s an added attraction for FIFA gamers to now include their own favorite heroes in the portfolio and benefit from their individual skills. Both in the game and in team building, the FUTs will revolutionize the game once again.

EA SPORTS FC: FIFA GAME SERIES TO BE CONTINUED UNDER NEW NAME

Of course, the soccer simulation game series will not be discontinued completely. After FIFA 23, EA will relaunch the game under the name EA Sports FC and market it independently. Old FIFA hares should now become quite an ear, after all, the EA Sports Football Club used to be a part of the actual game for years. A lot of playing was rewarded, points could be collected and items, boosts or balls for the individual game modes could be unlocked.

In this context, there could also be a complete revolution of the classic game. There is a heated discussion in the FIFA community about whether the game, which is expected to be released in the fall of 2023, will be free-to-play. This option is said to be on the table for the game makers from EA, because: It seems that EA earns most of its money with the purchases of FIFA Points in the game mode Ultimate Team and not with the sale of the game itself.
