FIFA 19 Team of the Season
What is the FIFA 19 Team of the Season Promotion?
Since FUT 12, that in every end of the season (European calendar), more exactly in May and June, Electronic Arts builds several squads based on the players real performances on that season. Unlike what happens with the TOTY, on the TOTS the players are chosen by their performances in the season and not in the full calendar year. Instead of releasing a single team, the Team of the Season is made by several squads, each one of a popular league or region.
During the FIFA 19 TOTS Promotion, Electronic Arts releases several promo packs, themed cards and squad building challenges. Details on FIFA 19 Team of the Season offers will be updated below.
FIFA 19 Team of the Season Release Dates
When the FIFA 19 TOTS promotion will be released?
The TOTS event has been going since a few years ago. It is usually one of the last FIFA events of the season.
In the following table, you can see the TOTS event release dates of previous years:
| FIFA 18 | 27 April – 04 June 2018 |
| FIFA 17 | 12 May – 30 June 2017 |
| FIFA 16 | 29 April – 10 June 2016 |
| FIFA 15 | 20 May – 02 July 2015 |
| FIFA 14 | 23 April – 30 May 2014 |
| FIFA 13 | 08 May – 23 June 2013 |
| FIFA 12 | 02 May – 06 June 2012 |
TOTS event takes place once per year. During its release, it is possible to improve our teams and make amazing deals in the transfer market. That’s why it is normal to see the FIFA community eager and waiting for the launch of the first squad.
Year after year, EA follows a very strict calendar. Looking at the release dates of the previous years, it is possible to get a good idea about when the TOTS of FUT 19 will start. The experience tells us that we can predict the FIFA 19 Team of the Season release date based on two factors: international competitions and MC TOTS discussion. This isn’t a World Cup or Euro Cup year, so the end of major European leagues will be in line with what happened in 2017, when the first TOTS was released on May 12.
Like it happened in previous years, the Community TOTS will be the first one to be launched. Usually, EA Sports stars to consult the community about the most suitable players for this team 3 weeks before it goes out. Based on what we already explained, we predict that the first FIFA 19 Team of the Season squad will be released on May 10, 2019.
According to the lineup of the last year, the estimated release dates for each squad are the following ones (we believe that this year, more squads will be released but these are the main ones that are almost confirmed):

FIFA 19 TOTS Cards Rules
How the FIFA 19 TOTS Cards Work
Based on what happened last year, these are the official rules we expect to see this year:
RULE 1
AVAILABILITY
FIFA 19 TOTS cards from leagues become available in packs for a full week. During this period, they replace the corresponding regular not coloured cards. In other words, it is not possible to find a regular card of a TOTS player this week.
1.1. If you own the regular card of a TOTS player, your card will keep unchanged. If you want the new version, you will need to buy the corresponding version in the market or pull it from a pack.
1.2. Each one of the biggest league’s squads features an extra player that is only available via Squad Building Challenge.
RULE 2
RATINGS AND STATS
During the event, the best players of the season will be released in packs with upgraded ratings as unique items. The ratings and stats of these cards are permanent. They don’t change.
2.1. If a player has moved from one club to another one, he is a candidate for a TOTS card only in the club where he was in form.
2.2. Each player can only have one TOTS card, even if he was selected for more than one team of the season.
RULE 3
SQUADS
Each Team of the Season squad has 23 players that can be of any quality (see exceptions on 1.2.). Depending on which TOTS we are talking about, the players may be chosen by the community (Community TOTS) or by Electronic Arts (other ones).
