FC 26 TOTS Is Over — Here's Exactly What to Do Before FUTTIES (May 30)

TOTS wrapped up on May 29 at 18:00 BST. If you're sitting there staring at a pile of untradeable fodder and 400K coins wondering what to do next — this is for you. The honest answer: don't rush anything. The next 5–7 days before FUTTIES arrives are the best low-pressure window of the entire FUT season. Here's how to use them.

1. Hold Your Fodder — Don't Discard or Lazy Sell Yet

The #1 mistake players make right after TOTS ends: panic-listing everything on the transfer market. Don't. Here's why:

• FUTTIES SBCs almost always require high-rated fodder (84–87 OVR) — the exact cards you're thinking of discarding right now.
• In FC 25, fodder prices jumped 15–25% in the week after TOTS ended because everyone suddenly needed cards for FUTTIES upgrade SBCs.
• Your untradeable packs? Don't open them now. Wait until EA announces FUTTIES packs — the pool will be refreshed with new cards.

Exceptions: cards below 82 OVR that aren't needed for any SBC threshold are safe to discard for coins.

2. Sell TOTS Cards Now — Prices Will Only Drop

If you own any tradeable TOTS cards, this weekend is your sell window. TOTS cards lose value fast once the promo ends because:

• Supply stays high (everyone farmed packs all month)
• Demand drops sharply — there are no more TOTS SBCs or objectives to push the meta
• FUTTIES will introduce new meta cards and players will shift attention

Rough sell timeline: prices typically bottom out 7–10 days after TOTS ends, then stabilize. If you haven't sold by June 6, you've missed the window.

3. Get Ready for FUTTIES — What We Know

FUTTIES is EA's end-of-year community celebration promo. Historically it arrives within 1–2 weeks of TOTS ending. Based on the FC 25 calendar, expect FUTTIES to drop around June 6–13, 2026. Key things to prepare:

• Save coins (aim for 500K+) — FUTTIES upgrade SBCs can be excellent value if you do them early before fodder prices spike.
• Don't open your saved packs yet — Wait until the FUTTIES pack pool is confirmed. Packs drop significantly in quality in the transition week.
• Check your Objectives — Some EOAE promo objectives may still be completable for a few more days. Check the in-game menu and finish any close to completion.
• Stockpile 84–86 OVR commons — These are the backbone of FUTTIES SBC fodder. Pick them up cheap via lazy sell right now while the market is quiet.

The TOTS Cards Worth Keeping in Your Squad

If you pulled any of these during TOTS, they're worth keeping even into FUTTIES — top-tier promo cards don't get replaced easily:

Yamal · TOTS 97

PAC 95 · SHO 94 · PAS 96 · DRI 97

Keep. Best RW in the game this cycle.

Haaland · TOTS 96

PAC 94 · SHO 97 · PAS 85 · PHY 93

Keep. 97 SHO is generational.

Tradeable versions of these? You could sell now (still commanding premium) or keep if they're core to your playstyle. No wrong answer — but the sell window is open right now.

Summary: Your 3-Step Plan for This Week

1. Sell tradeable TOTS cards by June 5 at the latest.
2. Hold all 84–87 OVR fodder for FUTTIES SBCs — don't lazy sell.
3. Save coin stash and sealed packs until FUTTIES is officially announced (expected ~June 6–13).

It's the quietest week of FUT. Use it wisely.
