FUT Champs has always been the most challenging game mode in which to find regular success, but EA Sports decided to ramp up that intensity even more in EA FC 25.
Weekend League or Champions Finals, allows competitors to go against the game’s best talent to earn rewards in Ultimate Team. However, since its introduction, this mode has seen several significant changes.
At first, it challenged players to complete 40 matches in a 48-hour window over a weekend. Then, EA lowered that to 20 games, and now players will only have 15 chances to prove themselves in EA FC 25.
This switch comes after EA admitted that qualifying for the Champions Finals was too accessible in EA FC 24. So instead, EA FC 25 players will have to go through a more challenging mode that rewards higher-skilled users for performing better.
EA FC 25 FUT Champs qualification process
Play-Offs qualification
EA did not reveal how players earn Play-Offs qualification in FC 25. In EA FC 24, players had to earn Champions Qualification Points to qualify for the UT Champs playoffs.
These could only be obtained by winning Division Rivals matches. Players needed 1,250 qualification points to be eligible.
Finals qualification
After earning enough qualification points, players must then win three out of the five Play-Offs qualifying matches to earn a chance at competing in the Weekend League Finals. It’s worth noting that in FC 24, players only needed to win four out of 10 games.
