MUT 20: Ultimate Kickoff Program and Signature Series
The Ultimate Kickoff Program made it's return to MUT today. The Program features some of the game's top players as Ultimate Kickoff Masters. Continue reading for an overview and to view all new player items released:
Ultimate Kickoff Masters
In order to acquire the following Ultimate Kickoff Masters, you must complete the corresponding player set that requires 120 Ultimate Kickoff Collectibles.
Ultimate Kickoff Collectibles can be earned through completing challenges or found in packs.
Seasonal Performers
A new element of the Ultimate Kickoff Program this year is the addition of Seasonal Performers. Each team is represented with 1 player item that is dynamic based on the number of wins their team earns throughout the NFL season. All of these items originally start at 83 OVR and all Seasonal Performers from teams that won in Week 1 will already be 84 OVR. Each win will add +1 OVR to these items with a max cap of 93 OVR (10 Team wins). Due to their dynamic nature, Seasonal Performers are not Power Up eligible. Get the players you want early because set requirements will increase each week (set details found in next section). Here are a few noteworthy Seasonal Performers:
For the full list of Seasonal Performers, click here.
Sets
- Ultimate Kickoff Masters- Add 120 Ultimate Kickoff Collectibles to the Master player's set to earn that player's item.
- Seasonal Performers- Since all teams are not created equal, Seasonal Performers will require between 15-50 Ultimate Kickoff Collectibles to complete and their set requirements will increase each week. For example, James White from the Patriots requires 50 UK Collectibles to complete while Reshad Jones of the Dolphins only requires 15 UK Collectibles. Be sure to get the Seasonal Performers you want early before the requirements increase each week!
- Team Quicksells- As with Seasonal Performers, Team Quicksells will also require Ultimate Kickoff Collectibles and have different requirements based on the perceived strength of that team. For example, the Bears currently require 29 UK Collectibles while the Bengals only require 12 UK Collectibles. Like Seasonal Performers, set requirements for Team Quicksells will also increase each week. Team Quicksells increase in Training value the more a chosen team wins this season and are not able to be quick sold until after the season. Training Point rewards vary between 600 TP for 0-2 wins and 50,000 TP for a perfect 16 wins.
Challenges
Each team has one Ultimate Kickoff Challenge for a grand total of 32 challenges. You can earn up to 5 stars and 750 coins for each UK Challenge. Through the milestones, you can unlock the following rewards at each tier:
1 Star: Ultimate Kickoff Collectible
8 Stars: Ultimate Kickoff Collectible
10 Stars: Team Captain Upgrade Token
From here, one Ultimate Kickoff Collectible is rewarded at each of the following amount of Stars: 15 , 22 , 29 , 36 , 43 , 50 , 57 , 64 , 71 , 77 , 84 , 90 , 96 , 128 , and 160 Stars.
Signature Series
In addition to the Ultimate Kickoff Program, the Signature Series Program has added 2 all-new player items in packs for a limited amount of time (48 hours). Check out the new items below:
If you're looking to pack Harrison or Kelce , you have until Saturday 9/14 at 10 am ET.
What are your thoughts on the Ultimate Kickoff Program? Will you be picking up your favorite team's Seasonal Performer?
Great--last year's Ultimate Kickoff; Cheeks--this entire day, including the UK promo.
So what gets me is the power up thing, I dont understand why they would have these Ultimate Kickoff players and you cant use them for the power up card, like Vander, makes no sense why I cant use that card to power him up more, I guess they may be fixing this issue but I dont know man, doesnt make sense to release a card that you cant use on the power ups
Because if the 83 card keeps getting +1 overalls because the team keeps winning, then the power up will have to keep getting updated. Once the season ends, and the overall is permanent, then you’ll probably be able to power them up
So i have to pay money to get a player that might get better? I'm still going to play but that's stupid.
I may be the only one who cares (Lions theme team) but, damn ea, MATTHEW STAFFORD is the best player on the Lions. (not Harrison,Golladay,Jones or even Slay) Week 1, 385 yards passing, 3 tds, 11 year veteran, 33 comeback victories, and he doesn't even have a core elite? Veteran, flashback, seasonal performer, anything. Maybe if he quits (I.e. Luck) he can get "tribute" card?
Crazy that Stafford has only a 77 card. I mean Trubisky has a higher launch card. Not even a lion's fan either but Stafford is habitually underrated in madden and IRL.
Very weak promo, but it was last year as well. Last year they also released UK player cards that did not factor into the powerups. They were so low OVR that nobody played with them even when they first came out. So this promo is just more of the same. I'd rather have them give us two more tokens for Theme King.
Ultimate Kickoff Celebration = Shutting Down most of MUT. First the beginning of the year last year, and now this?
How dumb does everyone feel that they acted and wrote these things about those cards now that we're over half way in the season and some of those cards are legit plus if you were smart and bought 20 whites like I did for 60-80k there worth 200k plus when they go to a 93 I'll have 20 guys that I can quick sell for 10k training not to mention the money I've made off the ramcyks. These card are super sick that ramcyk is the best rt in the game right now with room to grow still
Worst promo in MUT history. Most Beard was better.
Close, but Most Beard was pretty bad!!! lol
Horrible promo! That many tokens, for one player. Its just not fair for the average player!
any other sources of collectibles other then challenges?
Am I understanding this correctly? The challenges give 18 collectables, do you have to buy the rest of the collectables? Or will there be more challenges in the future to get more collectables?
Anyone able to use their captain token to upgrade to 91, yet?
They really need to fix the team captain upgrade, would have thought with how long servers were down today everything would have worked fine but of course not
Can’t use the captain token either ...
Mine ain’t working either but I seen someone with a 91 Shazier
Me neither
Wtf is up with the servers?! EA get your head out of your ass and fix this shit! How the fuck do you have to maintenance every fucking day plus “surprise “ unscheduled server interruptions! Someone needs to get fired over at EA
Are these cards supposed to be impressive?
No u r supposed to admire them, they worked hard to put food on the plate this time and it was from Olive garden.
Fuck Olive Garden. The bread sticks are legit tho...kinda.
Is everyone else having a lot of problems with dailies and servers?
So 4 91 ovr players and then a bunch of 84's? Zzzzzzz....
nevermind they increase with team wins throughout the season.. OK I guess..
A lil off topic but when do color rush uniforms come out?
Around Halloween
Cool thank w
*you
Not sure what I think about it yet. I spend minimal on packs, maybe 40 a year but spent the 500 points for the progressive player. Wish I would've looked at the sets first as I took Griffen and would've taken one worth more collectibles. Didn't last year they make weekly or daily challenges to earn more collectibles? If they do this promo could be salvageable if not I don't think I'll pursue much more than I got out of it. Wouldn't mind getting lucky on the random team quicksell for 12 tokens though! My luck I'd pull the dolphins lol
It a bad promo when it doesn't even track when you complete a game series.or count your stars. When is ea going to pull there heads out of the sand. It might as well be madden 19.
Is it just me or do those UK collectibles only add up to 17? How am I suppose to get 50?
