FC 24 CHAMPIONS
FC 24 Champions is an online competitive game mode where players try to reach the Finals and the highest rank possible.
Champions Explained
Champions is an online game mode that brings you the best head-to-head competition in the Ultimate Team. The most popular mode tests your skill across two stages of competition: the Play-Offs and the Finals.
The Champions
There is a limited number of Play-Off entries per Season. This limit resets with the start of each new season, which usually occurs every six weeks.
The qualification for the Champions
The Finals are the second stage of Champions. Each campaign is open for 72 hours, from Friday to Monday, and you can play up to twenty matches against other qualified players.
As in the Play-Offs, you get four points for each win and one for each loss. The more points you get, the highest you will rank (there are ten ranks), and the better your rewards.
Based on how many points you make on your Play-Offs and Finals, you receive rewards at the end of your campaign. The rewards can be packs, coins, and eventually Champions Player Picks.

One of the goals of introducing the Play-Offs and Finals was to rebalance the rewards across both competition stages while lowering the overall match requirements.
You’ll get rewards once you finish the available amount of matches (maximum of 9) in the competition. You can also choose to end your current Play-Offs event at any point, even before completing all your matches, allowing you to collect the available rewards immediately. If you don’t finish all your Play-Off matches before a UT Season ends, you’ll automatically get whatever rewards you have earned from the matches that you did complete.

Play-Off and Finals Champions Rewards are based on your total points in each stage of the competition: +4 for each win; +1 for each loss.
In the Play-Offs, the rewards are delivered as soon as you finish your campaign. You can also decide to skip ahead of your last matches in case you have already earned enough points to qualify for the Finals. In that case, you will discard the chance to reach better rewards.
In the Finals, where you finish will decide your additional rewards. You can claim your rewards if you finish all your matches in the Finals. If you still have matches to be played, your rewards will be granted at the end of the competition (Monday morning), based on where you finished.

Matchmaking in FC 24 Champions Play-Offs and Finals is based on two things:
The second key piece to matchmaking is location. Players are matched based on location and proximity to EA’s dedicated game servers to ensure quality matches.
- Your location.
It determines which dedicated FC Game Data Center location will be used for your match. - Your current Form in Play-Offs or Finals.
It means you’ll be matched with players with a similar Form. Form does not carry over between the two competitions. Your Form is 0 whenever you are first starting a Play-Offs or Finals.
The second key piece to matchmaking is location. Players are matched based on location and proximity to EA’s dedicated game servers to ensure quality matches.
Your Form in Champions Play-Offs and Finals (respectively) is a record of all the matches you have played in the current competition. You start every competition with your Form at 0, which changes based on your results.
Here’s an example. Say the results of your first five games of a Play-Offs run were W/L/L/W/W. Your Form after those five matches would end up at +1. That’s because you gain +1 for each win and lose -1 for each.
Before your first match, your Form is at 0. You won the first match, so you earn 1. Form now at +1. You lost the second match, so you lose 1. Form now at 0. You lost the third match, so you lose another 1. Form now at -1. You win the fourth match, so you earn 1. Form now at 0 again. You win the fifth match, so you earn 1 more. Form now at +1 again. That means going into your sixth match; your current Form would be +1.
In Champions Play-Offs, your Form can be as low as -8 and as high as +8. In Champions Finals, your Form can be as low as -15 and as high as +15.
