Community Voting Now Live For Premier League TOTS
EA has confirmed that Team of the Season voting is now live, starting with the Premier League. Players can head to the official voting page, pick their preferred formation, and then select their favorite players to fill those positions.
The voting process is what will define the final TOTS lineup. Fans choose their favorite players based on personal preference or real-life performances. The most popular picks end up in the final TOTS lineup, and those cards get boosted.
Each selected player receives major stat boosts, making them some of the most sought-after cards in Ultimate Team. For competitive players, this is very important to form meta squads.
What makes this year interesting is how much emphasis EA is placing on community input. With voting already active and more leagues on the way, players have multiple chances to shape the final squads.
At the end of the day, TOTS is not just about celebrating football’s best. It is also about giving fans a voice. So if you have strong opinions about who deserves a spot, now is the time to make them count.
Voting for the Premier League started today, marking the start of the TOTS buildup. Other leagues are expected to follow in the coming weeks, with staggered voting phases leading up to the full release.
