WHO WILL YOU BUILD: Start coming up with ideas for a 99 OVR player

Let's take a look at all of the rules for the Madden 22 Golden Ticket promo:

  • Golden Ticket players must be built off a base player item that has already been released in Madden Ultimate Team this year.
  • Golden Ticket players cannot be players that have retired from the NFL during the previous season (In other words, Legends are good; however, players who retired this year are not. E.g. Ben Roethlisberger).
  • Golden Ticket players cannot use Icons from the Superstar KO mode.
  • Golden Ticket players will get a team chemistry slot. Team chemistry will operate the same way it does for the Veterans program in that the team chemistries available will only be those that the player played for in the NFL in a regular season game.
  • Golden Ticket players will get a secondary position chemistry slot (if it applies to them).
  • Golden Ticket players will be stand alone player items and will not be eligible to go into Power Ups.
  • Winners get to choose which Tier 3 Buckets they want available on their Golden Ticket player. The only restriction is it must be from an archetype from that position. (E.g. Winner could choose for Michael Vick to have a Field General, Strong Arm, Improviser and Scrambler QB ability bucket).
  • Golden Ticket Players will receive a 5th ability bucket.
  • Winners can choose the archetype for all ability buckets.
  • Golden Ticket Players still need to hit the thresholds for abilities.
  • Physical ratings will be handled by the MUT Team but winners will be able to choose up to 5 skill ratings they want to see boosted. (Physical attributes like strength, speed, acceleration, agility, change of direction, jumping, throw power, injury, stamina cannot be chosen)
  • Golden Ticket Players will not be a Limited Time (LTD) item and will be in packs for the remainder of the year with an increased opportunity to pull them from packs the first 48 hours after their initial release in game.
  • Winners get to choose card art from any program released except card art from the Legend LTD and Ultimate Legend Career Edition programs.
  • Winners have 10 days from being contacted to finish designing their Golden Ticket player. If a winner is unable to finish designing their Golden Ticket player in this time period, they will forfeit this opportunity.
  • The Madden Ultimate Team reserves the right to refuse any Golden Player ticket selection.
  • 1 Golden Ticket Per Person
  • Winners can receive their Golden Ticket early before it releases in game
