How can you get the most out of the upcoming ICON Swaps event?

Find out below.

What are ICON Swaps

ICON Swaps is a promo that allows you to complete objectives to earn tokens, which in turn can be traded in for rewards.

Some of the rewards come in the form of ICON players, as well as a variety of packs too.

The more tokens you earn, the better rewards you can trade for, it’s that simple.

How to Prepare

We have seen in previous years the requirement for ‘first time owners’ players in the objectives.

This means no acquiring of players from the transfer market, so best not to sell anyone just yet!

Keeping hold of a range of leagues and nationalities is your best bet of being able to achieve any objectives that require ‘first owned’ players.

These objectives will likely fall across Rivals, Squad Battles and the new FUT Friendlies too, so there will be something for everyone.

Predictions

There will be a limited number of tokens on offer, so you can’t just rack up all the ICONs available!

Instead, you will need to be selective as to which rewards you want to redeem.

The ICONs included are unlikely to be world beaters, so make sure you are choosing the players that are most likely to stay in your squad for the longest time.

That being said, there will be plenty of content to get stuck into over the next few weeks.

ICONs

Which players will be included in ICON Swaps Set 1?

This is the big question, and EA has offered some clues as to who they could be.
