What happens when FIFA Mobile season resets

When a new FIFA Mobile season kicks off every year, your entire game basically starts over from scratch. As a veteran player, I‘ve learned to expect the major resets that completely shake up the metagame when building the Ultimate Team I‘ve worked so hard for.

Here is the full rundown of key events and impacts you can expect from the famous FIFA Mobile refresh that diehard football gamers either love or love to hate:

Say goodbye to your club & legacy team

The most heartbreaking part of the reset is saying farewell to the club and players you‘ve carefully built up over months of grinding Solo Challenges, Head to Head battles, and tedious Transfer Market sniping.

All players in your club – including Prime Icons, fan favorite Signature Signings, and any gems you skillfully trained to 100+ OVR – are wiped. Your Legacy Team and all record of it disappears as seasons change over.

However, you do get to keep unused FIFA Points, "Now and Later" rewards, and some cosmetics to give your new club a headstart.

Not even Prime Icon Gullit or UTOTY Ronaldo can escape the season rollover purge. As a fellow long-time player ranted on Reddit:

"After spending months getting my squad OVR up to 134, now I‘m back to squeezing out 1-0 wins against teams I would have smashed 8-0 last week. Pain."

The only consolation is your Legacy Team lives on via screenshots for posterity.

The market gets flipped upside down

When fresh content drops with the new FIFA Mobile season, the player market and economy essentially resets.

The auction house clears out all existing card listings and prices start balancing from a clean slate based on updated player ratings and current meta trends.

Early birds can capitalize on undervalued meta cards before the masses catch on and inflate prices. I still regret missing out on the 89 OVR Haaland snipes going for under 500k during the first weeks of FIFA Mobile 23!

The chaotic rush of transfers also makes it profitable to flip high-demand cards you pack or win via Bidding wars during lightning rounds. Buying low then selling just a bit higher can bank easy coins.

According to analytics from FIFAMobileGuide.com, the volume of live Transfer Listings as everyone rebuilds their squads causes extreme price volatility early in new seasons:

Of course, you‘ll still need to abide by EA‘s rules against illegally buying Coins from shady third-party sites. As helpful tips from EA Answers explain:

"Earn FUT Coins within Ultimate Team through matches or the Transfer Market only, buying Coins can get your account banned!"

With the market influx, just farm gameplay objectives, snipe judiciously, and lean into early investments until inflation settles.

Fresh content & new gameplay keep it exciting

As a gaming industry expert and avid FIFA Mobile footballer myself, the frustrations of losing months of hard-earned progress are counterbalanced by the fun of rebuilding and mastering new strategies each year.

EA promises new events, programs, stadium atmosphere, skill moves, player chemistry systems, and more surprises to mix up the metagame and breathe new life into every season launch.

We are only just uncovering enhancements for FIFA Mobile 23 like Position Training, Club Customization, and Quality Squad Building Challenges that already have me theory-crafting tactics on how to dominate PVP with my Next Gen club.

The only constant is the core 5-10 minute matches that make building the best Ultimate Team so addicting. Match length varies based on game mode:

  • 1 min 30 sec for VS Attack
  • 5 mins for Head to Head
  • Up to 10 mins for Solo Challenges

No matter how bitter the season rollover pill is to swallow, the promise of new toys to play with often makes me excited for shaking up the old meta.

Team crafting knowledge still transfers over

Losing months of hard work hurts, but veterans like myself have accumulated deep game knowledge around squad building, chemistry tactics, and auction house economics that retains relevance season after season.

Key example: I‘ve learned that relentlessly training up Skill Boosts – assigning them to maximize OVR across all starting 11 positions – is essential for keeping pace in competitive matches and events.

Higher individual attributes like 140+ Shot Power and 140+ Finishing are also vital for clinical strikers that put away goals more consistently, especially on manual controls.

No matter how EA shuffles the deck, proven scientific principles around nurturing a balanced, chemistry-boosted squad with technical offensive threats seem here to stay.

The composure from experience helps weather the chaos of fresh resets rolling around each year.

While the dedicated FIFA Mobile community remains divided on whether annual wipes excite or infuriate, hopefully this inside look clarifies exactly what you can expect. Ultimately for me, the thrill of strategizing and rebuilding towards glory never gets old!

Let me know if you have any other FIFA questions. Us football fanatics need to stick together and share our pain during turbulent season changeovers!
