FUT Champs Rewards in FC 26 (Complete List)

The weekend is coming. For any serious Ultimate Team player, that means one thing: the grind and glory of the weekend league in FC 26. It’s the ultimate test for your squad and the single best way to earn game-changing rewards that can transform your club overnight. But this year, things are different. The competitive weekend has evolved, and it's no longer a one-size-fits-all competition.

In this complete guide, we're breaking down everything you need to know about the new competitive structure. We'll cover how to qualify for the weekend's action and provide a full, detailed list of the FUT champs rewards for both the elite Champions finals and the brand new FC 26 challengers mode.

How to Qualify for the FC 26 Weekend League

The good news for anyone who hated the old system is that qualifying for FUT champions FC 26 is now more straightforward than ever. EA has removed the stressful Play-Off stage, meaning fewer games and a more direct path to the main event.

The Two Simple Requirements

To get your ticket to the weekend's action, you just need to do two things:

1. Climb to Division 6 in Rivals: First things first, you need to prove you're ready. The entry gate to the weekend league is reaching at least Division 6 in the FUT Rivals mode.

1. Rack Up 1,000 Champions Points: As you play Rivals matches, you'll earn Champions Qualification Points for every win, draw, or even loss. By the time you reach Division 6, you should have plenty of points saved up.

Once you've met both criteria, you can cash in your 1,000 points to redeem your qualification for the Finals. The removal of the Play-Offs means there are fewer games to grind during the week, but it also means we lose out on those small Play-Off reward packs.

Champions vs. Challengers

The biggest change to the weekend league in FC 26 is the introduction of a new two-tiered system. This is a massive win for the community, as it provides a competitive environment for players at all skill levels.

FUT Champions FC 26: The Elite Battleground

This is the big one, the main event that all the pros and hardcore players grind for. If you're in Division 6 or higher in Rivals, this is your arena. It's a 15-game against some of the best players in the world, where every win pushes you towards the most insane FUT champs rewards in the game. The pressure is high, but the potential payoff is enormous.

FC 26 Challengers: A New Way to Compete

This is one of the most exciting and player-friendly FC 26 new features. The FC 26 Challengers mode is a completely new take on the weekend league, designed for players in Division 7 and below.

Forget the stressful 15-game grind of a ranked league. Challengers is a more relaxed, objective-based mode where you play up to 5 games over the weekend. Your goal isn't to climb a ladder, but to hit specific win milestones. Each milestone you reach unlocks a new reward. It's all about hitting personal targets, not just your final rank.

This makes it a much lower-stress environment. You can play a few games, get some solid rewards for your EA FC squad, and you're done. It's the perfect weekend mode for players who don't have the time or desire to grind through 15 sweaty Champions matches, but still want to earn meaningful rewards.

The Complete Rewards List

And now for the most important part: what can you actually win? How many coins can you get? Here is a full breakdown of the rewards available in both competitions.

FC 26 Challengers Rewards (Current Event Objectives)

It's important to remember that the rewards for FC 26 challengers are tied to specific objectives that will likely change with each new season or event. This keeps the mode fresh and exciting.

Below are the objectives and rewards for the current "Launch Weekend" event.

1. Objective: Win 1 Match
   1. Reward: 1x 75+ x5 Rare Gold Players Pack (Untradeable) & 1x 1 of 2 75+ Player Pick
2. Objective: Win 2 Matches
   1. Reward: 1x 1 of 2 75+ Player Pick

5. Objective: Win 5 Matches

As you can see, you start earning rewards from your very first win, and they stack up as you go. Even winning just a couple of games will give you some nice player picks to help upgrade your team and get new FC players.

Rewards Change During Promos!

Now, a crucial tip that separates the veterans from the beginners. The FUT champs rewards list you see above is for a standard weekend. During big promotions, EA often "juices" the rewards to make them even more enticing.

For instance, during the Team of the Season (TOTS) promo in past years, the standard red TOTW player picks were replaced with red TOTS player picks. This makes the rewards infinitely more valuable and gives you a real chance of packing one of the best cards in the game. 

Always keep an eye on the in-game menus and official announcements during big events like FUT Birthday or TOTS to see how the FUT champs rewards have been boosted. Playing on these weekends is how you pack those game-changing FC players.

Conclusion

So there you have it. The new two-tiered system for the weekend league in FC 26 gives everyone a chance to compete and earn big. Whether you're battling it out in the elite FUT champions FC 26 or making a name for yourself in FC 26 challengers, the weekend is your best opportunity to test your EA FC squad and earn game-changing rewards that can transform your club. Good luck with your games, and may your packs be legendary!
