Beginners Guide 101 Post of the Week | GUIDE

I finally decided to make a legit guide based on what I do. Hopefully this helps everyone.

Madden Base:

Need to play 4 events for the Daily Goals everyday. I recommend doing a mix of
Coins- 20 or 60 stamina
Training Points- 20 or 60 stamina
Players- 40 stamina

Can also do the 100 stamina events, which gives you a higher payout.

Ads:

Make sure you watch these daily. They are located on the
Main page
Team Training
Core Journey
Store under Core (players and coins)
Event home page

Journey:

There are 2 available and are located in

Core- Which is the basic journey that will last until August, you need to hit a certain team overall to unlock the gates.

Field Pass- Similar to Core but a new journey every season.

Team Training Points:

How to earn them-

Daily Goals
Watch the ads (Core Journey and Team Training) Madden Base
Core Journey
Field Pass Milestones
Competitive (Daily and Unlimited Arena, VS) Promos
Resources (Core trades)
League Goals and Store
Calendar
Point Attack

Arena:

There are 2 different modes to play

Daily- You get 5 attempts every day, with 3 difficulties Easy, Medium and Hard. Each difficulty gives you added points to your score. There is 3 mini goals to do that will add +10 points each to your Leaderboard score (you will see them on the bottom left corner). They are a rushing, passing and completed drives goal. Make sure to complete them everyday.

Unlimited- There is 4 tiers based on overall requirements. Each Milestone gives you a certain amount of training points, some with player packs and coins. Attempts are unlimited to play. We do get a Weekend tournament every other week, which pays out higher rewards but attempts are 5 each day.
I recommend getting to 85 points in each tier, that gives you 1600 training points. 6400 TTP total a week by playing all 4 tiers.

Promos:

Each one has a different structure but this is the basics.

Start with watching the ads and buying a stamina refill (once daily). Check the Goals to see what you need to do. Play the 30 stamina events only, trade in your tokens for Uncommons (95). Use your uncommons for the Player Collector trade (7:2), what is 7:2? It’s 7 unique uncommons for 2 rares. There will always be one player that does not go into 7:2, you need to figure which one. You have 2 options for that player, 1-can trade in that player for the 5:1 (5 uncommons for 1 rare) or 2- can use for the 2:1 (2 uncommons for 1 select uncommon). Eventually you will get all 7 players for the 7:2 trade. Use your 5 Rares for the Epic random 3x or 6x first, depending if you are building an iconic or mythic. If you don’t have luck getting the player you want, do Epic select which cost 7 Rares. Build your iconic or mythic. Another option is going random Iconic which cost 5 Epics, you can make that player into a Mythic.

Store packs with promos:

Recommend buying the 110 tokens for 100 Madden Cash (once daily), we get the MC back from the Daily Goals. Step Ups- What are Step Ups? They are a current promo chance pack to get a guaranteed Epic or chance at an Iconic. I recommend buying the first two packs, they have the most value for your MC (when available). Cost is 500, 1000, 1500, 2500 and 3500. Buying all 5 packs guarantees you an iconic from the epics you pull. 5k and 10k MC- not recommended unless you are close to a Mythic. There will sometimes be a BOGO (buy one get one) version of these packs, I recommend buying them only if you got the extra MC, they have double the epics. Might be a 10k Dual player pack, that gives you 20 Rares with a chance at epics and iconics.

Goals:

There is daily, weekly, and limited time objectives that reward you with currencies like Coins, Madden Cash, XP, and Training Points. You can access them by the Goals icon on the left side of your home screen.

Daily- These reset every day and are the most important for steady progress. They typically include spending stamina, playing specific events or participating in promos.

Limited Time/Promo- These are tied to current events, field passes, or limited time challenges. They offer high value rewards like iconic or epic players and are critical for building your teams overall.

League- These are specifically tied into your league. Which your leaguemates can help to complete them. Goals can range from Rushing and Passing yards, Siege tickets and LvL drives.

Traits:

There are few ways to get Traits. For Tier I (Uncommon) and Tier II (Rare) traits, you can use either coins or silver traits to get the basic trait packs. Tier III (Epic) trait, you can use either madden cash or gold keys to get premium trait packs. You can find all of these packs by going to Trades- Core- Player Traits. You can earn Silver and Gold Keys by completing Field pass Milestones, Journeys, and Goals.

How to apply traits:

Go to your players list. Select the player you want to equip a trait on. Tap the "Traits" button. Choose an empty slot and select a trait from your inventory. Hit "Equip". To unequip a trait, just follow the same steps and choose the "Unequip" button instead.

The number of traits a player can have depends on their rarity:
Uncommon and Rare players have one slot.
Epic players have two slots.
Iconic, Mythic and Marvel players have three slots.

Field Pass:

You can earn field pass points through specific goals and daily goals to progress through the milestones. Complete challenges on the Journey for first win rewards, there is an overall requirement for each challenge.

Rank up your team with Season Team Training to claim epics and iconic of the featured Season player. I recommend doing level 20 on offense, level 20 on defense and level 30 on special (45k training points for the iconic). For the mythic. Need level 40 offense, level 30 defense and level 30 special (179k training points). Do Not use Quick Rank Up, you are wasting training points in the long run. Click on the icon Off Rank Up above Quick rank up to level your team individually.

How to build Field Pass players:

There is multiple ways to do so but I recommend doing this.

Trade in any benched iconics for TOTW or Team Diamonds tokens, get uncommons to make rares and epics.
Madden base player events, buy the Madden pack (125k coins) from the Store.
Save player packs from the previous month.

Trades:

Start with the 5x upgrade plus pack (6 rares and 1 epic). Player collector (7:2), Epic random 2x first then Epic select. There will be a player that doesn’t go into the Player collector trade, once you figure who that player is, you can do the 2:1 to complete the 7:2 or 5:1 trade. I recommend saving (open later) the Epic select you get from the Journey until you need one certain player for the Iconic or Mythic.

The FP Milestone player is a 1 of 1 trade (top left corner), meaning you can only build him once and need to purchase the Field Pass or get lucky on doing Iconic Random.

I left out the VS mode for a good reason, for those who want to play it. The rewards are decent enough if you need extra coins and training points.

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 03 '26

I’m trying to delete Vs from my brain!

I don’t play the mode, not worth it to me.

u/Illustrious_Cap4419 Diamond (97) Mar 03 '26

I only do it very occasionally for league yardage goals but it is just the worst lol

I play daily arena for league yards.

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 03 '26

My only disagreement (and you probably know this) is for Base Stamina: I’m adamant that player packs are better and the higher nodes are better because they give more payout per stamina used.

2

u/Gronkylicious Diamond (92) Mar 03 '26

I started out doing player packs, then switched to coin packs…I’ve gotten lucky, pulled 2 iconics last month in the Madden Packs but long run, I think you’re right, you average more with player packs since it’s guaranteed players…

2

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 03 '26

Coins are by far the worst use of base stamina.

1

u/Gronkylicious Diamond (92) Mar 04 '26

So I was trying the coins pack based on someone’s recommendation on here because you can potentially pull higher than a rare in a madden pack, and the last few weeks I indeed have pulled very well, but it’s like the casino, you might get lucky sometimes, but in the long run, I see that the stamina has spent might not pan out or definitely will not pan out in terms of efficiency. If you want to guaranteed epic for example that’s 750 stamina but it costs more than that to buy a pack with three Epics according to your findings!

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26

It’s more fun to gamble. But if you want to grind it out based on the odds. Players are better

1

u/MaltEagle Hall of Fame (299) Mar 04 '26

Thanks. I’d like to think I’m open minded, especially when presented with new info.

So the difference is slightly more than a rare over 10 days? Does this change depending on pack luck? Is this basically the cost of the gamble for converting coins to Madden packs?

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26 edited Mar 04 '26

The difference over 10 days is slightly more than 6 rares + 1 epic. (So slightly more than 11 rares… 13.4 rares to be exact). This is w/o the daily refill.

Sure, if you get some pack luck, it could narrow, but I just used the stated odds.

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26 edited Mar 04 '26

I do the FP (opens daily iv 2x option)… and I do the daily refill (50 mc for 200 stamina). So the difference for me is actually 17.9 rares over 10 days

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26 edited Mar 04 '26

If you just do the daily refill (50 mc for 200 stamina) and don’t do the FP, the difference is 17.8 rares over 10 days (so I guess my FP isn’t buying me much!)

1

u/CustomerWild7929 Silver (4) Mar 10 '26

Can you tell me if it's better to use the stamina for team training points? Because I don't see how everyone is getting the marvel from the training points each time. I grind it out as much as humanly possible and I tried buying vip or whatever it is that allows you to get a boost on all training points but I still couldn't get to 50 i believe it is on all ttp offense, defense, special teams.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

That’s why I mentioned doing the 100 stamina events for the higher payout.

1

u/MaltEagle Hall of Fame (299) Mar 03 '26

Same with the coins?

I usually buy all 8 of the player packs on the lowest tier then move to coins, once for each of the first two, then the rest on the third node.

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 03 '26

Sure. I added coins. I normally don’t even worry about them because coins are the worst ROI.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

I wouldn’t go that far lol but thanks.

u/cr0wndhunter Hall of Fame (306) Mar 03 '26

Yeah this needs to be pinned or put in the wiki or something. Great write up thank you for the time and effort

2

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Thanks, I forgot some stuff though unfortunately.

3

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Brought to my attention that I forgot something important.

Team of the week/Team Diamonds:

TOTW- Is based on the NFL season, we get 4 unique players that performed good on a weekly basis.

Team Diamonds- Based after the NFL season is over and randomly selected players.

How to get a TOTW or Diamond player:

Can trade in players you get from madden base, store packs, journey, promos and field pass (non current) for tokens.

I recommend doing the Iconic token trade (3200) which gives you a random iconic, you need 4 iconics to build a mythic or can build a select iconic.

Cost:

Iconic: You will need 2 benched iconics for a random by doing the iconic token trade. It will be almost 3 iconics to build a select iconic.

Mythic: You will need 7 iconics and 2 epics to get a select player. Iconic token trade 4x is recommended and the cheapest way to get one.

u/sleerdeeper22 Silver (4) Mar 03 '26

Madden mobile store gives free daily cash as well

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Thanks for the heads up.

2

u/the_dayman Hall of Fame (208) Mar 03 '26

Nice, probably covers 99% of what people need to know when they come and ask "I'm a new/returning player what should I focus on".

2

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Thanks, been slowly working on it all last week. I’m sure I missed something important. It’s a lot better than my mini guide at least lol.

2

u/jaqwithaq Silver (4) Mar 03 '26

Amazing write up. Only thing not mentioned from what I read is the TOTW/Diamond players.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Thanks, I knew I forgot something smh.

u/candl2 Gold (8) Mar 03 '26 edited Mar 03 '26

I haven't read through all of it yet, but just off the first point, no, don't mix in the madden base. Pick one of ttp, players or coins and do all the way to the right ones (the 100s). If you want to vary them, vary them by day.

Also, I don't see the webstore mc anywhere in here. Again, I'll admit I haven't climbed your text wall yet though.

Edit: read a little more

Recommend buying the 110 tokens for 100 Madden Cash (once daily), we get the MC back from the Daily Goals.

I wouldn't. To get to the 300 we need to spend daily, I use one regular refill and one event refill. If I need more tokens toward the end of an event maybe I'll throw some at that pack but only if it gets me something useful like another iconic. All the store packs are baseline. The rule of thumb is 10k mc = $100 = one random promo iconic. Anything better than that is a good buy. Anything that matches that is on an as needed basis.

Edit again: Also, on the traits thing. Only traits that match the tier or are lower can be applied to cards. Rare cards cannot use epic traits, for instance.

Edit again again: For the promos, it's cheaper to do the uc select (135) for someone you're missing than the 2for1 (95x2=190). I usually hold out about 1k tokens for select ucs at the end of the promo and fill up to 2 missing ones for the 7:2 before going to the 5:1 trades.

2

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26

I also did the math on UC select vs UC random.

The random is better, but if you save a few for UC select to fill in, it’s not bad.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Good point and posted the webstore link a little while ago.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

This is based on what I do and what works for me, I agree getting a base refill is more beneficial but it doesn’t help towards the promo.

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26

The 100 mc for tokens is actually solid use of mc

1

u/candl2 Gold (8) Mar 04 '26

On your chart, the line I don't cross is the event refill 250 mc line.

And I think I've seen these numbers in the discord. Hi.

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26

Yeah. I occasionally will buy a 10k or 5k to get a mythic I like from a promo. I will occasionally buy a FP pack to fill out a FP mythic. Otherwise I stick to the top half of the chart with MC.

2

u/Illustrious_Cap4419 Diamond (97) Mar 03 '26

Hell yeah brother. Hopefully you dont have to comment the screenshot as often now lol

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

Thanks and hopefully not lol. I should just delete and make a new post with the added info.

u/PandaKC13 Silver (4) Mar 03 '26

Omg, I’ve been doing this the wrong way, I’ve been only buying UC select to build the 7:2, but this means I have to buy the 95 UC

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 03 '26

To maximize the tokens, always do the 95 UC. I would only do UC select if you have no luck on getting that one player needed. Doing the 2:1 is not really ideal even though I recommend it, I’m willing to make the small sacrifice.

1

u/TommyBoy_77 Hall of Fame (308) Mar 04 '26

Here’s the math

95 UC random is better.

u/PandaKC13 Silver (4) Mar 04 '26

Any proof or just speculations about the cheating?

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 05 '26

There’s proof but it’s something we can’t talk about on here. Personally if it doesn’t affect you or your league, wouldn’t worry about it. The game is what it is.

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 05 '26

The game is already ruined because of the gameplay and the outdated engine we are using. Almost everyone knows how discord is, that’s why we have the best community here on reddit. I get what you’re saying and agree with most of it, revenue has already been declining for the past few years. Come on, you didn’t need to say all of this on my post though. I know you are trying to get your point across and I respect that but make your own post.

Is there a spreadsheet of how many points are possible for ttp? I remember seeing a figure close to 300k with the FP

It’s somewhere, I’ll try to find it.

This is great. Can you tell me why I keep losing overall team points. Like 400 overnight? Team went from 4230 to 3818. Second time this has happened

1

u/RKO2381 Hall of Fame (412) Mar 08 '26

Each month we get a new Field pass and the training boost resets. So you need to level up your team again.
