However, just as the first lot of Headliners hit packs, fans have labeled these types of cards as \u201cpointless.\u201d FIFA Ultimate Team has always prided itself on the way it ties into real-life football, and FIFA 22 continues that trend. From the regular Team of the Week to big promotions like Ones to Watch, EA SPORTS loves to reward those who are performing well for their clubs with big upgrades. In the past, this has taken moderately-rated SBC fodder and turned them into FUT Champs-dominating titans. It also makes the game feel like an extension of the real sport, rather than a simple imitation. However, after the announcement of the Headliners promotion, FIFA 22 players have slammed EA\u2019s approach to performance-based cards this time around. They feel the developers have missed a trick, and they are becoming irrelevant. Headliners are special cards that stay one rating above a player\u2019s highest-rated in-form, and can also be upgraded if their team wins four games in a row. But this wasn\u2019t enough to win over the FUT community. Reddit user DynamyttKidd believed that performance-based promos are \u201cdead,\u201d and the upgraders are \u201cpointless\u201d when you consider how many special cards release in a season. \u201cBy the time they win 4 games we\u2019ll have probably another 2 promos with juiced players, making them all irrelevant,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FIFA 22 players slam \u201cpointless\u201d performance cards after Headliners announcement EA SPORTSPerformance-based cards have become a staple of the FIFA series, and FIFA 22 continued the tradition with the likes of Ones to Watch and Player of the Months.
