The World Club Update II
In the first TWC Announcement, we announced the free-2-play Rookie Tournament and teased two more tournaments for The World Club. This update is bigger than the first one. Advanced and Pro Tournaments, the highest rewards ever, new features, and even new items!
Make sure to also check out The World Club FAQ.
New Seasonal Challenges
In addition to the already announced Rookie Tournament, which is free-2-play, there will be two more tournaments only for the best managers and with the highest prize pools ever in The Football Club.
In total, we will reward $250,000 (paid in FUSD). But one after the other:
The rounds of the several tournaments are divided into several game rounds:
- Game round 1: Matchday 1
- Game round 2: Matchday 2
- Game round 3: Matchday 3
- Game round 4: Round of 16
- Game round 5: Quarterfinals
- Game round 6: Semifinal 1
- Game round 7: Semifinal 2
- Game round 8: TWC Final
Every member who qualifies for the next round will get an item airdropped, which will be required as an entry for the next stage.
Will you be able to sell or trade this item? Maybe at a certain stage of the tournament. Multiple entries for the same tournament are not allowed.
Advanced Tournament
This tournament will be the first tournament ever in TFC, where you will need to burn Jerseys to enter (disclaimer: whether in the Advanced or Pro Tournament, you can’t burn RTP charity jerseys to enter).
The Advanced Tournament’s total prize pool of $100,000 (paid in FUSD) will be the highest of all tournaments in TWC. This tournament was created for advanced users that are already experienced with the app and own some jerseys. To enter, the managers will have to burn several jerseys. Users can buy single jerseys straight at the TFC Marketplace or wait for Jersey Duffle Bag drops, which include Jerseys.
Entry restrictions:
To enter the Advanced Tournament, every user will have to burn
- 3 Uncommon jerseys or
- 2 Rare jerseys or
- 1 Super Rare jersey
No worries if you drop out of the tournament during the group stage! We will also implement an option for users to enter the tournament if they drop out in an early round. But a re-entry will become more expensive from game round to game round…
After the round of 16, no re-entry is possible anymore.
The best users of each round will qualify to compete in the next round until the grand final game week, in which a total of 100 users will compete for the highest prizes. The best 90% of round 1 will qualify for round 2.
The prize pool for the final game week:
The rest of the prize money will be awarded in previous rounds already.
Pro Tournament
This tournament was created for the most experienced managers who have already participated in a huge amount of challenges. To enter this tournament, the managers will need to burn the highest-valued jerseys in the game. Uncommon? Come on.
The reward prize money will be $100,000 (paid in FUSD). Combined with the low number of expected Pro players, the expected prize money is the highest in the tournament.
The prize money for the final stage in the Pro Tournament will include:
The rest of the prize money will be awarded in previous rounds already.
Same as in the Advanced tournament, users will be able to re-enter the tournament… but of course, if they burn more jerseys. The entry restrictions for the Pro Tournament are:
- 10 Super Rare Jersey or
- 4 Epic Jerseys or
- 1 Unique Jersey
The best 90% of round 1 will qualify for round 2. Re-Entry costs will be released during the World Club and will only be possible until the start of the round of 16.
As we said, the entry restrictions are only for Pros. So if you think you are one, you better start collecting.
Rookie Tournament
As you already know, this tournament was created for beginners and has no entry restriction. Any user can participate here and compete for a total prize pool of $50,000 (paid in FUSD). The only thing they need to do is to download the TFC app and line up their players for the first matchday:
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-football-club/id1571720739
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.agency04.tfc&hl=de&gl=US
The prize money for the TWC final in the Rookie Tournament will include:
The rest of the prize money will be awarded in previous rounds already.
The best 95% of round 1 will qualify for round 2. Same as for the Advanced and the Pro Tournament, also Rookies will have the chance to re-enter the tournament until the start of the round of 16. To re-enter, users will have to learn how to buy a jersey on the marketplace and burn it to re-enter:
Daily World Cup Challenges
And don’t forget the daily challenges! We will offer a lot of daily and matchday-related challenges in which users can win different rewards. Imagine watching the World Cup while checking your scores in The Football Club. 🤯
Most challenges will be free-2-play, and others will have different requirements to enter. For example, you will need a special item or level. In these challenges, special rewards will be awarded that are not included in the $250,000 prize pool for the three tournaments.
Burning Feature Overview
As described, we will introduce the burning feature during our World Club event. It will be used as an entry for users to qualify for specific tournaments.
But what happens with users who drop out of the tournament?
Before the start of the knockout stage, each user will have the chance to re-enter each tournament by burning jerseys. Of course, the burning costs for re-entering a tournament will rise from matchday to matchday. The Rookie Tournament will also require burning items if a manager wants to re-enter.
New World Club items
For the World Club Tournaments, we will add a completely new collection of items that allows users to boost any player in the tournament. In addition, you will be able to level your items to unlock more powerful bonuses for your lined-up players.
The items will boost different nations and positions. Four items in five different scarcities will exist for each of the 32 nations.
- Glove: Boosts only goalkeepers
- Helmet: Boosts only defenders
- Tracktop: Boosts only midfielders
- Shoe: Boosts only strikers
A user will need a certain amount of the same item to unlock the next stage and a higher boost for his items. You can see in the table how many items are needed:
So if a user wants to level up their Common German boot from Common to Uncommon, they need to burn 2 Common German boots. They won’t be able to burn a different item or the same item of a different nation to level their item.
If users want to level their German boot from uncommon to rare, they need 8 uncommon German shoes.
German shoes boost only German strikers, Brazilian shoes only Brazilian strikers, etc.
Higher scarcities will mean a higher in-game boost, of course. Here you can see a list of the boost for each scarcity.
But how can you get all those items?
Each user has the chance to purchase those items in the TFC app as well as to win them in challenges during The World Club. As those items are specially made for new users to understand the mechanism of different scarcities, burning, and leveling items, we match the prices for the bags with this expectation.
This section is outdated. Please check out our latest TWC Update.
