FIFA Mobile 23 Founders Event Description

FIFA Mobile 23 Founders Event Flow
Be a Founder
This is the first thing you are gonna do when you log in. The most important aspect of the Founders event is to become a Founder. This signifies your presence in the final event of the FIFA Mobile as a Founder. Becoming a Founder reserves the spot to receive special Players, customization items such as User Logos, and unlock access to the special Founders Premium Star Pass on FC Mobile when it launches.
Tapping the highlighted BE A FOUNDER button rewards you with a Free Founders Pack consisting of a Founders User Logo and a Founders Token and unlock access to the special Founders Premium Star Pass on FC Mobile when it launches. Besides enrolling as a Founder rewards you with the following milestone awards as well in the current season:
- 5 million Founders: 108-113 OVR Founders Player
- 10 million Founders: 1250 Gems
- 20 million Founders: 1000 Skill Boosts
- 30 million Founders: Founder Hype! Emote
- 40 million Founders: 200 Scouting Points
- 50 million Founders: 114 OVR Founders Pioneer Player ST Youssoufa Moukoko
The 114 OVR ST Moukoko that you receive this season will be a Pioneer Player. Therefore you will receive a much lower OVR version of that player as a Now and Later reward in the next season of EA Sports FC Mobile.
Club Building
This is the actual main tab of the event. In the Main Tab, you will play a series of two Skill Games and two Match Daily to earn Coins and Scouting Points every day. There’s a Weekly Bonus Skill Game and Match that rewards with additional Scouting Points and Coins and unlocks during the weekend. Start off by playing daily Skill Games and Matches to earn Scouting Points.
Every week, there will be an additional Skill Game and Match available. There is a daily Ad that you can watch three times each day for extra Scouting Points. Scouting Points is the main currency that is used in the event.
With the Scouting Points, you need to decide whether you want to gamble at 50 Scouting Points per player or go for guaranteed Players from the Reward Path in exchange for 2000-3000 Scouting Points. Scouting Points are used on the Reward Path to claim Founders Players or use them in the special Exchange.
There are additional Daily Quests on completing which you can earn extra Scouting Points. There are exchanges as well for Pass Points and Retro Points towards extra Scouting Points. Therefore any leftover Retro Points you have from the previous events can be utilised here to earn Scouting Points. Furthermore, there are no Event-Specific Pass or Star Pass rewards that award Scouting Points in this event.
Milestone Matches
The next tab is Milestone Matches. In this tab, there is a set of 15 memorable matches that go in order. It goes all the way back to 2018. These are key matches in the history of football from both the Club and International Football. The matches include the Champions League finals, the recent World Cup, and some matches from the Euro 2020.
All the major matches from the last five years are there throughout with their respective dates when they were played. And when you take all these on you are going to play as the winning team, you do not have to use your current squad. You are going to want to complete all 15 of them as they reward you with 100 Scouting Points each and a Captain Armband that you will utilize in the next tab.
Relive memorable moments from different football seasons in Milestone Matches. Each week a new set of Matches unlocks. Completing a Match rewards you with a grand total of 30k Coins and 100 Scouting Points. Complete them all to earn the elusive Captain Armband!
Transition
This is the tab that showcases all the Pioneer Players. Similar to the Now and Later Players from the previous seasons, claiming a Pioneer Player rewards you with that player in the present season and a much lower OVR version of that Player probably as an Elite player in the next season.
Furthermore, trade in the hard-earned Captain Armband earned from the Milestone Matches tab in exchange for one of the three 116 OVR Pioneer Captains from ST Raúl, CM Gerrard, and RB Zanetti. It’s obvious you can claim any of these three, but what’s exciting is that you do get a carryover version as 88 OVR Icons in EA Sports FC Mobile.
Thus everyone who claims one of them moves on to the new season with an Icon in FC Mobile! Do remember that if you utilize the Pioneer Players as Training or in Exchanges, you won’t be able to receive the later version of them in the next season.
Therefore just claim and keep them in your inventory till the season ends. Additionally, you will be able to see the OVR of the player that you receive in the next season by tapping the New Season button post-September 1st.
Founder Exchanges
There are Exchanges in the event as well and it’s divided into two parts: Club Points and Players obtained from trading in Club Points. Club Points is the currency that you can obtain for exchanging your unwanted and spare 111+ OVR players from your inventory, both auctionable and unauctionable included. You can in return trade in those Club Points for 114+ OVR Founders Players, which may include some Pioneer Players as well depending on your luck!
Complete Exchanges using tradeable and untradeable Players to Earn Club Points. Use your Club Points to complete Exchanges and earn 114 OVR to 120 OVR Founders Players, which will also include some Pioneer Players. There’s also a special Exchange where you’ll be able to trade in a 117 OVR Retro Stars Star Player + Scouting Points for a 118-120 OVR Founders Player.

Running the Math for F2P Players
As per our calculations, the following sums up the chances for F2P Players.
Resource Management
| Scouting Points | |
| Be a Founder Milestone | 200 |

| Daily Ads | 693 |
| Daily Quests | 1155 |
| Weekly Quests | 500 |
| Milestone Matches | 1500 |
| Total | 5453 |
Since there are no Challenge Mode and event-specific Pass in the Founders event Scouting Points can’t be obtained from either of the above places. Therefore simply playing the event, one can easily accumulate a total of:
You can get at least a minimum of 5453 Scouting Points from playing the event
Additionally, players can also get Scouting Points by exchanging their leftover Retro Points from the previous event in the 6:1 Ratio. If you had played the Retro Stars event from start to finish, everyone would have at least 5000 Retro Points in surplus remaining which can roughly translate to a further 900 Scouting Points. Furthermore, adding to that is the Pass Points that players can achieve from the Star Pass.
A minimum of 6000 Scouting Points is obtainable for free from the event

You can take your pick from any of the above six combinations. However, we will suggest to only focus on playing the event for now. Play the Skill Games and Matches, focus on finishing the Quests and Milestones, and watch the Ads. Keep on hoarding your Scouting Points at least till the 1st of September.
As already specified on the Transition Tab, the future OVR i.e. the carried-over OVR of the Pioneer Players will be revealed on September 1, 2023. Although the lure of Pioneer Players is always more since you do get a version of them in the new season, a significantly lower OVR Elite will be of benefit to no one barring the first 1-2 weeks in the new season. Therefore look for the Player OVRs, look at the Pioneer Player cycle on the Transition Tab, and make your choice.
Founder Exchanges
The Exchanges are extremely important. Don’t miss out on them. The Founders Players that you redeem from the Exchanges can even result in Pioneer Players should you get lucky. There are at least 20-30 Pioneer Players in the event and in the end, it comes down to your luck and choices.
Do remember, you won’t be able to sell or use the Pioneer Players in exchanges if you are looking to get them in the new season. The unauctionable Founders Player on the other hand, you can use in exchange for additional Club Points should you consider them unwanted for your squad.
