If you're looking to build a squad led by legendary leaders on the pitch, this event is packed with opportunities to snag high-OVR icons and exclusive rewards. We'll walk you through everything from the basics to advanced strategies, helping you maximize your progress whether you're a free-to-play grinder or splashing some points. Let's dive in and turn your team into a championship contender.
Event Overview
The Captains Event celebrates football's iconic skippers, offering a mix of grindable content and premium perks. You'll engage in skill challenges, matches, and quests centered around four key icons: Francesco Totti, Andrés Iniesta, Giorgio Chiellini, and Dunga. These icons can receive real-time OVR boosts based on their former clubs' performances, adding an exciting layer of unpredictability. The event emphasizes collecting special armbands and shards to unlock top-tier players, with paths for both casual and dedicated players. Duration:
Kicks off on August 21, 2025, and runs for 5 weeks, giving you plenty of time to grind but requiring consistent daily play for the best results. Key Currencies: To navigate this event, you'll rely on two main resources: Captains Tokens: Your everyday grind currency. Earn them through daily skill games, PvE matches, weekly quests and Division Rivals matches. Use them to unlock reward paths, buy armbands, or claim a live OVR icon.
Captains Shards: The premium grind item for high-end exchanges. Collect via quests, challenges and by exchanging unwanted players. Spend them in the Gallery for elite Captains cards. Daily earnings can hit around 470 Tokens from core activities, with shards coming from milestones and extra efforts. Event Chapters and Gameplay
The event is structured around a main hub with themed chapters unlocking weekly. Each focuses on one icon, blending skill games, matches, and tasks to build your collection. Main Chapter


This is your command center. Track the live OVR progress of Totti, Iniesta, Chiellini, and Dunga here. It also links to all other sections and highlights upcoming upgrades based on real-world matches. Icon-Specific Chapters


These roll out one per week, starting with Totti. Each includes:
Daily Activities: Three skill games and one PvE match, refreshing every day. Completing them nets Tokens and progresses toward armbands.



Key Matches: Six special challenges over the week. Finish all to earn the icon's unique Captain Armband and a themed User Logo. Weekly Quests: Tasks like scoring goals, making tackles, or earning shards. Rewards include gems, extra Tokens, special items (e.g., Mascherano cards), and Transfer Tokens.


Weekly Schedule: - Week 1: Totti Chapter – Focus on Roma's legendary No. 10. - Week 2: Iniesta Chapter – Barcelona's midfield maestro. - Week 3: Chiellini Chapter – Juventus' defensive rock. - Week 4: Dunga Chapter – Brazil's World Cup-winning captain.

Live OVR Upgrades What sets this event apart is the dynamic boosts for Totti, Iniesta, Chiellini, and Dunga. Upgrades tie to real-life club results over four weeks, like wins, goals, or specific achievements (e.g., Roma scoring in all matches for a Shooting boost on Totti). Monitor the Main Chapter tracker – OVR can climb by +1 or +2 per condition met. Strategy: Delay claiming your live icon until Week 4 to see full upgrades and pick the highest OVR.
