Mini seasons just never really took off, it could have been the most fun offline mode but it needs significantly more things going on. Modes like this (squad battles) work in EA games because there is also a weekly reward based on how much you play and what percentile you land in.
The top 1% 10% 30% 50% sort of thing all get rewards. Conquest, Mini-seasons, and Showdowns should ALL have this implemented years ago. There is no reason SDS can’t give a 10 pack and a BIAH for the players who conquer more strongholds than 90% of other players this week. Same with Mini Seasons and Showdown.
It’s more and more obvious people really don’t understand EAs reward structure and have never played Ultimate Team, the amount of packs and coins you get is basically the shark map you wait for every year on a weekly basis lmao.
