Derwin James vs. the World Rewards Arrive in Madden 21 Ultimate Team
On February 9, the finale for Derwin James vs. the World took place with the Derwin Bowl. While that went down, Madden 21 Ultimate Team fans were able to finally exchange sets for a Derwin James Jr. 97 OVR Master item. In addition, gamers watching the Twitch stream who logged into MUT during specific hours received a free reward in the game.
Derwin James vs. the World rewards arrive in Madden 21
After weeks of the Derwin vs. the World series live streaming on the EA Madden Twitch, the Derwin Bowl took place. It featured Derwin taking on four different competitors starting with Heisman trophy winner DeVonta Smith of the Alabama Crimson Tide. Derwin had to stage a comeback but eventually defeated the future NFL player in a close one.
In addition to battling Smith, Derwin also took on country singer Lee Rice, YouTuber TD Barrett, and the recent Madden Club Champion JWall.
For Madden 21 gamers, a major reward also arrived in Ultimate Team. It’s a new 97 overall card for the Los Angeles Chargers strong safety. Amongst the attributes are 97 Acceleration, 96 Play Recognition, 96 Power Moves, 95 Speed, and a 95 Zone Coverage.
Here’s a look at the new card unveiled in MUT mode on Tuesday night:
A closer look at attributes on the card also arrived is shown below. The new Derwin 97 OVR features various X-Factor and Superstar abilities as well as Chemistry upgrades.
The new Derwin card arrives just a day after the game’s G.O.A.T. Tom Brady received a 99 OVR Super Bowl MVP card for leading Tampa Bay to the win this past Sunday.
Gamers also received a free card of any of the three 90 OVR player items from Derwin vs. the World. So gamers were able to choose Nick Chubb, Jalen Ramsey, or Keenan Allen if they happened to miss one over the course of the streams.
How to get the 97 OVR card in Ultimate Team
In order to get the card free of charge, viewers needed to have their EA Madden 21 Ultimate Team account linked up with Twitch. Gamers received a free Derwin vs. the World Crown token each week they watched the Derwin vs. the World live stream on Twitch. Those tokens were placed into exchange sets for 90 OVR cards of WR Keenan Allen, CB Jalen Ramsay, and HB Nick Chubb.
On Tuesday evening, those three 90 OVR player items could be exchanged for the 97 OVR Derwin James. It’s not a NAT card either, meaning quite a few of the Derwin cards hit the Auction House, so it provides another option. The lowest prices looked to be about 300,000 Coins on PlayStation 4 as of this writing.
