How To Watch The Madden NFL 19 Club Championship
Get all the details you need to know about how and when to tune in to the biggest Madden NFL 19 tournament of the season.
The Madden 19 Club Championship is here and the tournament features the largest prize pool in competitive Madden history, $700,000, and will kick off on January 30. Each of the final four competitors in the Club Championship get an automatic seat in this season's upcoming Madden Bowl. But only one will take home the $100,000 grand prize.
The final 32 competitors advanced to win their respective NFL club series, first through online qualifiers, an online elimination round, and eventually they played in a local club live final to earn their seat. But don't expect to see real NFL rosters. This is a Madden Ultimate Team format where competitors get to draft their dream Madden 19 roster from a pool of MUT items with a salary cap.
The Club Championship is the second EA Major of the Madden 19 Madden Championship Series season. Michael “Skimbo” Skimbo already took home the Madden 19 Classic belt in December along with $25,000. But he was upset in the New England Patriots Club Series and failed to advance to the Club Championship finals, so he'll be making a special appearance behind the caster's desk for the Club Championship. Something tells us we'll see Skimbo competing again later this season.
Now that you're briefed on how this all works, here's a full breakdown of the tournament schedule for all four days of the Live Finals beginning on January 30.
