The Gridiron Guardians program, formerly known as MUT Heroes, is now live in Madden Ultimate Team 22, featuring 92 OVR Champions Aaron Rodgers, Jalen Ramsey, Fred Warner, and Christian McCaffrey. For those who didn't play during last year's MUT Heroes program, Gridiron Guardians' theme is basically, what if NFL players were comic-style Superheroes? It's meant to be a fun, light-hearted program and this year's version has a new wrinkle with the Super-Suit Strategy Item.
Begin your journey by completing the Prologue solo challenges to earn a Super-Suit Strategy Item that when equipped, will provide a +1 boost to every rating of all the Gridiron Guardian Players in your lineup! The Suit can be equipped in the program-specific 5th slot of your team lineup (see image below) and will lose its powers on 10/14 at 10 AM ET. Kraelo hinted this was a key date on GMM for some reason but did not elaborate on why.
TL;DR
- 4x 92 OVR Champions (Rodgers, Ramsey, Warner, and McCaffrey) have sets that reward the player's 92 OVR GG Champion, Power Up, and 3x NCAT 90 OVR GG Heroes
