The best way to start earning coins quickly is to do the solo challenges; they are easy and do not take much time to complete. Take a look at your objectives and do the easiest ones. Keep doing the easy ones until the challenges become too time-consuming and just not worth the reward. Then, play the Longshot story mode to get decent free cards. Once you have a few thousand coins, try the Auction House.
The Auction House is perhaps the most important factor in quickly racking up MUT coins. You must learn how to take advantage of the Auction House and be working it whenever you are not playing. The Auction House follows trends -- so study the house and make notes on the players you require. Then, keep an eye on the market so whenever a player you need is going lower than usual, you can get him. If a player is going higher than usual and you have that player on your team, sell him for a good profit and use that money to buy another player or just wait for the player you sold to fall back to his average price before buying him again. Patience is key in the Auction House; do not undersell a player and do not overbuy one either. Players are like a commodity in the Auction House, and their entire point is to make your team better while making you money. Popular players usually sell for higher -- so use this fact to sell them and buy players which are low key but have the same skill. Later on, you can buy your favorite players when you have enough money. Opening packs is not worth it. If you want to efficiently farm MUT coins, avoid packs. If you grind the Auction House long enough, you will get all the players you need.
Try entering the Weekend Leagues to earn a lot of coins. To enter the Weekend Leagues, you must win one of the weekly knockout tournaments. In the Weekend League, you can play up to 25 games in the weekend and get a reward based on well you did. The top prizes are as large as 250,000 coins, while the last place also give 3,000 coins. Thus, if you get into the Weekend League, you will get a lot of coins.
