FIFA 22 Player Has Reached The Elite Division By Playing With Just His Feet

FIFA 22 Player Has Reached The Elite Division By Playing With Just His Feet

What an inspiration.

FIFA 22 streamer James Toland, also known as Tolando, has reached the Elite Division of Ultimate Team by playing the game with just his feet.

The latest instalment of EA Sports' hit franchise launched at the start of the month and many players have started climbing the ranks.

None will be as impressive as James however, who plays the game with his feet due to the rare TAR syndrome.

TAR is a blood disorder which leads to those suffering from it being born with shorter arms than usual.

It hasn't stopped James from playing games and he shared a screenshot to Twitter on Friday evening celebrating his achievement.


This year's game isn't exactly an easy one to master either. Fair play James.

The Celtic fan shared a video to his channel last year explaining his situation and how he plays games.

James jams the control into his bed to press the trigger buttons and then uses the rest of the controller with his toes.

He told The Scottish Sun: "Football is my passion in life. I was no Pele or [Diego] Maradona on the football pitch at school, however I was really good at football computer games.

"I never used special controllers. I've only ever used the normal ones. Even back to the Sega Mega Drive days."

He continued: "I'm trying to make a living from it as I think it's a pretty unique selling point playing with my feet - in fact it's bizarre and completely crazy.

"A lot of people stream video games these days and make a comfortable living from it. I'm already getting a good following on my Twitch channel and doing YouTube live as well.

"If you get a big enough following then that's when you can build up a revenue stream."

Thankfully, the community appears to have taken to James on Twitch and YouTube.

James says: "I get the odd remark from people who will say they've been beaten again by a guy using his feet.

"Sometimes I get a bit cocky as I'll be playing then I'll take a drink of tea from a cup using my hands at the same time to wind up folk, but that's just when I'm playing against friends and family."
