 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. EA crashed the market on Christmas with a messed up, glitched out, 500,000 coin store pack. They took it away, they fixed it, they brought it back, and the market's kind of been weird now ever since that happened. A lot of prices are still low, but some things have started to go up. But it was a crazy last couple days in this game. I know we didn't get a video out on Christmas or yesterday to take a look at what happened with this best of being added to packs or the 500K pack in the store, but I wanna take a look at that today and how kind of the lack of content yesterday, not really a lack of content, but just not as crazy as it has been in the past couple of days. Of course, we did have a really, really great Tony Cruise SBC and 75 plus player picks being added, but a lot of the market is actually rising in the most meta, popular and hyped areas right now because people are going out and building teams around these great SBCs, and there's not a ton of coin drain content taking coins off the market in mass quantities like a gamble pack, but could one of those packs come today? I'm talking like an icon pack, a hero pack, or maybe it's just the World Cup campaign pick is re-upped. I think there's potential for that to be happening today. So we're gonna take a look at all of the market movements from Sunday on Christmas up until today on Tuesday and talk about what to expect today on this game because I have a couple ideas. So if you're excited for it, hit the thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Let's start by talking about the store pack, right? Because this is where all the madness started on Sunday, on Christmas, on the actual day of Christmas. EA did a nice, I guess, nice Christmas gift here, but you have to pay for it, right? 3,000 FIFA points or 500,000 coins, which 3,000 FIFA points for a 500K pack and all that is inside of here is technically good value. If you were somebody that opened this pack in the first like hour or hour and a half or so when it was still live in the game and tradable, I mean, technically that value is not too terrible. You may not have made your coins back, but just with all the special cards that are in packs, including the Winter Wild cards that are in packs right now, you had a really, really good opportunity to pack some special cards and that's why I think you saw the market impacted so much. But of course, I mean, EA wouldn't release these packs if they weren't being opened, right? I mean, you look how much the market was impacted on Sunday when this pack was released incorrectly. Of course, I'm sure you guys saw this tweet. The Winter pack was released with tradable items incorrectly. They pulled it away and then it was rereleased, I think like an hour or two later correctly, right? So EA had a mistake on Christmas and then somebody had to work on Christmas to fix it. You know, that's kind of crazy in the first place, but if you take a look at the market, I want to take a look at fodder first because fodder was actually smashed in price. Fodder was killed by the amount of supply. It was crazy, 24,000 coins for 88s. They were down at like 20K. The graphs doesn't even show it, but they were actually at 20K on Sunday when this totally dropped off. Yeah, from 24K down to 20, now most of them are back up to about 22 or 23, but fodder in general is still really, really low from where it was even on the weekend because of this supply that we had from this pack and the lack of demand from other, especially hybrid fodder, other SBCs are not requiring these cards. So they're staying pretty low in price, but of course, for the rest of the market, if you take a look at like winter wildcards, like look at Usman Denbele, I sold this guy for 900,000 coins on Saturday. On Sunday, he went from 712 all the way down to 639, back up to the high 600s. A lot of these cards, and of course, specifically, the cards that were released in the best of, which EA still has not given us, a true list of what cards are in this winter best of. We know a few cards, right? You can tell which ones have dropped in price a lot on the market, like Pulistic, Path to Glory. All these cards here that are showing on this little info screen, Chammeny wants to watch is another one that is in packs right now, but EA needs to give us a list. And I hope they do that today on Tuesday or maybe throughout this week because kind of the holidays are slowing down a bit or at least we're after the Christmas weekend. So maybe there's some more info they're gonna be putting out here soon. Hopefully, I don't remember a time where they've ever been able to get away with releasing like a best of team in packs and not releasing like a list of telling us what players are actually in packs. But this is the impact of these guys' prices a lot. Like on Sunday, I actually spent like 10 minutes on the app seeing the supplies. Like, all right, I'm gonna go snatch some cards up. So I bought Bandaiq at like 990, about two Rafael Leal's at 910, about an Erling Holland at 1.01. So we had some good, quick flips in there. Also, I've been checking my club. Guys, check your club for like any silver, bronze, gold, Sudamerica, Libertadores card. Like these guys are selling like hotcakes for the league SBCs. The menu grind is impeccable right now. We'll talk more about that again. So check your clubs for that. But the Sunday madness on the market was crazy. And it literally crashed like half of the market just because the panic of all that supply. And then, you know, people knowing that this pack was there, people probably were going out and selling cards to go open this 500K pack while it was tradable. Now, since it is untradable now and correctly so, is it worth it? Absolutely not. Like I don't think this pack is worth it. I don't think the Snowstorm pack is worth it, which evidently this one was tradable as well. I think I missed that earlier in the week or I saw it and kind of just glanced over it. It says all items untradable. I don't think EA ever tweeted about this pack. I don't know if they fixed this one either, but this one popped up as tradable earlier in the weekend. And then the season two review pack was also dropped yesterday on Monday in the store. Now, what's interesting about these packs is they all expire today. And I don't know what's gonna replace these today. Will EA just simply refresh these packs? Like that would be crazy. If EA is gonna go full send, really try to sell those FIFA points and refresh these today. That's why I think Tuesday has potential to be a pretty interesting day on the market today and on the game. Because if these packs get refreshed, that's more coin drain and more FIFA point drain, I guess you could say for people that are on the game because people do open these packs with coins 100%. It's very interesting that they're all expiring today on Tuesday. I also do think that you could see a refresh of an SBC that was very popularly released last week. It was very cheap. It was very good value. And if you remember last week, this SBC came after they put a gamble pack in the store. They put one of those review packs in the mid season review pack is what it was called. They put it in the store last week and then an hour later with delayed content, they dropped the World Cup campaign player pick. Now this SBC expires today. Could EA refresh some sort of player pick, maybe this exact one or some sort of other hero or icon player pick today? I really feel like there is potential that EA will do something. We didn't get anything yesterday regarding like any sort of gamble pack, right? I know that we're getting these daily player SBCs. We've had Payet and Cruz in the last two days. Both of these SBCs are big Ws in terms of value. I think that this Payet is insane, right? 4-4 with the Santa hat, of course, that makes it look even better, but such a nice card and just in terms of stats. And you see, again, we talked about this a couple of days ago. This is the biggest tip that I can give you for the market right now in this game. If you're trying to trade and make coins or maybe even invest a little bit, you have to go where the hype is with the Winter Wild Cards SBCs. And right now it is with Ligue 1 and it's with La Liga. You've had Tony Cruz as a midfielder and Rodrigo de Paul as a midfielder. It's moving a lot of La Liga cards, but then this Demetri Payet himself is moving a ton of Ligue 1 cards on the market. Of course, you look at the Gen-Duzzi card, right? That's a perfect example of a card that is up like crazy because of this. 140,000 coins for Gen-Duzzi after he was 73K right before Christmas weekend. So he has doubled in price in a mere weekend on this game. Now that's the best option, right? He has gone up the most. Now take a look at Ascendio, right? This guy was 160K. Now he's up to 200,000 coins after the release of the Tony Cruz SBC. So even though Tony Cruz is a little bit more expensive, I think it's a really big W. I'm very tempted to try to craft this SBC. I know it's 268K, but an 80-paste, five-star, five-star Tony Cruz, like that. That's just cool. That's just flat-out cool. And that's how all of our Winter Wild card SBCs have been thus far. And that's why I think honestly, you're seeing the market react pretty well to this. Of course, we did have the Panic on Sunday. And of course, some of your cards that are not from La Liga or not from League One have not fared as well. Maybe some of your Premier League cards, maybe some of your Bundesliga cards, Serie A just doing okay, stuff like that. Other cards have taken hits in price because of these new ones that have been coming out. But that's just kind of stuff that we knew was gonna happen, right? That happens every single year during Winter Wild cards. But even yesterday, with the market just being kind of slow in terms of nothing like super-duper crazy came out, since Sunday happened, and yesterday on Monday was a little bit of a slower day, you look at the rest of the market, like look at this Harry Kane team that turned the card. 150,000 coins, and a lot of the market, even yesterday on Monday, just started to rise up even further. We'll take a look at this Kane card yesterday. There's not a ton of hype for the Premier League right now in terms of cards that were released. He started yesterday on Monday at 136K, kind of rose to the high 140s and right now hitting 150,000 coins. You take a look at some of these other cards. Thiago Silva keeps rising, Teo Hernandez keeps rising, Daloh, Casamido, these guys just keep rising because they're the most recent promo team. There is hype, of course. These guys are pretty cheap, right? 150K, 100K. Again, this is the type of players that we talked about, Thiago Silva for sure. We talked about this a couple days ago as well with people getting on the game for the first time, getting the game, loading it up. These players that are around 100,000 coins and under are gonna be the ones that move the most because that is where people can afford cards that are getting on the game. And there's extra demand, right? And there's not as much supply because these guys are out of packs. It's all demand for these lower tier cards as people build squads as they get the game for Christmas and during this weekend and stuff like that. So really, the market's doing really well. And even though prices are down a lot from what they were on Friday or Saturday, look at you all, Felix, right? 730,000 coins-ish right now. Yesterday, he was 660. Canada started rising all day. And then, of course, after the content yesterday was just all right and some La Liga links being pushed, he goes from 700 back up to 752. But again, on Sunday, it was a completely different story, right? He was down at 660 because of that panic. After being 730, he shot down in price because of the supply and the panic of the big time 500K pack that was in the store. So yes, you've had a lot of prices fluctuate and these Winter Wildcards have been my favorite to trade with, especially earlier in the weekend. Conte, it's still pretty low. For a special Conte card, I know this FIFA, the prices are just really, really cheap and all that stuff, but like 800K for a Conte card that people are gonna use is the only special Conte for a long time, or a 99 physical De Bruyne at 1.1 mil. Like just look at this guy's graph every day. He was 1.09, went back up on Sunday, he was crazy low at 1.05, shot back up, of course, over 150K into the late night hours of 1.2. So these cards move a ton and they're just in such a high volume of demand. Now again, like I said though, if today's content changes things, and the past couple of weeks, Tuesdays and Wednesdays have kind of been, you see that peak in the early to midweek and then prices just sort of start to fall off again. We saw it with the team in tournament cards, we saw it with the foot feed-downs cards. So with these wild cards that have maybe bounced up in price a little bit, maybe it's just because of the links. Like Furlan Mendi was, I believe Furlan Mendi was almost 499,000 coins or he was somewhere right around like under 500K and he is up big, of course, because of the Tony Cruz SBC and the France links, of course, they're doing this promo as well. He's up big, but could some of that insane market rise or just some of the prices that have gone up change a little bit today? It's all around the SBCs, right? It's all around if they drop a gamble pack today, if they drop something that's gonna drain the market of some of the coins and some of the fodder and make people sell some cards that they maybe have bought or purchased to get into their team. Now, speaking of draining the club and draining coins, this 75 plus player pick only requiring six non-rares is a W in my opinion. Now make sure you're just turning in on tradeables. I know that all those in my club are untradeable that I turned in right there because tradeables are going for so much in and around the market right now. Make sure you're only turning in on tradeables to this unless you're going out and buying non-rares to try to complete these. I hear that these are pretty good with Windsor Wild Cards and packs. Well, we got an 84, that's not bad, but it's a one of three. It's a 75 plus, so it seems really low, but again, with the Windsor Wild Cards and the best of them packs, this is a great week to spend coins on upgrade packs. It really is. I know that it seems like, Nate, it's a crazy time right now with all these cards and packs and you're talking about the market being drained from all the stuff in the store and there's just a lot to pack right now and that also I think maybe hurts the market next couple days in this week because there's so much demand for these player picks. I mean, I get an 83 and 84 and back to back. That's not bad. And I think I've heard from a lot of people that these are pretty good. So another pack that we have refreshing today, just seeing this is the 85 times two. So that could be a part of the gamble, I guess, you could see today. I don't know what fodder this requires. This is an 84 squad or an 83 squad. This is an 84 squad with 186 or higher. Watch your 84s today, right? And I wanna talk about fodder a little bit more here because I think it's worth mentioning. The only fodder that is done good this week so far is the low tier, right? Your 83s are starting to go up a little bit. They're nearing 1,000 coins. Your 84s are up for sure. And if you take a look at the index 84, you can see it, right? Yesterday, it just kind of shot up like this and even on the daily graph, this might not be zoomed in enough but it was really low on Saturday, Sunday and then boom, it's been kind of going up in price with that low tier being demanded. I think that 85 double definitely has a play in that. And then the Tony Cruz that they dropped yesterday, a lot of people going out and doing that as well. So if you can get 84s, I know weekly rewards are paid out today on Tuesday. Could we see a bit of a market bump even after the weekly rewards delayed payout? Absolutely, right? That goes for the Winter Wild Cards. That goes for the most meta, La Liga and Ligun cards and just meta cards in general on the market right now. Could see a bit of a bump in price just with extra coins being put onto the game today. But especially for the low tier fodder, if that 85 double comes back, if the campaign player pick comes back, that is gonna mean there's gonna be more demand and these cards will probably rise up. Now, for the high tier on fodder, what's it gonna take for 88s to 91s to move, right? These guys look low, I get it. I mean, when was Neuer 41K the last time, right? We looked at this on stream last week. The last time Neuer was this cheap was the early part of November. Like before Black Friday when all the crazy SPCs got released, these guys have not been this low in a hot minute. So it's gonna take either a Jarzinio or a Maldini icon SPC. Those that were leaked, of course last week and we have not seen them yet, I think it's gonna take an SPC like that or some sort of icon upgrade or player pick or a hero upgrade or player pick to make the market move in those areas. And really, today, I do think you will see a nice little bit of a rise on the market. I think you will because you see those rewards time periods always people get rewards, they go out and they buy some cards for their team. Now, I'm gonna open these two packs really fast but I wanna talk about the daily SPC players as well because of course that's content that we expect to see every single day now. We have some leaks, is that in Maldredge or is that like Kovacic and somebody had, it is all my goodness, we got Maldredge and Jack Bolland in that pack. I forget that these Winter Wildcards hide in behind. Okay, that's not bad, welcome back to playing FIFA. Thank you EA Sports, appreciate that one. But with the daily SPCs that we have leaked, I feel like we've hit the peak. Maybe besides one or two SPCs, I feel like we've hit the peak of what daily players that we are going to be getting. Before I open this 83 plus double, I wanna take you guys through a couple of the most recent leaks that to me just don't look that great. Oxford added to come, of course, another English card in the Bundesliga. We have that Osei 2-2 guy that's like a left wing with a lot of different position changes that's in the SPC section right now. I believe he is Bundesliga in English as well. So, I mean, it's a decent looking card. I mean, if you could position change him to send it back, I don't know what his base card is for position changes, but that would be a dope center back card. But again, you look at these guys with the stats too. Fadiga, left wing, like that card does not look that great to me if I'm just being completely honest. We go down here, Belagarde. This card could be a cheap beast. Again, I think I said it earlier. This reminds me of like in a table type card from last year, French midfielder with a lot of pace and pretty good stats elsewhere. These guys just have to be really, really cheap. We do have Eric Bayi that is still leaked. This would be a nice, fun card. And a lot of these leaks that we have as well, League One is kind of the push, right? League One's kind of the push, except for that Bundesliga guy, Oxford. And then we still have Silas as a leaked card as well. Five-star skill, all the hype, just because of the name for that one. So, but to me, it just seems like the daily player SPCs, we've reached the peak almost, unless there's some other ones that are gonna be released that we don't know about yet. I heard there is a leak for some other sort of French Winter Wild Cards SPC player, but I don't know the name. We haven't seen any official leaks for it yet, so I don't know. I would just say take that with what it is, a grain of salt. But yeah, I mean, the player SPCs that I see don't look that amazing, but there is a lot of league on in there. So maybe you watch your League One cards because who knows, there could be a bit of a push on those if that is where the hype is for SPCs throughout the rest of the week. So we're getting an essential in this pack. Again, I have to remember to look at the back of the pack. All right, we get nothing there. We get 23s, unfortunately, but hey, we'll take the Butland and take the Modrich because that Modrich is probably gonna find his way into the Tony Cruise SPC, just because that is one that I would like to get done. It's very interesting to me that all those store packs are expiring today. That's so, so, so interesting to me. It just makes me feel like something in the store might be dropping again today as well. Maybe they're gonna refresh one of these. I doubt they do all of them, but I feel like this is gonna be something, man. I feel like there's really, really gonna be something today in the store. I want to keep an eye on that. We will be back streaming today watching the market moves, and I feel like the market's gonna be pretty healthy until content today. And then from there, we will just see where it goes. But I mean, right now the menu grind is absolutely unbelievable. I know I haven't mentioned this a ton. I wish that EA would add a separate tab for some of these upgrade packs. I think I did miss one of the first challenge SPC tokens, so that's on me. But these upgrade packs, the Winter League, not that one, the Premium Winter League upgrade. Yes, of course, it's got the market moving like crazy. Check your clubs for CogniBull, Sudamerica, Liberty Doris, League One, AirDivisie, of course. I need to check more of my club and start doing these SPCs myself. But it's a grind, but like bronze pack method into the bronze upgrade, into the silver upgrade right now and like to really rinse your club and to do that sort of menu grind. It is absolutely impeccable right now to go through all of this. It's not the best grind that it's ever been, but it's doable. And with all the best of cards and packs right now, which doesn't even give us a date for how long these best of cards are in packs. It literally just says best of. I think EA is gonna have to update something with this because there's no loading screen, there's no official, I looked on the website, there's no official link, and it's just kind of tough. Hopefully they update on that. Update us on that today with that. Cause that's an EA mistake as well, I guess you could say. And that crashed a lot of those card prices for sure. And that was a big surprise on Christmas day with those being released in packs. Now really quickly with the swaps, we are currently up to 14 swap tokens with one of them being released yesterday in the Winter Wild Cards Challenge three. So the Christmas Cheers SBC with a 50K pack, that was dropped on Sunday with the Christmas Cheers and then the Winter Wild Cards three. So two more there, we have 14 total, probably another one coming today. I could see it again just like last week on Tuesday, they dropped it in the first owner Fiesta game mode, which is refreshing again today. So I didn't go and get all these done, I just got my one win, got my token and I got out of there. But if you have not done this one yet, oh here in objectives, make sure you get that one done. And then also watch out for Silver Stars because Silver Stars tomorrow will probably be the place where they put another token in this game on Wednesday. So we'll just have to see. But personally, I have no coins invested or anything else with that right now because I did a couple of quick flips, sold some stuff from my club, and we will see what EA does today. I'm ready because the market's pretty healthy unless we have some sort of panic SBC today that would make some prices drop, that could bring some crazy fluctuations to the market that might be good to trade in. But I'm ready to see what EA bring on because I'm ready to grind the menus this week to get some upgrade packs in, try to pack some cool stuff, and then of course, craft some of these SBCs. I really want to do Payette. I really want to do Tony Cruz because that will go like straight into my team. And there's plenty of time to do it. And I love that. I wanna get some of the league SBCs done. Of course, get these token SBCs done. There's a lot to do right now. And I think that's why people are loving the Winter Wild Cards promo. And EA might even have more surprises for us today. So we're gonna be on stream again, like I said, checking all that out today. So it's good to be back, lads. I hope you all had a great Christmas weekend. And if you enjoyed the video today, smash your thumbs up on a comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new. I'll see you today on the stream. It's been Nathan Ford Accountant, peace out.
