 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. We are talking Foot Birthday Investing today, all right? We're gonna talk about Foot Birthday Investing. Can you buy any of these cards? In the really short term, we're talking like now, tonight with weekly rewards. This video is gonna go live just a couple hours before those rewards. So if you're interested in these cards, whether it's a buy for your team or a buy for an investment, I'm really interested in actually buying some of these cards, I do think I will end up doing. So we're gonna talk through that some of that stuff tonight and also talk about the new SBC that came out on Wednesday, which is the Team of the Week upgrade. I think it's what it's called, Team of the Week Upgrade Pack. I'm gonna talk about this. Is it worth it? Should you do it? And just kind of my thoughts around this and what this did to the market on Wednesday in Foot. So again, today is weekly rewards. A lot of people played Foot Champs this weekend. I'm telling you tons and tons of people played Foot Champions this weekend because of the extra weekly player picks that were available in the objective section. And I think that's gonna drive more people to play this weekend as well because a lot of people are on the game still, as we know, and it's just causing FIFA to be more hyped up. I do expect the market to rise after rewards. I've got a plethora of things on my transfer list that I'm gonna be trying to flip, weekly rewards, flipping, a lot of Informs, a lot of special cards, some other golds here that are a part of just the stuff that I was doing for upgrade SBCs, possibly some icons as well. A lot of this stuff I bought on Sunday, right? And I was planning this whole week that I was gonna, I bought this stuff on the Sunday, weekly sell off, and then I was gonna sell it later in the week, right? I got these Icones for like 230,000 coins, 227K. And now he's like 250, 260 pre-rewards. I'm probably gonna bump this realist price up to like 287 when I re-list this later tonight, overnight for rewards, because that card is already back up to like 260,000 coins. So, the big thing that we wanna look at today though is these foot birthday cards, because right now we're about, you know, we're about five hours or I'm recording this. We are about five hours ahead of the weekly rewards being released onto the market. And some of these cards are starting to dip in value because people are realizing, hey, you know what? It's weakening rewards time period. I'm gonna sell my cards, get my coins before rewards, and then go from there, right? That's what happens a lot of times on Wednesday nights. That's why I like to pick up a lot of my Thursday flips, literally five, six hours before rewards come out, because a lot of people are listening on open bid to just get the cards out of their club. A lot of the guys in the UK before they go to bed, they list their cards up, they get their coins, open bids a lot of times, and that creates some areas for profit, and people are just listing their cards in general. I wanna talk about which cards out of this team I'm the most interested in. Card number one that I'm the most interested in is Douglas Costa, 546K. Basically the cheapest that this card has been all week. Of course, we knew last Friday that the whole price range debacle with this card being extinct at 750, going up to like 1.4 mil, and then, you know, it went down a lot throughout the course of this week and I feel like we got this price correct and I said this is somewhere around a 500K card. The lowest that I had seen this man was Sunday night 550, and then today, he's been, you know, 550, 560, dropping into the 540s tonight. So the big question here is, and this is the biggest scenario, right? Whether you buy right before rewards, when this guy is, you know, maybe 540,000 coins, or you try to pick up a snipe during rewards after rewards is released, for a card like this, I think that's your buy time. You wanna buy this earlier? Earlier rather than later, because I think this card has a lot of hype, 15,000 games played in five days of this card being out of the game. That's a lot, right? That's second to Lamar, I believe, out of all of these, and Lamar only has been beat because this is a cheaper card and it has more supply on the market with 18,000 games. So these are two of my favorites, honestly. I like the Brazilian left mid, I mean, before five star, five star, Brazilian left mid, you've got Bale, or excuse me, not Bale, you've got Neymar, and that's kind of your only option, right? Now you have another option with Douglas Costa. I'm a big fan of this card. I do think it will rise back to 600K at some point this weekend. So I'm gonna try to snag one or two of them, maybe. If I can get like 530, I would love to see that. I would love to see 530. I will not be awake for weekend league rewards, but if you're gonna be awake and on the market during rewards, that could be an option, right? This is what happens a lot of times with these big, you know, the more rare, the more expensive cards, they're usually a buy pre-rewards in the panic sell because they don't get packed much and more people wanna go out and buy them, right? So this Lacazette, if you can snag him as close to a million coins as possible, I don't know what his lowest recorded price on footbin is, last night, 1023. So this guy's probably popped right around a million coins. I think this card will easily be 1.1 mil tomorrow evening after rewards, right? Again, French, French, French. There's a lot of France links in this team that I think we need to pay attention to, and I think those cards are gonna rise very well. This Gareth Bale, right? He hit a low of last night at like 1.7. That was a freakish low time. He has usually been around 1.8. I just saw one go at 1.76 while I had the screen flipped and that's not a bad price at all for Gareth Bale. But this Lacazette interests me as well. If I could snag one of these at like 1.01 or as close to one million coins as possible, I would be very interested in him. But yeah, I do think these cards will rise out of packs. If we take a look at set one, if we take a look at team one, these guys have absolutely ballooned. Now, I know that team two maybe isn't as hyped as team one, but there's a lot of cards that have just gone up in price a ton from this set weren't the forefront. Killian Abape is 5.7 million coins. That's a million coins higher than what he was at his lowest. That's insane. Rashford's 1.55, Havards 393, about the same. Sozoko 900, Lozano's up, Hernandez is up. St. Maximon was 1.2 million while he was in packs. He's now 1.6. Griezmann's up 200K. Hazard's up 150K. Mooney Ion's up a little. Cancelo is up like 30K-ish. A lot of these cards have risen. And again, if you take a look at what cards have risen, French, right? All the French cards have risen. If you look at Premier League, right? All the Prem cards, Rashford's about the same price. He hasn't risen as much. Cancelo with the Premier League links has risen. The only cards that haven't risen that much are just ones that aren't as popular or OP like the Correa hasn't gone on much, the Guerrero, but you wouldn't expect those two, right? You wouldn't expect those to go up that much. So which ones am I expecting to make the biggest and quickest jumps from this team? For a couple reasons, I'm gonna pick, let's say I'm gonna pick my top three out of this set that I think are gonna rise the most as an investment opportunity, right? As a return on investment opportunity. I think they will all rise, but I think a couple of them will rise the most. Number one, Douglas Costa, I think he will rise the most. I think he'll be over 600,000 coins. And depending on how much hype he has compared to what the team won hype was, and if we get a promo this weekend, that would also hurt some of his rise. But if there's no promo, the market just rides up this weekend, I can see this being 650K at its max. I mean, that may seem a bit crazy, but the second weekend as well, maybe he's out of packs for a week, and not this weekend, but the next weekend. Ulster's 700K is not too far off in my opinion. I also think this Virgil van Dijk is gonna do very, very well. If you can get this guy for around 1.2 mil, as close to 1.2 as you can, there's a really big gap, not a huge gap, but he got a pretty nice upgrade over his 92-rated inform. He broke the 80-pace barrier, which is big for a card, and that's why he's 1.2 million versus 900K. And then after that, you have this 3.9 million card team of the year. So there's a big price difference between these two, and I think that this for birthday card will be 1.5 million coins again very soon. I think he'll go back up to 1.5, I honestly do. The five-show weekly is nice, but I think it's just the 80-pace, and the decent stat upgrades that he's got, at least 1.4. Because this is a very rare card as well. I think he's gonna rise pretty well out of packs. And then, you know, I think Taylor Knight is gonna do well too. This dude has maintained a really, really solid price this entire week, 400,000 coins. If you see this guy dip into the 300s, that is a buy from me. Again, only 20,000 coins of tax here. If you buy him at 400K or under, that's a big one there. So I do think set two will rise nicely out of packs. I think Lemar will go to 130K, which isn't bad, you know, for the amount of tax and how much you'd have to pay for that card. But again, the things you should be looking for tonight, right, like I'm looking at Douglas Costa. I'm looking at Douglas Costa. What is stuff that you wanna look into, and what is stuff that you wanna pay attention to when you're trying to mass invest, or even just buy one of cards from a promo team that are in packs? What you wanna see is you wanna watch the open bids tonight, right? The open bids. This Douglas Costa, his cheapest on the market is 545, and this one with a bid of 545 and a buy now of 548 is expiring. That shows me that there's not many people buying at the moment. I think I had a couple open bids that I was watching on Douglas Costa as well. Yeah, they're right here. So 530, wow, okay, so that one went for 530. What did this one go for? 540, 536. So there's a couple of them in the 530 range. That makes me wanna buy this card at like 530s and 520s. If I see that on Douglas Costa, I'm a fan. I'm a fan in that range on that card right there. Let me go look at Van Dyke too, just to check. I don't wanna buy a ton of these cards. I wish I could slot. I mean, Van Dyke could kinda go into my team, but are there any cards in this team that I would recommend going out and breaking the bank for? When I go out and buy 100 lasagnas, I don't think I would do that. Lasagna's got a really high pack weight. Do I think it's a decent value card? And has he dropped a lot today? Yeah, a lot of people are using this card, but he's gonna get packed a ton, man. This card's gonna get packed a lot, and it's not Prem, it's not French. I just don't know how much hype there is for this card. People say he's very good. Phippen says he's 139,000 coins, so I don't know what's up with that, but people are saying this card is very good. I'm not entirely sure how much it's gonna rise out of packs. I just think it's gonna be an okay one, right? I just think it's gonna be okay. Maybe if you see this on the PlayStation at like 130 and on the Xbox at like 110, if it gets hit with rewards and it goes down another, you know, 10%, then I would be interested in this card. But this is also one of the most popular cards used this week in foot. But again, right before week in the awards, just take a look at the panic, right? If you wanna get yourself a DiMaria, you wanna get yourself a DiMaria for your team. I know a couple of people have mentioned to me that they wanna try this card out, right? How much is DiMaria? 980, 975, 970, right? And we have a bid at 970 here, which is kind of holding its price up. Not a lot of people are gonna undercut that 970 barrier because they see this bid with a buy it now. You know what? This guy's probably gonna rise out of packs too. Maybe back up to like 1,050. It would be my kind of thought process in that one. But again, this is your night to buy them, right? If you're watching this video and it's after rewards and the prices have already started to go up a bit already, you know what? I still wouldn't be too afraid of it. I still would not be too afraid. I think they will all be higher next week, just with the way this market is. And this team of the week, SBC right here, this had the potential to drain a lot of coins off the market today. And I don't think that it's going to. I don't think this is gonna drain a lot of coins off the market because it's not an 81 plus team of the week upgrade, right? I'm seeing a lot of people do these and get 75, 76, 77 rated team of the week cards. And that really does not, that just turns people off to this SBC to be quite frank. That just does not make people want to do this team of the week upgrade SBC. When they are getting 77s and 78s out of it. I haven't seen many good polls, couple 85s, couple 86s, but it's just pure SBC fodder. So this is out for five days in total, four days and change remaining. That makes me think that we might not be getting a promo this weekend since they've left this out. For this long. So that kind of interests me that that SBC has been left out for this long. The mid icon upgrade is out for eight more days as well. So basically another week from Friday. That's another reason why I don't think we're getting a promo this weekend. I think EA are just gonna let these SBCs ride out for most of next week. I know there's not gonna be a ton of SBCs, but the mid icon, of course we have some of these other upgrade SBCs will be out for a few days. So you know what? I don't know if we get a promo this weekend. I really don't know. This would be like the timeframe of when we would have gotten a team of the knockout stage, but obviously there's no Champions League going on. So I don't know about a promo this weekend, boys. I really don't know unless we see something today on Thursday that is like a leak or something in the pat code. I'm gonna say for right now, I don't think one's coming. That's just my personal opinion. Anyways, back to the 83s. Yesterday in the video, I told you to sell your 83s in the hype. This is technically their hype right here. They did boom up immediately after the SBC was out as a whole on the market they boomed up. The SBC only required 40K. So that helped out a lot of these cards. Like we were looking at last night on stream. Ilaramendi was 2.2K last night on stream. Right now he's 1.9. And this is the stuff that happens with 83 investing. You have to be one of the first ones in because right now the market's at 98 points. We are lower tonight than we were last night. This SBC was released, I think right here maybe. Maybe right here at 103. That's when the pat code came out. So we went from 102, 103 all the way up to 113. It boomed up to 120 an hour after the SBC came out and now we're all the way back down. So these 83s are gonna keep going lower. If you bought 83s and you made profit GGs, but again, this is what happens a lot of time when an SBC doesn't have the hype. It's almost better to take the guaranteed money and sell into that hype. There was a little bit of a rise after the SBC came out. But that was not a crazy amount. I wanna talk about this team of the week moments as well. Some of these guys are actually a little bit on the cheaper side. Son is 1.3 mil after his 90 rated inform was around 1.1 to 1.2 this last weekend I think. 90 rated son, wasn't he 1.2 last Friday? Yeah, 1.2 on Saturday is now dropping off because of the new team of the week son. But I don't think this card has dropped enough. I really don't and I think this son, I know it's a small upgrade, but I really think this son, if you see this card under 1.2, maybe like 1275 and I had rewards. I could be very, very interested in that and for an Xbox price range on this, maybe like 950 for the new one and then maybe, I still wanna see this one drop on the PlayStation. It's dropped enough on the Xbox, hasn't dropped enough here. But I feel like this team of the week might have been hit with some extra supply today and more people selling it because of the SBCs that came out. A lot of these 84s are legit discard. Lejadjic, discard value right now. Hugo Malo, probably a good one to pick up at discard as well. Chuck it in the club. This is an SBC fodder inform as well. But again, the team of the week SBC that came out today, I don't think it's gonna affect the market that much. Of course, it's repeatable and it's a coin drain. It has the potential to drain coins off the market. But I don't feel like it's gonna do that much because it just doesn't have the hype to it right now. It doesn't have the hype. It doesn't have anything to do with foot birthday. We didn't get any player SBCs this week. After we got SAR, we literally have gotten no other player SBCs this week, right? Is that true? Except for the Ole Baguti. Man, this second week of foot birthday was just kind of a letdown, boys, to be honest with you. It was more of a letdown than it should have been. I think week two should have been at least better than this with more player SBCs. But it is what it is. And hopefully today we find out if there's anything coming this weekend. I saw a couple cool concepts on Twitter for some people that were possibly shouting out like a, you know, I've been doing like the team of the week moments. Maybe they would do some sort of a new card design and they would throw cards in packs that were like Champions League moments, right? I did see some people talking about that. That would be cool if they did something like that. Do I think it's gonna happen? Do I think it's possible? I don't know. I wouldn't bank on it by any means. But that is something that I guess could come. So just keep that in mind today. When you're looking for the content at 6 p.m. UK today, I haven't seen anything that's been thrown into the pack code, nothing new that we know about. So you know what? There's not a lot of surprises. Not a lot of surprises for today. On the FIFA market, to be honest, should be just a nice rising day after rewards. If you did make your week in league rewards investments like I did, I've still got four million left in the tank to put into cards tonight. Hold those, hold them past 6 p.m. UK. Hold them until Friday if you really need to. You could sell them Thursday night if you wanted to or you could even hold onto them Friday night if we're not gonna have a promo and we don't know anything about a new promo because these cards will probably just rise into the weekend as people do play week in league. There's people on this game. And of course, they're gonna want to try out some of these new foot birthday cards. So again, if you're looking at foot birthdays, keep an eye on their prices tonight. Watch the panic selling, watch the open bids. Again, you're gonna see tons of these open bids on the market at the 59th minute as people pack these cards and or they're selling them right before rewards. And you'll probably see a lot of open bids as people pack these cards at rewards as well. So again, Douglas Costa, Taylor Hernandez, Van Dyke, Lacazette, DeMaria, those are kind of my favorites. If you want to get yourself like a Pogba, use Mbappe as an example of how much this Pogba card could go up. I think this Pogba card will be 3 million coins very, very soon. What is it? 2.267 right now. Check the scouter rewards. If you could get this on like a 2.6 mil or below on the PlayStation. And then maybe it's somewhere like, what is it on Xbox right now? Xbox, he's 2.19. So maybe like 2.1 flat or below on the Xbox. I don't know if that's super crazy or not based on the graph. No, that doesn't look crazy. Yeah, that's not crazy at all, 2.1. You could very possibly see that. Yeah, it's very possible. If you see like a hundred K undercuts in this Pogba, this guy is going to boom. This guy's gonna boom out of packs. If, again, if set one was any relation to what's gonna happen to set two, even though set two may not rise as much, I do think this card is going to explode out of packs and be 3 million coins at some point this weekend just because he's rare. The card is very, very rare and he's desirable, right? This is the Pogba card you'll be using this year. And it's crazy to think that I have him in my club first owner, untradable. Wow, still can't believe it. Still cannot believe that I got that card yesterday. But I do expect basically all of these for birthdays to rise up today at price. So get in while the getting's good, okay? Before rewards, watch the panic sell, watch the open bids and see what you can snag for some of these cards. Look at this, man. All these open bids before rewards. It's crazy, it's fun. Get on the market, make some buys and make some profits selling after rewards. Take your time selling again. We're not expecting a promo, so take your time selling again, all right? I will catch you guys in a video tomorrow. If we get any more information on what's coming, if we get a loading screen or anything like that, I will be here to talk about it. Good luck with your Weekend League flips. Let me know how they go. See my Twitter in the description. Send me pictures, screenshots of your companion app, of your sales, whatever it may be. I would love to see those. All right, boys, thanks for watching. Like it if you enjoyed it. Subscribe and comment down below if you have any questions. It's been Nate, the Foot Accountant. I'll catch you guys later. Peace out.
