 Hey guys, it's Nate, A.K. in the photo account, and welcome back to the channel. Happy Monday, and welcome to another week on FIFA 22, another week closer to team of the season. That's what we're gonna start talking about today at the beginning of today's video, is it time to sell before team of the season? We talk about team of the season stuff, how it's gonna affect the market last week on the channel, but I wanna revisit that question today on a Monday, because Mondays are usually days where the cards are a little bit higher on the market after we can leave rewards, so today might not be a bad day if you still have cards that you want to get out on to get out of some of those, take the coins, because I think that even today with the content we're gonna be having, we could see the market drop off a bit and prices could go down because of the content that is coming back. Another prime icon player pick is coming back today, and I think we're getting ever so close to leaks or official announcements about team of the season. I don't think we're far away. I think that could come later at the end of this week. I'll talk about that a little bit in this video as well. And again, speaking of today's content on Monday, the big piece of content I'm watching out for is this prime icon player pick being repeatable again. Of course, you see, I have not done it, but 14 hours there from when I'm recording this video, which is 6 p.m. UK today on Monday, that means that people are gonna be doing this again. It's gonna take coins off the market, fodder is gonna go up, and some of your meta cards are gonna go down. So we'll talk about that in today's video and all of the showdown madness from yesterday on this game. Cards getting upgraded, cards not getting upgrades, fantasy foots and showdowns, right? Usman Dembele is getting a plus two upgrade. Already one of the most overpriced cards in this game. He's gonna go to a 94 whenever these cards upgrade. We have all of our games locked in from the weekend. One more game today, Crystal Palace and Arsenal. Of course, that's affecting the Martinelli card. So I've got a couple of those still to sell, but I wanna talk about all those upgrades and I'll officially post the link down below in the description if you wanna see all of the upgrades that are gonna happen. I forgot to do that yesterday in the video, my apologies, but I will do that today. And also, there's a lot of news around Mbappe right now because Mbappe had a two goal three assist performance yesterday and that, of course, is team of the week numbers. Neymar or Mbappe probably getting into team of the week this week, so that's got a lot of people thinking about a 96 upgraded headliner version of Mbappe getting seriously close to that team of the year version, which is kinda crazy. So we'll talk about that a little bit at the end of the video and of course everything market related around the game today. So if you're excited for kind of a hype Monday on FIFA with a showdown Kent also being a part of the content we can see today, hit a thumbs up on the video and of course, subscribe if you're new. But again, let's talk about that question we posed at the start of this video. Is it time to sell before team of the season? I have kind of started to sell off a few of these things. As you can see, I'm starting to sell off my Martinellis. I bought all of these at 525,000 coins. I bought all these walkers at 400K and below, kinda selling these around the 470 range. I'm trading with a few icons at the moment, but a lot of stuff that I invested in last week on my transfer list, like these Tiagos are up like 70,000 coins, like 55,000, he might be by now. You know, these walkers are up to like 480. This Lucas Hernandez, I bought at like 550 on some snipes. This dude is almost 720,000 coins. He's actually nearing extinction. The Prevarat SBC helped him out a little bit yesterday, but what I'm really looking to do in the coming days is get out a lot of these cards. Honestly, I'm gonna be rolling pretty liquid in towards the later parts of this week because it's been a quiet week. And again, I think that team of the season is, honestly, we might have team of the season information towards the middle or latter parts of this week, unless EA is actually gonna run it a little bit later. It just seems like unless they're gonna run a promo between now and team of the season, it seems like they're gearing up for like a pre-team of the season promo since this promo ends on Thursday, April 7th. That's got my tinfoil hat theories kind of going on. If you guys don't know the reference for tinfoil hats, that's a foot economist, the guy who now works at EA who used to do videos and stuff like this and then moved on to EA, he always would call things tinfoil hat theories, right? I've got my own tinfoil hat theories about why this promo is ending on a Thursday and how it actually could mean that voting for community team of the season might be Thursday or Friday. Since last year, it started on a Thursday. Now, I know it'd be a bit early, so again, that's just tinfoil hat theory. It might not be what's happening. We'll get some more information on that pretty soon, I do believe, but that's why I'm taking a look at the market right now and seeing some cards that are down a little bit. I don't think you need to panic, but I think this is just another one of those opportunities to sell some cards and to get out of them, right? I know some of you guys have sold like a week ago, you know, when we first talked about this stuff, but today being a Monday on the market, it is just a good day, most weeks, Mondays, our cards are rising up a little bit after week and the rewards, as long as they haven't been sold off too much. Now, of course, you have had some of the market drop off a bit and I'm looking at a team of the year right now, a lot of people that have team of the years are like, mate, should I be selling these before team of the season? My advice to you is yes, you should, because team of the season cards are gonna have similar stats and be a lot cheaper and some of these cards are gonna get team of the season items as well, but you know, some of these cards are down just a little bit. You take a look at this Rubin Diaz, who we've kind of picked as our example right now. He was 950K, 960 earlier in the weekend. He was like 950 again before the Icon SBC dropped on Saturday, went down to 900. You know, this sort of card, I can honestly see this Rubin Diaz being down another 100,000 coins or more than that in the next two to three weeks before team of the season comes out or when team of the season is announced and we have the panic selling and more drops in price and stuff like that. So I just think this is another opportunity today that if you have cards in your team, you can start, you can continue to get out of those. Now I know some cards, again, are already down a little bit from where they were, but that's just a combination of factors, right? We had that Prime Icon Player Pick that was released. That dropped prices. Fodder right now is kind of going up in price. So if anybody is doing the showdown SBCs, that's draining coins off the market. The market is slowly being devalued this week. That's why I think today after rewards might put a little bit of an emphasis on buying a few players for some people. And then I think you will see a couple of rises on the market, but just honestly, another opportunity to get out because the longer you wait, the more risk you kind of include in those cards of continuing to drop with team of the season on the horizon and with that official news being released, that team of the season is gonna come. So that's kind of my thoughts right now. Again, I'm not telling you to panic sell. I'm gonna get out of a lot of my stuff in the next day or two. Again, like I mentioned, the Martinelli's that I have, he plays today. So for me, this is 100% a card that I need to get out. I'm basically making, if I sell these at like 650 where I'm selling that first Martinelli that I had there, I'm literally getting almost 100,000 coins a profit per card, which is awesome. Literally awesome for a card that I bought on Thursday, selling it on Monday for almost 100K profit after tax. It's almost unbelievable. But I'm just kind of taking the money on some of this stuff. I wanna have my coins ready and liquid because when there's a lot of panic selling, there's gonna be a lot of opportunities to trade as well. We'll talk about that as the prices continue to drop, maybe the next week or two, we'll talk about how you can trade with some of those drops in price. So that's just kind of my, again, mindset right now. I know I've given you guys like multiple time frames of, hey, if you sell, if you haven't sold and just talking through some of the stuff like that. Now, speaking of, again, it is a Monday and some of these icon moments, I got some crazy bids in this Rooney. He's a 1.3 million coin card. Got him for 1.1 on an open bid. I got this Roberto Carlos at 1.4. He's usually selling in the 1.5s where he currently is. So some icon moments that I've noticed, I already have, I bought a couple of Van Percy. This is another card like, or another spot in the market where I've seen market drops. Van Percy was like 970, 950K, like on the weekend. And now he's down under 900. I bought a couple in the low 800s, trying to flip for hopefully a little above 900,000 coins. But that side of the market is also continuing to drop down a little bit. So again, that's just kind of my general warning that, hey, that sort of stuff, get it out soon-ish would be my recommendation for a lot of things related to the market. And especially what I'm looking to do for a lot of these cards today is maybe get them out before 6pm UK today with that icon, prime icon player pick being re-released again. I think that's gonna drop the market a little bit like you saw happen on Saturday this weekend. You saw the market drop a decent amount. Wow, 730 for this card. That is actually crazy. That's actually crazy. But I honestly think you're gonna see some prices dropping off today because of that player pick being re-upped. People are gonna get some fodder. They're gonna get some coins from Rewards. People that don't go out and buy cards for their teams today are gonna go out and buy some fodder to get this done today whether they're getting it done for the first time or they're gonna get it done for the second time. So I think that's gonna drain the market a little bit of coins today, which is another reason why I'm trying to sell some stuff into the hype. I think you'll see some drop-offs. And again, if there's a Kent SBC, which right now as it sits, this is the only leaked showdown SBC that we have at the moment. Not saying that this is the content we will get today, it would make sense that they released this today because this game is happening a little bit later on in the week. But this Kent card will be one that a lot of people would try to go after. So if this is released as a part of the Monday content today, I would really watch out for your English links. I would watch out for your English icons, your Tavernier, not the Tavernier that we had yesterday. You know, maybe people would link this Tavernier together, but really what I'm talking about is the right back Tavernier, which I can't find them. I'm just gonna search them up. Because this card, if the Kent SBC is really good value, this is James Tavernier card, he's extinct 35,000 coins. Did EA lower his price range? Okay, no they didn't. He was 40 and 35, but you know, this card going up from 20K where he was, this is gonna be the most popular way to link that Ryan Kent. And people are gonna do this SBC because it's Ryan Kent. And he's a meta card and he's a FIFA rat. He's just a FIFA card, right? So that's gonna be a piece of hype content today and with the Prime Icon Player Pick being repeatable. Again, like we mentioned, it could be a pretty heavy day of coins being sucked off of the market, if you will, and drained off of the market because of that content with some pretty high SBC. So that also has me thinking that SBC fodder hold on tight because it is only going one way and that way should be up because again, really no supply. We can make rewards today. It's not gonna supply fodder that much. We're gonna be talking about this all week. Unless EA do something crazy, these cards are probably just gonna slowly go up in value, especially like the Ramoses that I have. Yes, he's 37,000 coins. I know some of your other guys have like La Porte, right? For an 86 rated card that was 13K, most of the 86s are 16K, but some of these cards with better links since the Icon Player Pick requires higher chemistry, those cards are even going higher. So continue to list for lazies. If you've invested in informs, list those for lazies. List your fodder up a couple thousand coins over what the actual selling price is, maybe even 10K over because you will get some lazy sales like I talked about in yesterday's video. So that's one thing that I would watch to see on the market today as well on this game. So it's gonna be an interesting Monday. I don't know if they're gonna drop upgrade packs or upgrade SBCs. Since we already have the 75 plus, I would be surprised that they would do like an 80 plus player pick. There's really no reason for them to drop player picks right now. There's no special cards in packs or anything like that. It could happen, but I wouldn't really expect it since we already have this one, but this is gonna be the focus of people trying to craft player pick today or any of the showdown cards. And speaking of these showdowns, we had not one again, but we had two showdown SBC sets released yesterday. And EA went from like more expensive stuff on Saturday with Leg Horse or Trilocin, Braith White and Suso, not that they were that expensive, but the stuff that was released yesterday was all 100,000 coins and below. Benjamin Pavard, Serge Aurier, both with nice cards. I think EA gave Aurier a bigger boost because they don't expect him to get upgraded, of course. Champions League matchup, definitely buyer and her favorite for this game. But I think they should have done a bigger boost to Pavard. Honestly, Pavard's item is gonna look a lot like Aurier after he gets the boost. And I think that's where a lot of people are, you know, this is a good French right back. If you like the low high work rates, a lot of people I think are gonna end up using him as a center back in game. It's a really, really cheap card to do. Great lengths. I'm a fan of this SBC if you wanna do it. It's a nice card to collect as well. And potential plus to upgrade is what he needs to make this card good in the game. And you know, but 100,000 coins is not bad at all. And then you look at the other one that they released with the Tavernier and the Carvalho. These are both like 20,000 coins to complete for cars that are 87 rated right now. The cheapest 87 rated on the market is 26K. So it is a no brainer to get these done purely from an SBC fodder standpoint. And you know, if one of them upgrades, great. If they both get plus ones, great. They become 88 rated cards. So whether you're a Middlesbrough fan, you know, this card is three stars, Gilmour's four star weak foot, not the best. But the stats look pretty good. Carvalho's I think also three star, four star. So if this matchup means something to you, then you sweet get the cards. But for most people in the game, I really feel like this is gonna be just fodder collection with, you know, you do a couple 75 plus times five upgrade packs. You're gonna have some 81s, 82s, 83s that you can get to craft into these. So that's a GG for me, EA sports. Very, very cheap, very good quality SBCs for those yesterday from a fodder perspective. And also, you know, Povar's a nice French right back, not better than Klaus, but still a pretty decent item. Now a lot of movements on the market yesterday because of the fantasy foot upgrades. And this is what I wanted to spend a little bit of time talking about. I know some of you guys, it's confusing, right? It is very confusing as to which cards are going to get upgraded, which ones are not gonna get upgraded. And some of these guys actually got, by the way that EA is doing these rules, they got kind of screwed over by EA sports because their team either won or something and they're not gonna get an upgrade because of it. I don't know where Kamavinga is on this graph, but Kamavinga from Real Madrid, of course they won on the weekend. He's not getting upgraded because even though they won, he did not play. So all of these cards and all these upgrades are based around if you played. So I'm gonna put this link in the description. Again, I'll actually put it there this time. I won't forget like I did yesterday, but this is the accurate depiction of how these cards are gonna upgrade. Any card that gets an upgrade is gonna have the new card design as well. And we have three big ones to talk about, especially from yesterday, two pretty big ones. Lucas Mora, Tottenham Hossper beat, of course, they had a five to one victory, big up the lads, five one victory over Newcastle. Sorry if there's any Newcastle fans watching, but this Lucas Mora is gonna go to a 92 because they won, he played and he got an assist. So that plus two upgrade is gonna be right away happening to Lucas Mora at some point this week. Whenever it is, I think it's gonna be Wednesday. We will see. But the biggest upgrade from yesterday is the mad lad, Usman Dembele, with an assist and a one nil win. He is gonna get a plus two and go to a 94 rated item. He's probably gonna have 99 paced. They might, it just might boost them up into that 90 passing category, which would make this card look unfreaking believable. And his price, of course, represents that upgrade. He's 5.3 million coins at the moment. So, Ericsson, Lucas Mora, and Usman Dembele are only plus twos from the weekend. But like that graphic showed a lot of plus ones and this doesn't even talk about the showdown cards, right? A couple of showdowns that got upgraded from yesterday. Of course, I have the bronze squad active right now for the pack luck. But I do have one of these showdowns that's getting upgraded, Mr. Braith White. He's going to a 90 rated card. He's getting that cheeky plus two. No upgrade for the boy McKenny, which is a bit disappointing. You've ages, they did not clutch up and they were terrible, honestly. That's, there's no other way to put it. But Brozovic is gonna get a plus two upgrade for the other side of that showdown SBC from yesterday. So, those are our first two showdowns that have had their games actually played from the weekend. Braith White getting a plus two. Brozovic getting a plus two from the showdown cards that we have had released already on the game. So, that was kind of, you know, big market movements. Now, again, speaking of market movements, which cards have moved the most? Usman has gone up. Lucas Mora, as we mentioned, I should have mentioned this when we looked at his card. This card was a million coins yesterday. He went up to about 1.19 after he assisted and spurs won the game. Now he's back down into the lower 1.1 million coin range. Other cards that had a lot of big price movements yesterday. Let me take a look at the market a little bit just to remind myself at which one's moved. Some cards went down. Anthony Martial, of course, with Sevilla losing and he was in the game. So, accounted for his, you know, appearing in however many matches, three matches that you need to appear in. But he's down a little bit, right? He's in the 600s now. After dropping down about 50,000 coins, you know, Alessandro dropped off a little bit. Some of these cards, actually Nani is one that has dropped off a lot. Now, I know from the weekend, you're like, Nate, a lot of these cards have dropped off. Nani's 480,000 coins at the moment. That's like the lowest that he has been, even lower than what he was when he was in packs. And that's just because people are starting to bail on a few of these cards that don't look like they're gonna get the upgrades. And that's why we were really, really serious about selling these before the games and selling into the hype, because then you take all the guesswork out of it, right? As I'm trying to search up Mr. Martinelli right now, which I can't spell. That's why I'm trying to sell Martinelli in the hype again today, because I'm gonna take my 100,000 coin profit. Oh, it's I. What am I doing, man? Martinelli, not Martinelli? I can't spell. Anyways, Arsenal, yep, that's enough said there. I'm taking the cash on my Arsenal card. It pains me a little bit to make this many coins off of an Arsenal item, but I'm taking the money. I'm taking the safe route, and I think that's just the safe thing to do if you have any of those cards still and they're up in price a lot. Big money moves. If you guys invested in any of these last week, it's just incredible some of the profits that we are getting. So that's kind of, that's honestly one of my biggest focuses today is taking the money on a few of these cards. I'm gonna list these at maybe like 670. Maybe we get a couple of Lazies or something like that. Not in a big hurry to sell these because I'm gonna try to get them out after rewards a game like I mentioned. I bought a Comma Venga yesterday at 540 because I thought it was really, really cheap. Even though he's not getting an upgrade, he's a super rare card and he dropped off a lot. So this DePie as well, I'm probably gonna try to cash out on today. Wow, he's 1.09, what the heck is that man? Anyways, I'm gonna try to get that out for like 1.19 if I can. But then the rest of this stuff, I have done a couple of my informs I've held onto. But I'm gonna take the cash and get a lot of those bigger investments that we saw rise up from the fantasy foot cards and some of the out-of-packs road to the final items as well. So also I wanna take a look at really quick is the Mbappe situation that's going on in this game because Mbappe, his headliner card is up because people are expecting after a two goal and three assist performance on the weekend, people are looking at this card and hoping for an upgrade. Of course yesterday Mbappe's price went from 3.1 mil. He rose all the way up to around 3.5 where he is now. And Mbappe just had the player of the month which if you're looking at this card, you're like, man, I just did the player of the month. If there's another inform that comes out from Mbappe, it's gonna be 94 rated and it's probably gonna be somewhere around like the 2 million coin range. But this headliner Mbappe, I mean, if you have the 94 player of the month, the stat upgrade to the headliner is yes, there's gonna be a little bit more passing, a little bit more shooting, a little bit more dribbling. But for a card that a lot of you guys crafted for way cheaper than what the SBC price is, I don't know a lot of people that actually went out and spent 2.4 million coins to do this in Mbappe. A lot of people crafted this card for like a million or 500K or like 300,000 coins when it was all said and done from crafting and doing upgrade packs and SBCs and all the stuff that we've had since this SBC has been released. You know, a lot of people did this at such a great price that it still is an insane deal even though there might be another version of Mbappe that comes out. You know, that's just kind of what's going on with this card at the moment. The headliner is up and I believe his other informs are down a little bit because people are already starting to plan out, oh my goodness, Mbappe's getting another inform. So this card's gone from 1.6 mil. He was down all the way at 144, I believe. And it looks like he's bouncing back up. Can we potentially get on the end of this because this Mbappe is looking really, really rare at the moment. I don't know if I'm gonna be too late on this Mbappe card, the 93, yeah, 1.48. All right, I'm gonna add this to my watch list because it says on foot bin that there's a 1.475, a 1.48 and then he's like almost back to 1.6. So that's what happens with these really rare cards when they get panic sold. If I see one in the low 1.4s, I'm probably gonna try to pick that up. There's the 1.54 right there. So trading right now in the market is good even though we're in this recent stage right before a team of the season. Like again, I showed you with these icons, trading on the market is really good because you can get a lot of deals, bids or OP. If you put in the work, you can get a lot of insane profits. I'm gonna go try out this Rooney, see how good he is. I've been trying that this year and I got the moments version. So I'm gonna go give him a tryout on my last couple of games of the week in league but it's gonna be a good day of Monday content. I think there's gonna be a lot of movements to play around with the market. I'm gonna take a lot of the coins on my investments and it may seem like a slow week this week to a lot of you guys if we're just having SPC content but again, everything is gonna start to start clicking and everybody's gonna start getting that panic mode again once they officially hear the leaks or the words from EA Sports about team of the season. That's kind of the waiting game right now that we are in but while we're waiting, we do have some nice content. So GGs again, EA Sports for the content that's happening in the game right now. Let me know down below the comments what you guys are thinking about these showdowns. I like them, I think they're W's. Cards that won't usually get specials getting upgrades with these showdowns and they're live a lot of games this week too with Champions League. So that's gonna be stuff to talk about during this week of content as well. So if you enjoyed the video today, smash a thumbs up on it. Again, comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new. It has been Nate, The Foot Account and I will catch you guys later. Peace.
