 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. We're talking about road to the final cards today and just the market as a whole as it is flying. Like everything on this market is high right now. I wanna talk about that and also team of your cards going out of packs today on Tuesday and as well a new card design that was re-added to the code last night. Foot Watch tweeted this card design out right here and if you do not remember what this is this is the end of an era card design. Now this card design was actually put out earlier this year. It was already in the code. Again, Foot Watch said that this code was taken out and then was put back in for this card design. So that makes us think and of course when we think end of an era there is one player that has just recently finished his career and has called it quits. We've had end of an era or flashback SBCs for him before and that is Mr. Wayne Rooney. If EA wanna create some more hype in this game and try to maybe resurrect the team of the year promo that was very lackluster this year this might be a way that they could go ahead and do that. Also it would be the perfect time for EA to drop a big SBC like this because once again SBC fodder is through the roof. It is crazy high. The only thing that was low were 83s and 84s and with yesterday's content with those double 83 defender attacker and midfielder packs this stuff has risen. Now all SBC fodder is back up again if you invested GGs, you're making mad profit, right? And again I would consider maybe even holding these cards a bit longer because what supply is gonna come until later this week and honestly we can leave rewards timeframe that's gonna push this stuff down. Honestly you can keep, I would expect and if we get a Wayne Rooney SBC today again that's why I said it would be a perfect time because SBC fodder is so high if they make Wayne Rooney have like 86, 87 rated squads that's gonna be an expensive SBC because you just look at how much some of these 87s and 88s and 89s are right now on the market. They're just crazy, crazy expensive, right? If we go take a look at the Bruno Fernandez player the month SBC because that's kind of our barometer for how high SBC fodder is. This guy's 1.157 million coins. He was 915k earlier last week when SBC fodder was cheap, right? So that is just a testament to what is going on in this game with prices everywhere flying, right? You can see Wayne Rooney is one of the most popular players on FIFA right now because people are expecting this SBC. Now it could come today. We didn't have players SBC yesterday on Monday. They've been kind of doing this every other day for most of the past week and a half. Every other day we get a player SBC so that might be content we see today. I'm not saying it's guaranteed, I'm saying it's possible and again, it's gonna be an expensive SBC regardless because you know EA sports, they're gonna make that very pricey. They know people have a lot of coins right now in this game and what are people doing with those coins? They're doing SBCs. They're interacting with the content that is left over in FIFA and they're buying cards. There are a lot of people who are investing with those coins right now as well and that's what I wanna talk about with Road to the Finals because these guys are flying. They're going literally through the roof, right? Rebiage to the moon. Is that the new thing that's happening in FIFA with all these cards? It's kind of crazy, kind of a play on the actual stock market from stuff that went down last week but Rebiage is 152K, this guy was like 120. Pogba is up 100K, Wynaldum is up a bunch. Veron is 1.6 mil. I was telling you guys about this in the last few days. We knew Road to the Final Cards, we're gonna be where everybody turned to invest and that again is the case. Now of course, one thing that I'm worried about right away with these cards is over investing and I think that possibility is very real with a lot of these items. Cicoko was 1.2 mil. Remember when I was talking about Kula Bali being 580K? He's up 100,000 coins. Even the most like unusable Road to the Finals that really nobody likes to play with in this game that haven't moved around for weeks. This guy Draxer went from 46,000 coins. He's up basically 10,000 coins purely based off of people wanting to invest because they know these games are two weeks away, right? We are now in February so that means Champions League is coming around once again. This Rashford was 900K last week. He's up 200K. Davies had a crazy rise because of of course how expensive his team of the year card is. Now the only card that I see in here right now that is still kind of like low in a sense is this Oblak and he's actually up like 15 to 20K but he's still lower than what he was earlier this year. He was over 300,000 coins for a bit a minute but that was before the whole Boatang and the Neuer situation happened in FIFA. So I do think there is a bit of over investment that's gonna be happening with these cards but of course these guys are so rare that what's really gonna make them drop. If you're somebody who invested in these road to the final cards and you're making a lot of profit right now, I still don't think that you really wanna sell because in all honesty these cards are so rare and people are gonna be holding on to these road to the final investments for a while. They're gonna be holding on to them for a while. That's a nice little undercut right there on Zacharia but he's really not even that flippable. 239, I mean I've got like 12K of tax here. That's not really profitable so I'm probably not gonna buy it but yeah these road to the final cards I'm probably not gonna get interested in them because honestly yes they could go higher but with so many people that have invested I'm a bit scared right? You know I don't like when I see stuff that's already been invested in so much that has already increased in price a crazy amount. Now people that bought these cards they're gonna be willing to hold. People that bought these road to the finals that have games in two weeks are gonna be very willing to hold because they know that when those games happen that's when the potential upgrades happen and these cards go up even more in price. So over the next couple weeks with whatever promos that we have come out we're still gonna have to keep an eye on these cards. Like if Future Stars comes out this Friday and it causes the market to drop a little bit and some of these road to the finals drop down in price, that's gonna be an area where we're gonna have to keep tabs on it because that's gonna be a possible, you know quick flip, these guys are so so rare and FIFA it's been this way the past couple of years they have like no pack supply whatsoever. It's kind of wild. So that's one thing that I want you kind of I want you guys to keep in mind as we go out through these next couple of weeks that these cards are very rare and a lot of people have them stacked in their teams and on their transfer list and that is just potential. What is this? And Diddy is 276 just sitting there and the next one's at 284. Man, these guys are so rare, it's crazy. Anyway, that's, you know what's gonna really affect these cards prices is just the promos and if there is an opportunity to buy one on a low it's gonna be a fantastic time to do so because if it's a meta card and especially if they have a good matchup, right? It all depends on which cards have good matchups and which ones are OP and favorable in meta and FIFA that a lot of people like to use in their teams. That's the kind of stuff that you wanna be looking at for drops with these cards. Muhammad Salah is 1.8 million coins for his right wing Liverpool item, which is insane. That's really, really high. That's really, really insane. So yeah, man, that's just like the whole point. Honestly, the entire market is just really high right now unless it was stuff that was kind of panic sold off. You know, like some of those older team of the weak cards or some of the headliners. Let's get a check in on these real fast. Holland's 535, he's moving up. Gretzger is 732. Taylor Hernandez is 735. So basically all live cards in this game bounce back incredibly. Even the Boatang, I think the Boatang SBC went away. This guy was in the 180s after his game on the weekend coupled with weakly sell-off. Open McConnell, of course, maybe a little bit of a rise involved with Sabitzer. But just a crazy bounce back on some of these Bundesliga center backs that were live items. If you bought them when they dipped low when Boatang came out, we knew that they would rise and you're finally seeing that happen, right? Gretzger was 670 after they technically, they won their fourth game, but he was over-invested so he dropped. We knew that was gonna be a buy. He's back up to 730,000 coins on that card. It's all about the live items in this game. It really is. Bamba was down to 520. He's back to 560. Live item, Fabinho's 230. 230, what a bounce, man. What a bounce on these live items. That's why we were talking about bounces post-team of the year that the live items, the headliners and road to the finals would have the best bounce. And we are exactly seeing that is the case. Now, a lot of stuff on the market still, you know, some stuff's a little bit low. Some stuff is still pretty high. It all just depends on, again, the links to that Ronaldo, Boatang, SBC and team of the year cards really flew. Team of the year cards really, really bounced. We saw it happening last night. It continued into today. Ramos is 2.1, 2 million coins. Davies is almost 2.1. Messi is 5.2. Crazy rise. Remember last night in the video we were looking at Neuer at 500K. He's up to 530. If you got some of him at like 480, that was a huge buy. Alexander-Arnold's almost 1.2 and Boppe's 7.2. Ronaldo is 9 mil. So all of these cards are up a lot. And that, again, I think it just goes in the fact is, people, if they didn't buy them when they wanted to on the weekend, when they were low, Sunday night, again, is a time when so many people just look at the market and they say, this is my time to buy and they go out and they buy cards. I was looking at this Inform Neuer as well. How much above 200K is he now? He's still running around, oh, really? Still running around 200,000 coins, which is kind of interesting to me. If I saw this guy in the mid 190s again, I would get interested because, again, the Boateng link is really, really important with this card. And of course, since his team of the year is up, about 30,000 coins from where it was, I'm sort of interested in that as well, right? Since this card's rising, then I would think the Inform would rise as well. So keep an eye on that kind of stuff for sure. You know, right now it's really not a time to invest on the market by any means. Now is, again, just a time to trade, flip, and to trade, and to watch fluctuations on icons, on special cards, especially those really, really rare items that a lot of people want to use in their teams right now. And they have the coins to be able to go out and splurge and splash the cash on a lot of these cards. So that's why you saw the final cards move up. Now I do think there's a possibility they could be over-invested, and there might be an opportunity for a sell-off later in the next couple of weeks or so. It just depends. But as it looks right now, what you're seeing is just the market's flying, SPC fodder is flying, and if EA would somehow release a Wayne Rooney SPC, what would that do to the market as well? Of course, Wayne Rooney at Derby County, he would just have the English links because they're in the EFL championship, the second tier league in England. So he wouldn't get a lot of green links. So again, you'd probably see some of those English icon cards. Probably have a little bit of a boost in price. Maybe you guys like Gerrard, you know, maybe the Prime or the middle. The icons with the, of course, those English links would be something I would definitely look into because of course people have been using a lot of the English icons with Tavernier. This would be another scenario where English icons could get another boost in price with more people wanting to go and use them if there was an SPC Rooney that would come out as an attacker. Maybe they would try to link like an icon with Rooney and Tavernier somehow in their team and get some chemistry that way. But again, EA has a huge opportunity here with the end of an era car design and since they re-input it into the code, yes, it's been out before as what Footwatch said. It has not been used this year, I don't think. I don't think we've had an end of an era SPC released this year in FIFA. So that would be a brand new car design and since they re-entered it in the code that would make me think that there's a possibility that that car would be coming out like today. Like there would be an end of an era car that would be coming out today in FIFA for sure. So yeah, we have these defender upgrades of course that go away with a full team of the year is going away tomorrow or today. Sorry, a full team of the year is going out of packs today on Tuesday. Last chance to pack a team of the year if that's something you're interested in trying to. I only am basically on Kimmich right now. Kimmich is the only car that I've packed and yeah, this is my squad at the moment after team of the year, right? I was able to craft Di Bala, Ronaldo. I'm about to finish Bruno Fernandez, packed Kimmich and then did the Boateng SPC as well. So, you know, I spent about a million coins a little bit less than that and I came out with all of these cards in my club and basically Bruno 92 is going to be done as well. Trying to figure out how I can get Fakir in this team or probably just going to use them as a super sub but packed him as well so that was kind of cool. So, team of the year was a big success for me. If you kind of look at it that way, I know a lot of you guys were able to craft icon SBCs and do stuff like that during team of the year with the upgrade packs that we're smashing. And now we're in that second half of the year of FIFA Ultimate Team where it's kind of like we're looking towards, you know, promos almost every single Friday with new and just kind of fun cards that they usually put out. Well, so I'm interested to see how EA kind of backs up team of the year because team of the year was just, right, just was not very good. I'm really curious to see with SBC content, with promo content, how they keep the train rolling into 2021 and into the new month and of course the new year in the second half of FIFA in like the calendar cycle of FIFA. So again, right now is a perfect time to be trading on the market of course with the amount of coins that people have. We talked about that. We'll talk about that later on this week as well. What kind of stuff you can trade with. We have icon moments coming up, maybe winter refresh. Shapeshifters is in February last year, I believe. Of course, future starts probably come this Friday. So today is kind of the end day for team of the year though and it just kind of marks the end of a very important period of the biggest promo and FIFA of the year, honestly. So we're kind of heading out of that into something new. So EA could really spice it up today if they do drop a little end of a narrow Wayne Rooney SBC. EA, it's your move. It's on you. Let's see what they do boys. If you guys enjoyed this video, make sure you smash a thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new.
