 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. It is Sunday and you know what to expect today. That is upgrade packs. We need upgrade packs in this game, EA Sports. We need them bad because the market on the low end of fodder is absolutely crazy. Now, of course, you're thinking, wait, if they put out upgrade packs, those require rare golds. We need a specific type of upgrade pack today and I'm really curious to see if EA Sports is gonna supply that need for the market or somehow supply golds on the market to make that stuff drop because low tier fodder, 80s, 81s, 82s and 83s are insanely high because of that 85 times 10 pack grind that everybody's doing right now in this game. I really think that upgrade packs today could help out with that. So I wanna talk about that a little bit. Also talk about the content we had yesterday with the main man, Robin, getting a nice upgraded card here. That's a nice item, we like that. Also potential icon, SBC Today. The man that is in question or the man that is hyped up that could be getting an SBC Today is Mr. Cruyff, right? Last week, people predicted correctly with Ronaldinho and I think people are really expecting to see a Cruyff SBC Today on Sunday. So yesterday, of course, I wanna talk about the content that we had. We had two new SBCs and that was the Robin, right? A 96 rated item, five star skills with a four star weak foot. Of course, based off of his flashback SBC from January, which is a legendary card that was in this game. Now the only thing I wish they would have done here is mess with that attacking work rate. They did it with Debala. They moved him from medium to high medium. If they would have made this a high low card even though with the low defensive work rates, a high low, a high work rate on the attacking Robin would have been insane. That would have been a really awesome SBC. It still is great, right? A legendary card aimed FIFA 21, his flashback version. Nice to get a footies there. Also, I'm a fan that it's not 10 plus freaking squats, right? This is how an SBC should look, 82, 84, 86. Easy does it just like that. This SBC will actually be pretty cheap when the 82s and the 84 market drops down. It's 250K right now, but if 82s get out of the sky, they're at four and a half K. That SBC is gonna be very cheap and very craftable. It is out for a whopping six days. So it will expire after the 85 times 10. So if some of the lower tier fodder does reset, that Robin would be a bit cheaper. We also had an icon player pick, which to be completely honest, I've seen some people open these today and they have been awful. They've been surprisingly awful. 92 plus icon moments pack. We're getting into the higher tier of these icon moments packs. I think some of these should have come earlier if I'm being completely honest. Like all the stuff that we had here in swaps. Sorry, well, not there in swaps anymore, it's gone. But some of the 92 plus icon moments pack, the attacker only packs, stuff like that, I think should have come out a little bit earlier than it did. But in 92 plus moments, I think this SBC on a footpin actually has a ton of down votes. It's not a terrible, terrible price point, but just the players that I'm seeing packed from this, it does not have a good drop rate. I got sent one Eusebio today and then an absolutely mental player pick that had R9 and R10, but those were two out of like, I know hundreds of people that did them and did not do very well. I saw a lot of 93 butchegueno, right? Like gigs, those types of players today. You can see here with a 90% down vote as well. Also right now, why would you spend your fodder on this? 500K on that, when you can spend 500K and get Robin and 500K and get DiBala, right? For a card that is better than basically all icons that are in this game or get Robin and Daniel James for the same price or less than the same price. So I understand why this SBC is a lot of hype because it's icon moments. There's still icons in there hyped, but I think that was, you know, just the pack weight on that SBC is not that good. So I think it's a pass for a lot of people. It's also non-repeatable. I wish we had some sort of repeatable icon upgrade pack that was out as well. We had a new milestone objective, footies memory lane. I love the aspect of this, right? I love it. Of course, if you go out and you buy some of the players, then you can get this done in like, I think it's like five, six, seven games or something like that. I like this because it's a lot of packs. So right now it seems what EA is doing is they're trying to supply some packs to the market like these untradable objective packs and they're making you grind the gameplay for it. So I think some people were like, man, why are you giving us these loan cards? Loan cards in August, because it is officially now August, right? Why are you giving us loans? Which I totally understand, right? I mean, just the players in here, okay, whatever. I don't know if they're gonna, you know, 26 days for this objective. I don't know if giving us these loan players means they're gonna be giving out some other objective that is gonna require more goals or assist or whatever with these different types of special cards. But I think some people were put off by the fact yesterday that those were loan cards. But again, decent packs, right? Premium goal players packs. So you get a lot of them from in here and then you get at the very end an ultimate pack for the group reward. So that's just one thing. I'm hopefully gonna get this done playing draft during the week. You can kind of do some of that during draft. Maybe do a few couple extra games on the side and get a lot of stuff done with your draft objectives, with the winning ways objective. Right now there's a ton of these objectives that are just grindable to help you get packs. So that is nice in the fact that if the upgrade packs today aren't that good or they're not price effective, you can still grind through gameplay, which in August it is what it is. And if you don't wanna grind, nobody's gonna give you a problem because it's August, right? And this game is almost over. But speaking of upgrade packs, we need some sort of upgrade packs today because the potential grind here for the 85 plus is unparalleled. If there's a way, if there's an upgrade pack that they released today that really doesn't require rares because all rares right now are like 1,800 coins apiece. That's even for the low rated ones because again, everybody is doing these 85 times 10 packs because they're just so good with all the team that sees the items that are in their packs. Like 1,700 to 1,800 coins is what the rare gold cards are at, but you still have non-rares that are cheap. Cheap as chips, right? You still have non-rares that are down here at 450 coins, like the 75 rated ones. I really hope an upgrade pack SBC that they dropped today. We need multiple of them. I'll start by prefacing this. We need multiple of them, right? And one thing, you know what? I kind of thought about this earlier today while we were talking on the live stream. We stream every day on Twitch, by the way. Link down below in the description. Six days a week. I won't say every day, I won't lie. Six days a week. But we need something for those non-rare cards. We need some sort of pack in SBC that would require non-rares that we can put in. And one SBC that does are the old upgrades that we had during the league-specific upgrades that were dropped during the team of the year. And I think they didn't do it during Ultimate Tots this year, but during past years in Ultimate Tots, they dropped the league-specific upgrades where you get like a 25K pack of Premier League players, of Serie A, of La Liga, of Bundesliga, because there's a lot of special cards that are in packs right now. And those cards are great for crafting because they give you three rares and nine, is it nine? I think it's nine. You get 12 players from that pack. You get nine non-rares back. It's an incredible, incredible grind. So I am hoping that for some reason, those are the packs they would give us today. Even though they're league-specific, just the grindability with getting three rares and nine non-rares per pack would be insane. I love that aspect of it. I think that's too high of a fetch though. I doubt it's gonna happen. I think more along the lines of what we could see today is like an 82 to 88 upgrade pack and then some sort of like player pick or an 81 plus double. But the thing is for grindability, we just need more cards. Because a lot of you guys that are trying to do this 85 plus times 10, your clubs are looking like mine, right? You're like, all right, I need rare golds. I need rare golds, okay, 11 rare golds. Let me check my club and okay, I have two, all right. I have three. Well, I don't even wanna sell this as a hobby, dude, because I don't wanna put this into an SBC right now because this sells for three Ks. So like, I'm not putting that into an SBC at the moment. You know what I'm saying? So that's what the issue is right now that rare golds, if they require an 81 plus player pick that requires rare golds, it's just gonna take these rare golds higher. So that's why I think the most important thing for grindability today is that EA releases an upgrade pack SBC that requires non-rares. And that would make this go round. That would make just the grindability of that be great because then you could turn in non-rares. You could even go out and buy non-rares for probably like six, 700 coins a piece. You could turn those into an upgrade pack, get some rares, and then rinse your other non-rares that you get back, back into that to get more rares to then put into this squad. You put your 80 pluses in here. You get your 82 rated card. It just, it would be phenomenal for just grinding and grinding and grinding. So I hope, I hope that for some magic reason EA sports is like, man, let's let these guys grind and put out those league specific 25 Ks because you're gonna open those. And yeah, you're gonna hope to see Tots cards coming out of them and high rated cards that are impacts. But ultimately, it's just gonna be for the next three days just how much can you grind this 85 times 10 because that will be where the real crafting is. But again, I think my hopes are set high there. An 81 plus player pick or an 81 plus double upgrade pack would probably be more something I would expect. Maybe the 80 plus, who knows. But I do think we'll get some sort of upgrade packs today. So just the grind potential is insane. That's what I wanted to talk through with you guys today. And again, we're expecting a big icon. We're expecting a big icon and that is the main man, Cruyff. Of course it's not out right now but Cruyff has been on the popular page of Footbin near the top for like the past, almost the past week. Now I don't know if this is a leak or whatever and he's actually not on the popular page right now. This is terrible timing, in fact. But this Cruyff card has been dropping all week because we've had Eusebio, we've had Holit, we've had Ronaldinho. And now people are thinking this Cruyff is next in line. Since he's about three mil on the market, similar to, kind of around the range of Eusebio, I believe. Eusebio's 94 moments card is 2.25 now but he was four million coins earlier and in the threes. Between Eusebio and between Ronaldinho, I would imagine that the Cruyff SBC would hopefully be less than 20 segments and that a Cruyff SBC on the market would hopefully come in around the range of like two mil or less. Two mil or less, I mean, ESports do it for 1.5 and be nice to us but two mil or less is where I think that this SBC will be priced. But I could see it being from two mil to 2.5 because the thing is right now, high rated squads, high rated squads are so cheap. Doing 80, 86, 87, 88 rated squads, they're so, so cheap to do because take a look, you can go buy a 92 rated card for 29,000 coins. A 95 rated Neuer, 44K, Benzema, 53K. Unbelievable, Kane, 58K for a 96 rated card. Unreal, the amount of fodder, even like 93 is 30K, right? You go get a, especially if there's upgrade packs that are out, these icon SBCs are gonna be so grindable. You go buy a 93 rated Tots card for 30K or you go pack one, you go rinse some of your, you know, 80, 82, 81 rated cards that you've gotten from doing upgrade packs into that SBC and boom. All of a sudden you have an 86, 87, 88 rated squad with three or four Tots cards and the rest like 81s and 82s. So that's like how all the squads are looking at the moment. I think if you actually check on some of the cheapest solutions for some of these 84 rated squads, actually the way that Footman is showing this is it's like, you buy two Tots cards. Let's look at this 87 squad for DiBala. 138K, what's the cheapest way to do it? Yeah, Lautaro Martinez, Muriel, DePaul and DeVry and then a bunch of 78s, bro. This is how SBCs look right now because of the way Tots fodder is so cheap and just packable from being in packs, but how also the lower tier fodder market is just up so much. So that's crazy to see. This is how a lot of SBCs are looking right now at the moment, but that could be a Cruyff SBC today hopefully around the two to 2.5 mil or I think realistically in the two to 2.5 mil range but hopefully under two mil like 1.5 would be great as a card a lot of people would wanna get in this game. Now I don't know about an SBC player, of course we have no vote ending today. I was expecting another objective player yesterday but maybe that'll come today on Sunday as we got the milestones. I still think we're due a footies favorite objective and maybe that will come out today. Maybe they only want us to have Pinamonte this week as we're grinding through all these other gameplay objectives we will see. But also let's talk about the market, right? Because stuff continues to drop and there's one point that I wanted to make regarding some of these higher tier Tots cards specifically Neymar. And this is just something that throughout this year of FIFA 21 has been honestly one of the best and most consistent ways that if you're a top tier trader to make coins on panic selling. Whenever we have promos that are coming or the second day of a promo after cards are put in packs, people expect cards to drop more that next day with content and you know you see a lot of panic selling, right? Take a look at this Neymar, 1.9 mil which is kind of what he was over two mil last night. He was one nine and went back up to two mil and then this is Saturday panic selling right into the content drop because people are like oh my goodness he's gonna drop today that's gonna be more preview packs. People are gonna be selling him off. He drops all the way down to 1.7 right before the content drop and then instantly rebounds back to 1.5, 1.9. We didn't have the best preview packs yesterday so it didn't supply the market that much. It's a very rare card and you could just tell that a lot of these undercuts were panic selling. This is one of the ways in FIFA 21 and especially going into FIFA 22 like the way the market moves now and the way EA does things you have to be in and out of the market so fast unless you're investing in SBC fodder EA does not want you holding cards for long because they keep putting new ones out and that pushes cards down, right? And on those new cards people are always worried about their prices dropping and you see fluctuations like this. You might see more fluctuations like this on today on Sunday, right? With some of the other TOTS cards that are impacts or maybe even some of these cards that are in summer stars that people are selling off out of the weekendly, right? People are so afraid that the prices are gonna continue to drop. Again, especially if it's an impact card that they'll keep undercutting and undercutting and especially if it's a rare item that is still very highly demanded on the market. You have a ton of opportunity to trade. I cannot tell you how many times this year that I've flipped cards with fluctuations just like this on Saturday mornings, on Sunday mornings all the time. You see this panic heading into 6 p.m. and then a bit of a bounce. Now today on Sunday, usually you don't see it as big of a bounce because there's more people playing weakly on Saturday than there are on Sunday. There's upgrade packs. People are gonna be grinding the menus more than focusing on their footchamps games but again, just keep an eye out for some cards. This La Porte at 2.29 tonight. Out of packs, look at this, 2.29 but there's not that many listings to 2.43. You're already in the profit zone almost right there. You're basically break even and you see how much he dropped off yesterday, went to 2.22 then rebounded back to 2.43. If you see big panic sailing today, I know the Prem cards of course are gonna get hit big time. We're expecting more drops on some of these cards but I just wanted to kind of talk about this tonight because it's something that I saw yesterday with that Neymar and it continues to happen and it's gonna happen today. It's sometimes hard to find the cards and you know, you have to kind of learn, right? It's just a game of kind of balancing, looking at the supply, like La Porte's got a page and a half here. Like basically, this is glitched out now, the market is but when I just searched at 2.50, he had a page and a half of supply, 2.27. If I saw like an undercut down to like 2.10, you know, I might get interested or if I'm watching this card and right before 6pm, he's like 200K flat and you know, there's only one page or one and a half pages to 2.20 or 2.30. Might have an opportunity for a quick flip, right? That's the kind of stuff that I would be looking for, not just on the Premier League cards because if yes, Premier League cards out of packs are gonna be dropping down a lot today because of that weak and weak sell off from people that bought them, you can see already. Kane was 2.50, 2.40 earlier today. He's dropping down, Cavani is down. Sterling under 800K, he's dropping. Ferentura is 95,000 coins. You look at the path to glories. Pogba is not down that much, Firmino is down a decent amount, Chilwell's dropping, especially some of these cards that so many people bought up for this weekend, like Chilwell, like Laporte, like Calvin Phillips, Summer Stars, those are the ones that are gonna see probably pretty sizable drop offs just because of people selling them out of the weak and weak team. Daventon Sanchez as well, another card that'll be dropping a lot. And of course, again, I mentioned this panic because there's a lot of opportunity to trade in it. I know you guys may not be trading right now because it's July, it's August now, right? But Rashford, 4.75, right? Take a look at this. Take a look at this card, 4.75. He was like 5.30 yesterday. What happened with his price? He went to 5.30, went down to 4.30, and then rebounded back up to 5.00, and now he's kind of going back down, right? Maybe today, if you see him go to like 400K, you're like, all right, he might go back to 450. Might have a 50K upswing as people are still doing the weekend league, still a very rare, popular meta card. So I just wanted to point that out, even though I do expect prices to slide down today, if you're trying to trade and make coins, now's a good time to practice, right? If you want to learn for FIFA 22, I think this is going to be one of the ways it came to be something that was more popular this year and a better way to make coins this year. But I think that's just going to compound as we go into FIFA 22. So watch out for that market today. I'm honestly just expecting a lot of prices to kind of stay the same or maybe slide a bit, especially on these top tier ones. The Mbappe at 1.5, Messi's under 800 now. The Neymar is at 1.9, Veran was 6.99 earlier. Some of the Summer Stars cards, they move around a lot. They're actually pretty good to trade with. Like this Ronaldo was 3-2 earlier. He went down to 2-9-2 and I saw him at 3-1-6-2, 3-2. I think that these cards will come down again. People are going to see again how these prices are just continually dropping on the cards that are in packs. But like this Ronaldo, this Neymar, this Neymar is so rare, right? And it's the 99 Neymar. People like it better than 96 because it's 99 rated and it's more colorful, right? Just watch out for fluctuations on these cards. He's only got what? Three cards, the four mil. If we look at the sales history, are there any sales up really high? 3-9-2, 3-9-2, 3-7-8, 3-7 flat, right? Look at this. Content drop earlier on Saturday, 3-6-9. He sold at 3-9-2 later on. So again, it's all about the panic selling and finding those dips and then finding those rebounds because you have tons of opportunities to have trades like that in the game. So I know I'm talking about trading and it's August and you guys are like, man, I don't give two cares about this right now, but I just wanted to mention that today because that is kind of what I'm expecting. Prem cards, still gonna drop off though. I'd be careful with it, right? Because that Prem demand is going to be lessening. A lot of these cards that people just bought up for the weekend league are already down and they're gonna continue to go down because that demand that people are finishing the weekend leagues, there's so much supply. People need coins. People need coins because they're paying insane amounts of money right now for fodder to go do upgrade packs. So that would be one thing that I would be cognizant of as well. But if you're trying to trade today, good luck, have fun and hopefully upgrade packs today are awesome. They're grindable and they're incredible. And again, if you wanna buy rares, I don't know man, buying rares right now and they're up so much, 1.5K, 1.6, 1.7, it just depends on the upgrade packs that are today. If you've already bought rares, then you have a decision to make. Do I sell or do I do SBCs? But 1.7K for rares is like, the upgrade pack better be really good. If I'm paying, you know, 14, 15, maybe 16K per pack, they do an upgrade pack. So that's the video for today boys. It's a bit of a longer one, but I wanted to make sure I got all the information there for you guys on a big day of footies Sunday. If you enjoyed this video, smash the thumbs up on it, comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe for new. It's been Nathan Fodercown. I'll catch you guys later. Peace.
