 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. We've only had these World Cup hero cards in FIFA 23 for just over a week, with team one leaving packs and team two entering packs yesterday, but there has been an SBC pack added to the code that tells us a guaranteed World Cup hero pack is coming, most likely via SBC. I wanna take a look at when that SBC could be dropping, how much it should cost, and what it could be doing to the market, even as early as today. We could see prices impacted on these World Cup heroes as people learn about this SBC. It's already affecting the market. SBC fodder, people are going investing in it already. So I wanna take a look at all of that. And today is a very interesting day for the market in general, because we are less than a week away from Black Friday and the Black Friday promo. And as you may notice on the loading screen, the Path to Glory team two cards and the second set of the World Cup heroes actually leaves packs early. So we're gonna have some preliminary talk again about could we see some prices dropping today or maybe it's just a good time to go untradable with your squads just to be careful about the market in the next coming days if people really feel like they need the sell. And of course we have a lot to talk about with a little bit of a lackluster day of content yesterday via SBC's objectives, not getting all the swap tokens that we wanted to. And of course what could happen today on Saturday in FIFA 23. So if you're excited for the video, hit the thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Let's talk about this hero pack because I think this was a surprise to see this yesterday. I don't know if we expected it to be coming this fast. That's the surprise in all of this. When this pack code was tweeted yesterday, about like 19 minutes exactly after the content was dropped an 89 overall max World Cup hero pack has been added to the code. And that's what people are getting excited about. And this is an SBC that will be very, very in demand. I mean, you're talking about brand new hero cards that just got dropped on in the game in the past week. And we now have an upgrade SBC that will be giving out those cards. That's pretty insane. Now again, it is max 89 overall. So if we take a look at the list of the World Cup heroes, you have all of the World Cup heroes will be available to be packed from this SBC except five. Forlan, Voler, Papan, Lucio, and Jurgenkoller are the five heroes that are 90 rated or above that are in this game. So they will not be packable from this pack. Of course, we would also assume that the SBC Robby Keane would not be packable from this pack either because that was an SBC. And if they maybe even add another hero card via SBC or objective, that should not be in this pack either. Just the cards that have been released in packs that are in packs right now. And there were in packs last week that are 89 overall and below will be packable in this SBC. That's crazy. Right, think about all the great cards that you have in here. You've got the extinct smaller. This guy isn't even on the market right now when I'm recording this video. You've got, of course, the brand new JJ Acoccio. You've got the Yaya Turei card and everybody's favorite right now in fee for the Al-Owariyan World Cup hero. So this SBC will have tons of demand because these cards are brand new, they're hyped, and everybody would like a chance to pack them. And what we've seen from SBCs really earlier this year from the world or from the hero upgrades, from the icon upgrade packs, two things. The timeframe for these SBCs dropping. We've seen them on Mondays. And that's kind of what I would expect for this Max 89 hero upgrade as well. Monday seems to be the most popular day that this could be happening. But I do think it's gonna impact the market today and you will see some hero prices dropping. We'll get to that in a second. So two, the price of this SBC. What would it be around, right? Right now we do have this base icon upgrade which is about, I believe, I don't even remember what this SBC is priced at. 215,000 coins for a no rating cap base icon upgrade. The base hero upgrade that we had earlier a couple of weeks ago was 120,000 coins. Now a lot of these players are pretty expensive. If we sort by price, we've got a lot of hero cards right now that are above like 300K, right? You've got so many of these cards that are above 300K. Now some of them are still brand new to the market. Guys like Claudio Marquicio, J.J. Kocha, they're probably a bit overvalued. Especially Marquicio and Kocha because their upgrades are so small over their base hero cards. I think their prices are gonna continue to drop as they get packed and as we get closer to this SBC later on in the weekend. But this SBC can't be super cheap. I mean, the cheaper that it is, you have some incredible cards in here that are at a very high value that people would love to try and go gamble for. I honestly think that this SBC should be somewhere around 250,000 coins. 200 to 250K because that's kind of the sweet spot where it's still cheap enough to make you wanna try to gamble it and try to go after it and get it done to get one of these big players. But if you get somebody that's on the lower tier like Coler, Mascherano, Cahill, Uenberg, like there's plenty of cheaper guys in here too. Like yes, you could pack a Peter Crouch. Yes, you could pack a Jorge Campos. So I don't think it can be any more than 250K to be worth it for most people. I'm guessing somewhere around the 200,000 coin threshold and it's not gonna give out the best of cards, right? You're probably gonna end up getting Algebra, Dempsey, Campos, Cahill, Uenberg, which are still very usable cards. But of course everybody looks to the higher tier in opening a pack like this. So this is the biggest thing right now that is affecting this game. People are already investing. If you take a look at fodder prices on the game, 88s and above have started to rise. And if you take a look at their graphs even, like let's take a look at Achiqui, Kailor Nabas, 26,000 coins, almost 27K. The news of this SBC being added to the code literally made these cards shoot up right away. He was 25,000 coins getting packed a bit. All the 88s were down just a slight bit at the content drop yesterday with everything going on. And these cards started to get bought up. They have been invested in a lot. And I honestly think they're gonna continue to rise back up a little bit today. Again, anything that is like 87s are even up, right? These guys were 16K at the content drop. These 86s were 12,000 coins. 85s and 84s are still pretty low. But I think people are investing in the higher tier because A, that's what's in demand right now with ribbery, the base icons being still out. And Robbie Keane's SBC being very popular right now in the game. But also people know that this one is probably not gonna be that cheap. And similar to the requirements of the base icon upgrade that we have right now in the game, you have this 88 overall and higher player that's required inside this 87 rated squad. And that requirement alone has made 88 pluses go up a lot in the past few days. And just the fact that it's really easy to get SBCs done with a couple high rated players, then you throw in some middle to lower tier ones and you get that squad rating that you need. That's why the high rated fodder is being invested in a lot right now. So if I were you looking at this fodder with the prices that it is already, I would not be super duper comfortable saying, hey, go all in and invest. I would just say, be careful. If you think you're gonna do this SBC even as early as now, what I would say to do is go out and do a little bit of a club stock. Maybe you try to pick up some 88s on bid. Maybe you try to pick up. I still think 84s and 85s are looking ripe for more of an investment opportunity there. 84s in a low 2K range are pretty low. 85s and low 7s are pretty good investments as well. But for the higher tier stuff, I just, I wouldn't invest all my coins into it. Just stock some in the club. That way you can say you're ready if this SBC drops. It's not one of those situations where it looks like. Remember last week when 88s were like 20K and it was like, oh yeah, we're going all in because these are very, very low. 88s are up a lot, right? They could go even higher, right? We might have these guys going to above 30K this week if the SBC content is super duper good. But I would just be a little bit careful with investing in fodder right now, unless you wanna go all in and you think this SBC is gonna have so much demand that it's gonna make those cards go crazy. So have at it if you wanna do that. But I would just be a little bit careful there because the prices are so high already. It's kind of like, okay, what is the ceiling for some of these prices there? So that's the biggest news right now. And I think as early as today, we talk about the market side of things. I think you're gonna start to see some hero cards get sold off a little bit. And I think that is hurting some of the rise on these cards. Like we talked about on stream yesterday, some of these hero cards exploded. We saw it, right? Some of these hero cards exploded. Alawarion was like 670K around the content drop just before and he went all the way to 720,000 coins. Now he's back down a little bit to 687. And I just have to wonder a little bit, is there going to be some more panic selling on these cards today? Because some people will have seen the PAC code and they've seen the talk about this SBC and they will imagine that the SBC is gonna be today. I mean, technically there is a chance, right? It's in the code, it can come any day now. But Monday seems to be the most likely day because that's been the day we've been getting these big gamble SBCs. Watch out for some panic selling on the World Cup heroes today. If you'd like to quick flip these cards and trade with the rarity of them, you're gonna have a good time today trading with these. I'm gonna be looking to do some of that on the market today especially with some of the new ones that are really fresh and that people are still really wanting to go and try out. So watch the World Cup hero cards today in PACs and out of PACs. And then alongside of that, as we transition to thinking about the market as a whole and the market in general, are we going to see some prices, whether it's on Path of Glory cards or whether it's on your gold cards, are we going to see the market drop a little bit as people are starting to get, I guess, thoughtful and starting to think ahead and just think about it on a normal any year of FIFA right now in this game, the week before Black Friday. This is a big weekend where a lot of people sell cards off from their clubs because they know what's about to happen during the Black Friday weekend and that's what I wanna talk about today because I think it might be one of those Saturdays where we see some sell off on some cards but it all depends on what people are thinking about, right? The panic selling for this sort of the stage of the game and for what we're looking at for this next week, if people see this hero pack that's been added to the code and they're worried about it or if they've seen, oh my goodness, Black Friday is next week, there's gonna be tons of PAC supply next week, the first lightning rounds of the year, most likely the cards that are in PACs are gonna get absolutely destroyed if people start to worry and if people are told to sell because of dropping prices during the next week, then I do think that you will see the market drop off a bit today. I'm not saying that it's gonna be a crazy, insane drop off because I still feel like the market's semi-healthy at the moment, but again, we'll see. It really just depends on what people are feeling and how, I guess, afraid people really wanna get. So, in general, heading into Black Friday, it is always a good idea to be pretty liquid, especially, again, I say it with the gold cards, guys, because these are the cards that are getting packed so much and so many people are just upgrading away from these cards in their teams, even especially a guy like this Milit Tao who has gone up a lot because of the new meta switch, right, with the explosive and the controlled players seemingly playing a little bit better than the lengthy players or at least a better than they were before the patch, be careful with gold cards because I do think that there is a lot more of a drop off on these cards. I'd also be a little bit careful with some of your, even some of the new path to glory, some like team one, I mean, some of these guys have gone up in price a decent amount, but if people are talking about panic selling and a market drop and a market crash, these guys shouldn't drop that much, but if they do, it could be a place to actually try to trade with some of these guys and trade with them because they're gonna be super rare and they're alive and they're upgrading. So, watch that side of the market, watch the World Cup heroes, and again, just watch your general market because again, if people decide that they wanna sell cards, then you're gonna see prices drop off because when people get in that panic sell feeling, when they get in that idea that, oh my goodness, there's gonna be an insane amount of content or an insane this or that that is gonna make the market drop, people go all out and they sell cards and they drop and it goes crazy. So, just be a little bit wary of that. Again, I'm not expecting a massive market crash today, but we'll just have to see. I do think there could be a few drops and it's in general just a good time to be untradable. Also, be very careful with team of the weak cards, right? I know we mentioned it last week, talking about some of our Black Friday thoughts ahead of the promo. This Mbappe was like 2.2 mil earlier in the week, he's now 1.9, so he's dropping off a bit, but best of team of the week is something we always see during the Black Friday promo. I think EA would do that this year as well. It would be a great opportunity for them to do best of team of the week because they're stopping the new team of the weeks when the World Cup is out. So, be very careful with your team of the weak cards, especially the top tier ones, and those could be dropping in the next couple of days as well with that panic selling ahead of that best of team of the week stuff maybe happening later on in the week. So, that's what I'd watch out for with the market today. Let's talk a little bit more about content today on Saturday and Switchgear's there. First of all, we had a couple of leaks yesterday that could pertain to our content today. A dynamic duo between Ampado and Wilson are added to come via dynamic duo. Not sure if it's gonna be an SBC. Not sure if it's gonna be an objective. Of course, the last duo that we had was via SBC. So, this is out there. Might have it soon, but if you're a Welsh fan, boom, that one is there for you. Not a bad set of cards. Of course, right there, that Harry Wilson card looks pretty solid if those are the exact stats. Not too shabby. And then the other SBC that we have that could be today is the Pacey and Naki Williams card. Now, we saw this leak, we talked about it yesterday. We didn't get the SBC yesterday. We had the showdowns instead. This could be our SBC player that we get today. I would watch out for that. Or if there's any other leaks today heading into Saturday content, I do expect to see a player SBC today. That's been a pretty normal and a pretty consistent part of Saturday content are the player SBCs on Saturday. So, watch out for that. I guess the other thing we'd be crossing our fingers for today is more swap tokens. And I wanna talk about this for a second because we only had four swap tokens dropped yesterday and we were expecting more because this almost seems intentional from EA. Only dropping four swap tokens yesterday takes us up to 18 total tokens in the game right now, which of course is less than 20, the magic number of 20 that we need to get to 84 times, 20 times, three. And it just seems like EA does not want us to get this pack during this promo when all these special cards are in packs and they're wanting us to save this one or whatever. I don't know what it is. It's a bit unfortunate that we only got four swap tokens yesterday. The only other thought that we maybe have is that, hey, EA is just gonna space the tokens out and then maybe they're dropping more today, fingers crossed, right? But my hopes are not that high for that situation happening because I feel like, you know, we didn't get any more tokens throughout the week. Last week it was just boom, a bunch on Friday and then nothing. But hopefully that changes this week. So, those are the only tokens that we had yesterday if you were looking for more. This is all that there were. There's 18 tokens in the game right now in total, including the ones that are in season progress. So, yeah, it's kind of tough because we were hoping to have some more to grind for but the grind is looking a little bit slow as of right now. Now also today, and this is where I wanna talk about the PTG Path to Glory cards, we're probably gonna see some more movement on the Path to Glory cards. Of course, and this is kind of rolling it back and talking about content that happened yesterday as well, Path to Glory team two is looking okay, right? Yesterday on the game when we saw the leaks loading into content, we were like, all right, this team looks solid, there's some cool cards in here for sure but it's just not a super crazy hype, right? I feel like there's more hype for the World Cup heroes than there are for these Path to Glory cards, at least the set that we have right here and Kunku is extinct on the market at two million coins and these guys are kind of expensive. If you compare it to team number one, this team is more expensive but I think it's because we've had less act supply, right? Again, we talked about it in yesterday's video leading up into today. These guys were just all, they were set up to be more expensive because there was so fewer saved up packs yesterday than what we saw last week and I'm taking a look at this Kyle Walker card right now. I bought three of these earlier at around 640 to 650. He's up to over 700,000 coins. These guys are mad rare. They are super duper rare and they are very fun to trade with because they fluctuate a lot. It's just all about the timing. Alejandro Gomez, right? Papu Gomez, he has three pages, four pages of cards right now on the market, right? Very, very rare on the high tier. Goretzka is another one. Crazy expensive card. Yes, he's German. Yes, live item. Yes, Goretzka's card looks absolutely insane. Only two pages of this guy on the market right now and as he sits, I mean, I'm even interested in looking at this guy for a potential flip. He looks super duper rare and he's getting down here below 1.1 million coins. He was the actual cheapest in the first hour yesterday at like 920K and then he of course rose up a lot. So your expensive cards are really rare but some of your lower tier cards are also rising up at price. Christian Romero, Kutir Romero. Why can't I find this guy? Let me search Romero, spell his name wrong. I got him in Pulisic mixed up with the spellings. Kutir Romero was really low earlier a couple hours ago. He was down to 135,000 coins. He is up to 161K. Again, what you have to think about with these live PTG cards is people invest in them just based off the nation. That's what happened with this Bruno Gimmerich card yesterday. People invest in this guy just because he is Brazilian. Yes, his card looks good, right? Yes, he is a very popular player right now in the Premier League for Newcastle and it's a fun card that people want to try out and it's a sizable upgrade but this guy was priced, was all over the place yesterday from the first hour being 300K up to 400 then back down to 275 then back to 320 then back down to 275 again and now he's up to 300,000 coins. These guys are fluctuating a lot but it's because people want to invest in the nation that these players representing for the potential upgrades as these guys get closer to the games actually happen which is tomorrow. First game of World Cup is tomorrow. It's so hype, so exciting and these live cards finally get to get in on the action. So yeah, that's why we had some of the other nations that were not represented yet with Pat the Glory cards. Of course we had Katara, we had Iran, we had Tunisia that were of course in the team yesterday but this team just looks okay, right? There's a lot of good cards in here and I think their prices are gonna fluctuate a lot today so I would keep an eye out for them. EA did make a mistake if you didn't see this Chuckie Lozano card yesterday that's because EA messed up and they did not put this guy in packs like they were supposed to. They tweeted him out multiple times and they showed his card but then he wasn't actually in packs for the current state of the meta. This card looks unbelievable, right? This is giving me FIFA 18 Chuckie Lozano vibes, 97 pace in the current state of this game. I mean, I wanna try this guy as a super sub if I'm being completely honest but at 220,000 coins he's gonna be a little bit more rare than what he should be because he wasn't in packs right away but EA did tweet out yesterday, later in the day saying that the incorrect version, the base version of Lozano and Bufal were in packs and that they're going to give back. If you packed a gold Bufal or a gold Lozano, I don't even know if Bufal is a gold or not but if you packed Bufal's base card or if you packed Lozano's base card you are going to get the path to glory item. Yeah, he is a gold base. You're gonna get the PTG item back later in the week. They're going to compensate. So we are actually getting compensation from this yesterday. I wasn't sure if we were going to or not because they were on the loading screen but they were not showing up on the market. So that is some compensation that we are expecting to see from yesterday's mistake from EA there. So that's kind of the situation that we have right there with these cards. But like I said again, watch the fluctuations today. They will be great to trade with their live and they're only in packs until Wednesday. That's a very interesting part of this whole thing is that they're only in packs until Wednesday. Some of them should rise up maybe a little bit. A lot of times what I'm seeing is these cards get rare in the late night, Friday night, early morning hours. 705 for this Kyle Walker. Like I'm trying to get him out here and maybe 720 because I feel like he's rare enough right now in the late night hours to maybe just maybe get a sale like 720. So I'm gonna keep holding on on these for the next hour or two but I'm definitely selling these before the morning. I'm probably gonna go into today feeling pretty liquid with my coins and not trying to do too much with them. Yesterday was a decent coin making day. We had some tax losses. We had some W's. We had some first-hour flips. I mean, the market yesterday, the market that did the best was the Path to Glory cards from team one that were pretty rare. Guys like Zakaria, Kim and Jay. Zakaria went from 240,000 coins, 250K all the way up to like 270, 280 where he is right now. And some of those World Cup heroes like Al-Owariyan, I think Diego Forlan and Rudy Valer where some of the biggest risers on the market yesterday like Rudy went from 880 all the way up to a million coins. Yeah, this guy was a million coins just at one point. He's now back down into the low 900s probably because of the pack code of the World Cup heroes BC being released. But there was a lot going on with those cards. There were plenty of opportunities to make profit yesterday and one thing that I wanna look at and talk about with you guys a little bit is anytime there is a promo Friday where the cards that are getting put into packs are not crazy hyped like yesterday was just an okay day of content, right? These cards are cool but what you see is when the content's just okay and there's not that much excitement the cards that are going out of packs the most recent promo before this and those most recent cards usually end up rebounding pretty well. Frankie DeYoung was in the low 500s like 530K he's up a lot. Cool to daddy, right? Was like 350, he's now 383. Carval Hall who I bought a couple of and sold him he's up like 20,000 coins. We already mentioned the Kim and Jay we already mentioned Arajo is up, Zacaria is up. These are the types of cards that if you see a promo Friday in the future where the stuff that's coming out does not look as hype as the stuff that is leaving packs by the stuff that is leaving packs or the most recent cards because that is the stuff that moves the most. Like Forlan I think and Rudy Voller were the best cards to flip yesterday because Forlan was like 780. We take a look at the graph Forlan was 790, went all the way up to 850 I think he was even close to 900,000 coins at this peak time and now he's back down. So with all this fluctuation on these cards seriously watch these World Cup heroes today watch the new ones, watch the old ones cause they're going to be fantastic to trade with and hopefully still semi-packable too from upgrade packs that they would release hopefully on Monday as well. And who knows maybe EA is gonna surprise us with something today and drop us a massive hero upgrade SBC on a Saturday. I would not expect it but hey crazy things have happened and of course we are in the week before Black Friday so we'll just have to see how EA structure the content in the coming days and we did have a store pack yesterday I think last week on Saturday they dropped a store pack as well so watch out for like that 30,000 coin store pack maybe we had the 50k, we had the 125k these in my opinion they're really not worth it I'm not gonna spend my coins on them since they're all intradable but you know if you do wanna go for the gamble you could get somebody sick in there from an intradable pack pull perspective so that's kinda what's going on with the game today watch out on your Path of Glory cards watch out for your World Cup heroes and keep a close eye on that fodder market because it is very invested in at the moment and so I would just be very careful investing in those but if you enjoyed today's video smash a thumbs up on a comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new it has been Nathan Ford Account and I'll catch you guys later peace out.
