 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. It is Monday and it's a big Monday. This week is one of the biggest weeks on FIFA Ultimate Team, especially earlier on in the game. Our first massive, massive promo of the year with things that just changed the market for the rest of the year. This promo literally changes the market for the rest of the year. You know what it is, it's Black Friday. So this Friday, we're gonna have Black Friday coming, all sorts of content, all sorts of SBCs, the first lightning rounds of the year. And I wanna talk about all that kind of stuff this week. Basically, this is the market outlook video that we do each week where we outline the content and some of the market movements that we could see come up kind of from a higher level. We don't go too deep into things, but we do kind of just kind of an informative Monday video where we get to talk about all the stuff that we could see this week on the market. Black Friday is the big thing. Obviously we know Black Friday is coming. It's gonna be here on Friday. The store is gonna be active. The SBC section is gonna be active. All types of stuff on this game, it's gonna be popping off. Lots of content as it always is on Black Friday. But before we get into all that stuff, we'll talk about that a little bit later. First off, because it's earlier in the week, we need to talk about Champions League. Yes, we are going to have Champions League content this week because we have Champions League games. That's kind of how it works. We have Champions League games. This is match day five of six. And for some of these games, they really have big implications for a few different things. First off, road to the final cards. After some of these games on Tuesday and on Wednesday, we will know which players are guaranteed an upgrade because some of their teams will actually progress into the knockout stages just by the amount of points that they have in their group and the way that the group is laid out and the way that it looks. So I do want to kind of mention that a little bit. First, I want to talk about UEFA Marquis matchups because we always have UEFA Marquis matchups on the week of Champions League. So we could see a little bit of content around that this week. What they usually do is they take one game from Tuesday and one game from Wednesday, make an SBC out of it. So if you want to maybe buy a few cards to invest in, I would look at some of the bigger games on Tuesday, couple of the bigger games on Wednesday. Tuesday, we have Juventus and Athletical Madrid. That seems very possible. We also have Real Madrid and PSG. So I would see either of these two being in the UEFA Marquis matchups as the first squad. Second squad, I would probably say, is either Napoli in Liverpool or Barcelona and Dortmund or maybe even Valencia and Chelsea, possibly one of those two. But those are kind of the five that I see being in Marquis matchups this week. If you want to make some investments, just basically look on the market and stock a few of those players from those clubs into your club, that would be the best movements there. And then also, I always think it's a good shout to stock up on some of these UCL Rare cards. I mean, it's 750 coins for some of these 81 Raiders, especially if they're from teams that you're looking at like Milner, 1.1K, Zelinski, 1.2K. And those could be very needed for a Marquis matchups SBC if they require somebody from Napoli or Liverpool and they require a couple Rare Champions League items. So even doing a little bit of a club stock on some of these, I'd be careful with the 82s. I'd be careful with the 83s as well, just because we have those cards a little bit inflated, just a little, not terribly high, but just a little coming out of this week. So maybe pick up a few of these stock in the club just to be safe on that stuff. But that's kind of the way that I'm thinking for Champions League. I want to talk about the road to the final cards as well. A lot of them actually dipped pretty low on Saturday night of this week. I want to use this guy as a perfect example because I actually have an on my transfer list right now that I picked up for 354,000 coins, 354,357, somewhere in there. I got a nice low deal. That wasn't his absolute lowest on Saturday, but I got a nice deal. And a lot of these cards were panic sold this weekend, but I knew they were going to rise into the week as they were going to be hyped up again for Champions League games. So if you bought any of these cards on Saturday night, there's still a possibility early in the week this week. Maybe it's right when this video comes out on Monday and you're thinking, hey, maybe some of these cards are still low. Go check these cards out on foot print graphs, see if they are still a little bit low. And especially the cards that you're going to want to look at are cards that are really on the brink of, are they going to get into Champions League? Are they going to go on to the knockout rounds or not this Memphis, the pie and Leon? They're a little bit on the edge. And I think that if he and his team win this, or on Tuesday, they play Tuesday, and they play on Wednesday, they play Zenit, the Russian team on Wednesday. So if they win on Wednesday, you'll probably see this card spike up in price a little bit because people might not realize that it's not going to get upgraded right away, but it's going to be hype around his name, hype around the game. So some of the stuff this week, you might see some of these road to the final cards move up and down just because their team won. Honestly, that could be a factor this week. That's why I picked up a couple of those cards. I'm already up. I picked up the DePie's at 3.45 or 3.44, something like that. So that was a pretty good deal on that card there. So watch those cards to rise up and make sure you sell them either Tuesday or Wednesday when they play, all right? Just make sure, I mean, just probably sell them on Tuesday or Wednesday either way because you don't want to mess with what is going to be coming on Friday, all right? Friday, Black, Friday. Now I want to talk about because some of the other days this week as well, EA has done a fantastic job of draining our clubs of coins this week with all the SBCs that have come out. And before we talk about Black Friday a little bit more, I want to talk, ooh, I have not seen that dynamic image. That's a nice dynamic image for Serge Nabri. I like it. But, David Via SBC, that's a very emotional player for a lot of people. EA requiring 240 or 220,000 coins for that SBC. A nice little coin stuck from EA there. GG, taking coins off the market. And that's what you've seen. We talked about that in a video I think two days ago on the channel. Does EA hate investors? That's what I kind of titled that video because this week they have been hammering us and hammering us with these SBCs to try to drain our coins before Black Friday. And especially they did it with this base icon upgrade SBC which actually is giving out which makes it even more of a coin sink because people are going out and spending the outlandish amount of like 600,000 coins to do this SBC. 620,000 coins for the base icon upgrade. Now, some people have made it worth it from the pack value that they have gotten back of unshakable baby icons. I will not be touching this SBC. I would not recommend touching this SBC unless 25 days from now you've accumulated enough unshakable division rivals rewards or just 83s and 84s in your club for a very cheap like you pack them during Black Friday or something. Or from just getting cards in your club from rewards. And if you don't do any other SBC and you have a bunch of other untradable so that you can do this SBC for like 100 or 200K out of pocket cost maybe buying a couple of informs then I would say do it. But as of right now, not a fan. Really not a fan. And this, I need to talk about this a little bit more at some point because this kind of overlaps with when the baby icons are gonna go out of packs as well. So that's kind of a little bit of an issue there as well but I would not touch this SBC if you've already done it. I mean, don't feel bad if you've already done it. Hopefully you've gotten a good poll but that SBC was a major, major coin sink headed into Black Friday this week. So I wanna look at a little bit of stuff from last year's Black Friday promotion and I need to open the webpage right now because this is very, very important information that I wanna talk about because this was huge last year. They blindsided us with some of these things called the best of team of the week. They put these cards back in packs last year. Some of the best of team of the week cards that we had had in the game. They re-released them back into packs. Nobody expected it of course and you saw these cards prices go down so much in the first two to three hours of Black Friday. Obviously Black Friday brings the first lightning rounds. It brings the first 50K pack. Well, we've already had 50Ks. It brings the first 100K packs onto the market. I think last year it says that on the, what day was this? On 11, 23, we had 50K. We had 100K and 120. Okay, so we had, wow, a lot of lightning rounds. Lot of lightning rounds, holy cow. They even started this early, 2PM. Wow, 9AM. They had lightning rounds like all day. So that's crazy. They're gonna have lightning rounds all the time those first couple of days. Even later on in the promo as well. They had like random lightning rounds. Crazy, one hour global limit, that's nuts. So they're gonna have a lot of packs this Friday and I think they're gonna do this again as well. I think they're gonna throw in the best of team of the week. And I'm honestly a little bit skeptical because they have barely supplied screams. They barely did any like pack supply SBCs during that promo and they barely supplied road to the finals as well. I think there's a very high chance that instead of best of team of the week it's going to be best of FIFA 20 and they're gonna throw in some road to the final cards and they could throw in some screen cards along with some of the best of team of the week cards as well. So if you guys have Informs, a lot of them have dropped in price already. I wanna go take a look at some of these team of the weeks. But if you guys have like an Inform and Bopay, again like last strike, like an Inform Messy, I could see him and they have, if you think about this last year, let's look at this guide again. These were literally the best Informs that we had last year upon Black Friday time. We had Suarez, Mbappe, Neymar, Hazard. Those are probably the top four and then Levandosky or maybe Royce as the top four or five Informs. What do we have this year? We have two Levandoskys already. We have Messy. We have Ronaldo. Ronaldo in this week's team of the week. We have a Hazard. DiBala, where's that Inform? Mbappe's Inform as well, Griezmann. There are a ton of De Bruyne Inform, Ole Mane's Inform, Mertens of course, like last year as well. There are tons of Informs that could be included in this best of promo. So wow, looks like Mertens. People are thinking that Mertens might be in again this year. 482K, that's a massive drop off, but I think it's almost warranted. He was 470 earlier today as well. I'm gonna go on record and say that it's almost warranted and if you guys haven't sold these cards, I know you're taking a big hit on them probably, but I would be skeptical because these cards could very well be re-released back into packs because EA needs to sell packs and this is one way that they did it last year and I think they're gonna back up on that this year and go even bigger and better than they did last year with putting cards back into packs to make people wanna go spend more points on Black Friday. So again, right now you see a couple of just 35Ks and 45K packs here in the store and this is some of the most promo packs we've had all year. Makes sense though because they put out this icon SBC and they're trying to, you know, people are like, wow, I did three of those, I don't have any coins left. Let me go spend some more money on packs. So that's a possibility for those being in there as well. But again, this week, Black Friday, UCL content, I would, you know what, to be honest boys, I would not be surprised if we got another flashback SBC because basically right now EA is dumping the entire bucket of SBCs at us. We're getting almost an SBC every day. We didn't get an SBC today, which is no content Sunday, which seems to be kind of a theme, but they've thrown us, they've thrown us that Polinium SBC, which was pretty good value actually. We had another flashback SBC, who I'm forgetting about right now that had expired recently. And then just a lot of these little Dink and Dunk SBCs that talked about the Konate that was earlier, I talked about the Surgeon Avery, even though it was a player of the month, they priced that SBC to a point where a lot of people would want to do it. They gave them a good dynamic image. A lot of people would want to do that SBC. And then of course, the base icon upgrade was the huge coin sink. That really dropped the market. And that's why partially you're seeing a lot of those informs that I was just showing, like I showed that Mertin's price drop. A lot of that has to do with people maybe selling their Mertins to go and do a base icon upgrade because Mertin sells for just about 500K. This costs about 600K, maybe a few cards in the club. That's how you're doing an icon upgrade SBC. So a lot of people have done those. A lot of those cards are gonna fall on the market. Now, if you're looking to buy a card for your team that is not gonna be in best of team of the week, like I'm gonna go on record and say that Alex Tellez could get in best of team of the week. But let's say somebody like Inform Fabinho is somebody who you want in your post Black Friday market crash team. And you want this Inform Fabinho card that he was dropped a ton, 180K with a shadow, 174. This guy was consistently selling over 200,000 coins. Just like two days ago. This might be a card that you would wanna pick up now. If it's a special card and you don't think it's gonna be put back into packs, maybe like a Scream Gamerro or a Scream St. Juice Day. If that's somebody who's in your squad that if you don't think they're gonna put Road to the Finals or the Scream cards back into packs, some of those buy times might be sooner rather than later because a lot of the stuff, I haven't looked at a ton of graphs yet, but I remember last year that some of the stuff actually started going up into Black Friday, especially if it was an out of packs special card. A lot of that stuff actually started to go up before the date because there was so much panic selling before that. And this is like the biggest panic sale that we have had so far in this FIFA because of that icon SBC, which has literally torched so many of these cards' prices. 174 for Fabinho is crazy. 177 with the shadow right there. So if this guy's in your team, I don't think he will get included in the best of team of the week unless EA drops a madness and puts a ton of cards in packs. So some of these special cards, if you have them in your squad, your post Black Friday Market Crash Squad, I would say go over here on footbin, look through, I mean, obviously, we haven't talked a lot about planning yet, but make sure you guys plan out what your squad, what you want your squad to be after Black Friday. If you haven't started thinking about that, really start to put some thought into that and start to whip it up quick because if you have that plan in mind before we head into Black Friday, you might be able to make some buys beforehand where it's actually a better time to buy and you just know what you're looking for so you're prepared for it. That was one thing that I really encouraged people to do last year. And I think it helped a lot of people. Going into Black Friday, knowing what you want to buy for your team, maybe reevaluating as an SBC comes out is important, but kind of set that target for your team. Make a concept squad and add up the prices on footbin, stuff like that. So maybe in that squad that you want to build, maybe Scream Hamas Rodriguez is included. Big card, he got the pace upgrade and he's basically as low as he's ever been right now. 255,000 coins, he is really low. 255K, yeah, that's really freaking low for his card. So maybe you watch this card early this week, maybe it gets panicked a little bit more, maybe you just actually go and splurge and put that item in your team because when we get closer and closer to Black Friday, people are gonna start buying up cards because other people are gonna say the best time to buy is before Black Friday because stuff on Black Friday gets bought up so much and whatever, if it's not going back into packs and it's an out of pack special card, like that Scream Hamas or it is another inform that's probably not gonna get re-released and best of, I would be very tempted to start thinking about pulling the trigger early on this week and that's one thing that you can just honestly get out of the way too. Like we're looking at this Scream Hamas, he's actually 255, not 270 as where I had set the price, 260 at the moment. So there's not as many people looking at these cards right now and that's also why it's a better buy time. When nobody else is buying, that's when you wanna buy because nobody else is looking at it, there's not as much competition and when people are buying, that makes the price go up. So if nobody's looking at the card, there's a lot of panic selling going on, that could be your in to buy. So for a lot of the out of pack specials, again Scream cards and Road to the Finals, wait for the Road to the Finals after this week of UCL just to see what happens, but maybe an inform that's not gonna get into best of a team a week, like I mentioned Fabinho or maybe somebody else of a middle or lower tier inform quality. I would say Kyle Walker's inform but that could get into best of, maybe Tellez, I know I mentioned him too. That's kind of on the fence. So, but the first most major thing is, plan out your team, think about what you wanna do, how many coins gonna cost you, how many coins are you gonna leave liquid for Black Friday and stuff like that. So again, this week, market outlook, I got into a lot of things there. We started talking about a lot of stuff. Champions League items, maybe stock the club a little bit with them. What's the cheapest ones right now in the market? They're probably like Discard, right? Just about Discard. Try to get some of the 80s and 81s, maybe an 82. Just chuck it in the club in case they require something that's like an 80 rated squad with a couple of rare Champions League cards you might see some of the 80s and the 81s rise for that UEFA Marquis matchups, SBC. Maybe buy some of the, some players from the clubs that could be in that UEFA Marquis matchups, SBC as well. We talked about Pimanti Calcio, AKA Juventus, how much are their gold cards right now? What is the cheapest Pimanti Calcio player? 700 coins right now for that. Maybe you can get one on bid for a little bit cheaper. Maybe throw a couple of those in the club. Or we talked about Atlético Madrid. We talked about PSG, Real Madrid. Those are big games this week. So just kind of get prepared for that kind of stuff. And of course, start to plan out your teams. I think that's one of the most important things you could see this week on FIFA because there's gonna be a lot of content this week. Don't think that since we're leading up to Black Friday there's gonna be nothing. EA has been putting out a lot of content. I mean, we got a Flash SBC that they didn't even tweet out. I missed it. I missed the Flash SBC because I was not on the game. I wasn't on Twitter. I was away for some of you guys that didn't know. I was away this last weekend. And I missed the SBC because I wasn't on and I wasn't there and they didn't tweet it out with their direct communication account. And they dropped the base icon upgrade. They dropped it at like 3 p.m. my time which is just like two hours after they usually drop content. So that was just weird. So EA is dropping content and I don't think it's gonna stop this week even as we lead into Black Friday. They're gonna try to suck all the coins that they can before we actually get to that Black Friday promotion. So again, big freaking week on this game. Hope you guys are ready. A ton of videos coming this week talking about Black Friday stuff looking at the market. It is a holiday. So we'll have to kind of play around that with Thursday being Thanksgiving here in the U.S. But your boy will be here, all right? Your boy will be here making some videos. We'll be having some fun making some coins. And hopefully maybe even having some packs to open with some SBCs that they put on the game as well. Hopefully they do. I'd love one of these re-release special cards from like a pack supply pack or something that they could put out. So we'll see what happens with that. Probably team week upgrades as well. We'll get into all that kind of stuff later this week. How to plan for it. How to print for it. What you need to look out for. But this was a thousand foot view market outlook video for this week. If you enjoyed it, smash a thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe to the channel. If you are new, it's been Nate, foot accountant. Catch you guys later. Peace out.
