 Hey guys, this is Nate, AKA The Foot Account, and welcome back to the channel. It is a Friday on FIFA Ultimate Team. We have got to get some content today for this pre-season promo to keep things moving. I'm gonna talk about the content that came yesterday, how that affected the market, how rewards affected the market, and as well what type of content we could see today, because it's a Friday, right? Fridays are usually big for promo days. Now, it's weird that these last few promos, pre-season and summer heat, have both started on Wednesdays, but they've still, for the most part, at least during summer heat, the Fridays were still pretty high. We had a lot of SBCs, objectives that came on Fridays in the past few weeks during summer heat that were pretty awesome and pretty lit for lack of a better term. So I'm expecting more of that today. Now, there's a lot of potential content that we could get today, so I wanna talk about that first, what you might be able to expect today on this Friday in FIFA Ultimate Team. We've already got the best of, we already had a road to the final player that was released on a Wednesday. I think there are two options today for content that are most likely options that we could see today. Option number one, top transfers. We haven't seen anything related to the top transfers yet, but this could be a perfect day for them to include some of that. They said throughout the pre-season we'll be showcasing a selection of the most exciting moves of the summer with special player items in foot 20, released for those players after they land at their new club. So again, we talked about Timo Werner, we talked about Ziyech, Thomas Monier, Arthur, Pianich, like all of these transfers are starting to take place to form, there's a lot of rumors that are going around too for other transfers that could happen. I think that we might see, I feel like a Werner or a Ziyech would be like a, or Sanay would be like a top type of player that I think would be most likely to get in as a top transfer. Now, one thing that I would look for at the time of this recording, there is no new card or new, nothing added to the code, like a new card design for this pre-season promotion. I feel like they would have to do a new card design for our top transfers, unless what they were going to do is like give a version of Timo Werner, like a team of the season Timo Werner, like give him a Chelsea version of that team in the season. That'd be insane, but I would keep your eyes out and keep watching for Twitter. There could be a possible pack, sorry, not pack, but a card design that could come out. That would make sense to me for this. And the other thing that I think is very possible that we could start to see today or maybe on Saturday or Sunday is a Champions League showdown introduction because we are just about a week away from Champions League resuming. It resumes on the 7th and 8th. We have Manchester City and Real Madrid and then also Juventus and Lyon playing on the 7th. On the 8th, we have Bayern, Chelsea and Barcelona and Napoli. If I had to pick any of these four games that I would wanna see a summer showdown from, I think I would pick Bayern, Chelsea. My personal opinion, Bayern, Chelsea, I think there could be some sick cards for a Champions League showdown that they come out with. Now, again, talking about cards that have been put in the pack code, we don't see anything in terms of a Champions League showdown card design in the pack code as well. I would be very unimpressed and I think it's almost a zero likelihood chance that they release a Champions League showdown with the summer heat card design. I think they'll have to put out a new card design probably somewhere along the lines of like the purple and the yellow that they had been advertising. I just don't think they can use the same card design for Champions League, so. But I would watch out for that card design possibly being added to the code. If you see that, you know, maybe this morning or maybe a Friday night, that would be an indication to me that a new Champions League showdown is coming and these are big, right? These are pretty big because they get pretty big boosts. These guys are getting boost every single time they move on. Now, they've already gotten a one-time plus three-stat overall boost, but they're gonna continue to get boosted each round that they advance in the remaining UCL and Europa League side. So it's actually kind of interesting if you take a look at this, a guy like Valverde or a guy like Millie Tao would honestly have the opportunity to upgrade since these are still like play-in games, not like actual quarter-final games, because again, it's Real Madrid or Manchester City versus to be determined, and Napoli and Barcelona versus to be determined as well. Like Real Madrid and City and Napoli and Barcelona have like, they have like an extra upgrade potential. So that's why I really like that Valverde card because he has the potential to go to upgrade four times. If Real Madrid would go to the Champions League final and win the Champions League final, this Valverde card would go to a 97. So if you have not done this SBC, you got a while to do it, but this guy could go at plus four to a 97-rated card and be insane, insane in this game. So that's what I would expect today, either a Champions League showdown or some sort of a new top transfer player. I don't know if they would give us another road to the final SBC so fast, so quick. They're putting out content. Today on FIFA All-In Team, on Thursday, we had a pack SBC for a rare electric players pack. We had a 90-plus team in the season guaranteed non-repeatable pack, and then we also had the 82 to 88 and 81-plus upgrades, and I got to talk about these, and this is what I want to transition into talking about what happened yesterday on the market a little bit too, because while the content today is what we focused on the beginning, the stuff that happened yesterday, like they're releasing this type of content, right? With the promotion that we have going on right now, it's not the same with these upgrade packs that are out. It's not the same as it was during summer heat, because during summer heat, you had tons of 84, 85 through 88, 89-rated informs and special cards that were in packs because they were, you know, it was the best of batch and they had all those informs and other special cards that filled up packs and made it fun to open up packs and to do upgrades because you could do an 81-double-plus and a card that was 84-rated, like maybe Lautaro Martinez, maybe his team of the group stage was in packs, so instead of getting his 84, you got his 86, but right now with only 52 cards in packs and only very high tier items in packs too, like no pack fillers like cards, you know? You guys know what I'm saying? There were hundreds of special cards in packs during summer heat and now we have 52. The probability of you packing one of these cards is so low, like it's not even worth trying to grind the 81-double-plus upgrades or the 82-88. There's only one card out of this entire set that is pre-season best of right now that you can pack from the 82-88 upgrade and that is St. Maximans' foot birthday card. That's the only one you can pack out of the 82-88 and this SBC was incredible for grinding and crafting SBCs that were out at the time during summer heat. The potential is so big with these two, right? The icon moments SBC, this icon upgrade, prime or moments icon player. If we had cards in packs that we could grind and craft and get higher-rated, this would be so fun because you'd be able to do this SBC just like we did prime icon upgrades during summer heat, right? When you had all those other special cards in packs, it was actually feasible to try to craft these SBCs and to do them and now we're just sitting here like, man, there's really no point in opening these upgrade packs since they're out right now. Technically, the only reason you'd want to open them is if this 90-plus TOTS guaranteed was repeatable. It is not repeatable. It's one time. You can do it. It's a tradable player. I hope, and I hope this is what happens, this is what happened last week, right? They put out that any TOTS guaranteed SBC and it came out the first day as a non-repeatable SBC. Then the next day, they took it away and put out a repeatable one. I hope the same thing happens this week and tomorrow or today is that they take this SBC away, they change the timer on it so it expires at 6 p.m. today on Friday and they put out this exact same SBC with the same requirements and make it repeatable. Then, 82-rated squad with a team of the week player, 30 chemistry. You could craft that pretty easily. Of course, team of the week players are kind of expensive because of this and team of the seasons are as well, actually. So that's why they need to throw these other cards back into packs, the team of the weeks, the Fanta cards, the team of the week moments. You know, the list that we had from a couple weeks ago with hundreds of special cards in packs, even though we didn't care for half of them, for crafting purposes, they were immense. They were huge. We really, really, really need those back in the game, EA Sports, if you're listening. Please do that. And then, of course, we did get a preseason challenge, SBC today as well. I would expect more of those. But the reality, and this is a sad reality, of what is happening right now in this game is, all the stuff that is in packs, it's just incredibly hard to pack and nobody is really opening packs to try to get those cards, right? Look at what happened to these cards' prices today. These cards are in packs and they're going up in Bape's team of the year, 2.76 million coins in the panic selling. Before this guy was back in packs, he was down to 2.55. He was under 2.6. Now he's back up 200,000 coins because nobody's packing this card. Yes, of course, as you see here, you see a couple fresh ones that are popping up on the market. Of course, now, because this guy is in packs and some people are going to get very lucky and pack him. But there's really just not a lot of supply on these cards because they're just so hard to pack and I think there's so few people that actually want to open upgrade packs right now because you're not getting anything out of them. It's really not too worth it. I've seen some people on Twitter have really awesome polls and stuff like that. Like I've seen people tweeting me, Christiana Ronaldo, team of the year cards, which is dope, GGs, but seriously, not a lot of people are hitting those packs right now. It's just, these guys are so hard to pack. Team of the years were easier than ever to pack this year, like during team of the year, but that doesn't make them easier to pack now. The pack weight is still very abysmal on some of those. And if you go into the store and look at some of these packs, I don't think they even have promo packs out right now. They really don't. And if you look at the pack probabilities, it's just hilarious how they can get away with this, first of all, just getting away with doing less than 1%. That literally shows you nothing as to how low the pack percentages is for a lot of these cards. It's just so, so low that they use less than 1% as their metric, which is crazy that they're even allowed to do that. But I bet all these, if I opened all these packs right now, I would probably get one board or two board drops. And that's it. I've heard from a lot of people that the pack weight is abysmal. And that's why you're seeing prices rising on the market. You know, even this Conte, right? Conte, he's actually kind of maintained his price a little bit, but there was more panic selling when it was announced that team of the years were going to be back in packs. When the team of the week came out on Wednesday, this Conte dropped like an instant 100, 150, 200,000 coins and then it's bounced back up because of that same thing with Mbappe, like I mentioned earlier. But if you look across the rest of the market, team of the seasons, a lot of icons, I've been trading with a lot of icons in the past like day or so, these cards are up because people are using those coins that they were gonna go spend on doing icon upgrades and crafting SBCs or doing upgrade packs or maybe trying to rebuy their teams. People are going back out and buying their teams because there's really not much to do in this game and it's just causing the market to go up. There's new rewards in Weekend League so that might inspire some people to play more Weekend League with just Tots cards being in rewards and nothing else. So that maybe is a small W, but so far, honestly, the first two days of this promo with the stuff that is in packs and the content in the menus has been fine, right? They put out the upgrade SBCs, Alverde is a dope SBC. I mean, we have a very small objective that we can do to get rewards in FIFA 21, which is sort of nice, but the menu content right now is lacking, right? The menu content is lacking and it kind of sucks. It kind of sucks and hopefully that does change today. I think it will change today. I think we will get some sort of good content from EA Sports, but again, it's all in their hands again. I did trade with a lot of icons today. I kind of had this urge, right? The urge kind of clicked. I said, yo, one of my goals this year, especially in the last couple of months as I really slowed down in trading, I said, I want to hit 70 million transfer profit and I ended up doing that today. Literally last night, I decided I was like, all right, I needed about 800 or 900,000 coins or transfer profit to give me up to a million. And I literally was last night, right after I finished recording this video, I was at like 15,000 of transfer profit, traded for like two to three hours today, flipped about 25 icons, I think it was, and bang. We are up to 70 million transfer profit on the year. Honestly, boys, this was some of the most fun I've had trading in a while. A couple of random cards still on the transfer list as well, but it was a blast flipping a lot of these icons. It really was. Now honestly, the deals pop up all the time. So if you're somebody who likes to trade with icons, the deals out there are plentiful and a lot of these cards, I bought before rewards as well. I bought, what did I buy before rewards? I bought this Raul at like 145 before rewards. This kind of borrowers at 307. I bought this at 420. I bought this, he's even higher now. I bought him at 429. What else did I get? I bought this at 445, bought this at 428. Bought this at, I think this is also at like 420. So a lot of these cards are fluctuating around a lot. I'm really liking the middles and the babies because they're out of packs but people will panic sell them at some points. So if you're looking to trade, watch today, market movements that you could see today, people are just constantly panic selling every time we get a new content drop each day. So today on Friday, what you could look for around the content drop time is just watch for panic selling on icons. If you've got some coins, you're trying to trade or maybe you want to buy a Team of the Year card or a Team of the Season card. I'll say you want to buy a Team of the Year de Bruyne who I think is up at like 2 mil after he was panic sold because people knew his card was getting back into packs. Yeah, he's up at 2 million coins exactly. Watch for some panic selling as we head into the 6 PM timeframe today because that is a very common thing that happens on Fridays because people know that, hey, big content usually comes on Fridays. So watch out for some panic selling related to that. And maybe you can find some deals today because there will be a market rise from tonight headed into the evening. There might be some more panic depending on what EA puts out. I would not expect a lot but then I could see after that or I would highly expect a nice rise in the market after maybe a slight bit of panic selling as we head into 6 PM UK today. This was the other news this morning. Sanchez got his upgrade from 92 to 95 and this card looks unbelievable. I'm not sure how his finishing isn't 99 but he's got 99 shot power, 99 attack positioning, 99 volleys, literally everything is dark green in everything but defending, right? I mean, 93 composure is great. His passing is fantastic, agility and balance. Aggression at 96 is ridiculous. So I'm gonna have to try this guy out in the Weekend League. I'm gonna have to pair him up with Ericsson and Zlatan when I can get re-qualified because that card looks insane. I don't know if any of you guys are using this card this weekend but you're gonna have to let me know how he is because this honestly has like a Ben Yetter type feel to me without the five star weak foot with the pace, the agility and balance. I know there's a lot of cards that kind of operate like Ben Yetter does now but this, I don't know, his build kind of to me feels like it would be Ben Yetter-esque in the game. So let me know how this guy is in game for you but his stats look incredible. So that is a big time upside for that one. You do have a few days left and some time to get objectives done for like Samedo or something like that but if they're gonna put a new, I transfer a card out like a Sane, a Ziyech or a Teemo Werner, I honestly think that might be some sort of objective that you would complete today. That'd be kind of cool. Especially if they put in more stuff related to FIFA 21 and objectives, I would be down for that but based on what they put over here in the website in the first two and a half weeks of pre-season, maybe we're gonna see, maybe we'll be able to get our engine chemistry style for FIFA 21 today as an objective. That objective will come out today. I don't know. I would maybe expect to see one of these as well on this Friday as some sort of objective for a FIFA 21 unlockable item but we need to get past these first two and a half weeks so that we can get to like the packs, right? This is important. We want the packs in FIFA 21. We don't really care about a kit or chemistry styles that much. We want the packs EA Sports. So we will see what happens today. Hopefully EA, you know, best case scenario for today is EA drops more cards and packs. They release a killer SBC, a fun objective for a transfer card and maybe one of those other FIFA 21 objective rewards. That'd be a successful day, I think, for this pre-season promo in FIFA Ultimate Team. So we will see what EA releases today. That's the rundown of how I think it could go market-wise and content-wise and then also just talking about the review of the content that came out yesterday in this game as well.
