 Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA the Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. Continuing our predictions and talking about the upcoming promotion of Footies, we have one day to go until Footies is here. I'm pretty excited for it. Hope you guys are too. And I wanna look at a couple things today on the market regarding some price movements. We're gonna look at some different cards today, look at some possible cards that could win Footies. And basically we're gonna be talking about the phenomenon. I don't even know if this is technically a phenomenon, but it's a thing that a really, really easy way to trade and a great way to trade in FIFA Ultimate Team. And that's basically called substitute trading or substitute investing. And I wanna kinda talk you guys through some of that stuff today. Obviously, if you're new to FIFA and new to trading, this is a perfect thing to learn. And it's also to keep, you know, freshen up on your trading skills even in this time of the year where a lot of us have our teams that we've invested for and that we've traded for all year where we have those teams in our clubs. We're playing with those players and having fun as much fun as we can with this gameplay. But I wanna look at some substitute trading because Footies this week is gonna bring some insane cards on the market as we've seen in the past years. And that's gonna cause some market movements. So first example I wanna look at and we can just jump right into this by me showing you an example and talking through this. This Bakioko card last year, FIFA 18 Bakioko was, you know, one of the centerpiece cards. So many people loved using this 82 rated card of his. His 82 rated gold card. People use that far into the year because he was just so very meta. The build of the game suited his card so very well. So obviously his card that people would use was this one right here that Chelsea at the end of the year at least they used the Chelsea French card. Now this Footies card was insane. I mean I had this in my end game team last year and you can think there's gonna be cards this year that are gonna have this exact same thing happen to them. Now before we go and look at some examples what kind of cards do you think would be affected by a brand new very meta and very OP French Premier League CDM because that's kind of where you would play Bakioko. You'd probably stay back in a CDM sort of role. Wouldn't really play CM for too many people. More of a CDM type player. Who would he replace? Well, probably Pogba. Probably a guy like Fabinho's UCL live card. Probably a guy like an icon, like a petite. Maybe a baby Vieira or a middle Vieira. You would want to try this card out. And maybe like an LR, you know, somebody like that. A CDM player that is from the Premier League. That's who this guy, if somebody has a Premier League team they would look to maybe get this guy and put them in their team or a French team. Something like that. That's basically what substitute is. So people would go and sell their cards that they have. So let's say if that exact footies card, if that Bakioko card came out this year into this market right now, what cards would take a hit? I think this card would take a hit as one of the most meta, most used Prem CDMs. Probably some of the season cards, like Fernandinho would take a hit because a lot of people are probably using this team of the season card right now. This card would probably take a hit as a CDM in the Premier League. And then you probably have a guy like Pogba take a little bit of a hit. Maybe a guy like Genduzzi and maybe some icons like petite, Vieira, I shouted those already. I'm probably forgetting one. But that's the kind of stuff that you'd see go down in price because people would go and get this card to replace the card they currently have in their team. And that's the whole substitute thing of trading. But it also works the other way. People have a ton of coins right now and this is the perfect scenario for a bounce back. And we're gonna start looking at a few examples for this year and what could happen with those cards. So you might see that Pogba Inform and of course you're gonna wanna focus on the Inform cards here, the special cards that are out of packs. And obviously we're not gonna know what's out of packs and what's gonna be in packs during footies. So that's kind of a tricky situation as well. But let's say this Pogba Inform is 345K right now. Let's say this card drops to like 300,000 coins flat or like 280 depending on what the SBC price is for that Baki Yoko if it would come out in this year's FIFA. I don't think it is. I'm just using an example once again to clarify. That might be an investment opportunity because somebody who goes and gets this Baki Yoko card might wanna go make a team and get that strong link between Pogba and Baki Yoko. So it kinda works both ways. People will panic sell the cards to go get the new one but they'll also start to build a team around that card especially with meta players in the game and they will go and the players that just were panic sold will rise back up because they link to that new card. So that's why substitute investing is a great way to trade on FIFA and if you can learn to trade like this, it's really fun and it works all the time. Especially in a market like this right now, you have to be wary of what the market is at. Obviously right now the market is very rich. We have a lot of coins coming off a ton of team of the season rewards. People still be packing blues in their guaranteed ultimate and elite team of the season guaranteed packs. So there's gonna be a lot of coins that continue to come onto the market as people are still involved in the game and another promo is coming up so that brings people onto the game as well. So that's kinda the gist of substitute trading. Now I wanna take a look at the three new examples this year where this could happen and today we're just kinda focusing on this one method because I wanna talk to you guys about this and also kinda talk to you guys about what could happen with some cards during footies. I think Rashford is gonna get a footies card because he's gotten plenty of cards this year. He's got a hero card, a player of the month. He's got this, obviously he has the headliner card. He got an SBC earlier on in the year. I think he's a perfect candidate for a footies card and this card's gonna be incredible. Let me tell you, I mean this card right here, his headliner card, look how much this was earlier in the year, 758,000 coins. Obviously now it's down here at 300,000 coins, probably gonna drop a little bit lower as he has a favorite card for footies but you're gonna see if he does get a footies nominee SBC. If they do footies the same way this year, let's say he gets nominated, that's almost a sure win. Manchester United, English striker with five star skills, a four star weak foot and can you imagine a plus three or a plus four boost on this card? He's gonna have 90 plus everything except for maybe physical and defense. That's gonna be an insane card. So many people are gonna wanna have in that team. So what's gonna drop because of this? Well, Premier League strikers, probably some of those team of the season, Premier League strikers that everybody loves to use, maybe a son, maybe Aguero, probably who's one that I'm missing, Lacazette. Some of those guys would drop in price because people wanna get that card into their teams. Now who is a, what kind of card would go up at the same time because of that? Well, who are you gonna link with this Rashford card? English strikers, Harry Kane doesn't have that many special cards this year. Jamie Vardy, you know, not exactly top tier. You're probably gonna link this card to a full Premier League side or maybe like an English icon, maybe use Michael Owen or Stevie G, you know, something like that. That could be a card that you link to this with but it's Premier League. People are gonna make Premier League teams. People are still using these Premier League Tots cards. So, you see them get Panic Sold? Let's see, let's say you see Son. He's one of the most hyped up or a bombing. Let's see, let's say a bombing is two million coins flat or like 1.8, like he just drops out of the sky. That would be a big time, big time drop in this card. Let's say two million flat. That would definitely be an opportunity. If you're somebody who has wanted a bombing for your team, I wouldn't say this is a great opportunity to trade with this card. Buy it for two million coins, wait a week and it goes back up to two, two, two, three. That'd be a good time to buy that card for your team. Just because the return on investment on cards this high isn't as good as some of the lower level cards. That's why I pointed out a guy like that Pogba before. That Pogba would be a perfect opportunity to invest in and to put in your team at the same time. Depending on what you wanted for and your situation. One more example, just so we can get the hang of this. Let's say Fabinho gets a footies card. I would expect Fabinho to win just about any vote that he's in in terms of midfielders. One of the most OP cards this year has a couple special cards. Obviously has this UCL live card. And if they give him a footies card with another boost, that's gonna be a ridiculous card. A lot of people are gonna have that in their teams. What cards are gonna go up because of this? Well, Brazilian, there's a ton of Brazilian special cards in this game, Premier League, Liverpool. Obviously we know we have the links to Van Dyke, the links to Robertson. But who's specifically gonna be panic sold because of this Fabinho card? Definitely Fernandinho-Totz. This card would definitely take a hit. If Fabinho did get a team this season card, I would expect this card to take a hit. And I would also expect it to rise right back up because if you need a strike force, a CDM pair, I guess that's not really a strike force. That's a strike force that's like a wall in the back with your defenders. Two Brazilian CDMs that would perfectly link up in your Premier League team if you were in a hybrid or whatever, Fernandinho and Fabinho would be those two guys. If you were like a 4-2-3-1 type player, which a lot of people use in this game, I would see this card panic sold and then also have an opportunity to rise back up. One more quick last mention, Davinson Sanchez, I think has got a very good shot at getting a footies card. That card's gonna be nutty as well. Premier League centerbacks though, when it comes to elite Premier League centerbacks, you have Laporte Tots, you have Van Dyke, and you don't really have too many others, Flashback, David Louise and Sanchez. Those are kind of your top tier meta Premier League centerbacks. You could look for some PayX selling in DVD, but people are probably, if they're gonna have a Prem team, matches Sanchez up with DVD. So it all depends on what other cards are out there and it also depends on the price of the SBC. You know, if they release that rash for SBC, let's say the SBC costs 300,000 coins, which is the current price of his headliner card, you're gonna see a lot of those cards, especially in the million coin range, dip a lot. Like maybe a Lacazette Tots. People would dump that card to go try this Rashford because Lacazette's a million coins and you probably will get a better card in terms of value with the four star weak foot and five star skills if there was a Rashford footies for like 300, 400 and 500,000 coins somewhere in there. So that's what I wanted to kinda explain to you guys today about substitute trading. It's really good, it's great and you're gonna see a lot of this stuff happen during footies if they do shape it the same way. Now obviously they could put these cards in packs and then still you would see a drop off, but it would be interesting to see the kind of rise as in when there's an SBC, that SBC has a market value where it kind of, you know, it sets the market for that position and that player. Like let's say, let's go back to our Rashford example. Let's say their price Rashford at 400,000 coins. That's pretty cheap for the boost that they would give him. 500,000 coins might even be too cheap as well. But a guy like Lacazette, you know, that's gonna really put a price tag on him and people are going to really revalue how much of this card is worth in the game because you would have that new Rashford on the market with arguably better stats than this card, most likely or at least close to it and stuff like that. So that's a really interesting thing with SBC is based on just the card being on the market is the SBC carries a price tag and then the whole market around it kind of has to decide, hey, how much do we value these other players instead of this SBC that are in the same position, same nation, same league, stuff like that. So to some of you guys, this might have been pretty basic. To some of you guys, this might be something that you have known for a very long time and you've done substitute trading throughout the year and you already know how to make coins from that kind of stuff. That's awesome, that's great. It's good to refresh once in a while and talk through some things, but I think this is gonna be a very prevalent way to make coins and also, if you have your eye on somebody like Lacazette or like an Aguero or like a Hyunmin Sun or a Bamyang team in the season card, Footies might present you with an opportunity to get one of their cards at a very, very cheap price. Not very, very cheap, but a discounted price as Footies SBCs will be coming out, boosted players will be coming out and it all depends on the SBC value what happens with some of these card prices. So if you're eyeing any of these really high level strikers for your team, some of these Footies SBCs could present a buying opportunity for some of those cards. I know again, you're probably like, yo, Nate, why are you talking about Footies investing? This isn't really investing, this is kind of, you can invest, you can make some coins off of this if you want to, but the real reason to do this stuff right now, at least in my opinion, is if you're eyeing one of those cards for your team, getting in the panic cell, buying that card in the panic cell when an SBC comes out, like even if Fabinho comes out as a vote or Davids and Sanchez or Rashford comes out as a vote, people are gonna be thinking, oh man, this Rashford SBC is coming, I gotta sell my whatever primarily striker card. You're probably gonna see some panic cells start to happen even before that Footies winner SBC is gonna come out even though we can probably guess who it's gonna be in some cases. Now again, this is all based on if EA does Footies the same, if they do drop some sick cards into packs, there will be some similar market movements, but it probably won't be as centralized and it won't be as easy to pick it out right away because it's all gonna happen kind of right at once when those cards come into the game, when we see price points, and it'll be almost like a usual Friday of cards coming in packs, panic cell beforehand, panic cell when the cards come out because the cards are insane or whatever. So just wait until Wednesday to see what we get and see if it is actually structured the same way as in years past, but I wanted to kind of bring you that video today because I wanted to talk about some of the stuff. It's honestly kind of reminds me of, if we really think about it, it kind of reminds me of Footness. There's a lot of substitute trading that goes on during Footness because player SBCs come out dropping the price of one card, but then obviously people are in the middle of FIFA, they're buying teams, they're putting together squads that link with these and substitute with some of these new SBC cards on the game. So that's a good thing to watch out for. And of course, what is a foot accountant video without checking out some of the cheapest players by rating? I always forget how big this page is. It's not big enough without my facecam on the side, but some of these cards have risen back up a little bit. So if you guys stopped your club, like I mentioned in yesterday's video, GGs, I saw some 88s that I got for like 23,000 coins. I got some 89s for 32, some 87s, a plethora of 87s under 20K, and a bunch of 86s for around 15K as well. So if you stopped your club, put some on your transfer list, GGs for you. It's gonna be a big week of SBCs, hopefully, hopefully some really, really sick cards we're gonna find out in a day or so. But again, I wanted to bring you guys this video today just to talk about market movements and to kind of teach you guys, put some methods out there on the FIFA Ultimate Team market.
