 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Account, and welcome back to the channel. Team of the Year has ended. Road to the Final is now here. But we're gonna take a look at Team of the Year cards today, because that was the biggest story. Even with the new promo yesterday on FC24, the crashing prices of Team of the Year cards was something that really not a lot of us expected, and I want to talk about why all those prices moved. I also want to cover the new UEFA Road to the Final content with all the cards that are out, the upgrades, and how it works, and also why their prices are so expensive on the market as well. And take a look at more content coming to this game today. If you're excited for it, drop a thumbs up on it, and of course, subscribe to the channel if you are new. Let's quickly just kind of cap up Team of the Year really fast, right? I know that this last couple of weeks was crazy. It was a lot of time. And I think yesterday when the content dropped for Road to the Final, a lot of us were just like, we breathe for a second. We were just like, oh, okay, Team of the Year is now over, because it was such a chase, right? To get as many packs open as you can to try to pack Team of the Year cards, I did end up opening the 600k pack right before the Team of the Year's went away, but all I packed from that was Harry Kane. So I end Team of the Year with about 1.5, 1.6 million coins spent, a little bit more than that, actually. And I've come out with a bright Harry Kane, two, one Trent Alexander Arnold and a Kim Min Jae, and then three Olgas and an Ederson, which are no longer in the club. Thank you for putting themselves into SBCs for Alex Morgan and Sawa, right? So that's what we came away with from Team of the Year. And yeah, I just think that even without getting into the Road to the Final content for a second, it's just like, okay, Team of the Year is over. And I think a lot of us yesterday just felt like the hype on the game dropped off a little bit, because we were just tired and fatigued from all the pack spam and just trying everything that we could to try to pack a Team of the Year. So I think that's also put a little bit of a damper on Road to the Final, and we'll talk about that. But let's get into the content. Start with objectives. We're going to try to make this one a little bit quicker today, guys, because yes, there's a lot to go over, but I don't want to just belay with a point with the game being in the situation that it is. We had to road to a Final UEFA tour, which is actually really interesting. Usually we don't get cards for some of these clubs that you don't necessarily think are going to win the Champions League or the Europa League. Not saying that none of these clubs have a chance, because they absolutely do, specifically Benfica in Europa League. But Galeno from Porto, you've got Boscagli Dix from Copenhagen. Actually pretty nice links to some of the other Copenhagen cards that have come out this year. And then, of course, you have David Neres as well. This isn't a bad objective. If you find interest in this, it's not that hard to complete just a few separate matches to get it done. You can do that. So I have no problem with it. The cards aren't that insane. But if you're a fan of either of those clubs or any of those clubs, it is nice to have those. And then we have a puzzle completionist objective for SBCs that are going to be dropping in the challenge tab in SBCs. You'll be able to do one of those each and every day from February 2nd to yesterday, all the way till February 7th. And then you can get yourself some nice packs along the way and then a mega pack on tradeable for the group reward. So that was our objective content that dropped yesterday on this game. Nothing crazy, but kind of not like a daily login exactly, but kind of something to keep you looking at content every day. I think EA wants to kind of keep that daily login type of field going. So that's why there's another tiered objective that is out there. It's just maybe not quite as easy because it's going to be like we see in SBCs. The challenge SBC that dropped yesterday isn't very hard. It's a gold players pack tradeable, but it's not like just turning one player and that's like literally mindless, right? This, you need some non-rare golds for 22 chemistry. You got to figure out some sort of a build there for that SBC. But it's only 3,000 coins according to footprint and you can stack up some nice packs if you want to do that. Today also is the last day. I actually opened some of these upgrade packs yesterday for the new promo. Didn't pack any of the new cards, but just kind of finished rinsing through all of the, I guess, packs that I had left over even, which was only like 10 to 20 from doing all the spam for Team of the Year. So those upgrades are going to be expiring and that's kind of like the last of the Team of the Upgrades or most of the last of the Team of the Upgrades expiring. But yesterday, I mean, there really wasn't much in SBCs besides the big man, Joshua Kimmich. And this was a leaked SBC and it's actually one that's got a lot of hype and it's not necessarily for the specific stats on the card. The card stats are good, but it's got two playstyle pluses, very good playstyle pluses I may say as well, especially that over-the-top through ball. Four-star, four-star, high-high work rates he can play, center-definition mid-right back and center-mid, really well-rounded card. And he kind of plays, from what I've heard, plays above his stats in-game, but the real draw to this card, guys, are the playstyles, playstyle pluses, and the fact that Bayern are huge favors to go far in the Champions League. I mean, you're thinking about this card and the lineups that Bayern have and the matchups that they have. The potential here is for this card to go to a 92 in the next month, right? That's kind of the timeline. The second upgrades I think will take place after the second leg and if they, of course, win the first game or draw and then win the second one as well, they'd be advancing to the next round, which would get them a second upgrade. So this card could be a 92 in about five weeks' time, a month's time, like the second week of March. So that's kind of where the hype is with this. And also, since these cards have two playstyle pluses, since part of the upgrade path is qualifying for the final and getting a playstyle plus, if Bayern qualify for the final, which this upgrade wouldn't happen until I think the middle of May, which is when the semi-final rounds are played for the Champions League, this card would go to three playstyle pluses, which is confirmed on EA's website. They said themselves that, yes, Road to the Final Items will be the first in Ultimate Team with the potential to have three different playstyle pluses. Well, yeah, that's not actually true because evolutions have already completed that, but cards that they've dropped on the game that we haven't completed ourselves, that is true. So that's a little bit of the hype around this game as well. The potential upgrades, this card getting upgraded pretty quickly. And, you know, I would say as well, the reason this card has so many upvotes, while it's not maybe the most meta and crazy looking card, I mean, it's good, but it's not like insane. I mean, think about it, Alfonso Davies, all the team of your honorable mentions that were in packs, the Davies SBC, it's a craft, and you have Kim and Jae, you've got Musiala, you've got Kane, you've got so many different links that you can put with this Kimmich card, especially like, I look at my team, I'm like, he fits right in. So might as well do the SBC, it's a live card, and that's kind of where the hype is with this UL2 with Kimmich for sure. And why he's got such a high upvoted percentage, 81% on the SBC, and 450,000 coins. I think a lot of us have some lingering fodder left over as well. It's pretty easy to get this SBC done with. He does require three informs, and I've already done those squads. Got to get the 88 rated squad done, and then Kimmich will be boom straight into the club. So definitely watch out for some of those Bayern links. We're going to talk about some market prices here in a second. But let's first, before we go to the market, let's talk about to the road to the final team. Let's talk about these cards, in packs, because they're expensive, man. And we were a little surprised yesterday, right? When we talked about it a couple days ago, we saw the leaks, and we were like, are these cards really going to be boosted that much? Are they really going to be that good? And EA did a pretty good job. I think they surprised us a little bit at how boosted some of these cards are, specifically some of the cards that are very expensive on the top tier, like this Tony Cruz. This Tony Cruz got the absolute juice. Look at this card. Long ball pass and anticipate plus. He is four star, five star with medium-high work rates. This is an unbelievable card. 95 short pass and 95 long pass, 95 shop power. And you think about the potential of Madrid going far in Champions League. This could end up being if Madrid win the Champions League. He could be a 94 rated card with three play style pluses and five star, five star. Like this would be an unbelievable card, guys, right? And again, the rarity of these cards in the market, I think is due to the fact that there were not very many people opening packs. So the fact these cards are live, the fact these cards are not being packed that much, not that the pack percentage is like that crazy low. It's not really high, but I just think all of us are packed out, or most of us are at least, from grinding during Team of the Year so much. That's kind of why these cards are expensive and the fact that they boosted them up pretty good. I don't know about you, but I'd rather play with this Tony Cruz than like Oberdorf. Or I would even honestly say I'd rather try out Joshua Kimmich's card than Oberdorf. And I think that is maybe a little bit of the reason as to why some of the market dropped off yesterday, especially in those Team of the Year departments. But to look at this team a little bit more, Lukaku is kind of a crazy price. Like does this card seem too expensive? Yes, a lot of these cards seem too expensive, but I think at the point that we're at right now in the market with these cards being live, with them being very rare and with how expensive Team of the Years are, I think it's just creating a scenario where these cards are going to end up being really expensive because of all those things to consider. I think they're just going to end up being really pricey and that's how they're going to stay. It's not going to make sense. We're all going to look at these and be like, Gabrielle, he zoos for 3.7 million coins like almost max price. Like guys, for sure, these are going to drop off a little bit in the next couple of days. People get their champs rewards, more lighting rounds. Even though not too many people will be opening, there will still be some lighting rounds open and some tradable pack supply pushed out so you'll see the prices drop for sure. I would not recommend buying any of these right now for a longer term hold, even though these are live cards. A lot of people look to invest in live cards. We will be looking to invest in these cards at some point in the next couple of days, probably between Sunday and Thursday for sure, but there's got to be some drops on these cards for sure before I would look to invest in any of them. But yeah, nice team to be completely honest overall. Had a couple of price range updates. I picked up some Zambo and Gleases under 200. He's doing nice. I actually bought five Lindsay Horan's for 230,000 coins and I think the reason this card is going up so much right now is because of the rarity of it. But yeah, I bought right here on the companion app. I was out. I was like, wow, that's really cheap. I saw her at 300 earlier and she went all the way up to 300,000 coins. So I'm taking some sales there. But with these cards being that rare, that's just a shout to you guys to watch the market for sure on these cards. I think I still have a couple left. So yeah, 235 I bought Horan for. And she's right now on the market for like three at 297. I sold a bunch of like 302 to 303. So I'm going to try to get those out for right around 300k. I don't plan on holding any of these yet. Like I did mention, I think they can drop off a little bit more. Like here's the Zambo that I bought at 191. He's currently like two. He's really rare. He's 240,000 coins. So I'm going to sell a couple of those today, but I won't hold on forever. But keep an eye on those because they are live and people overpay for live cards. Just because they are live. And there are some cards like the Zambo and Guisa. This is his first special of the year. That's a pretty saucy looking card as well. Only one play style plus, but a decent item. So just be careful with the really expensive guys. But the lower tier ones, they look fun to try out. They look, I mean, pretty nicely upgraded as well. Marina looks to be just decent. Jimenez and Suley, those are some really nice center back options on a lower budget for La Liga and for Bundesliga. So honestly guys, a decent team, maybe a little bit better than what we expected, especially with the play style pluses. But of course, very rare as well. And the other cards like Gavardiol and those other ones that we looked at in the leaks that are not in the game yet, I would expect those to be coming either today or tomorrow in a part of a mini release. So watch out for those as well. Now we got to talk about EA's daily mistake. Because guess what? There was another mistake yesterday and it has to do with the store packs. I don't know if you guys saw this. I did tweet about it yesterday because this is another thing. It's like, what is it? How many days in a row is this of mistakes? This is the issue right here. The Supreme Icebreaker pack, which is an 83 times 70, which is an 87 times 5 also inside of that, guaranteed. 500,000 coins. When this pack dropped two hours after the content dropped, maybe three hours exactly, it still had odds showing that the team of the years were in the pack, basically just based off of the odds. And I tweeted this out and I said, EA, come on now. Like this is another mistake. But the reason why this was a mistake, and I'm sure if EA even comments on this, right? I don't even know if they will. It's kind of like the whole messy situation. They might comment on it. They might not. But this is what was wrong with it, right? Team of the Year players see 7%. Team of the Year icon, 5.2%. Read the fine print. Probabilities accurate as of February 2nd yesterday as of 5.59 GMT. So what happened was, EA refreshed the pack odds and the probabilities of this Supreme Icebreaker pack, which was out during Team of the Year. They refreshed it right before 6 PM when the team of the years went out of packs and then wrote that the finals came in. So it was refreshed one minute or less than one minute early and it showed the wrong odds. So of course after this showing, people started opening this pack, the 500K pack and me like, Nate, am I going to get compensation? It's false advertising. In my opinion, I really doubt there's going to be compensation for it. I've been checking Twitter. I've been watching. They have not tweeted from the FC account to say that this was a mistake. Will they? I don't know. They've actually been tweeting about a lot of the compensation situations this year. So hey, there's a potential that they could tweet about it, but I'm not thinking that it's likely because nowhere else in the game, like everywhere else in the game, it said, you know, all the road to the final lines were in packs. You knew the team of the years were out of packs. So it feels like a little bit of a stretch. If something does happen, it would be crazy because on this tweet that I tweeted out, a lot of people are opening the pack. And they're like, where's my compensation? This guy packed bright and Holland Gold. But yeah, guys, I think that's a bit of a reach. Again, it seems really random with compensation this year. Sometimes they're like, go the extra way to do compensation. And other times they're just like, okay, yeah, we're not going to say anything about it. So I don't know what they're going to do here, but it's yet again another mistake from EA Sports. Guys, the train of the mistakes is just rolling right now. And I don't know when it's going to stop, but that's why we're paying close attention to this game because you never know when you might be able to get team of the year messy from an 86-plus player pick, right? I digress. Let's talk about the market because I was able to make a ton of coins off this yesterday, but I know maybe not a lot of you guys were in that same boat. Team of the year prices went on an absolute roller coaster, right? And it all started a little bit before content. I want to talk about why these team of the year prices are crashing and why there was a lot of people panic selling yesterday on this game. So you're like, Nate, team of the year prices crashed? Tell me more. What happened? Let's take a look at some of these cards, right? These are the team of the years and they were extremely, extremely inflated. Let's take a look at Karchawi, right? Yesterday before the content drop, she was 2.8 mil. If we go back to Wednesday, she was still 2.3. We saw these cards as they were getting ready to go out of packs. Everybody was, like we mentioned in a couple of videos this past couple of days, FOMO buying. Fear of missing out. Fear of missing out on these cards before they went out of packs and they were going to go to the moon. Well, what happened was there was so much buying, buying, buying these cards went up super duper high and really, I wish I would have looked at these prices closer in last night's video guys because I did not realize how insanely high they were. I was so dialed into trying to pack my own team of the year. These prices were astronomically high. Like I was taking a look at Sophia Smith. Sophia Smith was 3. something million coins after she just got her price range updated. She was selling it 3.5, 3.1 mil. That's crazy. This card was 1.5 mil in packs just a week and a half ago and I think some of that inflated price action just caught up to these cards not to say that they got supplied a lot yesterday which I don't think they did but I think they just got a little bit too high in price and some people started taking the coins. I also think that with the team of Road to the Finals having two play style pluses and also being so expensive once you saw the content drop hit I think there were some people that were like dang that Tony Cruz looks good or maybe it was Lay out or maybe it was Anzu Fati they're like hey I might sell a team of the year here to go try one of these new cards out I think all of that combined and the big reason of the panic was just the snowball of people starting to take the cash on a couple of those cards and starting to sell and once people started to sell a few of these cards it was just a snowball effect after that because guys these cards people that have paid the coins and shelled out the cash to buy a team of the year they are closely watching these prices all the time I don't know if you have a tradable team of the year card you probably are watching the prices very closely it's been a very common question that I've been seeing from you guys in the streams in the videos throughout the whole entire week Nate, when to buy a team of the years when to buy a team of the years and of course they are the top dog cards in this game 100% there are very few cards better than these right the team of your icons the team of your cards themselves even the honorable mentions now you have a couple new road to the finals that are semi close but they don't come close to most of the team of the year cards so that's why there's so much demand for these but when people start to see these really expensive cards they have so many coins tied up in dropping on the market it's kind of like they just start to panic and there was a lot of people yesterday that started panic selling cards like Oberdorf was 1.4 mil she went all the way down to 890,000 coins she was like 870 at one point and then when people realized like wow these prices have dropped off a ton and these team of the years are still the top dogs in the game and some of the best cards in the game the card prices did start to rebound but really what it was was kind of a price correction because honestly guys though these prices were too high right like to scroll through a couple more graphs Jude Bellingham was almost 9 million KDB was 4.2 Roger was 3.7 I think I bought three Allisons yesterday for 550,000 coins after I saw him go from 740 all the way to 550 I bought three of them right here I sold two of them right here I still have one right now and that's mine listed right there it's 617 see if I get the sale I just went for the quick flips on some of these cards because their price drops were absolutely mental and these are some of the most if not the most in-demand cards in the game so I knew that there was going to be some bounce backs but I also didn't expect them to all the way rebound back to their crazy high prices that we saw like the Sophia Smith 3.1 or so million coins like right now Sophia Smith is 2.6 right so there were some crazy drops and some crazy bounce backs but overall the team of your cards are down a little bit and I think it was kind of a needed price correction for a lot of these like I bought Sam Kerr for 1.65 I bought the Allisons for 550 as I mentioned and to be able to buy those I had to sell my other honorable mentions that were already up so I took the cash on the Mooseyala I bought at 300 these Dionys at 530 yesterday was a really really insane day and even into right now has been a really really good time for making coins on the market but I know for a lot of you guys it wasn't exactly the case if you had Team of the Years now what's next for these cards right what is next for these cards because I still think that a lot of them are a little overpriced and I know I didn't mention this before but for Oberdorf for Millie Bright I think that the and even Team of the Your Icon Lawn it fall into this range as well I think that the Kimmich SBC actually impacted their prices a little bit as well and Team of the Your Icons were down and getting Panic Soul just like the Team of the Years just because there's so much hype for them as well for these prices going forward I still think that if you bought a Team of the Year like let's say two weeks ago a week and a half ago in this low point or even in the first weekend like when Roger was 2-7 went all the way up to 3.6 is Roger going to go to 3.6 again? Maybe but it's got to be a really couple of quiet days in this game I think for Team of the Years to get back up to where they were it's got to be quiet days in this game with not a lot of content and just a realization that these cards are top dog but guys I just I do feel like these Team of the Years are still very very expensive for a full Team of the Year costing 60 million coins like that is a lot of coins for Team of the Year cards for Impong 3.2 mil VVD still 15 million coins I know they're rare I know they were incredibly difficult to pack but I just feel like I don't know if they're going to have that same appreciation and value like the Team of the Years did last year I think this is more so like the years past where the Team of the Years went up as they went out of packs they stayed up for maybe a week or so and then they just slowly started to drop off especially as we get more evos this year more promo cards maybe even as EA and as these wrote to the final cards start to get upgraded themselves that might actually impact some of the prices but especially like next week with Future Stars I would say if you have a Team of the Year in your team I think you're safe to hold on to it there's going to be more fluctuations there's going to be more prices that move up and down there's going to be a little bit of that for sure but I mean if you're happy with the card part of the thing is too you got to enjoy this game right now if you spent a lot of time on the game to find the right price for one of these cards and you're just like not I want to use the Team of the Year because it's a freaking Team of the Year then enjoy the card for sure play your footchamps play your games but I still believe that these cards are really really expensive but I think they're like semi safe par some fluctuations in the next two or three days so just kind of take that with that what you will I don't expect more panic selling today but once again when people get in their minds that oh my goodness the market's dropping and they see these cards starting to drop there can be snowball effects kind of like avalanche effects on these types of cards because people see a card going on a hundred two hundred K like yesterday and you see those graphs we looked at just to look at one more let's look at let's look at Renard oh my goodness Renard 2.2 million coins I didn't have enough coins to buy this card yesterday when she was 2.2 mil right after I got off the stream I saw it she was 3.4 million coins went all the way down to 2.2 2.3 and then bang right back up to 2.8 like look at that man that is crazy but you see this right here he goes from 2.9 she goes from 2.9 all the way down to 2.3 it's just like a snowball and it goes way way way too far you hit a low point that's just way too low people say that's cheap I'm gonna go buy and then they kind of bounce back up so I'm not expecting something like this to happen again today or tomorrow or even during the weekend at all but just keeping on the cards because they are the best in the game they're top dogs as we say and there's a lot of demand but also there's people that are quick to sell them if there are some drops now the rest of the market the rest of the market is chilling you know winter wild cards great place to trade yesterday I was clicking around on some of the other parts of the market looked like a pretty safe place to be honest I mean some of the center mids because of the team of the years that we're dropping like the other versions of Roger like the ice and the fire those were down because the team of the year was dropping and stuff like that there was a little bit of panic on some other parts of the market too but for the most part the out of packs markets really chill it's the best place to trade guys 100% I'm gonna say it in every single video this week even a card that I shot it out yesterday on stream and in the video Adhyemi Adhyemi winter wild cards what is it right now things like 270, 280 he was too yep he was 230, 240 yesterday for a while what a rise there from him so that's the kind of stuff you can be looking through the foot bank graphs guys if you're like Nate I want to know what to trade I need coins after team of the year whatever budget you're on look at these out of packs specials look at Walker 500K Dooku 280 big rises there a card like Mookie LA you know could be a card that you trade with PSG Lynx French Rideback so low budget high budget that's the place you want to be there will be a lot of movements there on the market talking about fodder really quickly as well on this game fodder didn't really move that much yesterday but there was barely any supply as well I think we're going to see more movement on fodder today but 87's are still like 19 86's are still like 12,000 coins max price 85's are still 6 like there was literally like no movement 88's are down a couple thousand 89's down a couple thousand same thing with 90's and 91's but it's with 91 Holland and De Bruyne back in packs as those go lower that should make the 90's go a little bit lower too I just think that there's a little bit of a lessening hype on this game we're crafting the SBC's as people have opened all the packs during the team of the year prices of or maybe demand for doing the SBC's has dropped a bit especially with the SBC's being so expensive I just think that we might start to see a few of those fodder prices dip down a little bit but also they could move to again today because I believe the icon player pick is refreshing and I did do it yesterday so I can double check this myself I got I got Winter Wild Cards barns it was a really bad player pick it was not good but I want to see if it's refreshing today but it is the 88 plus it doesn't show for me but I'm pretty sure it's refreshing today you might be able to check on the web app if you have that so check that out but that could be refreshing today and part of content what else could be coming today Saturdays could be a player SBC day as we would expect Lautaro Martinez is the other leaked SBC player again the mini release we're expecting is Guru Riten Lucy Bronze and Gavar the Old which they were not releasing packs yesterday or anywhere in the game and yeah it looks like promo guys not a two week promo a lot of cards released a lot of cards released but we rate that wish we could have had maybe a couple more conference league cards and maybe even a couple more Europa League or women's cards as well but a lot of Champions League cards I love how they incorporated all these clubs into this and yeah I think Lautaro is the only leaked SBC right now but I would be expecting a player SBC today or tomorrow for sure and the same thing with the mini release and then the other thing we didn't have yesterday was an EVO for the evolution requirements for the hero striker EVO which maybe means it could be dropping today and it's a two place style plus EVO and it looks like Francesco Li for Lawn and Brolin might be some of the best cards to fit this and I think if I look at the top cards that have gone up on a foot bin I think it is actually some of these heroes yeah Brolin is up 25% Robbie Keane is up a lot you can kind of see those prices moving where is it like does Aldo Weyren fit this EVO I bought Aldo Weyren today and I sold him for 59 like literally literally called that in the video I sold him like right up here for 59 character buying him for 43 but he's kind of down and not back up he doesn't fit I think Francesco Li was actually extinct as I looked a minute ago yeah he's extinct oh because he's 42,000 coins capped so he can't even go that high but yeah watch out for an EVO today I was surprised we didn't get one yesterday because promo Friday this year I've not been that great yeah and that's kind of that's kind of it guys the other thing I will show you is we had our first leak for future stars like the leakers even have so much info at their fingertips that they're with it being kind of a mid day yesterday starting to leak future stars stuff so it's two week promo evidently and cold palmer is going to be in future stars so if you like next promo potentially if you would want to so have fun with these new cards like this little cock who looks like really fun power shop plus and power header might be really fun to try this Zambal might try to make some coins on him Lizzie Haran's been great for coins as well we're going to try to keep making coins in this game ooh we just got sale yeah let's go Allison 617 some of these team members might go up further but I'm going to keep flipping making some coins because the market this promo high for you about the game I know a lot of you guys are like
