 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Account, and welcome back to the channel. It's not quite the R9 Ronaldo cover star icon leak that we were hoping to see, but there's a massive leak for one of those cover star icons that is coming as an SBC very soon, and it might be very easy to craft this very expensive SBC because of some changes, of course, coming to Footies as soon as tomorrow. So we're going to take a look at that, and today's a big day. A massive day in terms of XP and objectives, because today we'll have some people hitting level 40 for the first time, getting that Footies Premium Venetius Junior card. It's going to be so insane. There's a lot to talk about today with Rivals Roards as well, so if you're excited for it, drop a thumbs up, and of course, subscribe if you're new. We're going to go straight into yesterday's content as we always do, and we're going to SBCs first. My biggest question of yesterday is, where is our player SBC that we voted on EA Sports? Because we have an Angel Gomez Footies card, but this is not the player SBC we were expecting. We were expecting a 99 passing center midfielder, but instead, here we have an Angel Gomez left wing in the league one, English links, five star skills, four star weak foot, five foot six. He can play Striker as well. If you remember, this Gomez had a fantasy foot card earlier on this year that was absolutely incredible. I think a lot of us did. That might have been an SBC as well. Here we are with another Angel Gomez SBC, decent card, decent links. It's not a premium. Of course, we always like the premium cards over the regular Footies versions. Only 72,000 coins are complete, not bad, but not that many people are excited about it at this stage of the game. Yes, it's a good card, but I'm glad that it's cheap because it's just not that insane. But our big question is, where's our other Footies SBC that we voted on, and why did that not drop yesterday, and why did we have this instead? So maybe we'll get that today. Maybe we're not getting it until later on. Question marks all around because we did not have that 99 overall passing upgrade on a center mid. Maybe it's today. We'll have to see. But other than that, yesterday we did have the return of the 93 plus player pick, but they actually brought it out in a new and refreshed way. Now we can't do this one multiple times. They can only do it once, but EA made it more expensive because they added in the Footies team four cards. You can pack all three teams of shapeshifters and all four teams of Footies from this player pick, which is why it is a little bit more expensive, which I think was just, you know, a lot of people saw that and they were like, nah, I don't want to do a more expensive player pick. But if you're just trying to pack a big time Footies card, I actually saw Footies popping from this player pick more often than any of the 93 pluses that we have seen thus far. And it makes sense because there are more players inside of that player pool to pack. So if you're going to take a gamble on a big time SBC, this is the one to do. If you're trying to hit one of the highest rated Footies cards possible, the Footies heroes are also packable from this. I think actually, yeah, I got four line from this yesterday. A lot of people were seeing heroes pop up in the player pick. It does not include the shapeshifter icons, but it does include the Footies heroes. And because of this, we did see a little bit of movement on the market in terms of fodder, especially with those team of the weeks and team of the seasons. There was of course some lazy sales to be had as people were out buying higher rated Informs and some of those team of the seasons with that 89 rated squad requiring that. But now once again, Informs are back down under 20k. They were up at about 23-24k, as they I think at their highest point with the higher rated ones, of course, going up even higher. And we're headed into our rivals rewards timeframe today where I think a lot of these prices could go even lower. So we're going to talk about that a bit more at the end of today's video with the market. But that wasn't even the biggest thing from yesterday's content on Wednesday. EA made a very confusing change. I can't even like, what's the word to describe this? This just does not make sense. It's inexcusable as what it is. We got all excited on Tuesday, right? With the foot champions bonus, all we had to do was use three footies players, get four wins or eight wins in weekend league to get those extra 85x10s and the group reward. Now yesterday, randomly, EA decided to change it so that it is no longer three footies players, but you have to win four champs matches with a Premier League three player set in your team and then also eight with three league one players. It just, it kind of takes the fun out of it. It's not even that massive of a change. If you think about it, you could technically put three Premier League and three league one players in your starting 11 and then get both of these done at the same time. If you play a full weekend league and get let's say nine or 11 wins, you would be able to get this objective completed, but it's still just annoying because we had, it seemed very open and very fun. Like, hey, just use three footies in your team and boom, you'll be able to get these extra rewards. But now it's like, okay, now I have to actually build my team around these different leagues like the bonus objectives have been in the past. And I think that's just something where it's like, hey, EA made something really fun. And then they pull it back and change it like out of nowhere into something that's not as fun. And it's more restrictive and less free, right? You have less freedom in your squad building and use three footies players versus Oh, you have to use these players from certain leagues. That's disappointing. I don't understand why he did that big L. There no makes no sense. Like, let us have fun with these footies cards. You're dropping them in objectives and SBCs and packs, we can get them very easily. It just doesn't make sense. So that was the biggest elf mesh. They don't know why they did that, especially at this late stage of the game. And they did it once again, also have some fun with a goalkeeper whose name is saving Toby saving English goalkeeper. He's probably not worth putting in your starting 11 unless it's for the banter like EA is kind of releasing this card for 61 reactions I'm hearing on his in game stats. It's probably not going to be the best goalkeeper in games. So that's that but still some fun 94 rated fodder, I guess you could say from EA. And that was all the content yesterday, not a really crazy day. But that 93 plus player pick was probably the most exciting thing out of yesterday's content. Now what really trumped all of that and is getting us more excited right now of what's to come in footies is this right here. The big league from yesterday we have two, but the biggest one is Zidane is coming as a cover star icon. And the prediction shows Zidane as a 99 rated player. Now once again, I'm going to say this is a prediction guys. This is probably not an exact leak of his stats on his card. But once again, I feel like we say it every day this past week that the cover star icons have been getting absolutely juiced because EA is really driving the hype right now with these SBCs and these objective cards that they are putting out the cover star icons. And the reason why Zidane shown as a 99 is really not too far out of the question is think about his best card in the game right now 97 rated Zidane which is 1.6 million coins on the market which I'm sure upon this leak yesterday as it did dropped from about 2 million coins down to about 1.4 and now he's back up a little bit. I mean a plus one on Zidane at this stage of the game and with how big of the boost they've been giving these cards a 99 rated is not out of question. Do I think EA will do it? I don't know they've saved the 99 rated cards for impacts only so far during footies. I hope they change it up and give this Zidane a 99 rated item. I just don't know what the likelihood of that is. I hope it's true but you know it's EA so I could very well see a 98 rated card being released here as well. Now also like Nate what's the price of this going to be? It's going to be really expensive right? Well it's probably going to mirror an SBC very similar to the Ronaldinho right? Ronaldinho with 33 squads. Rooney had a lot of squads as well. I forget how many he had 13 squads that's nowhere near 33 like it was for Ronaldinho of course but I have to imagine that a player of this caliber like Zidane is probably going to come in around a similar type of price as Ronaldinho but hopefully cheaper right? Again we just looked at the trophy Titans version of Zidane which is like 1.6, 1.7 mil or at least with somewhere around 2 million coins when this leak was put out. I'd have to imagine that a 99 Zidane or even a 98 Zidane would probably still come somewhere in the realm of about around 3 million coins to complete and if I had to guess a number of squads maybe around 25 squads so it's not going to be cheap guys it's going to be an absolutely insane grind you're going to have to undergo to get this card done and a lot of us have been doing Dino have been doing Rooney and these other big-time SBCs so we're completely rinsed the fodder like you can only send your club once from all the special cards you've saved up like I did for Dino turning in Flashback Ramos and Mane and some of those cards that I've had for months I turned them on to Dino now to do Zidane it's going to be a lot more difficult right? Well that actually may not be the case because think about what's coming this Friday now I know we've mentioned it as well already but new cards are coming in as the best of rerelease and we've got some SBCs here that might end up getting a lot cheaper and easier to complete with that being the case first of all the 84 times 10 and the 85 times 10 both require a team of the week or a team of the season or a tots moments I think also works for this if team of the season and team of the season moments cards are going to be in packs as a part of batch three you're going to be packing those left right and center and it's going to make these SBCs a lot easier to do number one team of the seasons are higher rated for an 87 rated squad for 84 times 10 you put in a 91 or a 92 tots card boom that's a player way higher than the rating and it suffices for the tots player that you have to have to get this done you fill in the rest of the squad with some other special cards from impacts like 88s 89s and then some 84s 85s 86s and boom you've got an 84 times 10 done it's going to kick back on a lot of higher rated players as well maybe a team of the season or two or three that you can craft back into this upgrade pack and then save some of the others for crafting the squads of Zidane so the 84 and the 85 times 10 I think getting cheaper this weekend make the potential for crafting a Zidane SBC a lot higher and I think you're going to be able to get it done for cheaper just by grinding through the 85 times 10s and of course the 85 times 10s right now are not that hard to even get from having little to no fodder in your club because of course we've got the daily bronze daily silver and daily gold upgrades which guys they're not going anywhere eight days 15 days left on the gold upgrade still a lot of time on this one and of course we talked about it the footies crafting upgrade still has 15 days left on it as well a lot of time right now to be crafting and to building up fodder in your club if you've got bronze and silver players in that way to get fodder to do is a dinosaur so there's a lot of potential for a card like this and to be able to craft it in this next week with what is coming out now when's it's going to drop it has to be Friday it has to be right Dino Roberto Carlos Rooney big icons dropped on Fridays this one probably is going to be ended up dropped tomorrow I would imagine of course who knows EA could have something else up their sleeve but that will be the expectation for the Zidane now it's a lot of talk about him but he deserves every single minute of it because Zidane what a player what a card in FIFA Del Piero is also leaked as another cover star icon to be dropping as well and this is going to be a sleeper insane card this Del Piero is going to have something that his other card earlier on this year from trophy Titans was missing out on and that's a bit of pace I think they're going to give this Del Piero card again 93 94 95 pace would be awesome and it would make this card so so good he's already five star five star he's got almost maxed out dribbling and shooting and it will be probably maxed out on this new version that it could be getting as a cover star and the best thing is he's probably going to be a lot more affordable than his Zidane will be now I don't know when this is going to come out it might be a Saturday might be a Sunday maybe even into next week who knows but I'd have to imagine that this card would be a lot more reasonably priced maybe somewhere along the lines of like Javi Alonzo which I would say again a lot of you guys may agree to Javi Alonzo definitely isn't cheap he's eight squad some higher rated ones in there I think he's like 600k I hope Del Piero is cheaper than that but I could see EA pricing him there now I think for a lot of people to really want to do a Del Piero card it's going to have to be like 300k for it to be like wow OMG insane I gotta get this Del Piero done but for 500k again more craftable through 85 and 84 times 10s plenty of other rewards from objectives that you can get fodder from that's going to be an insane card I've always loved Del Piero he's always pretty good in FIFA and uh yeah five star five star it might be our end game Del Piero card maybe 97 hopefully 98 rated of course his trophy Titans was a 95 so I would expect to see Zidane first unless they're going to drop Del Piero today on a Thursday wouldn't expect that with the way the leaks have gone I bet Del Piero is going to be in the weekend maybe even as a part of next week's content but those are two massive cover star icon leaks which make me even just a little bit more excited about what is coming on Friday now in terms of that we still don't really have any news or information or even leaks about at least right now at this time what's going to be impacts on Friday we don't know there's no loading screen there's no news or leaks no pack code that's been added could they still rerelease footies cards yes could they put new footies cards in they could do that as well and at the same time what are they going to do for the best of batch right we're talking about team of the seasons and stuff like that obviously that's what seems to be the choice that EA would go with team of the season cards and packs maybe some shapeshift their cards and packs as well probably both of those we're expecting that but we don't have any concrete information or leaks about that just yet hopefully we get some more today now speaking of today once again XP guys make sure you check the objective section today a content because we should be getting a footies week what is it now week five yeah footies week five XP objective set which will probably include the same thing we've had in the past couple weeks with like the team of the year honorable mentions Harry Kane we had the Kovica last week where we had to play six win eight score and 10 now we've had every top five league covered by a player think about it Levent Dalsky Lacazette Harry Kane and Kovica Bundesliga is that fifth top five league that has not been represented yet there might be a Bundesliga player as a part of this today so if you want to take a risk you know a guy like team Overnor maybe Julian Brand who knows there's a lot of it's been attackers too right a lot of attackers in the Bundesliga that EA could use today for this objective but regardless unless you're going deep into the weeds they're trying to speculate who it might be we're going to get some XP today guys and with I think 3000 XP dropping each week which each with each one of these objective sets everybody who was on level 37 and above which is actually a lot of people in this game right now that have been collecting the XP to get all the way up as fast as they can to get this level 40 Vinny Jr card or if you're really crazy taking a one of five player pick which I would not recommend when this card is here today will be the first day in ultimate team that people should be able to get this Vinny Jr 98 rated end game card maxed out dribbling insane pace shooting passing like what a card this is of course when the season first drop we were all like wow we got to get to level 40 get this Vinny card it's going to be game breaking and he should be available today if the XP is released like it has been in the past few weeks so that's absolutely crazy if you're almost there GGs I mean shoot if you're going to get Vinny today hatched off to you applause to you because you have been grinding this season in August the XP I have fallen behind I have literally my cares for the season XP are very very low maybe I won't even hit level 40 this time it's not looking like I need 21k XP I'm behind for sure I don't even know but for those of you guys that have been keeping up with it if you've been going after that Vinny card today might be the day where you get it but for sure in the next couple of days more and more people will be completing the XP as it gets dropped out in the game to get that Vinny card what a day for FIFA and content today with that now other things that could be coming out today as well Thursday content is always marquee matchups no surprise there it's going to make some supply to the market as it usually does probably going to drop some prices on other certain areas of the market too and also what could come out with that today is that 99 rated passing center mid as we mentioned before not sure how we got Angel Gomez yesterday EA is going against their normal run of form here maybe we get that 99 passing or 99 physical center mid today have to watch out for that and then of course today it's rivals day let's talk about the market just a bit especially with fodder because the last couple of Thursdays like we have this week we've had the rivals objective which brings more supply to the market on rivals rewards Thursdays because people are taking the tradeable packs guys because think about all the specials that are in packs you know people are selling those cards they are making some coins and the last few weeks on Thursdays team of the seasons team of the week cards fodder in general has dropped off pretty significantly actually at division rivals rewards because people are packing those cards or getting fodder and going out and doing the tradeable tots and team of the week SBCs now I would say for today watch team of the weeks closely and team of the seasons closely because there could be opportunities to quick flip with those today and to get team weeks and team of the seasons at a very low price but for me I'm going to be looking to offload a few of my team of the week and team of these season cards because again as we mentioned earlier this week if team of the seasons get dropped back into packs I would definitely expect some of their prices to decrease even with all the SBCs at route 33k for tots cards right now let's say EA put like 20 30 40 of them in packs there's probably going to be 200 players in packs guys for best of batch three we had 100 in batch one 150 in batch two we could be seeing 200 in batch three so I would say a lot of that would be made up of team of the season cards if I had tots cards I would be looking to maybe cash those out just to keep it safe because all tots cards could end up being 25k here in the next day or two throughout this weekend depending on how many those get re-released back into packs so that's what I'm thinking today fodder is going to take a hit again as we mentioned yesterday there was a little bit of a spike not even too crazy of one and there could be a bit of a spike today after rivals like you could see a dip at rivals rewards and then a spike up later on but once again as we almost see every single Thursday on this game once we get to the marquee matchups timeframe you'd see a definite drop off on prices as you can see here look Thursday last week on Wednesday in forums for 89 raids this delict was 33,000 coins as we get into Thursday with rivals rewards he drops down down down he's about 30,000 coins and at content a couple hours after content he goes all the way to 25k last week before rising up on Friday into Saturday when in forums are very in demand again and then they got really really low last Monday of course but I would expect to see a dip in prices on in forums and team the season cards and just fodder in general today now also for footies cards because they're in packs too if you're like Nate I really want to buy like a footies cutinho or I really want to buy footies David alaba when should I be looking to pick up one of these cards again for me this really depends on what is EA going to do with the stuff getting re-released back into packs and as right as of right now we do not know if EA do release these cards back into packs they're definitely going to drop number one because of panic selling number two because of extra supply so maybe you just wait until we get a bit more information on that front before making the decision how much is cutinho right now cutinho is around 200,000 coins that's almost the lowest he has been especially for some of the cheaper and lower tier cards and footies I would expect them to drop a little bit today so be careful with that but definitely keep an eye out on the market for a couple things today in terms of the fodder for fluctuations and you know as as we always often see if there's a massive spc that is released like if we do get a 99 testing sentiment today whoever it may be if it's an emotional player and if it's a card that people maybe need one or two other players to get into the team to link or it will help other players link and it's a very popular spc you can always watch out for some link investments to those players moving on the market a little bit as well so Thursday today as well make sure you qualify it up for week and make sure you get all those games in and complete your draft grind because I think the draft objectives might be going away pretty soon as well just because that was all a part of this week footies draft yeah you got one day left to get the gackpole card I'm probably not going to finish this one off either but that is kind of there for the taking as we get close to the end of this week and into one of the last week of footies so we'll be watching for loading screens today we'll be watching for information and news if EA dabble something out there dribble something out there and tell us a little bit more about what could be coming today on Thursday and even tomorrow on Friday as a part of footies week five call team five bat best of batch three not really sure what to call this we'll call it for this week five but that's all for the video today if you did enjoy smash a thumbs up on a comment below if you have any questions and of course subscribe if you're new so you guys in a twitch stream today that link
