 Hey guys, it's Nate, A.K. The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. We're inside of Summer Stars, and this is Summer TFA. I went to the beach, got a little red, but that's part of summer, right? So we're gonna talk today about Summer Stars, the market, and how SBC Fodder has absolutely exploded because of this content that EA has released. They required high chemistry, they required more 83s. They had a 92 plus icon moments pack that is decent value in all honesty. So we'll talk about that today and why Fodder has exploded and why some of these Summer Stars cards have actually gone up. Now again, I'm gonna stay strong and stay infirm in the fact that I think they will go down again a little bit on Thursday, and that could be a time to get involved with some of them, but some of them have just gotten a little bit rare after the weekend, and since their pack weight was a bit lower than some of the PTG cards even, these cards are decently rare on the market. So especially some of the high tier ones, I think that's why you're seeing their prices go up a little bit. But without further ado, let's roll into it. This was the code that FootWatch tweeted out yesterday. Literally like an hour after I posted the late market outlook video yesterday on Monday. Quick note about this, there are some preview packs, which this is an interesting note if we think forward to FIFA 22. Preview packs have to be added to the code before they're actually added into the store. Now I don't think we've seen any of these. An 81 plus rare three preview pack, 80 plus rare five, and then the 81 times seven. We've seen the 81 times seven before in FIFA. There was like a silver beast objective or something last week where you could get one of those, but this one's specifically a preview pack. So that's kind of interesting to me that EA have added these in. Now I don't know if this is something that we'll see like today that EA would put in because this is, I think I can see this happening in FIFA 22 is where they just put all these nice packs of these different packs into the store that people can preview and then boom, if they get lucky and pack something sick, then bang, EA Sports, maybe that person puts on a couple hundred FIFA points to buy the pack and boom, EA just made a little bit of extra money. So I see them really starting to get to tempt people by now they've got people knowing that they can go in and check the store every single day. Now I think today, or sorry, yesterday, this is the packs that were added Monday. Yeah, there's no packs that are in here right now, special packs besides just the normal ones, the standard packs if you will, but that could be gearing up for something like these to be added in. So I wanna talk about that just for a second as well, because we didn't see those, and I think we could see them very soon because those are preview packs. Again, they added a rare mega as well and a rare gold preview pack. And then yesterday as well, they added that 92 plus icon moments pack, which of course took the market for a spin. So let's talk about that. Honestly, this SBC is not bad. A 92 plus prime icon moments upgrade, if you think about it, the icon upgrade that we had last week was like 700,000 coins. This one, yes, the prices are up, but that's because it's good value. 84, 85, 86, three squads, they finally require a team the season cards that if you had the ability to grind the 85 to 90, boom, you have some Tots players now that you can actually use. But this is a really good value SBC, right? Especially when fodder was cheaper, right when this first came out, this was definitely not 500,000 coins. So that's a GG for me, eh? Considering last week the icon SBC was like 700K, this one's 92 plus and it's of course icon moments. From here it should be icon moments and nothing else has to be, right? Because we're just in July. So it should have been icon moments only for the past two months in my opinion anyways. But I think that's the best value casino icon upgrade SBC that we have had in the past couple of weeks. I'll be completely honest. That's a really good value one. I'm tempted to do it, right? 85, 86 and 84 squad, that's not bad. That's really, really not bad. The chemistry's up a bit, but I think a decent amount of people did that when I'm actually considering doing that SBC. Then the lower tier range of fodder went boom yesterday too because of an 82 plus times 10, Brazil, France, Portugal or Belgium. And of course if you take a look at the summer stars team you've got three of those nations being represented with Ronaldo, De Bruyne and Richarlison as options between those three nations impacts at the moment. So of course three big names there that you could pack. Now nobody from France of course, but you know what, 83 rated squad, 70 chemistry is where this one had the market moving though. You see index 86 here from 240 points to 328 points. So you know, not quite 100 point rise on the index 86, but then you look at the index 83 and you see a incredible rise, 326 points all the way up to 380, sorry, 226 to 380. So a much larger percentage point increase on the lower tier, the 83 is the 84s and I think that's purely because this 82 plus times 10 SBC is just doable and more enticing to a lot more people on FIFA than maybe the 92 plus is. I mean seriously, 500K, you know, there's less people that are playing FIFA right now that can dish out 500K for an SBC than they can 100,000 coins and then 83 rated squads. So I think that's why you saw a lot more people probably doing this one in terms of casuals on the game, the 82 plus times 10, especially when it gives you that casino feeling and you get 10 players in it. I saw somebody that opened one of these packs today and it had Mbappe and Neymar Golds both inside of it. So that's kind of crazy, but it's just this kind of content at this port of the year that makes things fun, A, number one and B, it just makes fodder go crazy, right? We were talking about this in like ultimate team this season, we were looking ahead into graphs that were gonna be happening during the summer and I was talking about it, I said hey, this is gonna be something that we're gonna see is a lot of movement on fodder because a lot of these SBCs are gonna come out and it's gonna be demand city and there's not gonna be a lot of supply. So 84 is 10,000 coins. I mean literally yesterday in the morning when we were uploading that video a couple hours before the content drop, I mean these guys were 7K and I was like, man, I know that's up a little bit because they were 6,000 coins but they're gonna go even higher and that is exactly what they have done. Now it's already Tuesday and these cards are pretty high. I don't know if they're gonna go extinct but they very well, 84s could go extinct at 14K. Later on this week, if we get more SBCs another like 84 plus player pick, that's how close we are to some of these 84s going extinct at like 14,000 coins. So I know EA's up the price ranges but they could probably up them a little bit again or here's a great idea, just supply them more on the market EA sports. Dropping us with some tradable SBCs. You know what, even if you did some preview packs like those ones you added to the code and then as long as those packs are pretty cheap people might actually go out and buy them with coins. As it goes up, it might be a good idea to just do some of these preview packs. So boom, you open a 7.5K pack and let's say you pack an 82 and an 84 and bang, you just made yourself 15,000 coins from that pack right there. Now that's not every single pack because of course you only get three rares and 12 gold items and it's not even guaranteed to be players but stuff like that could happen on this game and just watch your preview packs and see what they put out but it'd be nice if EA could supply the market a little bit. I know people get not so happy when the SBC fodder does go up a decent amount which it absolutely has. Again, just to take a look through these prices. Again, 84 is 10, 11,000 coins a piece. 85s are 16K, 86s are 25K a piece. 83s are 6,000 coins, 82s are three and a half to four. 87s, 88s, 89s, yes they're up a little bit but they're not crazy high because again a lot of that demand is in the 86 and below market. Again, 87 is the cheapest one is like 27,000 coins, 26K and that's where a lot of the 86s are as well, 24, 25K so just goes to show where the demand is right now on the markets and the mid to lower tier fodder stuff and I think that's kind of smart from EA as well because they know that if they make an SBC too expensive at this stage of the year, it's really, really easy for people that don't have a lot of coins to be able to say whatever, I'm not doing it. Now again, since we didn't have any supply yesterday, no preview packs and nothing really coming on the market tradeable wise, you saw a lot of these cards actually go up, right? You talk about Christiana Ronaldo who was 4.5 million coins on the morning of Monday, I believe Monday morning is somewhere around like the four, five to four, six. He's now in the four, eight range, almost the four, nine or Charleston was in the mid 600s. He's now 700K. I think the biggest percentage rise on these cards yesterday was actually Laporte. He was 220,000 coins and as it stands right now, he has 275,000 coins on the market. I think this card just has a lot of demand, right? And this is something at this stage of the game that you can learn and think about and place into concept and place into practice when you're in the early parts of FIFA as well with team of the week cards is always keep an eye on like a random team of the week or a promo team or even practicing with this stuff right now. Keep an eye on these cards that move around the most. Laporte moves around a lot. I've seen his price go all the way down to 200 flat at the very, very, very lowest and now he's back up to 274. Spinozola moves around Decent Mal. Calvin Phillips was 100K at one point. Dumfries was in 65K range. So some of these cards that are just rare and that have demand, right? You can check and see what cards have demand in a couple of different ways. I like using the thumbs up tool and foot bin because people like players, right? And then also the number of games played. 4,100 games played for Laporte. That's a decent amount. Let's check who else is around like 200K. Let me check Phillips. How many games does Phillips have? He's got 4,300. So they're actually like right in the same boat in terms of games play between Phillips and Laporte. That's kind of crazy. How about Esauk? Esauk has got 6,900 games played. Now one thing I will say is Esauk is a bit cheaper. So he's probably a little bit more supplied on the market as well. And there's just more cards out there and that's just gonna make him have more games because if he has more items on the market, that's more stats that foot bins gonna pull in and say they has more games. But it just goes to show that this Laporte likes to bounce around up and down in price a lot. He has a lot of demand. That's a card that you wanna keep an eye on because if he drops later on this week because of supply or because of any sort of panic selling, then this would be a card I would want 100% wanna get involved in because I would expect him to rise especially if Spain keep doing well. Now speaking of like Path to Glory live item type stuff, we have games today, Spain, Italy. So we have a couple more cards on the line. Marcus Rente back down to 1.2. He's getting a plus two upgrade. It should be Friday, but I'm wondering again if EA Sports is gonna be upgrading early. Now the early upgrade came last week, Wednesday night late. Basically like midnight, Thursday morning, Wednesday night time frame I think is when they upgraded the cards early last week. So of course we're not quite there yet, but that's something I'd keep an eye out for. Now we have our first five-win team in either competition and that is the big lads from Brazil. So Roberto Firmino, Vinicius Jr. and Derimila Tau are gonna be the first three Path to Glory cards to get their full plus five upgrade, right? Firmino is gonna be a 99 rated card come Friday or whenever EA decides to upgrade these cards again, because they got their five wins in total. They eclipsed that tonight. They are one win away from five star, five star Firmino, Vinicius and Militao for all of those cards. So that is a huge GG for those. And again, all the other players that are gonna get upgraded like Acuña, Paredes, Veratis, we're still waiting on a Chilwell, a Foden, the Urente, the Marata. We're still waiting on some of those cards to get upgraded too. I don't know if EA is gonna do it early. I kind of hope that they do since they did it like that last time. How much is Foden? Yes, he's dropped down too, right? One, three, eight, five. Just like the Urente post game, you've seen this card kind of, this guy was extinct at one five and now he's down to 1.2 million coins. That's actually kind of crazy that he's dropped off that much. I'm actually gonna add this to the watch list because I'm kind of surprised by that to see him drop off that much with the upgrade still known and still coming. I think, again, if they were to win again today against Italy, that would be a card you'd wanna keep an eye on. Same thing with Veratis because Veratis is due a plus one again for his upgrade, for their win that they got on the weekend because we already do some upgrades, I believe, from the games that happened on Friday. Yes, the Italy Belgium upgrade that has not been paid out yet since they upgraded them on Wednesday. On the 30th of June, so we will see, we will see what happens with those upgrades but we are due some more of those and of course I wanted to shout out Brazil because they are the first five-win team in either competition, I do believe. Unless Italy had already done that and I'm behind the eight ball here but I think Brazil was the first one. Italy has one, two, three, four, sorry. Italy already has five wins, my bad. Italy's going for their sixth win today, goodness me. Yeah, I missed that on that one. So, Brazil is not the first team to five wins but of course they are the first team to get a 99 rated card because the Italians already have five wins. So, the Verati item is gonna go to a 98 but if they win against Spain today, this card will become five star, five star as well. Which right now, what is he, 4-4? He's 4-4 so he'll go 5-5 if they do beat Spain today. So that'll be very interesting to keep an eye on and that's probably gonna push him to a 98. Well, it is gonna push him to a 98 and I hope EA do the business and make him club 90 because that'd be a crazy, crazy looking Verati card. So, GGs to Italy already but I just kind of wanted to talk about those Path of Glory items a little bit as well and it looks like somebody agreed with me that Llorente was just too cheap, they had to buy them. So, that's kind of what is going on in this game of FIFA right now at the moment. I'm gonna be crafting a lot of SBCs. I'm trying to pack some more of these summer stars items on stream later today on Tuesday. So if you wanna get involved, that link is down below in the description. I'll be doing some of these 82 to 88s to craft and the 80 plus is to of course get involved with hopefully packing some of those summer stars items. But today again for Tuesday content, I mean, probably we return with a player SBC and probably maybe a quieter day, I guess we'll see. Unless we have some pack code added again before the content today by Footwatch and by EA, we'll keep an eye out for that of course but we didn't have a player SBC yesterday. So maybe another summer stars item today or something along the lines of like a flashback player moments, some sort of player SBC I think would be due and then maybe they throw in another casino upgraded type pack like an 84 plus player pick or another 83 times 10 or something like that. So that'd be what I would keep my eyes out for today. Again, SBC fodder is going crazy because we have all these SBCs fodder to the moon basically is what's happening. We knew it was going to happen, but you know what? Sometimes you just, it just hits different when it actually happens even though when you're expecting it. So that's kind of what is going on with this market at the moment. Let me know down below if you packed anything from your icon moments or 82 plus times 10 and all that good stuff.
