 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. Let's try this one again. Today is the day that we expect the Max 89 rated World Cup hero pack. I want to talk about why it actually didn't drop yesterday because there's an SBC that is still available right now that is preventing the Max 89 hero from being dropped, in my opinion. We're going to take a look at that because that SBC expires today, which is why we think the hero pack actually should be today. And we'll talk about a pack that is now available via the swaps grind because EA finally dropped some more swap tokens, so we can get that 84x60 pack with all the tokens. That's putting some of the grind back into place. And a lot of people are going to be getting that pack in the following days, which could mean a little bit for the fodder market. We'll talk about that. And of course, the market in general right now continues to just be a very weird place, right? The Path of Glory cards continue to go up. The World Cup heroes continue to fluctuate. But most things other than that are really stagnant. And that's just because the elephant in the room Black Friday is still on the horizon. So I want to take a look at that and also a little sneaky thing that EA did yesterday, changing the amount of time that Path to Glories and the World Cup heroes are in packs. Very sneaky, not a big fan. But we'll take a look at all that in more today's video. If you're excited for it, hit the thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Now let's talk about this hero pack because we were all set on it dropping yesterday and it didn't drop. Instead, we had the 86 plus team week upgrade, which was added to the code at the exact same time as the hero pack was. Now there's a reason why we didn't get the hero pack yesterday. And I noticed it yesterday right around the content time and it clicked. The reason why we didn't get that pack yesterday is because we still have the base icon upgrade available out for 15 hours. And right, we've never had any of these big upgrade packs coincide together on the game this year. They've either been out once at a time, then the one expires, and then the next one comes in. So I think that, of course, especially since we had the 86 team week yesterday, we're going to have this SBC expiring and then the 89 max hero that everybody's still looking forward to is going to drop on the game today. So we should see some hype and some movement still around the hero cards today. Now the hero cards as they sit on the market, I'll talk about fodder in a second as well, but the hero cards as they sit, a lot of them had a couple fluctuations up yesterday, like the biggest fluctuation was Alawarion. He went from 640k up to 700,000 coins when the pack was not released and then it was not on the game. Right now he's back to 660, but there could be a little bit more sell-off on some of the heroes today because I think people are now expecting it to be delayed. If it's not today then EA's got something crazy up their sleeve and they've got something else planned and they're trying to do make the market move in a weird way at some later point this week or something, but it just would make sense for the SBC to drop today as well if you think about it. Thursday Friday, pre-Black Friday and the Black Friday promo, EA just like they did before the World Cup promo could take this opportunity to try to drain some coins before they get you to open packs this weekend. That's the way they're going to think through it and that's why I think again if that SBC didn't drop today I'll be shocked, but hey who knows it's EA. They've been doing some EA things recently with the content so we'll just have to see, but the hero cards are just kind of chilling. I'd be careful with those today. Honestly with the way that the market is right now, I said it's kind of like the elephant in the room is that Black Friday is still on the horizon and every day that we get closer to Black Friday I can't believe that less and less people are talking about Black Friday. I have not seen a lot of panic or people worried about it. I mean yes it's in our mind, but at this point usually with Black Friday that's all we've been talking about for the past two weeks, but this year with the World Cup going on it's kind of overshadowing that whole situation. We've already had a big market crash so it's kind of like all right now we're just waiting for what we're going to see is going to come out because in theory it's a way different Black Friday than ever. So that's still impacting the market which is why I'm being very careful with what I trade with and still I think that if you're in this market right now and you have gold cards I don't like golds. I really don't. Again this Black Friday promo is all about supply so as you see Mbappe is still in his low range, still fluctuating a bit but kind of low. Neymar still under 300,000 coins. Van Dyke 140, you know messy 110k. I would just be careful with these guys really. Like I would not hold any of these cards that are still gold cards that are not fodder. I wouldn't hold any of them honestly especially a gold Kyle Walker that's going to be coming back into packs this weekend or this Thursday right. I would take the cash on a lot of gold cards and then look for a lower entry point probably on Thursday night, Friday morning. We'll keep a close eye on that situation especially for a guy like Mbappe or maybe Neymar who is still a very meta gold card that people might want for their teams. Now let's talk fodder because fodder is going to get supplied a lot this weekend as well but even before that today on Tuesday with the World Cup hero pack coming back fodder is still kind of up. Yesterday when we didn't actually see the pack drop I think fodder had a quick dip like there was a little bit of a dip on fodder but then it kind of rose right back up as people bought back in. I would say this whatever pack drops today or whatever the price of the pack is when it drops today I would look to get your fodder out by Friday and honestly yeah definitely by Friday maybe Thursday after rewards you could see a bit of an uptick in fodder if people are getting their rivals rewards going out and doing the Max 89 World Cup hero SBC after it drops today so I would say there's a potential for that but by the time we get to Friday is the closer that we get I think people are going to start to sell off these cards expecting big supply with lightning rounds with packs flash SBCs so with that in mind I would probably try to get out of the fodder that you um invested in in the next couple of days not saying you have to sell it today right when the SBC comes out because again I still I still say and I still think that if they make this SBC a little bit too expensive today fodder might not go up because it is very invested in a lot of people are investing in this fodder and hoping that it will go up but again like I said we just need a really good value pack which it could drop but that would not make fodder all of it go up if it's a really good value right it's only going to make it go up in specific areas depending on what they require so that's what I would say just be very very careful with the fodder in the current state of this market now we talked about the market a little bit we're going to talk about it a little bit more specifically with the PTG cards but first what I want to look at is a part of yesterday's content that EH dropped via objectives is the week two of the world cup swaps which was a fat W because we now have 26 tokens 26 swap tokens are now available and if you want to see a tracker I'll link this tracker down below in the description of the video so that you can see where each and every single one of these trackers are at or these cards are at but there are now 26 tokens that are available to a get in the game which is nice right especially since we had so many drops right away and then they gave us four on Friday which we were a little bit disappointed with now we have the ability to get up to 26 and technically what that means is all but just of a few of the swap rewards are attainable now which is actually a big dub you can even right now if you have all your tokens you can get up to 25 and get that FIFA world cup path to glory or sorry that's the hero player pick the world cup hero player pick at 25 tokens if you grinded all of them right now there's even one extra you could get this player pick but of course the big pack that like so many people are excited about is this one the 84 times 20 times 3 or the 84 times 60 now I have not opened any of these yet I'm sure we'll get to opening some soon I'm still working through getting my tokens this is one of the things that I'm going to be opening but people are going to start to get this they're going to start to open this pack because the tokens are going to be collected over the next day or two as we get further into the week and fodder is pretty expensive so this pack for a lot of people right now especially having pat the glories still impacts and especially having the world cup heroes impacts at the same time which EA extended those items impact we'll talk about that in a second I think a lot of people are going to open those 84 times 20 times 3's and you know maybe maybe they'll open one maybe they'll save the other two I like that there's three in there right that's the drop to this pack in the first place but just the fact that EA dropped those objectives that we can go out and grind is so nice because that gives a little bit more grind ability to the menus if you were you know way ahead you know now that maybe even if you weren't ahead if you were like me where you just didn't have a ton of motivation to do swaps because there weren't that many tokens out or you know I don't know whatever struggling with motivation whatever now that kind of motivation helps that you know you can attain that pack and that it's there and anytime you get the tokens you can go and claim it and get it so I think that helps a bit of the menu grind so again I'll put that link down below in the description so you can check that out but I think that over this next weekend and even with the max 89 hero pack coming today I still think that that sbc could be a little bit overvalued just because EA know that a lot of people have the potential to get fodder from that big pack and then the 80 plus double upgrade that they dropped guys I think this is a solid sbc and again you could say and this is how this has helped me out right I did maybe like I don't know five to seven of these yesterday picked up a couple of walkouts a couple other 84s 85s from this it's not a bad value sbc for an upgrade pack because it gives you two players right and you only need nine not you need nine golds eight non-rares one rare so you know it's really not that bad a value for an 80 plus double you can pack the world cup heroes out of this it's a that's a w and and you know maybe build a few of these to save for the next upcoming promo and all the craziness that we have to come just like the previous weeks it's only available for another day 15 hours it's only available until Wednesday which is a bit of a bummer but you know I think there'll be something that'll be pretty good to stack up on and to get into do and save for the next week's promo or just to try to get some fodder right now to craft that hero pack or any other sbc's that you're working on now speaking of stuff that is in packs once again EA did something sneaky yesterday and they even tweeted about it right after we found out first on the stream we loaded in and we saw this timer on the bottom changed these cards are now in packs through week and league rewards into Thursday at 6 p.m. content they were originally going to go away at Wednesday 6 p.m. content but EA changed the timer then they went out and they tweeted and said hey guys we are going to keep these cards um you know impacts for 24 hours of course people in the comments are not very happy you guys are so inconsistent this is the worst world cup content we've seen from you guys I can't lie so that's how people feel on FIFA right now I completely understand and I see a lot of that myself uh but yeah so is that going to affect these path to glory cards of course is the question well honestly the biggest thing is these guys are going to be impacts for rewards now right and that's the biggest draw which actually is nice if you think about you're going to play division rivals this week you still have a chance at packing these cards whereas before you wouldn't have had the chance so that's a w now I'm going to talk about a lot of these ptg cards in a second but is this change going to make these cards crash not really right there these cards are still going to be very rare they're not going to have a lot of supply really what is going to make these cards move and what we've seen already after yesterday's kind of the first full day of games what makes these cards move is what should make them move the games right the world cup games the the nations that are playing and the potential upgrade path that all of these players are on based off of how their nation and their country plays right so I want to talk about with trading with some ptg cards because honestly in this state of the market these cards are the ones that I would be the most comfortable trading with and it's hard trading with these it is it's very tough and it's risky but if you time it right and you learn some of the fluctuations and trends you can make a lot of coins whether you invest in these learning when to sell the best time we saw yesterday with the Kyle Walker card and the Jack Grealish some new trends right that are similar to road to the knockouts that are very very good to trade with so I want to talk through those let's get into it right now first I want to look at this kuthier middle card because argentina play early today and I want to talk about this first because yesterday with Kyle Walker we saw a trend right and I even participated in this trend and sold a little bit too late you can see Kyle Walker about an hour or so actually was about three hours before game time he was up here at 698 basically 700 k in the early morning hours they played the earliest game yesterday he was down at about 780 so he dropped from like 700 k down about honestly 20 000 coins 677 as people were selling the card pre game in the hype right so the lesson to learn here is sell the card not just right before the game but sell the card like four or five six hours before the game so if you're watching this video you know honestly with how much this kuthier middle card is up argentina play first thing today right 5 a.m eastern time going to be up early right he was 220 earlier this is a brand new high-priced this card 239k if you bought kuthier middle you know on saturday or something for like 140k and you're like Nate i'm gonna ride this thing till the end because he could absolutely go higher than this towards the end right if argentina keep winning and you want to bank on that then sure you keep holding but if you're in this for the quick flip i mean guys this is like one of the best quick flip opportunities ever up 100 000 coins almost in four days that is unbelievable on it on a card that is this cheap right so if you have kuthier middle and you're just in it for the quick flip or if you want to get coins before black friday this price right here at 240 i mean he could go a little bit higher right because every single time i look at these cards and think nah man that can't go that much higher right well this right here seems like a pretty good price for me to sell but that is an insane insane price in such a big increase in a short amount of time that to me after seeing kuthier middle go up another 50k yesterday to me is like all right that's a card that i'd be interested in selling but i would get it out at least a while before the game starts today because the thing that we learned yesterday is these cards will drop a little bit as they head into game time like we saw with cow walker now cow walker went back up to 700 000 coins when england scored those two goals early in the game yesterday even though they were heavy favorites his card price still went up as people were hyped for the card thing and oh my goodness he's getting closer to the upgrade and that sort of thing so that could be if you think argentina's going to score first today maybe this would work a little bit better with gomez because he's a more rare card but you know maybe you don't sell in a couple hours before the game you wait until they score if you want to risk it and then sell there but then after the game this is another trend i want to talk about kyle walker after the game went from 700k down to 660 and it probably timed out pretty well too that that time frame was like their game was ending a couple hours before content so kyle walker went from 700 all the way down to 650 and look where he is now all the way back to 700 000 coins because they won the game they're progressing and getting closer towards the upgrade that's the next trend i want to show you it's even more drastic with grillish right this is absolutely a way that you can trade with these cards today every single day throughout this week on this game because they're so hyped for the upgrades if the team of the card wins right england won yesterday grillish i got to show you this graph right because grillish is 180 000 coins right now absolutely nuts right 183k yesterday grillish pre game was 143 people sold him down before the game to 130 england scored uh and then he kind of actually like england scored in here and he went down and stayed around 130 to 140 after the game and then of course shot up as you can see now he is 180 000 coins since he is getting closer to the upgrade and it seems almost guaranteed now since they're on three points right especially since they won the first game they were expected to win the group anyways or be in uh advancing from the group this card continues to rise same thing with kyle walker these cards usually drop post game for like an hour or so and if the drop is big enough it is absolutely something you can look into to trade with so like example again today let's say with our game between argentina and saudi arabia right let's say that papu gomez drops off post game he goes up he goes down you know that's a very rare card in a very popular card same thing with kuthier merrill you're going to have an opportunity to maybe buy those guys in a dip after the game an hour or two hours afterwards and then sell them later on in the future maybe in a day or so after uh people go out and try that card or they buy it and invest it again because they're like oh my goodness they're this much closer to getting the upgrade so that's a big trend that we saw with those cards right there now of course the flip side of the coin a team does not perform as well as you would have liked them to like usa right usa was winning this pulizic card went up we were all excited right went up to 100 000 coins actually it shows 94 but he was 100k and he was dropping all the way down now he just reached a low about three hours ago at 82k and he's now rising up to about 87 000 coins as people still believe that usa will get out of the group you know it's going to be tight so that's a scenario that you're really gambling in i like gambling with the cards like grilish or i even picked myself up a kyle walker i got really really lucky on a snipe but i picked myself up a kyle walker at uh 600 000 coins flat when he was about 660 on the market right before content i got a lucky snipe there so i'm holding this kyle walker card because i know that right now it's looking very good for england and this card's probably just going to continue trend up even though we could have a little bit of supply on the market today i think these cards will do very very well again the cards that we want to be watching the closest today for quick flip trading and this sort of stuff would be argentina cards would be the denmark cards and of course mexico versus poland today milik versus lazano in terms of the live cards that's going to be a very interesting game to watch and then you have to watch greezman and and kunku today for france australia because those of course are very very favored cards uh but again with like we talked about yesterday there weren't any really crazy results from yesterday's games it kind of went all according to planned but if there's any upsets today or even if a underdog team scores first right there's going to be potential for these cards to move on the market i would especially watch it during the mexico polling game um and even if saudi arabia were to score first on argentina or if australia were to put one in the back of the net before france then you would see a lot of movement on the market and that would create great incredible opportunities to trade with these cards so i know that was a lot of conversation about those live ptg cards but that's honestly what i would be trading the most right now if you want to risk it if you want to trade i bought a four a couple four loans yesterday um i bought some riche james under nine or 180 000 coins and sold those in a little monday market rise but these four loans right now are not going up that much and so i might just take the cash on this and try to break even out of this at a tax loss if he's still around like 760k um and then you know just maybe look back to these ptgs because these cards since they're alive move so much on this game but there should be some more hype today because i really do think the world cup hero pack is going to drop on the game today and i think it's craftable with the 80 plus upgrades i think there's a lot more grind and objectives now with the tokens that are out and there are a lot of opportunities for ea to give us some good content now and for there to be movement on the game last thing i will say really really quick is tuesdays i know we already had the 86 plus double upgrade yesterday for the team of the weeks we have an 81 plus player pick that is player pack that is added to the code and a 583 plus this sounds like a one-time non-repeatable sbc that's like a nice fodder stock as well so i don't know how much that's going to cost um but that sounds like something that would be very interesting to do that a lot of people would have uh desires to complete if it was dropped on sbc as well so watch those two pack codes maybe coming out today maybe tomorrow who knows but that will be a pack that a lot of people would want to have as well as again we'll get closer and closer to the black friday promo which we're probably going to talk a lot about tomorrow because i think on a wednesday we might see a loading screen maybe today there's a possibility for a loading screen today if they want to drop it early for pre black friday uh just watch out for that because that i think would be the next thing that would kick start a little bit of selling again on the market but that hero pack today should make some things move so if you're excited for that pack today make sure you hit the thumbs up comment down below if you have any questions and of course subscribe if you are new best of luck if any of your nations are playing in the world cup today and i'll see you guys in the stream link in the description of course cheeky plug it's been Nathan for the count i'll catch you guys later peace out
