 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. I think EA Sports has just taken the foot birthday content to the next level, especially with the foot birthday swaps rewards that they dropped yesterday on this game. Now, I'm not saying the whole swaps rewards are a W. I think there is a very mid kind of feeling to this, but where everybody's going to be taking the rewards, a lot of packs are going to be redeemed. And I think that it's going to set this next couple of days on this game into a big crafting spree, especially with the 80 plus player pick that we got yesterday. There is a lot to do right now in this game in terms of crafting SPCs and a lot of fodder packs are being opened. And that's kind of put in the shift of this promo in that area instead of the lackluster upgrades on the cards that are in packs. I want to take a look at that and how that could impact the market, but we're still going to get daily player SPCs and we still have a lot of stuff to do every single day and objectives as a part of this foot birthday grind. So I'm engaged. I'm involved. I got to keep grinding my swap tokens. I know a lot of you guys are sticking the same way as well. So we're going to talk about all of that today and more. If you find any enjoyment or you get any use out of this video today, hit the thumbs up. And of course, if you're new around here, hit that subscribe button. Now, there's a lot to talk about from yesterday. Let's start from the top with swaps. Now, we didn't have any leaks from this besides a couple of things beforehand that we talked about yesterday, 81 times 11, World Cup Crespo foot birthday team one pack, 82 times 20. I mean, you guys have seen these rewards that are inside of here. I'm going to cut to the chase and give it to you straight right away. I do believe this swaps program is mid. It really is. If you look at the players that are inside of it, Alan Shearra for 20 tokens, that's the only good player in this set in my opinion. And really, I think the people that are going to take this are Newcastle fans or somebody who just wants to try out a cool, very rare card that not a lot of people are going to have that has some pretty interesting upgrades and 5 star skills. Probably the only Alan Shearra ever that's going to have 5 star skills, right? So I get the idea that you want to do that and that is kind of cool. But Rio Ferdinand 300 K icon card, that's a lot of tokens to grind for a player that's only about 300 K on the market and not that special. There's so many other cards out that are as good or better than him. Same thing with Crespo. I understand if you want to go for like a press and press United team, you could go for a real but for 17 tokens that just seems a bit steep where everybody's kind of seemingly going with this fodder with this swaps promo. I said it right there is the fodder right? You got the 85 times 10 for a very good value of 10 swaps tokens. A lot of people have been opening this up already and guys I'm telling you the packet on this is actually a lot better than what I expected. We opened a bunch yesterday on stream. The foot bird days that you pack from this, you're not getting the insane cards, right? A lot of what people are packing from this are the LeFont, right? They're packing the Jabril so the year, right? The true quasi and the two versions of Koke, but you still have a chance at getting some really good cards from like foot birthday icons. Still some of the good guys in the promo team. I think we packed an Emerson yesterday from one of those 85 times 10s, but the interesting thing about those 85 10s yesterday is that the rest of the fodder that the packs were giving out. You guys know sometimes with a pack like this, you get like 6 85s and the rest is a couple 86 is an 87 but a lot of packs we got yesterday only one two or three 85s inside of it. That is a really, really good pack weight for this pack. So I'm a huge fan of this 85 times 10 at 10 tokens. I think it's the best value swap SBC reward in the whole entire release the 84 times 20, which is it basically an 84 times 40 two different packs. I think it's decent as well. It just seems like kind of a fodder swaps promo. The 87 plus player pick inside of here is really interesting as well. I think there's two best scenarios to go with this. You can go with the 30 tokens, right? Is how many tokens were expected to get in total now there are going to be 34. I believe in including the store packs. So if you kind of want to do math based off of that, if you're buying all the store packs, go ahead. But 30 tokens available be a SBC and objective. I'm going to go with the 15 token player pick. I'm going to go with the 10 token 85 times 10 and the five token 82 times 20. I think that gives me a nice mix of fodder and also the potential to hit something fun and to gamble a little bit with this nice player pick and these player picks very similar to the ones that we had during the Freezer Stars promo just with more recent and some live cards inside of this road to the finals fantasy foot fantasy foot hero for birthday team one. There's a lot of potential with those. So I'm excited for that. I'm going to hit that 85 10 and 82 times 20, but if you want to go with the 84 times 20 and the 85 times 10, I don't blame you. But the reason why I think those swaps rewards yesterday really took foot birthday to the next level is all the SBCs we are getting right now just became super craftable. Now people with fodder is saying, Hey, yo, am I doing Pedri? Am I doing a woby? Am I going to start crafting Rivaldo? Am I going to do the 88 plus icon player pick or what other SBC am I going to start crafting? Maybe it's Croy for Mbappe. There are just so many SBCs out right now that are you know, decent enough to do into craft that people have upgrades to do as well alongside of those like the 80 plus player pick, which is incredible value. And I packed my biggest pack poll of the year in terms of tradable value from this yesterday. We'll talk about that. But I just think the crafting kind of like vibes on this game right now is all the hype is in the SBCs and the fodder packs you can get from SBCs and objectives to go and get either SBC packs done that you're going to save for maybe you don't like the full birthday cards that are impacts right now and you want to save for full birthday team to either you're doing that or you're opening the packs right now and just crafting and doing a lot of SBCs. So yes, this swaps program is not insane, but I think it is great enough that it helps us get a lot of SBCs done and it really puts that kind of emphasis on the game, which is a really fun grind when there's SBCs out that you can craft and want to do because they're fun different new cards to try out and that sort of stuff. So that's a big W. Now the interesting thing is we have 16 tokens that have been released, but not all 16 are actually available. As you can see right here, I just did my daily login and I just now got this token. This is one of the 16. It's been released right and I got the loan Marquinhos W but there are two more inside of this on day seven and day 10. I believe that are counted towards swaps. They're in the game. So technically right now, according to the website, we've been using this tracker, the foot share of tweets out this tracker. I think it's the best and most put together tracker out of all of them. There are 16 that have been released, but the two guys that are at the end of the foot birthday login objective, McGlynn and Isaac, you can't even get them yet. So actually you kind of have to minus two off of that. So there have been 14 total, including a store packs. Today is going to get us to 15 through the token that will be coming through first owner Fiesta. This Hoffman token is going to be going away today. A new one probably coming in for that. So watch out if you're going to do the 15 token player pick today is technically like the first day you could actually physically do it with the swaps that have been released on the game. So that's kind of a whole swaps discussion and scenario. Let me know down in the comments what you guys are thinking. There's not really a wrong answer. I would just want to lay all that out for you guys and talk about how I really think swaps is impacting this game at the moment. Alongside of this 80 plus player pick guys yesterday, man, don't sleep on these bro because I know some people are saying Nate, these are not that good. All it takes is one player pick man to get something like this. We got absolutely insanely blessed yesterday with a icon foot birthday best. And I think I did like 15 12 to 15 player picks yesterday. I bought some cards before content and all of a sudden out pops 94 best with five star skills. Absolutely insane. Literally my best value pack pull of the year behind VVD or ahead of VVD and lay out both of these are first owners as well. Right. I mean crazy crazy crazy pack pull from that and guess what? I saw a lot of people yesterday packing foot birthdays as well. From those I saw a lot of people packing we packed another icon on stream another George best out of one of those player picks from another player pick. So the 80 pluses I think are an incredible incredible craft. They're a one of three and you know, you can tell that a lot of people are doing them because if you take a look at non rares on the market, non rares are already up to about 550 coins. Usually non rares aren't reaching those prices on player picks during the week until like Thursday Wednesday or Thursday and we are already into selling at 550 coins right now on this game. So I think there's a lot of hype for the 80 plus player pick. I think it is decent value, but of course it does cost coins. It's just a nice place to put any non rares and rares that you get throughout this week in that SBC. We also have the year review player pick yesterday, which I know a lot of people look at these and say, Nate, these are a scam. They kind of are. All right, let's keep it honest and just keep it with what it is. These are a bit scammy. This one is a bit expensive 166 K as well. But the thing is, it's so craftable, right? It's so easy to get done 84 and 86 rated squads. It's really not 166 K. If you have any sort of fodder in the club, you can get it done and it's pretty fun. Now again, the big draw to this is that you have the potential to pack player the month and Bopay from it. It is confirmed. You can pack that card to Ram. You can see some of the players that are SBCs and objectives from previous months in this game are here on like the most popular page on footbin is the Kettilara available from that. Oh, I didn't even think about that. Mares, I know is available from it. Gareth Bale is available. So if you missed out on some of those SBCs or objectives, like I got Rovella in my player pick yesterday, which is kind of crazy to be like, I didn't have to go through and play all of those games to get the future stars Rovella objective done. I just do this player pick a month and a half later and bang, I get the card. So not that that card is making my main team or anything. It's just kind of crazy how EA now they've done this the past couple of years, but release old SBCs and objectives into a player pick that you can get, you know, for like like this instead of having to do the SBC with multiple segments or like Nuno Tavares people are packing yesterday, which was like one of the most expensive left back objectives in the game. And they got him for doing 166,000 coins player pick. So that's kind of the cool part about this, but also it can be pretty scammy as well. It's a fun one, right? That's why it's kind of a mixed up vote, downvote. I like it. It's fun, but you just have to still be careful with your coins. Know how many coins you have and just be kind of careful with that. We also had a premium Electrum players upgrade pack yesterday, which is really interesting and this is really nice. I think for people that like the BPM grind with the other upgrade packs that are out like the silver and the bronze ones. I think this is an SBC that will really help out your upgrade craft grind this week from another angle, which is kind of cool for the silvers. You're going to be able to get in golds from that pack right there. So not a ton of hyper on those, but yesterday was just a big SBC day and that's why I really feel like and I said it in the beginning a bit, but I feel like the tides have turned with foot birthday a bit. I think the way that I looked at this promo on Friday has completely changed. I really think that yes, the upgrades for some of the cards impacts do not look good. The Pedri upgrade was not that great, but the it will be upgrade was nice. I don't know why they can't say this is the DiSasi SBC foot birthday player SBC is how it's labeled. They don't even make I don't know what's going on here. Is this a rights issue? No dynamic image yet as well. I'm confused, but regardless, foot birthday DiSasi there it says his name, but foot birthday player is the name of SBC. So confused on that one. Anyways, you know, I just feel like this promo has gone from a very big disappointment on day one to now being at least a good bit better because of the swaps program giving out a lot of fodder for decent token prices and then there's just so many objectives to grind into craft to get the upgrade packs. Even if you're saving packs for team two because you hope team two is going to be better. Like man, there's still a lot to do right now in this game. I'm not even saving packs at the moment. I've got some of my weak and weak rewards packs that we just never got to yesterday on stream. So I mean, wow, look at that. Give me a walk out bring in some more fodder man. Portugal Cam Bruno a could have gotten Bernardo would have loved to have the other Portugal center attacking mid but boom, like I'll take those 84s 83s. I'll take the fodder and I'm not saving packs right now because I'm trying to pack Emerson. I think these icons like I got yesterday. Sometimes, you know, they just pop and all of a sudden you're like, wow, I just got an icon and that's crazy. So with the kind of craziness of SBCs, let's talk about the market and especially SBC fodder because I know a lot of you guys myself included still have a lot of big money in SBC fodder. Whether you've sold it whether you thought about selling it or you haven't yet. That's kind of the decision right now. When do you sell your fodder? If you have 87 rated and above 89s 90s and 91s have done the business. 91s are approaching 71K. Huge rises there. 90 rated cards are 57K. Huge rise. That's normally the price we buy 91s at, right? So I mean, these cards just keep going up because there's not a lot of tradeable supply. The weekend league rewards are done. The weekend, the lightning rounds are done. If I were you guys, I would think if you want to take the cash in the short term, I would sell the higher rated fodder before Thursday. I really would. But I think there's also a time and maybe a potential that if you held on to this stuff, it could keep going higher in the next week because a lot of these SBCs are going to still be here and Boppe, Cruyff, the Rivaldo, those are out for multiple weeks at a time. So I think you can also hold on to your fodder as well as they could continue to rise even as team two comes for foot birthday with those big SBCs still being out. So that's kind of my opinion there. The middle tier fodder, you have your 85s to your like 87s. They're up a little bit. 86 is jumped some yesterday with the year in review player pick, but not a huge jump. And really the low tier part of the market is not doing that amazing. 85s are up a little bit. 84 is almost the same price unless you got them at like three and a half K and 83s even went lower yesterday. 1.2 1.3 is what 83s were at. Those are very, very low. It's just the fact that we didn't have an SBC that is like repeatable multiple times. Like we didn't get like an 83 times 10 with like an 82 and an 83 squad inside of it. That sort of thing would have made the 83s and the 84s go up a lot more. So if you have those I club stocked a little bit of those. I'm still holding on to them. I'm not a hurry to get rid of them. Just hold on to them. Maybe next week they go up a lot more. But at this time it just looks like for this week unless we get some more SBC content they are not going to fly a ton right now. Just keep listening for Lazy's though. As you can tell I get a couple Lazy's every once in a while. Sold us a lot at 60 K sold the Casamiro at 117,000 coins bought that at 90,000 coins flat. So I'm lazy listing a lot of fodder at the moment and that's kind of the way that I would go about things and sell it before Thursday Friday. If you want to get out of them and then maybe look to reinvest in the weekend that is probably what I would do. But since there's so much kind of emphasis on SBC's those prices should keep rising up until we get towards the end of the week. Now for the rest of the market the saucy yesterday had a decent amount of movement caused a decent amount of movement on centerbacks because a French centerback let's be honest is always going to move the market especially if it's a decent value. I don't think these saucy's SBC is like a must-complete. Fofana right now with these two undercuts at 3D6 is a bit interesting but if you take a look at some of the French centerbacks on the market they did take a hit in price especially in that middle lower to your range Kalulu, right? We see this all the time. A substitute card came out of the game yesterday. A new French centerback even though he's not in the Serie A Kalulu going from 80K down to 63,000 coins. Even the Wesley Fofana that we just looked at who's 385. That's attempting price for me because he was 400K yesterday. He was technically down in the 370s. That's a price that I like a little bit better but this is a live card guys like a live card that is going to get upgraded. So that's why I'm kind of interested in that one there and maybe with the Kante SBC still upcoming. You know you have potential movements body of shill 138K down to 100,000 coins bounced back up about 10K. So as we see more and more daily player SBCs dropped in this game which we have another leak for one today. Watch out for the substitute cards cards your same position same league that people might be selling to go get the new SBC one. And then you could potentially trade with those like this body show onto 100K now back up to 117 Fofana of course was down to the 370 that we looked at and he is now back up. Now we do have a leak for another SBC player and we're still counting right for class and act we're still counting for you know Ozil Kante those big names that we have not seen yet. Michela Antonio is another one that's been leaked as an SBC or objective during for birthday. Another Premier League player again cue the jokes cue the comments about man this is such a Premier League based promo besides this League one objective for SBC that we got today in the saucy like so much Premier League and it's really true guys I struggle with looking at the market and really wanting to invest in some links to like Premier League cards as you take and think around some of the links for some these cards that would maybe go up as we get new releases not that trend would go up for a Michela Antonio but like Ben Ramos card right 51,000 coins for him I think that's actually back down yeah he was 50K when the League came out he went to 56 this is probably going to rise back up today as people might expect the SBC for Antonio to drop today on this game I'm just being careful with Premier League cards right now because a lot of them are just they're just inflated guys they're just up in price I look at the cool about okay 380 now I'm getting tempted alright show me a 370 and I'm in live cards I still like the live card part of the market for the most part right now but because yes they're up a lot and just be careful the ones especially that have risen in links to the potential upcoming SBCs like go to Bali for Conte or just so many Prem cards recently has driven the other Prem cards on the game up in price so just be very very careful with that but like I said I do like the live cards I like the foot fantasy cards I like the fantasy heroes that do have potential upgrades to come and as we get further on into this week terms of exploding upwards in price these foot birthday cards are just kind of chilling I don't expect these to go crazy because we're getting daily SBC content people are crafting people are really in the menu grind right now and that to me is more in-demand than buying these cards for teams we're looking for foot birthday team to how could the leaks be for that how could the hype be for team to the promo and you know during all that what do we have this weekend well we've got games guys we've got games and these players are back in action and upgrades are on the line potentially some plus twos for some of these guys with goals and assists and clean sheets and then the wins right I would take a close look if you want to invest in some of these cards go through the dynamic players foot fantasy list through a lot of these cards and maybe you look through the ones that have not been upgraded yet and you would probably not look at any of the heroes that have got to win because a hero that's gotten to win a lot of the upgrade potential is out there for the next couple of weeks but you look like more entes you know they play on Sunday that could be a game where you see a win for Real Madrid and his price goes up but just kind of look into some of these cards that are on the market that haven't had upgrades yet you may be say okay Rubidias this is this first game yeah they're playing against Liverpool not an easy game but you know what if for the flip side of the coin what if Jota comes out scores a goal Liverpool win if you were to score one goal and get an assist then bang it's a plus two right I mean not saying that's going to happen but that's the sort of stuff that I would look into with some of these cards if if they're still low and price compared to where they were and they have upgrade potentials on the line do a little bit of research do a little bit digging and those are cards that I would want to be kind of eyeing later on throughout this week from the fantasy team from the fantasy team one and the heroes as well just keeping on those because as we get towards the end of the week the hype is going to return to those even with foot birthday at the end of this video what are we expecting nearly on Tuesday another swap token like we mentioned swap token number 17 in total but number 15 that you can technically get right now kind of a confusing thing right unless they were to drop to today but the first owner fiesta is going to reset today we will be able to do this again I don't know if they switched all the timers EA did switch the timer on like the daily login after the mix up on Sunday because of the clocks changing but watch out for this out of there daily SBC player Ozil Klassenack Antonio or Conte one of those few I really feel like Conte might be later in the week guys actually Conte's actual birthday is Wednesday so if EA pay attention Wednesday would be a fantastic day for them to drop a Conte SBC although the SBC seems more fit for a Friday we'll have to see but that'd be super cool if they lined it up with Conte's birthday that'd be really really really cool and then the last thing I want to talk about is have all started early because of the international break at the end of March so watch out for potential player the month SBC leaks and information and news kind of dropping maybe as early as today on this game and you start hearing some leaks and stuff and of course always keep an eye out for for birthday team two leaks feel like we're a bit early for that but I think it was last Tuesday as well when those leaks started to come out for for birthday team one so that's kind of what's going on this game right now have fun packs I'm trying to pack Emerson still but again guys you never know what you can hit out of an 80 plus red listed EA pack luck streamer whatever you want to say crazy crazy that happened that's my biggest pack pull of the year and I'm not complaining whatsoever although George best does seem to be the most commonly pack pulled for birthday icon anyways chat just called you guys chat YouTube comments comment down below if you enjoy the video today what you're doing on FIFA right now I'm just curious to
