 Hey guys, it's Nate, aka The Foot Accountant, and welcome back to the channel. Usually we get leaks and information ahead of time about what SBCs and upcoming content we're gonna get in FIFA 23, but this time, EA have put it in plain sight, at least one of the SBCs coming today as a part of Footy's content as Footy's continues on. We're gonna talk about that today and of course, one part of the market that I want you guys to be very careful with heading into the start of a brand new week. So if you're excited for Upgrade Pack Monday, drop a thumbs up on the video and of course, subscribe if you are new. First of all, we'll go back to yesterday and look at the content that was dropped on Sunday, which, to be honest, we had another great Footy's player, SBC guys. It's Jeremiah St. Juice, a overpowered beginning game FIFA card that everybody remembers the name of. I think was it FIFA 21 or FIFA 22 where he really kind of came up as a really overpowered starter card, three star skills, five star weak foot, center back and right back, medium high work rates. Guys, the interesting thing about this is he is very, very pacey. He has 97 sprint speed, he's got really good defending stats and I'm just a fan of the price. Six foot one, of course the links aren't that good but he's a premium, right? So he gets those three chemistry points regardless of the squad that you put him in, 60,000 coins for this SBC. This is good Footy's content, right? This is what we're used to when it comes to Footy's content, right? Cheap player SBCs, good value, craft ability and since they're premium items you can just plug and play them basically into any team. It doesn't help out with a lot of links unless you're using League of Portugal players in your squad or maybe some Netherlands links but really nice SBC here, right? Again, it's cheap, we love it. It's good enough. It's actually great stats. You wanna see something crazy. This 93 St. Juice day, technically if you wanna go down to the statistical level it has more total stats and more in-game stats than Raphael Veran's 97 rated card. Now of course you're like, Nate, look at the defense and physical. Yes, absolutely, the differences are in the shooting, the passing and the dribbling from St. Juice Day to Veran but still five million coins plus 25 games for this card and 60,000 coins for this one. That's why this is good content because you get a really, really nice level card even if they're not a one-to-one comparison it's just kind of fun to see that, right? I know that there's already people in the comments who are like, Nate, you can't compare those. I hear you out. They're completely different. Veran is just him in-game but a card like that for 60K with those stats, hey, I'm not gonna complain at all. So we love that EA, keep that up. That's what the content that we wanna see throughout the rest of this entire week. We absolutely love that. Now yesterday we also had the promised upgrade packs return. Now for me guys, I'm not gonna do these. Obviously I'm gonna do it once, right? I think we all have to do the premium mixed leagues upgrade one time in the mixed league upgrade one time to get XP from it. And I don't even know if this really changed that much from the SBCs that expired yesterday that these were refreshed with. I think it maybe even has the exact same requirements inside of it or at least very similar. But the ultimate bronze and ultimate silver upgrades if you want to do this bronze and silver into gold menu grind right now, this is really, really fantastic guys. This is a really, really good grind. They're unlimited repeatable, especially if you're needing gold commons. You can get them out of the ultimate silver upgrade pack, turn in 11 silvers and you get, I think is it eight gold commons back. That's a really, really solid pack there. And especially it's gonna help us out with today's content that is upcoming as well. So we'll look into that in a second. But also yesterday we had the 93 plus tots or shapeshifters player pick SBC that was re-released. Of course, not a surprise there that was expected. Other than that, not that crazy of a day. No new cards added into packs. I don't even know if there was any new packs added to the store. If there were, it wasn't that crazy because we already had the big 250 players packs and the 500K pack was already in the store. So kind of a quieter ish day, I guess you could say on a Sunday. Now hopefully today it picks up with content specifically in the upgrade pack department. Now we already know the upgrade pack that we're gonna be getting today guys. It's not a surprise. The same place that we looked to get our XP from those SBCs that were dropped yesterday, we're looking and noticing again that we are getting the 80 plus player pick SBC today. And at first glance you're like, yay, why an 80 plus? We've had an 81 plus a couple times. Now we've even had an 82 plus player pick recently. I think it was during shapeshifters. Why are we going backwards in July? Now the only thought that I have to this is maybe they're only gonna require like five golds or maybe they're gonna make it like instead of a one of three player pick, maybe it's gonna be an 80 plus and one of five. I don't know, maybe give us more options. Nonetheless, you guys know what to do. It's a Monday. What are we gonna be doing? Stocking the club with some gold commons. Gold commons right now are basically discard. 300 coins a piece, 350 a piece. They're already starting to get bought up actually at 350 a piece. So I would get on some bids, get on some snipe, stock your club. If you have any aspirations of doing upgrade packs or player picks for this footies promo. Now you're like, Nate, is it really worth doing footies upgrade player picks while, you know, Ronaldo and Alvarez, Di Maria Gomez and these guys that are in packs are super crazy hard to pack. Honestly, it probably is worth stacking a few player picks this week guys just with the best stuff that is in packs. You never know, a Vander Star, a Hullet, a Diño or some of these other really high rated cards that are just good fodder at the very least. As a part of footies best of batch one, you could hit one of those out of a player pick and that could mean better SPC fodder for you in crafting. This week is really gonna be a week about crafting all the Centurions cards we're gonna get from SPCs. It's really EA is gonna get us to do. I'm gonna find myself in this exact same position. If you're doing any sort of upgrade packs this week, EA is just kind of gonna rope us in to doing SPCs. And that's why I'm hoping that they continue to release good player SPCs so that we have a reason to use our duplicate fodder that we get from player picks and other packs from objectives and stuff and rewards to actually get some decent SPCs done. Of course, we have a good amount of them here. Vardy, Josaloo, Carvalho. Another transfer SPC is definitely needed this week, St. Giustate, but keep the players coming from footies EA. That would be very, very nice. It's gonna be a good crafting week, honestly, if you wanna grind at the game. Now we should have another upgrade pack as well. Was it last week that we had the 85 times seven? I think it was, but then the week before that we had the 83 times 25. Guys, I would expect 100% that we're gonna get some other sort of upgrade pack today and a lot of people might be already thinking this, as I'm saying this, is it 85 times 10 season? And to that, I think we're a little too early. I really think we're a little too early. Maybe that we would get an 85 times 10 today, but it would be just repeatable once or maybe once per day, that sort of thing. That's the type of other upgrade pack that I'm expecting to see today, whether it's an 85 times 10, an 83 25, or an 85 seven. Again, something along those lines I would imagine is gonna come today. And a lot of people are gonna be interested in doing it with the cards that you have in packs for best of. I mean, packs just kind of look, for lack of a better word, pretty at the moment, right? When you have all these other different special cards and promo cards in them, even though these cards are like literally discard value as a lot of the Centurions are in packs right now. And I think winter wild cards is another one that people are probably sick and tired of packing already. And yeah, we're gonna be packing these guys for 10 days because that's how much longer this batch of players is in packs. But that's gonna be a draw for people, right? That extra fodder that you can get, the extra higher ratings, so that upgrade pack, hopefully is dropping today. I'd love an 85 times 10. I'm not saying that I don't want it, guys. I'm saying it's probably a little bit unrealistic, but it could happen, we'll just have to see. So another thing that could happen today, we mentioned it yesterday, the Pablo Maldini Foot Birthday Icon SBC has been leaked. That's the only leaked SBC as of right now. As we saw yesterday, Foot Sheriff I think leaked. The SBC for St. Jude's Day, like a couple hours before content, literally 45 minutes before content. So yeah, maybe watch out for another leak today of a player SBC that could be coming out so far. They're three for three on player SBCs every single day on this game. So maybe we'll make it four for four today. Now, with the content that we saw yesterday, let's also talk about fodder, right? We're talking about, you know, the craft ability we're talking about good fodder in player picks and in packs, what's the best of, and fodder prices yesterday didn't really move that much because the 93 plus, although I thought that was a really popular SBC, it didn't really move the market that much. Now, some of these cards did have some movements and it's actually really interesting how a lot of these gold cards, guys, have better versions in packs. Take a look at some of the cheapest 85s. You go from 5,000 coins for a few of these guys and then boom, you're straight up to 6k for Jared Moreno, who's out of packs, you're now Aspas out of packs, shick out of packs. It's very interesting to see that some of the 85s that are in packs are down and some of the other ones that are out of packs are in fact up, right? That makes sense, but some of these 85s are club stockable again, right? The investment that we were talking about yesterday didn't necessarily mean, we didn't necessarily mean it was all gonna go up yesterday on Sunday. I would say maybe stock a few more 85s if you want to because I think, especially if we get an upgrade pack today that has a lower rated squad requirement, also we're still waiting on the 90 plus icon player pick to come back at some point during the week this week, which it hopefully will. So the same ratings we talked about yesterday. If they are low, I would say not a bad time to stock up on a couple of those. I think maybe some of your 91s had a bit of a spike yesterday. Lewandowski is 32k. What did he do yesterday at content? Yeah, they had a little bit of a spike, but then they went down a little bit. 28,000 coins for him and now he's back to 32k. So Fodder had a bit of a spike yesterday at content but really other than that, it's not moving a whole lot. I think it's gonna continue to move up throughout the week this week. And again, guys, I would say this, if you're looking for a last minute move, get on 83s on bid. Now, 83s are probably gonna be a bit more accessible today via player picks, but with the 40s batch one player pick that is out, the potential that you can get Dino, you can get Hullad or just another good team of your icon card out of that, I think people are gonna be crafting these all week long, especially like when you get a duplicate Aspas, Centurians or a duplicate card, it's easy to throw it into this. Get yourself a team of the week somehow. That's probably the biggest barrier to get this SBC done is the team of the week player. But it's very easy to craft if you have a team of the week and a higher rated card as a duplicate, throw into that player pick and at least get a chance of getting something fun. So again, I think that's gonna be the mantra for this week. There's gonna be a lot of people crafting and doing SBCs which is why I'm interested in the fodder side of the market. Now, speaking of the market as well, I know there's not a lot going on. Prices are really just kind of stagnant, right? You know how you have some things moving up and down. Finally, we had some price drops on some of these footy cards that are in packs, specifically Joe Gomez. I'm sure St. Jude, they had a little bit to do with this yesterday just because that was a really cracked card. Gomez is down to about 770, he was still 900K yesterday. I think Julian Alvarez is down a little bit. He was still 2 million coins and we looked at him on yesterday's video and now he's like 1.9 or 1.8 million coins somewhere in there. So these guys are definitely down a little bit. The cards that I'm more worried about though are the level ups. This is the time I believe last week that some of the level up cards from team one started to take some even bigger drops. Guys, this Veran card, I know we compared him already kind of to the St. Jude's Day, but this Veran's 5.2, 5.3 million coins. Remember how much KDB and Renato dropped off last week, especially towards the end of the week? But I'm trying to get you guys on the front foot. We're trying to talk about this ahead of time. If you're doing Veran, if you're doing Goretzka, if you're doing Gabrielle Martinelli, Chau Mani, any of these guys that maintain some value in level up team two, get the cards completed, get your games done ASAP because once we get towards the middle of the end of this week, these cards are gonna drop and get panicked once again as the objectives are about to go away. And you might be like, Nate, are we gonna look to invest in these at the end of the week? Yes, we are. When KDB goes from a million coins to 1.8, right? We're definitely gonna be interested. But remember how much KDB dropped down in that week last week, right? From 7.3 mil all the way to a million coins on Friday, literally his minimum price. And then going back up to now 1.8, which is absolutely crazy. That card is that much on the market. The rarity there is kicking in big time. But for these level up team two cards, the objectives go away soon. So just be careful with those. For the footies cards, man, shoot, if you're gonna try out, you know, D Maria, if you're gonna try out Gomez, Ben Acero, even I would just keep it to quick flips, guys. I would not hold on to those cards for very long because I mean, they're just, I just think they're very overpriced. And whenever promo cards like this are very, very overpriced, it just scares me a little bit to hold on to them and to keep them in the team. Unless you don't care about losing coins at all at the stage of the game because, man, the rarity, I mean, these guys are definitely overpriced. For where we are right now in the end game, this being 2.4 million coins, we're no although going on day four, today's fourth day of the Footies Promo. This guy is still extinct on the market, nowhere to be found with his max price of 15 million coins. It's just, again, this is the part that we, again, like I said in yesterday's video, I've never cared less about promo cards in packs personally. Yes, there are some nice ones, but I mean, with the state of this Footies Promo, the way that it is in those cards, being in packs in the first place is just a little bit underwhelming. So to capitol off, just keep an eye on some of your shape shifters and there will probably be some decent price movements upwards today on the market. I mean, I picked up a Zaha at like, I think I bid 200K flat because he was like 220 during the day yesterday. There's still some primarily hype. I was looking at the Gomez, I was looking at the Delict because Delict is a card that fluctuates a lot. I would tell you guys, if you're trying to make coins right now in this game, just literally go to Footbin, search through the most recent promo teams, shapeshifters, Tots cards and level ups and look at the graphs. Seriously, just click into these cards, look at the graphs, whether it's a cheap budget that you're on or maybe a middle to higher tier budget, like this is the Luis Figo Striker card, 302,000 coins. What's he been in the last day? Where's he been? He's been between 330 and like 290, right? So like this Figo, if I saw a 295 undercut, that would be a price that I would want to buy or looking through a couple of these other teams I had my eye on, who was it? I was just looking at a shapeshifter card. Anthony Martial, 795, right? Really for this, I want like 760 or 770 because every single day he goes to about 840 and I know he's getting supplied and weak in the rewards, but even 895 on Saturday, there's not a lot of supply for a guy like Martial. The young would be a one to watch, petite. So I would still be trading. If you want to grind the market, if you need coins at this stage of the year to keep moving and keep being able to participate with content, absolutely get on the market and grind because you can just get on bids, get on fluctuations and the trades are gonna be there 100%. Is this a fresh Martial right here? This one that just popped up. First owner tradable. Imagine finishing week in league and getting that. That is pretty crazy. So again, not to belabor the point guys, I know the content right now is just not all that we want and all that we expect, but it is at least very grindable. I'm gonna start playing the cup today, probably gonna get that same juice day done and try him out in the cup. At least play my five games to get the XP if we're able to win 10 during the week that would be fantastic. Get ourselves an 85 times 10 and all the fodder packs that go along with it. So hopefully EA continue to drop good SBC content because that is what Footies is all about.
