 Hey guys it's Nate aka The Foot Account and welcome back to the channel. Another day, another upgrade pack on EAFC 24. This time a player pick though and some confusion with the year interview player pick that was dropped yesterday. It says icons are a part of it, but should all icons be a part of it? That's the question right now in this game, there's a lot of confusion as to whether there's going to be compensation in coming or if this player pick pack is giving out what was directly said in the description. We're going to talk about that today and how that player pick was really the biggest piece of content yesterday with the other SBCs not being that hot, but could that turn around today with an English legend being released today as an SBC? Will it impact the market big time? Will we get more evos right yesterday? No evos today. Will that change? We'll talk about it on more in today's video. If you're excited for it, drop a thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Let's get on with yesterday's content to start off with. We're going to go for the player SBC and it honestly was disappointing. I've had high hopes two days in a row now, maybe I need to lower my expectations because not every SBC can be amazing. That's just how the cookie crumbles, but Kevin and Babu yesterday, he did get a great playstyle plus upgrade with Jockey Plus, but 89 pace just doesn't quite cut it. Four star, four star is nice. It's also the dribbling stats on the card. If you look at his defending, it's okay. Physical, it is okay. He needed more pace and he needed better dribbling to be completely honest, but the playstyle plus is good. It's not a bad SBC guys, it's just not quite good enough. It's probably the best way to say it. It's coming in right around 90,000 coins, but I think a lot of people's expectations like mine were higher and this is a card that doesn't fit into teams very easily so if you're going to get it done, you're going to do it, it's got to be a really insane card or a really, really insane price and it's really neither of those. Again, it is not that difficult to get done. There's two squads, 83 with a team in the week and an 85, so if you want to get it done for the good old FIFA vibes of old, this guy's a FIFA legend for sure, you can go ahead and do that one. Now let's get straight to it. Let's talk about that upgrade player pick that came out as thick because this was the only other piece of content that dropped. It is the year in review player pick, right? I've done it. I got a decent pull from it. I got 88 Vanden Boomen, the FC Pro live card, but this player pick always contains in the past that this player pick has always been SBC or objective players from like the last month or the last couple months in this game, right? That is what we have always known as a year in review player pick. But if you look at the description of this specific year in review player pick, it says earn one of three base icons or campaign players that were released through SBCs and Ultimate Team 24 in November. No campaign heroes and no campaign icons. And that is where it's got people really questioning and is this a situation where it's giving out the wrong stuff because people are getting packs and player picks like this. Ali Krieger, who is an SBC, Alan St. Maxman, SBC during November, right? Black Friday Flash SBC and then R9 and other icons that technically weren't released as SBCs during the month of November. It's all about the technicality of the wording guys and EA messes up with the wording all the time and that is where this problem lies within. Again, the wording says earn one of three base icons or campaign players that were released through SBCs. So you can either base that together and put that together and say base icons or campaign players that were released through SBCs or you can look at it separately and say earn one of three base icons or any campaign players that released via SBCs, right? So a lot of people are thinking, okay, what icon should be in this player pick? Maybe Schmeichel, Lahm, Stoichkopf, because we had those as icon player SBCs during the month of November, right? John Barnes would be a part of that as well. They were not special versions. They were just the regular versions of their base icon cards. But technically, the way that that reads and again, the real issue here is that EA worded it in a way that is confusing. Okay, guys, like the issue here is with the wording. That's what it is. We've had problems with this before EA has messed up with the wording in this, but to me, it reads earn one of three base icons or, right? There's like a cutoff there. And it's a base icon or you're getting a campaign player. So it's like an icon player pick and a campaign year and review player pick combined. It's confusing. I know EA should word it in a different way. I don't know what they should word it as, but I know they should word it in a different way so that it is not so confusing. But guys, I do not expect there to be compensation. If there was going to be compensation for this player pick, number one, EA probably would have already tweeted about it because when player picks and packs like that get messed up with the wrong stuff and packs, usually it's within a handful of hours, two, three, four, five hours before the EAFC direct communication tweets about it and then it's okay. You know, there's a plan in place here where they take the SBC away, especially for an SBC like this. There's been errors before and they fix it in at least a couple of hours. And I know it's kind of the holiday times. Maybe there's less people working, vacation, offer work, stuff like that. I get it. But guys, with the way that that reads and what is coming out of those player picks, I think EA meant for all base icons to be in that player pick and along side of the year in review cards that we normally see in those sort of player picks. So if you got an icon yesterday, consider yourself kind of lucky. I opened mine and again, I got Vanden Boomen 88, which is actually a sick card and I'm happy for it. But the people that got icons, I would consider pretty lucky because we opened a bunch of them, that video's on the second channel. I'll post it above if you want to check it out there. At the end of the video, I'll post the link there as well. They're decent, right? For $100,000 coins to the value of the SBC, yeah, it's like, OK, you can get icons from this or you could get some SBC player who is absolutely terrible, right? There's a lot of L's in this player pick for sure, but it is only two squads and it is pretty easy to get done. So it's a nice craft, especially with the 83 times 10, all the fodder and objectives. I think it's a decent SBC. A lot of people agree with that, 58% uploaded. It's kind of one of those that's like, yeah, it's a gamble, but you know, people pack in Puskas, people pack in Pelé, guy in the chat yesterday packed Ziko, right? You know, it happens. So that SBC is being done by a lot of people and here's one reason you can tell always with the fodder, we know this, right? There's an inform requirement, right? This is, informs are really a nice, I guess, barometer of how much SBCs are being completed, especially when a new SBC comes out and they're being required. Informs yesterday went up from 32, 33,000 coins to about 39K. In my opinion, that's probably their max price for the week if you have these, or maybe kind of try to get them out because that is another really insane rise for informs in a one day period because of a one gamble pack SBC. I don't think any of the other SBCs that we've had are refreshing in the next day or even two days. I think it's maybe to Friday before we get like the icon player pick refresh. Don't quote me on that. I have to do a little more research and figure that out. But I didn't do the icon upgrade myself so that the countdown timer doesn't show for me. That's the worst part about not doing the gamble SBCs because I'm doing a whole it right now and crafting that instead. But I don't think that informs would continue to go up that much throughout the rest of the week, especially with a new team of week coming out today, more lining rounds for sure. They might be impacted a little bit by that. Now the one thing I will check really quick is when does the team of the week player pick go away? Okay, that's out until Friday as well. All right, GGCA, that's out for a while. We love that, we need that. Now, one part of the fodder market that did move specifically because of that player pick was 84s and 85s. We had some fodder move. GG's EA, GG's if you're invested in 84s or if you are buying them for like 1.5K on bid. Literally on any time over the weekend or 85s if you were buying those for like 4.5K on bid, low 4K range. These cards are all going up in price because of that SBC yesterday. Cause there's a lot of hype there, right? Everybody loves a year and a few player pick cause they're cheap and especially since EA through icons in, you can see, right? 4.2K for this card trippier going from 4.2K all the way now to 5.5. These cards are really starting to fly. They probably go a little bit higher day in the content. I would probably sell if you have these in your club or if you've been lazy listing those, I think I would sell those before content today on Wednesday cause I would expect to see more lightning rounds from that day. So that's kind of all the content yesterday and some of the market movements that we saw. But let's talk more about the market a little bit, right? We talked about the market hopefully rising a bit and really the market yesterday was still kind of scared is how it felt. Like, yes, some cards did go up. Some cards went down and get at content. Kind of the daily trend is you get a dip right after content even if the content like yesterday was decent but not that insane. You get a little bit of a dip and then you get some price rises the next day, right? You have an opportunity to buy then you have a little bit of a bounce back into the late night and then the next day before the next day of content you have some decent rises, right? I saw that on a couple of cards yesterday. I didn't buy too much but I did pick up a Paul Scholes, a couple Paul Scholes at like 67,000 coins that's like 75K. I saw another one. I picked up a Ledley King for like 51K. I think I can maybe sell this for like 60,000 coins or 59,000 coins. It's a small flip. But again, that's the part of the market that I'm trying to watch right now in the most. You know, other prices on some top tier cards yesterday even did really well. Edinburgh LaTow dropped off a crazy amount. He was down at 640,650,000 coins on the stream and I was telling people specifically like, yo, if you see this card at 640 and under, I think it's a really good buy for the day. I don't know where he goes from beyond this point but that seems really low and he's back up to 700,000 coins. Another one that I would shout specifically is Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Jesus' card with a lot of the arsenal links right now in the SBCs. He was down to 120,000 coins and he's right now 140K. He's like 125, but now he's 140, right? You're having those price fluctuations, not everywhere but in some pretty, I don't know, meta popular, lower budget price cards on the market in those areas. That's where you're seeing some of those good fluctuations but guys, I would stick to the quick flips. Honestly, if I were you, just because we didn't have a day yesterday where we had an evolution that was dropped and all the evils that we've been having recently have been absolutely insane. So there was no panic selling because of a new paid Evo or panic selling because of an Evo that was dropping cards out or people were selling cards because they're doing an Evo to replace a card in a team. There wasn't any Evo panic and while there wasn't any of that and you had a couple of market rises, there could be some more today. So I'm still a little bit worried about the market which is why you still see me have like most of my coins. I still have some other cards here on my transfers for sure. Like I'm just re-listing for Lazies for the most part. A lot of that stuff, so all my VVD golds but I'm a little worried about the market today which is why I didn't spend a ton of coins yesterday. Took the coins on the Viali, that was a tax loss there but we're gonna make it back on some of these other small flips that we have. So I'm not worried about it but I'm still a little bit scared for the market and this is why, all right? We had some leaks yesterday and we had some more price movements and stuff to talk about the market because of this and evolution is added to come to all the teams soon. The name is Keep Up. Max Overall 85, Max Pace 85, Shooting 65, Stamina 75, Aggression 88, No Playstyle Pluses and the players gain Jockey Playstyle Plus which is a very good one. Jockey is a very, very, obviously when you're defending jockeying is insane and especially with the Playstyle Plus this is a really, really good evolution that's gonna add a really meta playstyle to probably a defender or at least a defensive midfielder that you would wanna put this on. And the interesting thing with this is people after seeing this tweet are going out and investing. If you wondered why Saliba is on the popular page of Footbin all of yesterday. He went from 2,000 coins, 2700, all the way to 9K. Almost extinct, not quite, but almost extinct because he fits that evolution. Also, if you saw Raphael Varan, I got caught up in a little bit of this unknowingly because of this leak but Raphael Varan, his inform was dying yesterday because people thought he was gonna be in the evolution. This version of Varan is up right now. Guys, he does not fit the evil. If you're investing in this card I would probably sell it in the hype because he does not fit this evil. He has a playstyle plus already with the anticipate plus and that was one, unless it ends up coming out and it does not have a max playstyle plus as a requirement, Varan will not fit this because his gold card already has that. So be very, very careful there with that one. But this evil, along with a striker evil that's been leaked as well. If you just noticed like the front page are the most popular players in Footbin right now are all cards that are like extinct for evolutions. Evos have fully taken over this game. Adiyemi is a perfect example of that as well. That striker evolution that is leaked, either that one or this keep up evolution I think is gonna drop today on this game. But as you can tell with Adiyemi he has gone from yesterday being 1,500 coins. He went to 6,300 and right now he's 6,800 coins. His price is flying. Whatever that striker evil is, whatever evil he fits. I don't think it's this one yet because max pace 85. There's another leak for another evil out there somewhere and it must not have a pace like requirement on it because bro has 96 pace. So if he's got 96 pace and he can fit in this then a lot of other cards are gonna fit in this as well. Maybe it's like a big shooting passing or shooting and dribbling boost. Maybe dribbling and passing who knows. We'll have to see. But there is definitely gonna be an evolution I think that comes today. Whether it is this one or whether it is the striker one and once again that could create some more panic, some more selling on the market. So just be careful is all that I would say. Watch the cards that fluctuate. Maybe take some cash which is probably what I'll do on the McMahonman and the king that I have here. Maybe the Barela as well. I've just been kind of lazy listing that one. Probably gonna take the cash and some of those quick flips because one of those evos could be insane once again and every single evil they've dropped has been insane. When will the trend stop? Will they ever drop an evo that's not that exciting and insane that people actually will not wanna spend a lot of coins on or want to go ahead and do? I don't know. We will have to see. But I would expect that as a part of content today. Now more content today as well. We mentioned it in the intro but besides the evos, we do have another player SBC. According to our list that we're gonna keep looking at we're almost halfway through this if you're annoyed by this graphic already. Kind of like I am. We are almost halfway through. Today is Wednesday, December 27th. We are getting ourselves a Bobby Moore SBC. This could be big. This could be big for a center back card or I'm kinda hoping that EA don't do this but maybe they change up his position like they've been doing with a lot of the other icons for Winter Wild Cards in this game. He is a 70 paced icon card with 92 defense and the Anticipate Plus playstyle three star weak foot and of course a legend of the game. You know, I think of a Bobby Moore center back card. I think of this one. A lot of people used this card last year in FIFA 23 because he got the massive paced boost. Got a massive passing boost as well. Drilling boost, the defense stayed the same, right? Like 92 defense from this card. He's got 92 defense in his card this year. If they give him a good passing, drilling boost probably boosts his weak foot to four star as well. It'd be nice. He's got other good play styles like long ball pass, jockey block, press proven and of course the Anticipate Plus. So I'm hoping that today's card is also a center back with some paced with the English links. That would be pretty cool. But will EA go out of their way to do something different and to, you know, like they've been doing with a lot of the icons do something crazy with it and give him like maybe center defensive mid position or who knows, right? A lot of the icons you can see almost like half the team. Like almost half the team of these icons that have been released. It's probably easier to look here in the game. You know, you've got Vanessa Roy goalkeeper, Rush center mid. You've got Fernando Torres with the five star skills and a completely different play style plus. Butra Guanyo left wing, Stoichkov center attacking mid, right? A lot of these guys we're not going to be able to get. So will EA put another position changed icon in SBCs? We'll see. That's my number one question with that Bobby Moore today. I kind of hope they keep him the same as I've already mentioned. But if whatever position he is, if he looks cracked, if he's a good SBC, there could be some further panic there on the market, or see if it's a center back. I really feel like if he is a center back, that could end up hurting some prices. I'm not saying, I'm not telling you to not go invest or to buy any center backs. I have center backs, right? I've got the Ledley King. And I did have some timbers on my transfer list. But a lot of people are investing in this Verran because he's going out of packs today. I won't say maximum going out of packs. People are investing in those. So be careful especially with the center backs today. But we'll see what the position is when they drop the SBC for the big man, Mr. Bobby Moore and see what it looks like. And then of course we're getting a team of the week today as well. But there's no real leaks about that unless I've completely missed him. I don't think I've seen a leak yet about the next upcoming team of the week. But I do expect to see another one of those of course as we do every single Wednesday. EA loves to do lining rounds for a new team of the week. Also side note, yesterday they dropped some extra 10 and 30 coin packs. It was kind of crazy seeing how many that we were able to open yesterday, which I'm not complaining about for sure, but it was just different. I liked that from EA. GGs, appreciate that. And then of course they did run plenty of lining rounds yesterday. The 8410s come back almost every single day. The 81 time, 100 on tradeable. They're everywhere, man. It's just the market is one wild place right now. I'm sticking to quick flips. I'm not even trading a ton. Like I'm more involved in the evolutions and the gameplay I feel like than I am on the market. Just a kind of a scary place, right? But at the same time, there's been good ways to make coins. Now one thing I want to look at as well is a leak that goes past today, guys. And if you wondered why, Neymar was everywhere on foot been yesterday for a while. This is the tweet. And I want to explain it to you, right? FIFA Trading Romania, who's been spot on with a lot of leaks recently, tweeted out this. This is kind of like a hidden mystery tweet that you're supposed to decipher. He does these a lot. He's got the cold emoji, the fire emoji, the Brazil emoji, and the dolphin emoji. And if you deduce this correctly, maybe you remember there was a card design. It was added to code a couple of weeks ago. That was the fire and the ice promo, right? We've had that in the code for a while now. We've got a Brazilian flag. And we know this is a big player because there's a lot of bomb emojis here, right? It's like a news bomb, right? You could say. And then you've got a dolphin. And so this guy writes up something here that he thinks it has to do with Pelé because dolphinio, and then he says no. And then another guy who will leaks a lot is ASY4Trader and he responds with a Neymar GIF and FIFA Trading Romania responds with an emoji that means pretty positively that we are getting a either fire or ice Neymar. This is a leak here, fire or ice Neymar, or a flashback. I saw some people talking about a flashback, but to me, the ice and the fire in this tweet means that the fire and ice could be for the upcoming promo version of Neymar. So if you wondered why Neymar was on the front page of football yesterday, like a lot of other gold cards have been recently because of evos, Neymar is not being evolved. I doubt you'll be able to evolve Neymar until at least after like a team of the year. But his cards have been fodder for a minute now. So hey, who knows? Imagine an evo Neymar, by the way. The day that Neymar can fit into an evo, that would be crazy. All right, I'm just looking at his card thinking 86 pace, 83 shooting, 85 passing. We're not that far off if they don't require dribbling, I guess a playstyle plus might hurt his card as well. And 89 rated. It might be until after like foot birthday before you can evolve Neymar. But anyways, there's gonna be a special version of Neymar coming, whether it's fire rights or a flashback we'll have to see, but that's why his price is up. He was like 37K, now he's 43,000 coins. Guys, I don't know what this promo is on what's gonna happen on Friday. It seems like it's gonna be another week of Winter Wild Cards. We still do have some more Winter Wild Cards players that have been leaked that have not been dropped yet. So if there is more leaks of other Winter Wild Cards players maybe there's gonna be a team three. I don't know, it's just very confusing with how long these cards are in packs, right? The team one of Winter Wild Cards is in packs until Friday. The team two is in packs until next Friday. And then of course the Winter best of is in packs only until like Monday or Tuesday or something. So it's really confusing, we'll have to see. I hope it's not everything just dissolves from packs from right now and this is all that we're gonna get in packs. I hope there's at least something that comes this Friday as well because if there's not, then that might mean really good things for the market but probably won't mean as great a things for content on this game. But that's gonna be the video for today, guys. Make sure you get your rivals games in. It's a big day for that because you have rewards tomorrow and keep working on those evos. I'm really working hard right at the moment to try to get my Ragoni evolved. I just finished the Trey Cartes at the time. I feel like Tiki Taka playstyle is maybe a little bit underrated. This card feels completely different with the Tiki Taka plus. Even 75 rated gold card, he's got 79 passing but with that playstyle plus really changes a lot for him. So I'm super excited to get this card to five star skills, play some games with him and then I gotta put him through Budding's Starlet still and the midfield dynasty and he's going to come out a five star, five star absolute beast. So keep an eye on evolutions once again today. There might be more Wednesdays in the early stages of the game we're very common days for evolutions so we will see what happens there. And of course you got your refreshes every single day, 83 times, 10s and all of that good stuff. So be on the lookout for all of that but I think it's going to be the video for today guys. I hope they drop a good Bobby Moore today too. You and me both, all right? Drop by the stream today. That link is down in the below in the description. If you want to check out a video of us opening those your interview player picks and talking about that yesterday live on stream, I will link that right above here on the second channel. But if you enjoyed today's video drop thumbs up on a comment below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new and native on account. See you guys in the stream today. Peace out.
