Fantasy FIFA Week 3
Rules:
1. You MUST submit your picks by 5:59 PM UK time on Tuesday. No exceptions.
2. Include the player, how many, and sell time when making selections.
3. You cannot go over the weekly budget. If you do, your picks will not be valid.
4. You may only submit selections once; to enforce this, include your Xbox/PS/PC username in the comment OR message me on Twitter if you don’t want others to know your information.
5. For this week, we will not have a prize as I am unsure of the fairness of the system. However, if all goes smoothly, expect a $10 gift card for FIFA points to the winner in the coming weeks.
6. All player prices are based on Xbox.
7. Sell times are for a general time frame rather than a specific hour. This prevents participants from buying up/listing up the market and rig the competition.
8. You CANNOT have more than 100 players total in your picks.

And finally i want ask you some questions (i’ts my first fifa, my objective it’s take CR (Love this player and RMD)), im new in the Fifa and in the market, i read it the best day for buy normally it’s the Monday, can you explain me at ¿what hour it’s better for buy? The other question i have it’s, for you what it’s the best method for invest? Today I invested in pre totw (Bathstuayi (BP 700 SLL 1100-1400) and Otamendi (BP 1200 SLL 1500-1900), and they give me now some benefit) and i’ll invest in marquee, but idk what it’s the best method for take money. The other question i have if what do you think about my invest for this tuesday : x 19 Romero (GK MAN U BUY PRICE 300 – 450) X 28 Marko Marin (MCO Olympiacos BUY PRICE 300 – 450) x 9 Lichtsteiner (Juventus BUY PRICE 750) And if you can give some advice for improve (websites or some trick) I will… Read more »
Welcome to the FIFA community Alejandro! The default best time to buy is Sundays following squad battle rewards. You have a lot of people opening packs all at once, and a lot of undercutting as a result. You can pick up some deals on BID/BIN during this time. Pre TOTW investing isn’t the best strategy going forward. It worked in the first weeks of FIFA because there was a limited supply of cards on the market, but now that we are over a month into the game, there is enough of a supply that these cards won’t increase in price much when they go out of packs. Marquee Matchups investing is a great way to make coins week in and week out. If you buy gold players at discard, there is no chance that you will lose coins, and often you will double or triple your investment. I like to spread my investments between 6-8 teams, and usually at least a few of those teams get chosen. As for “best” methods, it all depends on upcoming events. Last week I posted this article on how to invest during the “Scream” event. If you bought base gold cards on Friday like… Read more »
Thank you so much dude, i appreciate it your answer.
Unfortunately i forgot buy a base gold cards for screams but today i read it your posts about POTM and Traore OTW.
¿What you recommend? and ¿what is the best time for sell in this options? (sry for ask about sell time but i dont understand so much the mechanics in that inv methods).
And about for marquee matchups for invest you take in consideration some aspect (like nation, position) and for example i did a good invest with Marko Merin (It’s olym player, but for example when i search other silvers they cost x100 more)
And dont worrry dude,im learning english for read this site every week!
For Marquee Matchups, I like to look for discard gold cards from the nation of the league (Like Greece players that play for Olympiankos for this week, for example). I probably made around 25k off of 15 of those players today. The best time to sell is within two hours of when the marquee matchup is released, so between 6PM and 8PM UK time on Tuesdays.
Its best to sell OTW players either before the lineup announcement or after the lineup announcement but before kickoff. Its a bit of a gamble waiting for the announcement because the player might not be put in the starting lineup, and then people will sell him off. Either way, you should make coins if you buy the player following a match and sell in the couple hours before their next match.
As for POTM, you can either sell in the hype leading up to the announcement (the Thursday night before), or gamble and hold your investments until the requirements are announced. In my experience, its better to sell in the hype.
