FC 24 Black Friday Market Crush Guide - Should You Sell & Buy Your Players Now? 

Black Friday is a highly anticipated annual promotional event that typically takes place in late November, coinciding with the real-world Black Friday sales. The EA FC 24 Black Friday promo features a series of special, limited-time offers, promotions, and in-game events that can significantly impact the FUT market and provide exciting opportunities for players to enhance their squads. While the EA FC 24 Black Friday Market Crush can offer players some advantages, it is important to know the best cards to buy and sell now!


Best Cards To Invest For FC 24 Black Friday

1. Centurion Cards

  • CB - Lewis Dunk (85)

Lewis Dunk has a rebound after the crush on Saturday because of those new center back Evolutions that came out to the game. The boost wasn't insane but it was definitely usable. A lot of people will do it since it's free but the pace boost is only plus two. Lewis Dunk who had crashed from about 57k to 44k has rebounded back to 50,000 EA FC 24 coins now which is great. Because that extra 6,000 coins is making us about 300,000 more coins in profit on those Lewis Dunk cards.


  • ST - Negredo (84)

When it comes to investing in new cards, our focus needs to go right back to fodder. Fodder is going to be a pretty good price over the next few days, it's all about timing it perfectly. Because we don't have a lot of great leaks, Negredo is supposed to come as an SBC over the next couple of days and his card absolutely changes everything. 


  • CB - Thiago Silva (89)

This card maybe a little bit more desirable, EA really need to boost his pace and that is going to help that Thiago Silva actually be worth doing. But in the end, we’re not sure how many people are going to do that Thiago Silva and we don't know if they're going to make him 89 rated either. So we've got those two SBC's coming out in the next couple of days, but either of them are absolutely game-changing crazy and going to move the fodder market.


2. Folder Cards

You've already got 90 rated cards down from 56k to 49k, you've got cards like the 89 rated sitting at 36,000 coins which doesn't seem like too great of a deal in comparison to what it has been over the last few days, seems pretty normal. You've got Kimmich 88 rated at 24k, you've got players at 87 rated at 16k but the 85 rate are inflated because of that icon SBC. Same thing with those 84. If we take a look back to last year, that is the big difference.


  • CAM - Thomas Müller (87)

For example, Thomas Müller was an 87 and the was sitting at kind of the same prices all throughout the month. On the 12th of November last year, he was about 15,000 to 16,000 coins. It's not different at this time of the year. When it gets closer to Black Friday last year, these cards skyrocketed in price up to 23,000 coins. The reason that the fodder goes up in price for Black Friday is because Black Friday is a pack selling promo, EA want to make money and if they make fodder expensive, it makes packs more valuable, more worth opening. If 87 only go for 9,000 coins, then 83, 84 and 85 are close to discard price, then packs aren't very valuable and it's hard to sell 100K packs on the market. Especially when fodder is that cheap, you don't need the fodder, you don't need those promo packs, and it just doesn't work out for them.


Black Friday Investment

You can go out and club stock some of 87 rated, 88 rated and 89 rated cards and just put them into your club one by one. You can get one Kimmich, one Patri Guijarro, one Osimhen, one Popp. Once you get done with all the 88, you move on to 87 and you get all the 89, just throw them in your club until they skyrocket on EA Sports FC 24 Black Friday promo event. 


3. Low Budget Cards

For the low budget cards, you're not going to see quite as much movement during Black Friday. These cards are going to stay relatively similar price but they are going to rise. The profit margins are going to be a little bit higher on those 87, 88, maybe 89. 


When To Invest?

What they do every single year is they make fodder expensive during Black Friday so that they can sell more packs and so that's the idea behind it. Be on the lookout for good deals over the next week or so that is the buy time and then these cards go up as Black Friday Market Crush EA FC 24 gets closer. To be noted, they could drop a little bit more over the next week so it is time to invest. Make sure you are prepared now because that is a profit margin that is tough to ignore. 

88 went up more than 87 because of SBC requirements there were more 88 needed. A lot of times, they'll say you needed at least two players that are 88 or above in this team to get the SBC done, so those cards went up much more last year and that could change this year. But fodder in general goes up a ton. For example Kimmich who was about 27k at his lowest point, maybe about 30,000 coins on average during the month. But as we got closer to Black Friday went up to 37k and then spiked all the way to 55,000 coins which was on the Black Friday promo weekend. So that is exactly what we're going to be investing in over the next few days because even though we do have to hold that for a couple of weeks, that is worth investing in.


4. Road to the Knockout Cards

  • RB - Sildillia (83)

Sildillia was 21,000 coins and unfortunately he hasn't really moved a ton. Which kind of sucks because some cards go up. There is a downside to the fact that we invested in him as a center back. Center backs in general went down a lot more because of that new center back evolution. People are selling their tradable center backs getting that evolution center back and using that instead. So it definitely did not help Sildillia investment. However, you can still hold until Wednesday, then sell into the hype. It's a little riskier though because they could start seeing a dip thin and you're also  risking the fact that if they don't sell and their game starts, then anything can happen. Just be very careful with how you trade with these RTTKs. 


  • RB - Dodô (84)

When we look at some of the other players like Dodô who is strictly a right back and not more of a center back like Sildillia. Dodô is a card has risen and it's gone up a very nice amount very quickly. He's gone from about 990,000 coins all the way to 117k. If we see a dip in the morning, then we can go in on some of these Road to The Knockouts. 


  • CM - Modric (92)

With these Road to The Knockout cards like Modric, there is going to be a buy window after their match. If they win the game but you probably want to sell before Friday before the upgrade even happens. 


  • ST - Lewandowski (93)

Players like Lewandowski, it might be a different story just because this card's going to be 94 rated and those stats are absolutely insane. He's 730k, now he might get closer to 740-750k by the time you want to sell. But his game is on Tuesday so we wouldn't hold too much longer. Either way, these RTTKs have made us absolute bank this year and hopefully that s Dodô will go up at least a little bit.


When To invest?

For the most part, everybody who has invested in these RTTKs, you're going to want to hold for maybe another couple hours. You're probably going to want to sell anybody who plays on Wednesday, sell those guys on Tuesday, anybody who plays on Thursday, sell those guys on Wednesday. That's generally how it goes, you sell 24 hours before their game roughly and you take your profit and get out of there. You can always reinvest in these cards after they win their match as those cards still get panic sold. 


Black Friday Investment

  • CM - Modric (88)

Take Modric Road to the Knockout card as a great example. When he played his match which was nearly two weeks ago, he obviously rose into the hype of that match, peaked at about 385,000 coins and then he dropped very hard as we got closer to that game. This was about 24 hours before then he actually won the match secured an upgrade and still dropped really hard in price to 300 and 30,000 coins. You could have reinvested right there, taken the profit, reinvested even after a win and then he went back up in price. The problem is that there's no potential of another upgrade afterwards and so this rise in price that we've seen over the last week and a half is not going to be the same on these RTTKs anymore.Once they get their final upgrade which is on Friday after they secure their first or second place in the group.

If they secure first or second and clinch, then they will get an upgrade on the subsequent Friday after their game as long as EA are competent enough and care enough to actually update the cards. 

Anyway, these cards are probably going to follow a similar trend until that Friday. Then once they get that final upgrade, some of those cards might spike up especially if they give them a little bit more of an upgrade than we're expecting and make them super usable. But a lot of people are going to have investments in that card waiting for the upgrade and then right when that upgrade comes out, they list and then undercutting ensues and then those cards end up dropping in price. So be very careful with these dynamic cards.

Overall, be very careful with RTTKs since normally and almost always, it's just not going to work out.


5. SBCs (Centurion Challenge)

Centurion's challenge 4 which was absolutely terrible value but we're going to get Centurion's Challenge number 5. Given how bad value challenge 4 was, they’re going to make 5 good. SBC solution trading is when a new SBC comes out, you're going to go over to FUTBIN active SBC's and then you're going to click on the challenge, you're going to see which challenges say that they are the cheapest. 


When To Invest?

Especially ones that are created not even 2 minutes ago, instead created 2 seconds ago, 10 seconds ago or 19 seconds ago. You click on that SBC, you see which cards are in that squad and you go out and buy a few of them before they skyrock it up in price. The reason that they go up is because of the fact that everybody who sees that says cheapest on the SBC will just click it and buy those cards. 


  • RW - Yang Hyeon Joon (68)

Despite the fact that players like Yang Hyeon Joon is 250 coins according to FUTBIN, he might already be 3,000 coins on the market after 30 seconds or after 1 minute and people will still buy him.
