Over the last few weeks, players big and small have voiced frustrations with the current state of FIFA 18. The FUT Brothers discuss this low point in the game cycle -- and maybe a low point in the game's history -- and why this vicious cycle continues to present players with unfortunate circumstances year after year.

After the talk about negativity, we take a look at the Lunar New Year promo, what it could do to the market, and if this promo could rejuvinate the investing community. Nick presents his best investment options from TOTW 22.

In our FIFA Mobile segment, we share our thoughts on the Carniball promo, and how one simple change by EA took it from a good event to a great event.

Nick and Jack also discuss Winter Ones to Watch SBCs, when to buy and sell investments and take a look at the new Team of the Week.

And in this week's FIFA MOBILE segment, Nick and Jack share their progress on the End of Era tree. Nick beefs on Vs. Attack, which has become more and more difficult to play as he progresses through the ranks.

The market is *booming* at the start of the Winter Ones to Watch promo. We knew the market would recover after TOTY, but many investments are up because a number of promos are coming up soon – and maybe because hype around the game is changing. Nick and Jack take a look at the market from all angles in this week’s episode, and explain why making money in this type of market is easy, even if you’ve made bad investments or are just starting out.

 

Plus, The FUT Brothers review the Winter OTW roster and TOTW 20, share their thoughts on the latest gameplay patch which promises the end of the kickoff glitch, and freak out about another opportunity to get Pirlo (PIRLO, PIRLO, PIRLO!) on FIFA Mobile.

OK, so we didn't pack a TOTY card. Surprised? What shouldn't shock you is the way the market has recovered in the days since the TOTY promo ended, a good sign for investors who made buys when the market was down. We're taking a look at how much the market has recovered, and which cards were the best buys.

We also look ahead to the next big promos -- Ratings Refresh and Winter Ones to Watch. Is it too late to get in on investments, and what should you do if cards in your club have gone up in value in the hype?

Plus, we're taking a look at TOTW 19 and diving back in to the world of FIFA Mobile.
