Sorare.com | Making Small Rookie Mistake...

in crypto •  last year 

I've been getting ready for my 2nd season playing Sorare.com aiming to also compete in the Rare Cap240 League on a very tight budget. I got ùy 9th Cheap Rare Player cards last week making a small mistake there in the process...


Right now I reached the maximum of 9 cards in order to also still be allowed to enter the Kickoff Rare Tournament. I do want to buy some extra cards while waiting to sell some others which would put me above it so I need to make a choice there. This probably will be the one where I just stay disciplined never going above 9 players owned always on the lookout to sell players in case they do well or in case I don't have much use for them anymore.

1 New Rare Cards Bought

I still needed 1 more Midfielder or Attacker to reach a total of 9 players and my eye fell on Dino Hotic thinking I was doing a great deal since he was one of the better players in Cercle Brugge who didn't extend his contract to make a transfer. This along with the fact that he didn't fully suit the high intensity style from their new coach got him in the position of super sub making his average score drop to just 30. The transfer he made was to Lech Poznań and after quickly looking into it I figured he was going to get a score for his matches in the Polish league while no more cards were going to be printed. They also play in Europe and from what I know he's also part of the Bosnian National Team or at least has a chance to. However I was mistaken as he only will get a score from matches in Europe and for the National team which highly limits the use-case. Way back a Limited card used to go for 50€+ which made me too quick to pull the trigger on a 20€ rare card. I'm sure that at one point I will be able to put him to use but rather have not take him up a spot out of the 9 players that I own so I'm looking to sell him again likely at a slight loss. I'm looking at this as a rookie mistake to learn from

Other Player News

There was good news for other players that I own though as Prevljak who I anticipated to make a transfer potentially to Anderlecht singned for Herta Berlin will play in the 2. Bundesliga next season and he will get a score on all his matches. The price for him went from 59.68€ which I paid to now around 90€ and I will likely look to take profit as I prefer to have players in the Belgian league since I much better can monitor those. Warleson very much looks like he will be the #1 goalkeeper in Cercle Brugge as he played in the Friendly Match against Monaco (which they won 3-0) while Didilion can league. He will get some competition from Maxim Delanghe and I don't fully rule out for him to be the 1st choice but I see it as less likely. The Price for Warleson went up from 200.84€ when I bought him in speculation a month ago to now 318€ and it has the potential to go up more if he does confirm the #1 spot even though the downside risk is higher now. Alzate looks like he will stay with Brighton and get his chance and he's another player I'm looking to potentially sell to have funds to buy another Belgian League player.

(** Expected Sell Price After Fees)


So during the coming week, I'll be looking to potentially sell 1 or 2 players (Hotic & Prevljak) while I have my eye on 1 Midfielder from the Belgian League that should give me a lot of use case as he is very reliable as one of the first to be on the player sheet paying all minutes when fit. I am also on the lookout for a reliable scoring striker who is affordable which is a bigger challenge.

Conclusion

I reached my max capacity in Sorare on my rare team for the 2023-2024 season and next week will be the first one where the regular season starts and I'm highly looking forward to it.
