Sorare continues to become less and less fun as the flood in card supply makes it harder and harder to get rewards which also continue to go down. There are now so many lineups you have to submit that it takes a long time while it's barely enjoyable during matches. I did get some essence and used it to mint a Tier 5 cards which I got lucky on as it game a higher level players worth 20$+
Regular Season Rare Results
I did have lineups with 389 / 352 / 350 points but none gave actual card rewards but I guess the essence did pay off.

New Week Limited Lineups!
The Score requirements in Limited nowadays are so high that I don't expect anything whatsoever.
Player Transfers & Reward Card
I did another attempt at listing Promise David Rare at the lowest market price but it didn't get bought and it got actually undercut quite quickly. So I put him off the market again and hope to win another prize if he gets to kick another penalty or gets a decisive in another way.
Connor Roberts was the player I got from minting a Tiear 5 cards so I got very lucky on that one has he has an average base score of 61 and i assume he's also an international. I used him this week but might look to sell him next week as it likely will be the case that the value will only drop from here.
Season 2024-2025 Owned Collection Value
It's fairly easy to track your personal earnings on the Sobase.Football website. We seem to be at a point again where the rewards don't fully compensate for the drop in card values over time as more get printed and dumped on the market.
I am no longer putting outside funds into Sorare at this point and will track my total account value from here on out weekly. It's been pretty much a race to the bottom as sorare isn't able to come up with dynamics where card prices hold their value.

Conclusion
The enjoyment that I'm getting from Sorare surely has gone down a lot as they fail to fix some of the core issues. If I win something or manage to break even I'm already a happy player. Given the continued inflation, this is a game and not an investment.

Thats a solid T5 mint! I have been struggling to sell any minted cards. Having to resort to slashing prices every day as someone always undercuts. The liquidity is very dry and even the bots don't take majority of cards anymore. Sad state where sorare is in with the over supply.
Yeah, I also don't really see a solution on how they could turn things around. What they should start with imo is to set a maximum cards of 1 player that can exist based on the rarity. If the maximum is reached, an older card of that player needs to be burned to mint a new one. At least that would create some scarcity and an initial burn mechanic. Limited cards now feel like free common cards and Rare has turned into the new Limited. It's always the same with these games, printer goes brrr en economy colapses making it that a lot of players leave and nobody new is coming in.
It happens a lot with these types of games. In order to sell, you have to wait for another wave of interest.
Exactly, and the big question is if that new adoption wave will ever come. If it does you really can do insanely well but if it doesn't you are left with the worthless bags. These games by now should know better and in-game assets should always be backed up by some fundamental value. Instead it's mostly just money from players flowing in while it all goes out toward dev salaries which after a while just leaves a big deficit and too many assests printed.
