If you have a degree how can you not understand simple supply and demand?

I have 1mill coins. I spend 600k on packs with a return of 100k. I now have 500k with the other 500k simply gone. My 500k is now theoretically worth twice as much.

If everyone does this there will be less coins around and more players. Decreasing player value and increasing coin value.

You have a degree. Cool. Well done. Now get a real education.

And don't call me kid. I have 6 years on you.

Mega facepalm. Yes mate, EVERYONE has 1 mill coins and spends 600k on packs. Let's forget about the profit that thousands of ppl make from buying and selling cards from investing and of course the constant coinage from games, which has by far the highest effect on coin supply in the market.

I see what you're trying to say. Coin supply is shrinking so it's worth more. That would be true if the coin supply was actually shrinking. The coins from games with all those multipliers, tourneys and seasons for the majority of people that play the game and don't have millions of coins to spend will lead to an increase in the coin supply. So it should be worth less

Look at players in terms of goods in a market. If the value of goods are decreasing, then there is a deflation in currency, i.e. it's worth less. It's a basic theory and happens in recessions + markets all the time.

Just out of curiosity what do you do for a living? You have a degree and I'll be naive and buy it. It could only be a level 3 at most though.

Coins aren't being made up by games. The proof is in the pudding player prices are going down because there are less coins. So coin value increases. I've answered your question about why coin to fg prices are increasing and I honest to God have no idea why you are arguing against blatant facts.

Less coins + more players available means coins are worth more.

It's so simple it actually hurts.

I've not insulted you. I've tried to explain to the best of my ability the answer to your question. This comes from experience not from any bullshit. Why can't you just accept this, say thank you for the answer and we can all move on with our day.

I already said that what you said is right in theory, but it's wrong in practice because there aren't less coins. Not everyone is blowing 1mill on packs, but everyone is earning a fuckton from playing games with multipliers, plus coins from tournaments and seasons

Try buying a maths and economics degree at birmingham, or better yet, actually meet the entry requirements to get in and do media studies or whatever you like.

Been there. Done my time thanks.

I'm honestly done arguing. You need to get a refund for your BTEC.

I have no idea what your problem is.

If it helps you sleep at night thinking I don't have better qualifications or that I'm smarter and better looking, then by all means do that.

I have a HNC in engineering. I really don't have to believe anything.

I know you're trying to be clever and failing miserably, so i will keep my explanation as straightforward as possible.

You concede Irvine is correct in theory but not in practice.
Coins are being removed from the market at a much faster rate (with people purchasing them to buy packs in hope of profit) than they are returned through games etc. Hence, the number of coins available on the market is reducing.

Simple supply and demand, bruh.

prove it. atm im right in theory and practice
