|---|---|---|---|---|
| Corbin Carroll | 85 to 84 | 3,000 | 1,500 | -1,500 |
| Hunter Greene | 85 to 83 | 3,000 | 1,200 | -1,800 |

What do the Quick Sell changes mean?
The tier change resets the guaranteed Quick Sell value of each card. Rafaela received the largest increase at 3,000 Stubs, while Raleigh lost 2,400 Stubs from his previous floor.
At 4:10 p.m. ET on Aug. 14, all six new Diamonds had a Buy Now listing equal to their new Quick Sell value. That was 4,500 for Rafaela, 3,750 for Dingler and Rasmussen, and 3,000 for Miller, Tatis, and Olson. Market orders can move, so open each linked card page before buying or selling.
If you hold one of the five demoted cards, compare its current Sell Now order with the new Quick Sell floor. A tier drop lowers the fallback value, but it does not mean every open market order immediately matches that floor.
How big was the full roster update?
The update contains 518 overall moves, 120 tier changes, 15 newly added players, and 55 position assignments. The complete Aug. 14 roster update has every rating, attribute, tier, position, and new-player change in one place.
What should you check first?
Start with any of the 11 cards already in your inventory. The six promotions have higher guaranteed values now, and the five demotions have lower ones. Check the live market order before using Quick Sell so you can compare the two values directly.
For collection planning, the new Diamond group matters most because the same Live Series items now sit at a more expensive tier. Use the linked player pages for current listings, then open the full roster update if you need the attribute changes behind a specific OVR move.
