Is it time to separate the "grind" from the "glory"?Today, I’m putting forward a new proposal for the future of the platform: removing Hot Streaks from Sorare Pro. While streaks have become a staple of the weekly routine, there is a strong case to be made for moving them elsewhere and letting the Pro division return to what it does best—pure, unfiltered PvP competition. Instead...

I sat down today ready to air some grievances about the end-of-season grind, but honestly? Maybe it’s just not worth the energy. The European season is gasping its final breaths, winning in-season cards feels like winning a gift card that expires in ten minutes, and crafting is… well, it’s a choice. But instead of just a venting session, let’s talk about how we’re actually spending our time (and l...

Is Sorare moving away from "lifetime utility?" In today’s episode, we’re tackling the psychological and financial divide between failure and delayed success in the Sorare 26 ecosystem.

We are back with Part 2 of our deep dive into the future of the platform!

In today's episode of Sorare with Laird, we are breaking down the entry costs for Arena competitions. With the European seasons winding down, is now the perfect time to buy the dip?
