Maybe it is just me, but I see something trending. Whats happening appears to be a complete (gradual) reset of the team compositions / buying strategies etc ...

Auctions: provides 3* and 4* players - cheap! - predominantly built to service token non-buyers or token non-farmers who would run and maintain their teams at 4* levels max... 5* may appear but would be too risky for these managers to risk a bidding war
Negotiations: Provides 4* / 5* players to those managers who spend moderately or those who have access to token-farms. Limited token supply will drive non-competitive , guaranteed purchases
Scout: For the weird ones!
