Marvel Snap’s Card Rarity Explained

The rarity of a card is determined by its Pool or Series. The higher the Series number, the rarer the card becomes. Currently, the game features five Pools from which players pull new cards. Consequently, cards from Pool Five are rarer than those from Pool Four, Three, Two, and One.

Players should note that rarity is not a fixed status for Marvel Snap cards. Due to Series Drops, each Pool Five and Pool Four card will eventually go down to the lower Series and become common. However, this rule does not apply to the Big Bad cards, the ones that are always in the highest Series.
