The only way to get more cards in Marvel Snap is to increase your Collection Level. Every 4-8 levels, you will receive a mystery card that is not yet in your collection. The way to increase your Collection Level is by upgrading your existing cards using Boosters. Depending on the type of upgrade you perform, you can increase your Collection Level by up to ten levels.

Here is a breakdown of what upgrades constitute what level-ups:

  • Uncommon: +1 Collection Level
  • Rare: +2 Collection Level
  • Epic: +4 Collection Level
  • Legendary: +5 Collection Level
  • Ultra: +8 Collection Level
  • Infinity: +10 Collection Level

In order to upgrade your cards, you will need a combination of Credits and Boosters. How do you upgrade cards in Marvel Snap? Read on!

As mentioned, you will need a combination of Boosters and Credits to upgrade your cards in Marvel Snap. Credits are universal and can be used on any card you like. However, Boosters are character-specific and can be farmed by playing games with the card in your deck. After each match, one of the cards in your deck will receive a set amount of Boosters. Thankfully, after an update in November, cards with less than 20 Boosters will be prioritized, allowing you to level up newer cards more efficiently. 

Here is a breakdown of how many Boosters and Credits are required for each upgrade:

  • Uncommon: 5 Boosters + 25 Credits
  • Rare: 10 Boosters + 100 Credits
  • Epic: 20 Boosters + 200 Credits
  • Legendary: 30 Boosters + 300 Credits
  • Ultra: 40 Boosters + 400 Credits
  • Infinity: 50 Boosters + 500 Credits

The most value is obtained from upgrading from Common to Uncommon. This is the cheapest way you will ever be able to gain one level toward your Collection Level. Because of this, it is recommended to upgrade as many new cards as you can instead of focusing on fully upgrading one card at a time.

And that's everything you need to know about Progression in Marvel Snap!
