Every single regular item can be of two types: common or rare. Most gamers think that rare cards, with their bright and luminous aspects, are better than the others. They believe that rare cards were created to help players easily distinguish the best cards. It is not true.
The rare cards are items that have something unique. In the case of players’ cards, for example, the rare cards are assigned to players that have something that no other player has. It can be the tallest goalkeeper of his league, the only player from a country in a particular league, or even a CB with an exceptional attribute compared to players with a similar overall.
These items are usually more valuable than the others, mainly because their discard price is higher.
