Hey !

What is the advantage to buy Mysterious Cards ? Does it give you something special ?

Thanks,

They are Winter sale cards. They will go active then.

It's a mystery so far!

Nah, I'm sure some Steam veterans can tell you more but in short: they're most likely going to be used in the upcoming Holiday season event. For what... I dunno. I also don't want to know so I'll be unsubscribing from the thread :)

I think they're funny though... I just got a few and the top says "Tradable & Marketable after: 12/20/2019" whereas the bottom props of the card tell you: "Non-Marketable, Non-Tradable".

So yah, even if they won't be used in an event I still think they're awesome because... extra gems at the very least!

So they are useless because they are the same as the winter cards ? x)

That's because the cards you used to craft the badges had restrictions (most likely from market).

In my case, my mystery cards are tradeable and marketable.

5 years on Steam and you don't know the meaning of the mystery card?

The mystery cards will be converted into 2019 Winter sale event trading cards likely on the 19th of December when the sale drops. You get them from crafting badges. You'll need 8 different types of mystery cards to complete one badge set. Each badge set gives 100 exp.

It's 8, not 9

my bad lol I saw 9 on the market. Didn't realise there wasn't a card for 1

Yeah, not sure why they did that. Oh well, won't matter once they convert.

ohh, they drop already?! Nice that they do cards again!

And yes, these are for the upcoming Winter Sale Event. They will be "unmystified" then. Same every year.^^

The cooldown only applies if you purchased cards for crafting on the market. Those have the 7 day cooldown and everything you craft with them will have it too. People usually have full sets ready to be crafted as soon as the sale cards drop. Those can be sold right away.
