God Rare is the tier the whole hobby is built around. In a physical card game, the chase card decides what people buy and what decks people run, and Super Divers treats the God Rare as a genuine event tier rather than a cosmetic variant.
A God Rare is a card with full-art presentation and effects beyond what the rarity below it can do. In the 12th set there are eight, and the standard pattern is that each set introduces new God Rares alongside returning characters with updated cards — so a single character can appear in several rarities across a set, and the God Rare version is the one with the new, stronger effect.
Their practical value is that they unlock things nothing else can. God Rares carry stronger special moves, unique skills, and effects that shape the shape of a whole deck — a Boost God Rare that permanently raises an ally's combat power changes which cards you pair it with, and that is not something a stack of SRs will do.
Across the released sets the God Rare line has covered the main roster and some deep cuts — the 12th set alone contains Turles, Goku, Broly, Gohan (Youth), Gotenks, Super Janemba, Vegito (Zero) and Fu. The set also added Gohan: Youth as a new card for the campaign, which is a signal of how tightly set releases are tied to the current story arc.
The launch set established the pattern by pairing a God Rare Goku with the DAIMA characters, and the second set introduced the new Limited-type cards. The third set added more God Rares and new campaigns. The fourth set revealed the PUR tier, and the sets since have each brought a new batch of God Rares with a new set theme: All-Out Attack, Legendary Attack, Unified Attack, Furious Attack, Transcendent Attack, and now Innate Attack.
The Secret (SEC) tier sits above God Rare for scarcity. The 12th set's two Secrets are Vegeta and Beerus, and Secret cards also have Alt Art versions in their line. Because there are only two per set, the Secret is the card a collector is most likely to hunt for specifically — and the tier most likely to define a meta when its effect is strong.
Alt Art cards carry different artwork for the same card, and the distribution is uneven by design. In the 12th set, five of the eight God Rares have Alt Art versions, and the Secrets have Alt Arts as well. Alt Art is a collector's finish rather than a separate gameplay tier — the card plays identically — which means Alt Art hunting is about the physical card, not the deck.
The 12th set "Innate Attack" ran September 17, 2026 with three headline features, and the third is the most interesting for players who have been collecting since launch.
The Ultimate Bout series is worth understanding strategically, because it is the rare case of a set giving you cards for decks you already built. Ten PUR cards drawn from five earlier sets effectively rolls back the meta, which usually means older decks briefly get strong again and the newest God Rare loses some of its dominance.
The set also ran Movie Poster Cards as a campaign, and a Gohan: Youth giveaway. Campaigns run inside the machine alongside the base game, and each set's campaign rewards participation with its own card pool — which is why set releases are worth playing even if you are not chasing the sealed product.
The game's second anniversary was marked with a dedicated God Rare campaign featuring Frieza, running from November 5, 2026. Separate from the numbered card sets, anniversary campaigns distribute strong God Rare cards as event rewards, so they are the mechanism by which a player who never opens sealed product can still obtain tier-one cards — by playing enough games at the right time.
