# 9.1. Card Types

There are four types of cards: Units, Events, Weapons, and Hero Cards. Cards can be obtained from packs, from other players through the Marketplace, and as rewards from Tournaments and other Events. After a certain time, some cards will no longer be available from packs or rewards, and will only be sold in limited quantities by other players that have acquired them previously through the Marketplace.

Using a wide variety of cards is essential to grasp victory. Saving the correct cards for the right moment and keeping single-use Event cards to play them when they would be most destructive to the enemy are all parts of the cunning strategy and tactics expected from Storm Warfare players.
