The PSA system in Quasar Trading Cards allows players to evaluate and enhance the value of their cards by assigning a permanent quality rating. This feature mimics real-world card grading systems, adding depth, strategy, and competitiveness to the gameplay.
What is a PSA System?
A PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator) system is used to grade the condition and value of collectible cards. In Quasar Trading Cards, this system includes:
1
Quality Rating
A score from 1 to 10, where 10 represents perfect condition.
2
One-Time Use
Cards can only be rated once, making the decision strategic and impactful.
3
Permanent Rating
Once rated, the score is attached permanently to the card.
How to Use the PSA System

The item applies a quality rating to a single card.
