SELL, SELL, SELL!!Just got a gaige FOIL card!!!! HELL YEAH!!!!
You have to be level 10 for foils to drop. Every 10 steam levels you unlock a new showcase for your profile.Wait, so how do foils work? I thought foils were just uber rare and anyone can get them, but people here are posting as if it's related to Steam level somehow? Do you need Steam level 10 to get foils? Is steam level actually useful for anything other than e-peen?

But if I've unlocked all the cards already with a lower than level 10 profile, is there any chance of more dropping once I get to level 10? Is there a new cap for foils?
And how do you increase your level other than buying cards and using them to make badges and such? I don't care about any of that stuff and am not willing to put money into it.
Anyone at level 10 know how likely it is that foils drop in any case?
if you unlocked all your cards already you won't get anymore from those games (aside from dota 2 and TF2 if you pay more money) you would just have a chance of getting foils on other games as they get cards.
as for increasing your level without buying cards to make badges...(or trading for them) the sales have badges and you get 50 exp per year you have been signed up for steam... aside from those, and crafting badges the only other way i know to get some exp on steam is to release a game on steam.
I'm 87xp away from Level 9! Quick! Fastest way to get to Level 10! Buy cards?
I hope someone decides to release a game on Steam just to get a higher Steam level.
How much is a Gordon Freeman foil worth? Got one of those.
When I got my foil, it counted towards the total drop. It's only 1 foil per game at level 10 and I still picked up the other 3 cards for HL2.But if I've unlocked all the cards already with a lower than level 10 profile, is there any chance of more dropping once I get to level 10? Is there a new cap for foils?

$15 to $20 seems to be the going rate.How much is a Gordon Freeman foil worth? Got one of those.
So lets say I got card drops from playing portal 2. If I sell them or trade them then replay the game can I earn more of the same cards?
Collecting the whole set and crafting a badge gives 100 exp, an emoticon, a coupon and a profile background. At level 10, there is a chance to get foil cards. Every 10 levels, you get a showcase to display your stuff.So I figured out I have cards for BL2 and TF2... I'm so confused. Should I collect all BL2 cards to get that badge ? What does it do ?
I'm guessing foils are extra rare drops or trades?
Yes.
And I guess foil badges give you more XP, but you have to get a full set of foil cards so that's pretty insane.
They have a chance of dropping instead of normal cards once your steam profile level is 10 or above.
To get it as a drop atm yes, otherwise you can buy/trade for one.So you have to have drops left for a game to get a foil for that game?

Mostly nothing really besides raising your e-peen. You can't get the whole set by yourself. Need to trade or use the marketplace.
If you get to level 10 and happen to get a foil card. You can make some money selling it.
You'll have to wait for more events that will have badges to obtain such as the summer sale.Anyone know if it's even possible to get to Level 10 without making badges? I'm at level 6, but then again I do only have 2 years on Steam, perhaps there were more events I missed.
What's the deal with those level 5 badges? Do you have to complete a set multiple times or something?
yep, re-aquire same cards again and again
