With the end of the 2024 USL Championship Season, the “season” is also winding down here at Club Collector for 2024. Here is some information about the ending of this season and information about the upcoming 2025 season to help prepare.

What happens when a season ends?

When a Club Collector Season ends, any card sets from that season will be unavailable for collection in new packs. The past season card sets are archived, and only new or current season card sets will appear in card packs.

Don’t worry, you will not lose your collection of archived cards. Your cards belong to you, always and you will be able to view them in your collection at any time in the future. Any duplicate Common cards you have will be removed however, and only a single copy of common cards will be left in your collection. Duplicate copies of Uncommon cards will always remain in your collection.

There will be chances to still collect archived cards from past season however; archive packs, auctions, Matchday awards, and other upcoming features will still allow collection of out-of-season cards.

Only 25 Basic Packs can be carried forward into the new season

If you have more than 25 basic packs in your account when a new season starts, you will received a caps credit of 5 caps per basic pack in excess of 25 packs. Meaning, if you have 28 basic packs unopened in your account when a new season begins, your account will be left with 25 basic packs unopened that can be opened for new season packs, and your account will be credited with 15 caps (3 basic packs in excess of 25 packs at 5 caps per pack - 3 x 5 = 25).

Matchday and other Special Packs cannot be carried forward into the new season

Any unopened Matchday Card Set reward packs in your account will be automatically opened, and the cards will be added to your account. The same goes for many of the packs distributed via special pack codes in 2024, including but not limited to the following:

• Dikwa Day Pack
• Tifo Video Pack
• RIFCNation Pack
• Anchors Up Pack
• Raising Anchor Podcast Pack
• Tide Talk Pack
• First US Open Cup Pack
• Training Camp Sendoff Pack
• Defiance1636 Pack
• Tide Talk Live Pack
• Quahog Corner Pack

All other Uncommon Packs are carried forward

All other pack types (limited packs, rare plus packs, etc…) will be carried forward into the new season for you to open against the new season Card Sets. If a pack type is purchasable, then it will be carried forward unopened into the new season.

2024 Season End Date

The 2024 Club Collector Season is tentatively scheduled to end January 31, 2025 with the new 2025 Club Collector Season staring February 1, 2025. This will give collectors over a month to begin collecting new 2025 cards in preparation for Matchday 1 of the 2025 USL Championship Season. (These dates are subject to change.)

Due to the later release (end of the USL regular season) of the Season Leaders Card Set, this set will be available in packs in the new season until March 31, 2025 to give collectors a bit of extra time at collecting cards from this set.
