Does Marvel Snap have a pity system?

The rewards present in Collection Level caches are balanced so all players of the same level have the same amount of cards, on average.

Marvel Snap’s pity system separates each player’s caches into groups of four. In each group of four, there is a guarantee of one card. This means the maximum limit of caches without new cards is six. In addition, there is a guarantee of a series four card within groups of 40 caches, that is, the maximum number of caches opened without a series four card is 79.

From the Collector’s Reserve, groups of four are divided so in each group of four, one will be a card, one a cosmetic, one is tokens, and one is credits or gold.
