    Match Attax 2026/27 Pull Rates: What They Actually Mean (And How To Get Them)

    Every year around this time I get some version of the same message: “what are the actual odds of pulling a dream chase card in the new Match Attax?” This year it’s an even bigger question than usual, because the 2026/27 UEFA Club Competitions set – Match Attax’s 20th anniversary release – launched with a completely new tiered rarity system on top of the old favourites. More tiers means more confusion about what’s actually rare versus what just sounds rare. So let’s go through the real numbers.

    The short answer:

    across a Match Attax 2026/27 Display Box (35 trade packets plus a guaranteed Hero Pack, £65 from Topps), the base rarity tiers run from roughly 1 in 6 packets up to 1 in 216 for a Hyper Rare parallel. The big insert chases sit well beyond that: All-Time 100 Club is about 1 in 12 packets, Infinity about 1 in 24, WHOOSH! around 1 in 540, Enigma around 1 in 2,160, and Mystical Full-Art – the rarest card in the whole set – around 1 in 4,320 packets. Nothing guarantees you a WHOOSH!, Enigma or Mystical card; the only genuinely guaranteed inserts come from specific product formats, not luck.

    What are the rarity tiers in Match Attax 2026/27?

    This year’s set introduced a proper tiered rarity system for the first time, layered on top of the collection’s usual chase-card culture. There are two systems running side by side, and it’s easy to mix them up:

    The base-tier system covers your Base Cards, Leaders and Attax Debutants, each with colour parallels running Rare (green) through Super-Rare (yellow), Mega-Rare (pink), Ultra-Rare (gold) and Hyper-Rare (black). Topps’ own materials state these run from roughly 1 in 6 packets for the most common tier up to 1 in 216 for Hyper-Rare.

    On top of that sits the insert/chase-card system, which is where the real hunt happens: All-Time 100 Club, Infinity, Mirror Foil and Rainbow Foil subsets (Man of the Match Wildcard, Power Play Signature Style, Slick, Attax Master, Goaliath, Fortress, Genuine Genius and Attax Supreme Master), and finally the three ultra-rare chases – WHOOSH!, Enigma and Mystical Full-Art.

    The real pull rates, tier by tier

    Here’s what’s actually confirmed for the insert chases:

    • All-Time 100 Club – 9 fan-voted legends plus a bonus Ronaldinho “All-Time Unbeatable 101” card – roughly 1 in 12 packets
    • Infinity – a 9-card holographic puzzle set – roughly 1 in 24 packets
    • WHOOSH! – 10 Hyper Rare chase cards – roughly 1 in 540 packets
    • Enigma – 10 ultra-premium Hyper Rare cards – roughly 1 in 2,160 packets
    • Mystical Full-Art – just 5 cards, the rarest thing in the set – roughly 1 in 4,320 packets

    For context on how steep that climb is: you’re 360 times more likely to pull an All-Time 100 Club card than a Mystical Full-Art, and even WHOOSH! – itself a proper chase card – is still four times rarer to land than Enigma is common, if that makes sense (Enigma is four times harder to pull than WHOOSH!).

    What does that mean in an actual box?

    A Full Box is 35 regular trade packets plus one guaranteed Hero Pack, for £65 direct from Topps. Working purely off the stated per-packet odds across those 35 regular packets, on average you’d expect to open a WHOOSH! card in roughly 1 box in every 15, an Enigma in roughly 1 box in every 60, and a Mystical Full-Art in roughly 1 box in every 120. Those are averages, not promises – pull rates describe the long run, not any individual box, so plenty of people will open several boxes and get nothing, and a few lucky ones will hit one on their very first packet.

    That’s exactly why the Hero Pack matters. Topps confirms every Full Box’s Hero Pack guarantees a Super Rare base parallel, an All-Time 100 Club card, an Infinity card, and a 20th Anniversary Limited Edition card – regardless of the packet odds above. So if your actual goal is “I want an All-Time 100 Club or Infinity card for certain,” a Full Box already gets you there before you’ve opened a single random packet. WHOOSH!, Enigma and Mystical have no such guarantee anywhere – they’re genuinely down to chance, whichever product you buy.

    Who’s actually in WHOOSH!, Enigma and Mystical?

    Worth knowing before you start chasing:

    WHOOSH! (1 in 540): David Beckham, Désiré Doué, Florian Wirtz, Harry Kane, Jamal Musiala, Lionel Messi, Max Dowman, Pio Esposito, Rayan Cherki and Ronaldo.

    Enigma (1 in 2,160): Bruno Fernandes, Christian Pulisic, Erling Haaland, Hugo Ekitike, Jude Bellingham, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Lautaro Martinez, Mohamed Salah, Raphinha and Vini Jr.

    Mystical Full-Art (1 in 4,320): Bukayo Saka, Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe, Lamine Yamal and Michael Olise.

    Note that Haaland appears in both Enigma and Mystical – two completely separate cards, two completely separate (and both brutal) sets of odds.

    What’s the best way to actually get one?

    If you specifically want an Infinity card, a Starter Pack (3 packets, £-value entry product) guarantees you one, plus a 20th Anniversary card and a Tactic Combo Card – genuinely the cheapest certain route to an Infinity, rather than gambling on packet odds. A Full Box’s Hero Pack does the same job for both Infinity and All-Time 100 Club in one go.

    For WHOOSH!, Enigma or Mystical, there’s no shortcut – no product guarantees them, so it really is a case of packets opened versus luck. The only lever you can genuinely pull is volume: more packets opened means more shots at those odds, nothing more mysterious than that. If your budget only stretches to a handful of packets, it makes more sense to go in expecting the guaranteed inserts (base parallels, Mirror/Rainbow Foil, and an Infinity or All-Time 100 Club if you buy a Full Box) and treat a WHOOSH!, Enigma or Mystical pull as a genuine bonus, not the plan.

    A word on where these numbers come from

    The pull rates above are Topps’ own stated packet odds, and I’ve cross-checked the specific figures – and the WHOOSH!/Enigma/Mystical player lists – across two independent sources reporting on Topps’ official release materials, so I’m confident in them. The base-tier odds (1 in 6 to 1 in 216) and the Hero Pack/Starter Pack guarantees come directly from Topps’ own UK store and its Ripped blog. As always with a set this new, individual box variance is real – these are the rates Topps has published, not a guarantee of what you personally will open.
