In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Zod” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 3177 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3496 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Zod” meme mean?

The term points to the figure of an amateur streamer revealed through massive media support. It expresses surprise at a spectacular technical and visual metamorphosis. The dominant emotion mixes admiration for the final result with amusement at the initial contrast. It is used to evoke a radical change or an unexpected discovery in the live streaming world.

Where does the “Zod” meme come from?

The origin dates back to July 20, 2021, when the video 'SOS Streaming: 3 days to become the best' was published on Squeezie's YouTube channel. Creator Benjamin Siess, accompanied by Locklear, visited Maxime, an amateur streamer nicknamed fr_zod. The team completely transformed his room and equipment over three days. The project aimed to push a beginner toward professional visibility, inspired by TV formats like *Pimp My Ride*. The video lasted over an hour and generated significant buzz around Maxime.

How to get the “Zod” card

Every pack holds 5 meme cards, the first 3 of them Common; Zod comes out of the Memes FR pack as a common card. The pack odds say what each rarity weighs.

Your first pack is free and needs no account. After that a new free pack lands every 10 minutes, up to 3 waiting for you. You can also buy the card with MemeCoins on the market, bid for it at auction, or trade it — and a double recycles into 5 MemeCoins.

The reprint of the “Zod” card

The “Zod” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 5,126). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.

Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.

MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
