Depending on the card’s rarity, you’ll be able to disassemble it into CP. Pot of Desires (SR), for example, may be destroyed for 10 SR CP while Twin Twisters (SR) can be acquired for 30 SR CP. You can obtain 1 of your choice for every 3 SRs you trade in.

Each card rarity has its own CP: UR, SR, R, and N. However, we don’t know how quickly other rare items convert. Cards made using CP will have the default foiling, however, there appears to be a slight possibility of getting a different foiling.
