World Champions Cigarette Cards locations explained

Cigarette Cards are often found throughout the world, usually in drawers or in loot boxes, so come prepared with some silent lock picks if you want to not cause much trouble.

But, before this we will need to ensure that you have completed the Stranger mission to find the reverend at Flatneck Station. Doing so will add extra cards to the map - one for each set - and allow you to sell them all afterwards for bonus rewards.

What rewards are those? For the first of any set, you'll get the Vintage Civil War Handcuffs - used to craft a Talisman - while for the World Champions specifically, you'll get Valerian Root.

Once you have one set complete, then the Cigarette Cards requirement of the 100% completion total for Red Dead Redemption 2 is then ticked off. Of course there's plenty of others once you're done, from Dreamcatcher locations to Dinosaur Bone locations, when you have the time!
