Power 104 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 60 % of WikiCards cards.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is also the title of a book by British science writer and founding editor of Nature Genetics, Kevin Davies.
- By late 2015, the cost to generate a high-quality "draft" whole human genome sequence was just below $1,500.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The $1,000 genome article was read about 4,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 40: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get $1,000 genome
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
