The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It appeared in the late Devonian period about 365 million years ago, and was anatomically intermediate between lobe-finned fishes and those that were able to come onto land.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Acanthostega article was read about 31,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 60 and blocks with 52: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.

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.
