The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Most of the material in the accretionary wedge consists of marine sediments scraped off from the downgoing slab of oceanic crust, but in some cases the wedge includes the erosional products of volcanic island arcs formed on the overriding plate.
- An accretionary complex is a current or former accretionary wedge.
- Accretionary complexes are typically made up of a mix of turbidites of terrestrial material, basalts from the ocean floor, and pelagic and hemipelagic sediments.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Accretionary wedge article was read about 8,900 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 35: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
