The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- DM belongs to the group of chemical warfare agents known as vomiting agents or sneeze gases.
- First synthesized in Germany by Heinrich Otto Wieland in 1915, it was independently developed by the US chemist Roger Adams, after whom it is named, at the University of Illinois in 1918.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Adamsite article was read about 28,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 54 and blocks with 35: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
