The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In its Western form, alchemy is first attested in pseudepigraphical texts written in Greco-Roman Egypt during the first few centuries AD.
- Greek-speaking alchemists often named their craft "the Art" or "Knowledge", and it was often characterised as mystic, sacred, or divine.
- Alchemists attempted to purify, mature, and perfect certain materials.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Alchemy article was read about 660,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 88 and blocks with 89: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
