The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Alexandra's family had been relatively obscure until 1852, when her father, Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, was chosen to succeed his second cousin Frederick VII as King of Denmark.
- At the age of 16, she was chosen as the future wife of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, the son and heir apparent of Queen Victoria.
- The couple married 18 months later in 1863, the year in which her father became king of Denmark as Christian IX and her brother William was appointed king of Greece as George I. Alexandra was Princess of Wales from 1863 to 1901, the longest anyone has ever held that title, and became generally popular, fashion-conscious women copied her style of dress and bearing.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Alexandra of Denmark article was read about 730,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 77 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
