- The small flakes of black and white in the rock often give it a salt-and-pepper appearance.

Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Amphibolite article was read about 23,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 55 and blocks with 26: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
