The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Located in the northern celestial hemisphere, it is named for Andromeda, daughter of Cassiopeia, in the Greek myth, who was chained to a rock to be eaten by the sea monster Cetus.
- Andromeda is most prominent during autumn evenings in the Northern Hemisphere, along with several other constellations named for characters in the Perseus myth.
- Because of its northern declination, Andromeda is visible only north of 40° south latitude, for observers farther south, it always lies below the horizon.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Andromeda article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 93: each hit it takes is cut by 37 %.
