Power 125 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 60 % of WikiCards cards.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This contrasts with a cathode, which is usually an electrode of the device through which conventional current leaves the device.
- A common mnemonic is ACID, for Anode Current Into Device.
- The direction of conventional current in a circuit is opposite to the direction of electron flow, so electrons flow from the anode of a galvanic cell, into an outside or external circuit connected to the cell.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Anode article was read about 64,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 60: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
How to get Anode
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
