The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He was regarded as a source of both divine and human kingship, and opens the enumerations of deities in many Mesopotamian texts.
- At the same time, his role was largely passive, and he was not commonly worshipped.
- It is sometimes proposed that the Eanna temple located in Uruk originally belonged to him, rather than Inanna.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Anu article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 84 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
How to get Anu
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.
