The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Following the Byzantine defeat at the Battle of the Yarmuk, Muslim armies conquered most Byzantine territory in the Levant, Egypt and North Africa within decades.
- Arab expansion subsequently slowed to a more gradual rate, following two failed sieges of the Byzantine capital of Constantinople in the late 7th and early 8th centuries.
- By the mid-9th century, the Byzantines had partially recovered and proceeded to recapture some of their lost territory in Anatolia in the following decades.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Arab–Byzantine wars article was read about 120,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 81 and blocks with 95: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
