The facts on the card

- These three terms are, sometimes, interchangeable in referring to traditional martial arts of the Philippines, which emphasize weapon-based fighting with sticks, knives, bladed weapons, and various improvised weapons, as well as "open hand" techniques without weapons.
- There were campaigns for arnis along with other Philippine martial arts to be nominated in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists, and as of 2018, UNESCO has inscribed nine martial-arts-related intangible heritages.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Arnis article was read about 190,000 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 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
