Arrowroot, an Uncommon card

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In Kenya, "arrowroot" refers to nduma, a plant known elsewhere as taro.
- Polynesian arrowroot or pia, Guyana arrowroot, Japanese arrowroot or kudzu, and purple arrowroot are used in similar ways.
- M. arundinacea is called ପାଳୁଅ in Odisha, India, and uraró/araró in the Philippines, where it is the base starch of a popular cookie.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Arrowroot article was read about 100,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 59 and blocks with 44: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
How to get Arrowroot
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.
