The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The name originates from Ancient Greek ἀτμός 'vapour, steam' and σφαῖρα 'sphere'.
- An object acquires most of its atmosphere during its primordial epoch, either by accretion of matter or by outgassing of volatiles.
- The chemical interaction of the atmosphere with a solid surface can change its fundamental composition, as can photochemical interaction with the host star.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Atmosphere article was read about 170,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
How to get Atmosphere
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.
