The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Causes of atrophy include mutations, poor nourishment, poor circulation, loss of hormonal support, loss of nerve supply to the target organ, excessive amount of apoptosis of cells, and disuse or lack of exercise or disease intrinsic to the tissue itself.
- In medical practice, hormonal and nerve inputs that maintain an organ or body part are said to have trophic effects.
- A diminished muscular trophic condition is designated as atrophy.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Atrophy 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 53 and blocks with 26: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
