Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Australia article was read about 4,600,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 97 and blocks with 99: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
