- The concept arose soon after Gautama Buddha's death, with a number of earlier Buddhist schools accepting the existence of such an intermediate state, while other schools rejected it.
- That is to say that during the so-called third Council in Pataliputra the Asokan section of early Buddhism rejected this concept of àntāra-bháva.

Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Bardo article was read about 130,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 44: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
How to get Bardo
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.
