The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The game is derived from piquet, possibly via marriage and briscan, with additional scoring features, notably the peculiar liaison of the Q♠ and J♦ that is also a feature of pinochle, Binokel, and similarly named games that vary by country.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Bezique article was read about 36,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 49: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Bezique
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.
