The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The class of bosons is one of the two fundamental classes of subatomic particle, the other being fermions, which have half odd-integer spin.
- Every observed subatomic particle is either a boson or a fermion.
- Paul Dirac coined the term boson to classify the fundamental particles that obey Bose–Einstein statistics, the quantum framework pioneered by Satyendra Nath Bose.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Boson article was read about 200,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 57 and blocks with 34: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
How to get Boson
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.
