The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Most modern Burmese are descendants of one female cat called Wong Mau, which was brought from Burma to the United States in 1930 and bred with American Siamese.
- From there, American and British breeders developed distinctly different Burmese breed standards, which is unusual among pedigreed domestic cats.
- Most modern cat registries do not formally recognise the two as separate breeds, but those that do refer to the British type as the European Burmese.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Burmese cat article was read about 140,000 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 64: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
