The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It forms the North American Craton, the ancient geologic core of the North American continent.
- Glaciation has left the area with only a thin layer of soil, through which exposures of igneous bedrock, resulting from its long volcanic history, are frequently visible.
- As a deep, common, joined bedrock region in eastern and central Canada, it also extends south into the northern reaches of the contiguous United States.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Canadian Shield article was read about 220,000 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 50: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
