The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is a volatile, non-flammable, dense, colourless liquid with a chloroform-like sweet odour that can be detected at low levels.
- It was formerly widely used in fire extinguishers, as a precursor to refrigerants, an anthelmintic and a cleaning agent, but has since been phased out because of environmental and safety concerns.
- Exposure to high concentrations of carbon tetrachloride can affect the central nervous system and degenerate the liver and kidneys.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Carbon tetrachloride 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 76 and blocks with 97: each hit it takes is cut by 39 %.
