The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His most notable work, Vom Kriege, though unfinished at his death, is considered a seminal treatise on military strategy and science.
- Clausewitz stressed the multiple interactions of diverse factors in war, noting how unexpected developments unfolding under the "fog of war" call for rapid decisions by alert commanders.
- He saw history as a vital check on erudite abstractions that did not accord with experience.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Carl von Clausewitz article was read about 300,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 81 and blocks with 69: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
