The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is one of Skydance's three flagship subsidiaries, along with Paramount Pictures and MTV.
- Founded in 1927 as a radio network, headquartered at the CBS Building in New York City and being part of the "Big Three" television networks, CBS has major production facilities and operations at the CBS Broadcast Center and One Astor Plaza in New York City, and Television City and the CBS Studio Center in Los Angeles.
- It is sometimes referred to as the Eye Network, after the company's trademark symbol of an eye, which has been in use since October 20, 1951, and also the Tiffany Network, which alludes to the perceived high quality of its programming during the tenure of William S. Paley.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The CBS article was read about 770,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 88 and blocks with 65: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
How to get CBS
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.
