The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- After cells of interest have been isolated from living tissue, they can subsequently be maintained under carefully controlled conditions.
- They need to be kept at body temperature in an incubator.
- These conditions vary for each cell type, but generally consist of a suitable vessel with a substrate or rich medium that supplies the essential nutrients, growth factors, hormones, and gases, and regulates the physio-chemical environment.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cell culture article was read about 30,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 87 and blocks with 84: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
How to get Cell culture
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.
