The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is shaped by a Mediterranean climate and infrequent, high-intensity crown fires.
- Many chaparral shrubs have hard sclerophyllous evergreen leaves, in contrast to the soft-leaved, drought-deciduous, coastal sage scrub that is often found on drier, southern-facing slopes.
- Three other closely related chaparral shrubland systems occur in southern Arizona, western Texas, and along the eastern side of central Mexico's mountain chains, all having summer rains in contrast to the Mediterranean climate of other chaparral formations.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Chaparral article was read about 120,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 72: each hit it takes is cut by 29 %.
