The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Its last known eruption is believed to have occurred around AD 550.
- Chimborazo is the highest mountain in Ecuador and the 39th-highest peak in the entire Andes.
- Although not the tallest mountain on Earth relative to sea level, it reaches a height of 6,263 m, well below that of Mount Everest at 8,849 m, its summit is the farthest point on Earth's surface from its center due to its location along the equatorial bulge.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Chimborazo article was read about 180,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
