Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Clade article was read about 240,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 61 and blocks with 54: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
