The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- These drivers are the atmosphere, oceans, land surface and ice.
- Scientists use climate models to study the dynamics of the climate system and to make projections of future climate and of climate change.
- Climate models can also be qualitative models and contain narratives, largely descriptive, of possible futures.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Climate model article was read about 18,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 80: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
How to get Climate model
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.
