Comet, a Rare card

Ranked #299 of the 3,000 cards of the base set by power (ATK + DEF).
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This produces an extended, gravitationally unbound atmosphere or coma surrounding the nucleus, and sometimes a tail of gas and dust gas blown out from the coma.
- These phenomena are due to the effects of solar radiation and the outstreaming solar wind plasma acting upon the nucleus of the comet.
- Comet nuclei range from a few hundred meters to tens of kilometers across and are composed of loose collections of ice, dust, and small rocky particles.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Comet article was read about 320,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 89 and blocks with 97: each hit it takes is cut by 39 %.
How to get Comet
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.
