The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Although common law may incorporate certain statutes, it is largely based on precedent, judicial rulings made in previous similar cases.
- The presiding judge determines which precedents to apply in deciding each new case.
- Common law is deeply rooted in the principle of stare decisis, where courts follow precedents established by previous decisions.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Common law article was read about 360,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 85 and blocks with 83: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
How to get Common law
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.
