The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs.
- The stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
- For many molecules, the sharing of electrons allows each atom to attain the equivalent of a full valence shell, corresponding to a stable electronic configuration.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Covalent bond article was read about 140,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 69 and blocks with 65: each hit it takes is cut by 26 %.
How to get Covalent bond
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.
