The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- One player, chosen as the "head" of the whip, runs around in random directions, with subsequent participants holding on to the hand of that ahead of them and seeking to hang on.
- With every turn the forces generated accelerate the tail, the sharper the turn and longer the tail the more so, eventually "cracking the whip" and sending one or more players flying.
- Unlike musical chairs the game is not won by the last to hold on.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Crack the whip article was read about 6,200 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 33 and blocks with 5: each hit it takes is cut by 2 %.
