The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The growth typically follows an initial stage of either homogeneous or heterogeneous nucleation, unless a "seed" crystal, purposely added to start the growth, was already present.
- The action of crystal growth yields a crystalline solid whose atoms or molecules are close packed, with fixed positions in space relative to each other.
- The crystalline state of matter is characterized by a distinct structural rigidity and very high resistance to deformation.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Crystal growth article was read about 21,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 51: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Crystal growth
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.
