The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- That is, it is a set of invertible elements with a single associative binary operation, and it contains an element g such that every other element of the group may be obtained by repeatedly applying the group operation to g or its inverse.
- Each element can be written as an integer power of g in multiplicative notation, or as an integer multiple of g in additive notation.
- This element g is called a generator of the group.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cyclic group article was read about 63,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 67: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
