The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- For example, the oscillating universe theory briefly considered by Albert Einstein in 1930 theorized a universe following an eternal series of oscillations, each beginning with a Big Bang and ending with a Big Crunch, in the interim, the universe would expand for a period of time before the gravitational attraction of matter causes it to collapse back in and undergo a Big Bounce.
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 model article was read about 40,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 31: each hit it takes is cut by 12 %.
How to get Cyclic model
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.
