The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Mahina struck Bathurst Bay, Cape York Peninsula, colonial Queensland, on 4 March 1899, and its winds and enormous storm surge combined to cause the deaths of more than 300 people.
- While the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, which is the Regional Specialised Meteorological Centre of the basin, estimates Mahina's peak central pressure to be 914 hPa, the World Meteorological Organization is currently considering an application from Queensland scientists and researchers to have this value upgraded to 880 hPa, based on data from post-storm analysis.
- This would officially make Mahina the most intense cyclone recorded to have hit the Australian mainland, and the most intense tropical cyclone recorded making landfall anywhere in the world, as well as the most intense tropical cyclone ever recorded in the Southern Hemisphere, a title currently held by Cyclone Winston.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cyclone Mahina article was read about 35,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 46: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
