The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Three kinds of Cyclopes can be distinguished.
- In Hesiod's Theogony, the Cyclopes are three brothers, Brontes, Steropes, and Arges, who create Zeus's thunderbolt, Poseidon's trident, and Hades' Helm of Darkness.
- The Cyclopes of Homer's Odyssey are a group of uncivilized, cave-dwelling shepherds, including Polyphemus, whom Odysseus encounters.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Cyclopes article was read about 400,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 83 and blocks with 94: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
How to get Cyclopes
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.
