The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Vishnu is said to descend in the form of an avatar to restore cosmic order.
- The word Dashavatara derives from daśa, meaning "ten", and avatāra, roughly equivalent to "incarnation".
- The list of included avatars varies across sects and regions, particularly with respect to the inclusion of Balarama or the Buddha.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Dashavatara article was read about 450,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
How to get Dashavatara
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.
