The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A datum, data value or data point is an individual value in a collection of data.
- Data is usually organized into structures such as tables that provide additional context and meaning, and may itself be used as data in larger structures.
- Data may be used as variables in a computational process.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Data article was read about 240,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 48: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
How to get Data
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.
