The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A defrosting procedure is generally performed periodically on refrigerators and freezers to maintain their operating efficiency.
- Over time, as the door is opened and closed, letting in new air, water vapour from the air condenses on the cooling elements within the cabinet.
- Types of frost include crystalline frost from deposition of water vapor from air of low humidity, white frost in humid conditions, window frost on glass surfaces, advection frost from cold wind over cold surfaces, black frost without visible ice at low temperatures and very low humidity, and rime under supercooled wet conditions.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Defrosting article was read about 3,300 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 35 and blocks with 8: each hit it takes is cut by 3 %.
