The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.

- Such microorganisms may be decomposers, detritivores, or coprophages.
- In terrestrial ecosystems detritus is present as plant litter and other organic matter that is intermixed with soil, known as soil organic matter.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Detritus article was read about 64,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 25: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
How to get Detritus
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.
