Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The DNA replication article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 82: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
How to get DNA replication
