The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This can exist between two fluid layers, or between a fluid and a solid surface.
- Drag forces tend to decrease fluid velocity relative to the solid object in the fluid's path.
- Unlike other resistive forces, drag force depends on velocity.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Drag 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 74 and blocks with 70: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
How to get Drag
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.
