The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In a typical modern configuration, each gondola carrying riders is lifted to the top of the tower and then released to free fall back down to ground level.
- This produces a feeling of weightlessness followed by rapid deceleration.
- A magnetic braking system, or a variation that relies on pistons and air pressure, is used to safely bring the gondola to a complete stop.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Drop tower article was read about 46,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 42: each hit it takes is cut by 17 %.
