The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- As rulers, dukes are ranked below emperors, kings, grand princes, grand dukes, and above sovereign princes.
- As royalty or nobility, they are ranked below grand dukes and above or below princes, depending on the country or specific title.
- The title comes from French duc, itself from the Latin dux, 'leader', a term used in republican Rome to refer to a military commander without an official rank, and later coming to mean the leading military commander of a province.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Duke article was read about 270,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 45: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
