The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The grouping of these animal phyla into a single clade was first proposed by Eernisse et al. based on a phylogenetic analysis of 141 morphological characters of ultrastructural and embryological phenotypes.
- This clade, that is, a group consisting of a common ancestor and all its descendants, was formally named by Aguinaldo et al. in 1997, based mainly on phylogenetic trees constructed using 18S ribosomal RNA genes.
- A large study in 2008 by Dunn et al. strongly supported the monophyly of Ecdysozoa.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ecdysozoa article was read about 130,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 46: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
How to get Ecdysozoa
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.
