The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Ancient Egyptians were the first to develop written literature, as inscriptions or in collections of papyrus, precursors to the modern book.
- A former head of the General Egyptian Book Organization said Egypt’s cultural production sees roughly 18,000 new titles annually, of which around 10,000 are original works by Egyptian authors.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Egyptian literature article was read about 5,900 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
How to get Egyptian literature
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.
