- It is a subset of, and predecessor to, developmental biology.
- Embryology includes teratology, the study of congenital disorders that occur before birth.
- Early embryology, put forward by Marcello Malpighi, was preformationist in concept: based on the idea that organisms develop from pre-existing miniature versions of themselves.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Embryology article was read about 50,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 84 and blocks with 67: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
How to get Embryology
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.
