- Endospore formation is usually triggered by a lack of nutrients, and usually occurs in Gram-positive bacteria.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Endospore article was read about 56,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 54: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
How to get Endospore
