The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Two cue balls and a red object ball are used: sometimes the balls are marked with dots.
- Each player or team uses a different cue ball.
- It is played on a billiards table with the same dimensions as one used for snooker and points are scored for cannons and pocketing the balls.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The English billiards article was read about 72,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 51: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
