The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Along with mast cells and basophils, they also control mechanisms associated with allergy and asthma.
- They are granulocytes that develop during hematopoiesis in the bone marrow before migrating into blood, after which they are terminally differentiated and do not multiply.
- These cells are eosinophilic or "acid-loving" due to their large acidophilic cytoplasmic granules, which show their affinity for acids by their affinity to coal tar dyes: Normally transparent, it is this affinity that causes them to appear brick-red after staining with eosin, a red dye, using the Romanowsky method.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Eosinophil article was read about 82,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 69 and blocks with 68: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
