In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Each factor is tested at distinct values, or levels, and the experiment includes every possible combination of these levels across all factors.
- This comprehensive approach lets researchers see not only how each factor individually affects the response, but also how the factors interact and influence each other.
- Often, factorial experiments simplify things by using just two levels for each factor.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Factorial experiment article was read about 27,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 67: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
