The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The name he is commonly called, Fibonacci, is first found in a modern source in a 1838 text by the Franco-Italian mathematician Guglielmo Libri and is short for filius Bonacci.
- However, even as early as 1506, Perizolo, a notary of the Holy Roman Empire, mentions him as "Lionardo Fibonacci".
- Fibonacci popularized the Indo–Arabic numeral system in the Western world primarily through his composition in 1202 of Liber Abaci and also introduced Europe to the sequence of Fibonacci numbers, which he used as an example in Liber Abaci.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Fibonacci article was read about 240,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 61: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
How to get Fibonacci
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.
