The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is a sister clade to the Choanozoa in which the choanoflagellates and animals appeared, originally proposed by Shalchian-Tabrizi et al. in 2008, based on a phylogenomic analysis with 78 genes.
- Filasterea was found to be the sister-group to the clade composed of Metazoa and Choanoflagellata within the Opisthokonta, a finding that has been further corroborated with additional, more taxon-rich, phylogenetic analyses.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Filasterea article was read about 9,700 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 31: each hit it takes is cut by 12 %.
