The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The amount of flow on an edge cannot exceed the capacity of the edge.
- Often in operations research, a directed graph is called a network, the vertices are called nodes and the edges are called arcs.
- A flow must satisfy the restriction that the amount of flow into a node equals the amount of flow out of it, unless it is a source, which has only outgoing flow, or sink, which has only incoming flow.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Flow network article was read about 34,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 41: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Flow network
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.
