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.
- This technique relies on the fact that cerebral blood flow and neuronal activation are coupled: When an area of the brain is in use, blood flow to that region increases.
- The primary form of fMRI uses the blood-oxygen-level dependent contrast, discovered by Seiji Ogawa and his colleagues in 1990.
- This is a type of specialized brain and body scan used to map neural activity in the brain or spinal cord of humans or other animals by imaging the change in blood flow related to energy use by nerve cells.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Functional magnetic resonance imaging article was read about 66,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 87 and blocks with 91: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
How to get Functional magnetic resonance imaging
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.
