The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It can be caused by a mutation in a single gene or multiple genes or by a chromosome abnormality.
- Although polygenic disorders are the most common, the term is mostly used when discussing disorders with a single genetic cause, either in a gene or chromosome.
- The mutation responsible can occur spontaneously before embryonic development, or it can be inherited from two parents who are carriers of a faulty gene or from a parent with the disorder.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Genetic disorder article was read about 100,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 70: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
How to get Genetic disorder
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.
