The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.

- E.g. Panthera leo and Panthera onca are two species within the genus Panthera.
- Panthera is a genus within the family Felidae.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Genus article was read about 390,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 50: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Genus
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.
