The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Glossaries are often placed at the end of a book to define novel, uncommon, or specialized terms.
- Glossaries are most commonly found in non-fiction.
- A bilingual glossary defines words in another language.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Glossary article was read about 25,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 46 and blocks with 27: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
How to get Glossary
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.
