The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was first recorded in the United States in the 1880s and has many variants, some of which are also referred to as "Hearts", especially the games of Black Lady and Black Maria.
- The game is a member of the Whist group of trick-taking games, but is unusual among Whist variants in that it is a trick-avoidance game, players avoid winning certain penalty cards in tricks, usually by avoiding winning tricks altogether.
- The original game of Hearts is still current, but it has been overtaken in popularity by Black Lady in the United States and Black Maria in Great Britain, respectively.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Hearts article was read about 110,000 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 52: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
