The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Cameras evolved from the camera obscura through many generations of photographic technology – daguerreotypes, calotypes, dry plates, film – to the modern day with digital cameras and camera phones.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The History of the camera article was read about 170,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 75: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.

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.
