The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was conceived in 1796 by the German physician Samuel Hahnemann.
- Its practitioners, called homeopaths or homeopathic physicians, believe that a substance that causes symptoms of a disease in healthy people can cure similar symptoms in sick people, this doctrine is called similia similibus curentur, or "like cures like".
- Homeopathic preparations are termed remedies and are made using homeopathic dilution.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Homeopathy article was read about 400,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 91 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
How to get Homeopathy
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.
