The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A scientific hypothesis must be based on observations and make a testable and reproducible prediction about reality, in a process beginning with an educated guess.
- If a hypothesis is repeatedly independently demonstrated by experiment to be true, it becomes a scientific theory.
- In colloquial usage, the words hypothesis and theory are often used interchangeably, but this is incorrect in the context of science.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Hypothesis article was read about 140,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 43: each hit it takes is cut by 17 %.
How to get Hypothesis
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.
