IBM 7080, a Common card
The IBM 7080 was a variable word length BCD transistor computer in the IBM 700/7000 series commercial architecture line, introduced in August 1961, that provided an upgrade path from the vacuum-tube IBM 705 computer.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The 7080 weighed about 19,700 pounds.
- After the introduction of the IBM 7070, in June 1960, as an upgrade path for both the IBM 650 and IBM 705 computers, IBM realized that it was so incompatible with the 705 that few users of that system wanted to upgrade to the 7070.
- That prompted the development of the 7080, which was fully compatible with all models of the 705 and added many improvements.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The IBM 7080 article was read about 2,300 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 44 and blocks with 19: each hit it takes is cut by 8 %.
How to get IBM 7080
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.
