The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- When the atom is of the same type as those already present they are known as a self-interstitial defect.
- Alternatively, small atoms in some crystals may occupy interstitial sites, such as hydrogen in palladium.
- Interstitials can be produced by bombarding a crystal with elementary particles having energy above the displacement threshold for that crystal, but they may also exist in small concentrations in thermodynamic equilibrium.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Interstitial defect article was read about 5,300 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 33: each hit it takes is cut by 13 %.
How to get Interstitial defect
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.
