The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is one of the core protocols of standards-based internetworking methods in the Internet and other packet-switched networks.
- IPv4 was the first version deployed for production on SATNET in 1982 and on the ARPANET in January 1983.
- It is still used to carry most Internet traffic today, even with the ongoing deployment of Internet Protocol version 6, its successor.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The IPv4 article was read about 240,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 68: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
How to get IPv4
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.
