The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The Waverley novels are considered seminal to the genre of historical fiction, and Ivanhoe became by far the best-known entry in the whole cycle of nearly thirty books.
- Ivanhoe marked a shift away from Scott's prior practice of setting stories in Scotland during centuries closer to the one from which he wrote his books.
- Whereas earlier numbers in the Waverley series take place in the 16th and 17th centuries, Ivanhoe is set in the high-medieval past during the 1190s.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ivanhoe article was read about 260,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 55: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
