The facts on the card

The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.

Why it is Common

Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Joe Armstrong article was read about 10,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 51 and blocks with 36: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.

How to get Joe Armstrong

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.
