The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was ruled by the Mithridatic dynasty of Persian origin, which may have been directly related to Darius the Great of the Achaemenid dynasty.
- The kingdom was proclaimed by Mithridates I in 281 BC and lasted until its conquest by the Roman Republic in 63 BC.
- The Kingdom of Pontus reached its greatest extent under Mithridates VI the Great, who conquered Colchis, Cappadocia, Bithynia and the Greek colonies of the Tauric Chersonesos, plus the Roman province of Asia.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Kingdom of Pontus article was read about 160,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 71: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
