The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The image is infused with complex iconography and symbolism, the precise meaning of which has been argued over for centuries.
- A stolid armoured knight on a proud horse, accompanied by his faithful dog, rides through a wild narrow gorge flanked by a goat-headed devil and the figure of death riding a pale horse.
- Death's rotting corpse holds an hourglass, a reminder of the shortness of life.
Why it is Uncommon

ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 72: each hit it takes is cut by 29 %.
