The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Its name derives from the chaotic Leviathan sea serpent of the Hebrew Bible and earlier mythologies.
- The work concerns the structure of society and legitimate government, and is regarded as one of the earliest and most influential examples of social contract theory.
- Written during the English Civil War, it argues for a social contract and rule by an absolute sovereign.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Leviathan article was read about 270,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 52: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
