Why it is Legendary
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The List of popes article was read about 1,300,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 95 and blocks with 77: each hit it takes is cut by 31 %.
