The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Chinese characters as used in Chinese as well as other languages are logograms, as are Egyptian hieroglyphs and characters in cuneiform script.
- A writing system that primarily uses logograms is called a logography.
- Non-logographic writing systems, such as alphabets and syllabaries, are phonemic: their individual symbols represent sounds directly and lack any inherent meaning.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Logogram article was read about 140,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 70 and blocks with 40: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Logogram
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.
