The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The story of the eponymous character is taken from medieval German romance, notably the Parzival of Wolfram von Eschenbach, and its sequel Lohengrin, itself inspired by the epic of Garin le Loherain.
- It is part of the Knight of the Swan legend.
- King Ludwig II of Bavaria, whose patronage later gave Wagner the means not only to complete the epic cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen but also to build the monumental Bayreuth Festspielhaus upon which to stage it, named his own Neuschwanstein Castle after the Swan Knight.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Lohengrin article was read about 94,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 68: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
