The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In 1897, he founded and became the first President of the Brazilian Academy of Letters.
- He was multilingual, having taught himself French, English, German and Greek later in life.
- Born in Morro do Livramento, Rio de Janeiro, from a poor family, Machado was the grandson of freed slaves in a country where slavery would not be fully abolished until 49 years later.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Machado de Assis article was read about 56,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 76: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
