The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is a more powerful version of the Macintosh IIcx, released earlier that year, and shares the same compact case design.
- With three NuBus expansion slots and a Processor Direct Slot, the IIci also improved upon the IIcx's 16 MHz Motorola 68030 CPU and 68882 FPU, replacing them with 25 MHz versions of these chips.
- The Macintosh Quadra 700 was introduced at the end of 1991 as Apple's mainstream workstation product to replace the IIci, albeit at a significantly higher price point: by this time, Apple authorized resellers were offering entry-level IIci systems for US$4,000 or less, whereas the Quadra 700 entered the market above US$6,000.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Macintosh IIci article was read about 16,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 52 and blocks with 26: each hit it takes is cut by 10 %.
How to get Macintosh IIci
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.
