The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In colloquial usage, the term can also refer to any person who suffers a significant consequence in protest or support of a cause.
- In the martyrdom narrative of the remembering community, this refusal to comply with the presented demands results in the punishment or execution of an individual by an oppressor.
- Accordingly, the status of the 'martyr' can be considered a posthumous title as a reward for those who are considered worthy of the concept of martyrdom by the living, regardless of any attempts by the deceased to control how they will be remembered in advance.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Martyr article was read about 240,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 73: each hit it takes is cut by 29 %.
