The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Alternative names include folk football, mob football and Shrovetide football.
- These games may be regarded as the ancestors of modern codes of football, and by comparison with later forms of football, the medieval matches had few rules and were chaotic.
- The Middle Ages saw a rise in popularity of games played annually at Shrovetide throughout England, particularly in London.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Medieval football article was read about 100,000 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 82: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
