The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It shows a man sitting on the beach with his head propped up in the foreground, while in the background a couple is on their way to a boat trip.
- The colors support the melancholic mood of the scene.
- In this motif, Munch processed the unhappy love affair of his friend Jappe Nilssen with the married Oda Krohg, which mirrored his own past relationship with a married woman.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Melancholy article was read about 22,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 58: each hit it takes is cut by 23 %.
