The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Metal atoms lose their valence electrons to a large, delocalized orbital, which leaves the nucleus, and other electrons that are closer to the nucleus, as positively charged cations.
- The ions form a crystal lattice as they are held together by the negative charge of the delocalized orbital.
- It may be described as the sharing of free electrons among a structure of positively charged ions, and as a more delocalized version of covalent bonding.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Metallic bonding article was read about 48,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 53: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
How to get Metallic bonding
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.
