The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In traditional Mesoamerican cultures, metates are typically used by women who would grind nixtamalized maize and other organic materials during food preparation.
- Similar artifacts have been found in other regions, such as the sil-batta in Bihar and Jharkhand, India as well as other grinding stones in China.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Metate article was read about 25,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 60 and blocks with 50: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Metate
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.
