The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The computer also includes memory and input/output circuitry together mounted on a printed circuit board.
- Microcomputers became popular in the 1970s and 1980s with the advent of increasingly powerful microprocessors such as the MOS Technology 6502, Zilog Z80, and Intel 8088.
- The predecessors to these computers, mainframes and minicomputers, were comparatively much larger and more expensive.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Microcomputer article was read about 65,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 41: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Microcomputer
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.
