The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The prime symbol ′ is also sometimes used informally to denote minutes.
- In the UTC time standard, a minute on rare occasions has 61 seconds, a consequence of leap seconds, there is also a provision to insert a negative leap second, which would result in a 59-second minute, but this has never happened in more than 40 years under this system.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Minute article was read about 52,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 44 and blocks with 28: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
How to get Minute
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.
