The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The word comes to English via the French mirer, from the Latin mirari, meaning "to look at, to wonder at".
- Mirages can be categorized as "inferior", "superior" and "Fata Morgana", one kind of superior mirage consisting of a series of unusually elaborate, vertically stacked images, which form one rapidly changing mirage.
- In contrast to a hallucination, a mirage is a real optical phenomenon that can be captured on camera, since light rays are actually refracted to form the false image at the observer's location.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Mirage article was read about 150,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 62 and blocks with 48: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
