Moat, an Uncommon card
A moat is a deep, broad ditch dug around a castle, fortification, building or garrisoned town, either dry or filled with water, historically to provide the site with a preliminary line of defence, particularly against siege engines.

The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Moats typically deny all direct land access except at a few narrow locations traversed by drawbridges, bridges or causeways, into which a siege will be funneled and thus easier to defend against.
- In some places, moats evolved into more extensive water defences, including natural or artificial lakes, dams and sluices.
- In older fortifications, such as hillforts, they are usually referred to simply as ditches, although the function is similar.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Moat article was read about 96,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 66 and blocks with 60: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
