- Inherent within musical modernism is the conviction that music is not a static phenomenon defined by timeless truths and classical principles, but rather something which is intrinsically historical and developmental.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Modernism article was read about 43,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 58 and blocks with 34: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
