The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A monk usually lives his life in prayer and contemplation.
- The concept is ancient and can be seen in many religions, and in philosophy, across numerous cultures.
- Monasticism is historically rooted in the Sramana movements of ancient India, which produced the structured ascetic orders of Jainism and Buddhism.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Monk article was read about 190,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
How to get Monk
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.
