- Epic
- Domain
- Science
- ATK
- 90
- DEF
- 83
- Power
- 173

In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The general form of its probability density function is f = 1 2 π σ 2 exp . The parameter μ is the mean or expectation of the distribution, while the parameter σ 2 {\textstyle \sigma ^{2}} is the variance.
- The standard deviation of the distribution is the positive value σ .
- A random variable with a Gaussian distribution is said to be normally distributed and is called a normal deviate.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Normal distribution article was read about 980,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 90 and blocks with 83: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
How to get Normal distribution
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.
