The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A regular octagon has Schläfli symbol {8} and can also be constructed as a quasiregular truncated square, t{4}, which alternates two types of edges.
- A truncated octagon, t{8} is a hexadecagon, {16}.
- A 3D analog of the octagon can be the rhombicuboctahedron with the triangular faces on it like the replaced edges, if one considers the octagon to be a truncated square.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Octagon article was read about 82,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 52: each hit it takes is cut by 21 %.
