The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Opportunity was operational on Mars for 5111 sols.
- Launched on July 7, 2003, as part of NASA's Mars Exploration Rover program, it landed in Meridiani Planum on January 25, 2004, three weeks after its twin, Spirit, touched down on the other side of the planet.
- With a planned 90-sol duration of activity, Spirit functioned until it got stuck in 2009 and ceased communications in 2010, while Opportunity was able to stay operational for 5111 sols after landing, maintaining its power and key systems through continual recharging of its batteries using solar power, and hibernating during events such as dust storms to save power.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Opportunity 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 87: each hit it takes is cut by 35 %.
How to get Opportunity
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.
