The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It became the port city of Rome located at the mouth of the Tiber and is near modern Ostia, 25 km southwest of Rome.
- Due to silting of the coastline from the river, the site now lies 3 km from the sea.
- The name Ostia derives from Latin os 'mouth'.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Ostia Antica article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 79: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
