The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- An integer is even if it is divisible by 2, and odd if it is not.
- For example, −4, 0, and 82 are even numbers, while −7, 5, and 23 are odd numbers.
- The above definition of parity applies only to integer numbers, hence it cannot be applied to numbers with fractions or decimals such as 1⁄2 or 7.2742.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Parity article was read about 45,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 54: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
How to get Parity
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.
