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.
- He contributed much to the mathematical form of matrix mechanics, and developed canonical anticommutation relations for fermions.
- He introduced Jordan algebras in an effort to formalize quantum field theory, the algebras have since found numerous applications within mathematics.
- Jordan joined the Nazi Party in 1933, but did not follow the Deutsche Physik movement, which at the time rejected quantum physics developed by Albert Einstein and other Jewish physicists.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Pascual Jordan article was read about 23,000 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 32: each hit it takes is cut by 13 %.
How to get Pascual Jordan
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.
