The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This approach works either by preventing heat from entering the interior or by removing heat from the building.
- Natural cooling utilizes on-site energy, available from the natural environment, combined with the architectural design of building components, rather than mechanical systems to dissipate heat.
- Therefore, natural cooling depends not only on the architectural design of the building but on how the site's natural resources are used as heat sinks.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Passive cooling article was read about 30,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 69 and blocks with 69: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
