The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Perspective is an approximate representation, generally on a flat surface, of an object as it is seen by the eye.
- Perspective is useful for representing a three-dimensional scene in a two-dimensional medium, like paper.
- It is based on the optical fact that for a person an object looks N times smaller if it has been moved N times further from the eye than the original distance was.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Perspective article was read about 95,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 72 and blocks with 71: each hit it takes is cut by 28 %.
How to get Perspective
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.
