The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Pure corundum is colorless, while trace elements in its crystal structure produce a wide range of colors.
- Blue is the best-known, but sapphires also occur in yellow, green, purple, pink, orange, gray, black, and colorless forms.
- Red gem-quality corundum is classified as ruby rather than sapphire.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Sapphire article was read about 450,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 84 and blocks with 84: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
How to get Sapphire
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.
