The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He was believed to see everything that happened in the world every day, and was therefore responsible for justice and protection of travelers.
- As a divine judge, he could be associated with the underworld.
- Additionally, he could serve as the god of divination, typically alongside the weather god Adad.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Shamash article was read about 150,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 82 and blocks with 100: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
How to get Shamash
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.
