Snark, a Common card
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a snark is an undirected graph with exactly three edges per vertex whose edges cannot be colored with only three colors.

Power 116 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 55 % of WikiCards cards.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- In order to avoid trivial cases, snarks are often restricted to have additional requirements on their connectivity and on the length of their cycles.
- Infinitely many snarks exist.
- One of the equivalent forms of the four color theorem is that every snark is a non-planar graph.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Snark article was read about 9,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 49: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
How to get Snark
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.
