The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- First played by British Army officers stationed in India in the second half of the 19th century, the game is played with 22 balls: a white cue ball, 15 reds and six colours – yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and black.
- Using a snooker cue, players take turns to strike the cue ball to pot other balls in a defined sequence, scoring points for each pot and for fouls committed by the opposing player.
- An individual frame of snooker is won by the player who has scored the most points, and a snooker match ends when a player wins a predetermined number of frames.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Snooker article was read about 440,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 89 and blocks with 99: each hit it takes is cut by 40 %.
