The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His most well known songs are "Skilles Johanne" and "Lukk opp din hjertedør".
- In only a few years, Storbukås sold more than one million cassettes, and set records in a series of places where he performed.
- He was rated as artist of the year in Norway in 1990, and in the fall of 1993 he got into the Guinness Book of World Records when he performed 36 times in locations from Mandal in the south to Tromsø in the north in only 72 hours.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Sputnik article was read about 4,300 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 40 and blocks with 8: each hit it takes is cut by 3 %.
How to get Sputnik
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.
