The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A supernova occurs during the last evolutionary stages of a massive star, or when a white dwarf is triggered into runaway nuclear fusion.
- The original object, called the progenitor, either collapses to a neutron star or black hole, or is completely destroyed to form a diffuse nebula.
- The peak optical luminosity of a supernova can be comparable to that of an entire galaxy before fading over several weeks or months.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Supernova article was read about 460,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 95 and blocks with 94: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
