Ranked #1,878 of the 3,000 cards of the base set by power (ATK + DEF).
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The most common type of switch is an electromechanical device consisting of one or more sets of movable electrical contacts connected to external circuits.
- When a pair of contacts is touching, current can pass between them, while the contacts are separated no current can flow.
- Switches are made in many different configurations, they may have multiple sets of contacts controlled by the same knob or actuator, and the contacts may operate simultaneously, sequentially, or alternately.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Switch article was read about 87,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 62: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
How to get Switch
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.
