The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is the second and only surviving part of a now otherwise lost trilogy that won the first prize at the dramatic competitions in Athens' City Dionysia festival in 472 BC, with Pericles serving as choregos.
- It is Aeschylus' oldest surviving play, and, by extension, the oldest surviving piece of ancient Greek drama.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The The Persians article was read about 34,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 51: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
