Theoretical physics, an Uncommon card
Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that uses mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to explain and predict natural phenomena.

Power 132 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 75 % of WikiCards cards.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is, in the broadest sense, the attempt to say why things happen the way they do, not merely to record that they do.
- This is in contrast to experimental physics, which tests and refines those explanations through direct measurement and observation.
- In practice, the two feed each other constantly: a theoretical prediction suggests an experiment, and an unexpected experimental result sends theorists back to the drawing board.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Theoretical physics article was read about 130,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 69 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
How to get Theoretical physics
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.
