Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Tom Clancy article was read about 780,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 76: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
How to get Tom Clancy
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.
