Ranked #1,142 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.
- It is one of the basic building blocks of modern electronics.
- It is composed of semiconductor material, usually with at least three terminals for connection to an electronic circuit.
- A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals controls the current through another pair of terminals.
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Transistor article was read about 470,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 85 and blocks with 83: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
How to get Transistor
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.
