The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The Trojan Horse is not mentioned in Homer's Iliad, with the poem ending before the war is concluded, and it is only briefly mentioned in the Odyssey.
- It is described at length in the Aeneid, in which Virgil recounts how, after a fruitless ten-year siege, the Greeks constructed a huge wooden horse at the behest of Odysseus, and hid a select force of men inside, including Odysseus himself.
- The Greeks pretended to sail away, and the Trojans pulled the horse into their city as a victory trophy.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Trojan Horse article was read about 900,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 62: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
