The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time.
- However, the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, salt water and atmospheric water is variable and depends on climatic variables.
- The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere due to a variety of physical and chemical processes.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Water cycle article was read about 170,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 81: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
