The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- He was one of the leading poets of the First World War.
- His war poetry on the horrors of trenches and gas warfare was much influenced by his mentor Siegfried Sassoon and stood in contrast to the public perception of war at the time and to the confidently patriotic verse written by earlier war poets such as Rupert Brooke.
- Among his best-known works – most of which were published posthumously – are "Dulce et Decorum est", "Insensibility", "Anthem for Doomed Youth", "Futility" and "Strange Meeting".
Why it is Rare
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Wilfred Owen article was read about 230,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 67: each hit it takes is cut by 27 %.
