Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Yann LeCun article was read about 480,000 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 58: each hit it takes is cut by 23 %.
