The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Introduced in 1993, it was marketed as an alternative to beer, an example of what is now often referred to as a cooler, with 4.7–5.4% alcohol by volume.
- Its production in the United States ceased in October 2008, though it returned for limited releases in the summers of 2017 and 2018.
- In Japan, however, Zima was sold continuously until 2021, when sales ended due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic before returning in 2023.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Zima article was read about 120,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 36: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
How to get Zima
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.
