What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2002

An American technology website with news, reviews, blogs, podcasts and videos about technology and consumer electronics.

Halsey Minor and Shelby Bonnie founded it in 1992, starting with television. CBS bought its parent for $1.8 billion in 2008, then Red Ventures in 2020 and Ziff Davis in 2024.

In 2002: Now CNET Networks, with ZDNET bought in October 2000 for about $1.6 billion. CNET Radio was on air until January 2003.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
