What it does
On reveal: Destroy the strongest enemy card here with 6 or less Power.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
Destroy removes a card from the board.
It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2004
A humour site started by two college freshmen, Josh Abramson and Ricky Van Veen, with jokes, photos and links passed round by email.
Within three months it had over 600,000 visitors a month. They turned down a $9 million offer from eFront, and IAC bought 51% in 2006. It closed in 2020 when IAC withdrew funding, and the company is now Dropout.
In 2004: The team settled in New York City, in a TriBeCa loft. Jake Lodwick and Zach Klein started Vimeo this year as a spinoff.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Meme Machine: Where the jokes everyone repeated got started.
