What it does

Ongoing: If this is your only card here, +4 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 9 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.

The site, in 2004

Tim Buckley's gaming webcomic about Ethan, a video game fanatic, and his sarcastic roommate Lucas, later also an animated series.

It premiered on 23 October 2002 and came to pay Buckley a full-time living; by 2009 it had 1.8 million unique visitors a month. Its 2008 strip Loss, a sudden turn from jokes, was panned and became a long-running meme.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
