What it does

On reveal: +3 Power to the next card you play.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 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 1995

The official website of ESPN, the American sports broadcaster, owned by ESPN Internet Ventures, a division of ESPN.

It began in April 1995 as ESPNET SportsZone, a joint project of ESPN and Starwave, and was drawing 120,000 users a day by the end of that year.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

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