What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 10 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Games cards roll the dice. Sometimes the dice roll you.

The site, in 2008

A Russian live-streaming site for video games and esports, based in Moscow.

Mikhail Mirchuk launched it on 6 March 2008, and it won a best esports portal award at the 2008 EYE.Foxconn festival. It later added donations, paid channel subscriptions and restreaming to other platforms.

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

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