What it does
Each round end: If this is your only card here, +1 Power to this card.
Each round end fires as every round finishes.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2008
Tom Siddell's science-fantasy webcomic about Antimony Carver, a new pupil at a vast, mysterious school at odds with the forest beyond it.
First posted on 4 April 2005, it updates three times a week and has run to eight printed volumes. It won several Web Cartoonists' Choice Awards, and in 2012 Siddell quit his job to draw it full time.
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.
