What it does
On reveal: -3 Power to the strongest enemy card here.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 11 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 2008
A search site that gathered Japanese academic papers, theses and reports from university repositories into one place.
The name stood for Japanese Institutional Repositories Online. Japan's National Institute of Informatics ran it, with a beta in October 2008 and a full opening in April 2009. It closed in March 2019 and its search moved to IRDB.
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.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2008 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2008, then plays a short scene. Want JAIRO in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
