What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.

The site, in 2004

A Chinese online retailer founded by Liu Qiangdong, selling electronics and a wide range of other goods.

It began in 1998 selling magneto-optical products. Its name, Jingdong, joined parts of Liu's name and his then girlfriend's. It is now China's largest retailer by revenue.

In 2004: The shop went online this year, as jdlaser.com.

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.
