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 4 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2008

A video streaming platform for classical music, ballet and jazz.

Hervé Boissière and the pianist Pâris Mouratoglou launched it on 1 May 2008 with 200 shows. By early 2020 it had about 20,000 subscribers, the year the media arm of LVMH bought half of the company.

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.
