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 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.
Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.
The site, in 1999
A Microsoft site where people made online communities, each with its own web pages, images and message board.
It grew from the communities MSN itself ran from 1995, and users could make their own groups from summer 1999. Microsoft shut it on 21 February 2009 as it moved its services under the Windows Live name.
Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 1999 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 1999, then plays a short scene. Want MSN Groups in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
