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 2000

Yandex's free web hosting service, which gave anyone a homepage at a name.narod.ru address with unlimited space.

It claimed more than 3 million sites by December 2010. Pages carried Yandex pop-up adverts by default, and in 2013 Yandex handed the whole service over to uCoz.

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.

Under Construction: Homepages, fan shrines and the GIFs that decorated them.
